The whole "team dark skin vs. team light skin" thing is stupid. How about "team all skin"?

I feel like white supremacist are too stupid to vote their own self interest too as an addendum to that because if they really were they would be voting with us.
their votes would resemble the black communities. But they don't. The republicans have cynically taken advantage of White supremacist and they are basically taking their values and beating them with it.
I get that the white supremacist sentiment often comes from the poorest and trashiest segments of the white community and those people trashy as they may be probably are getting shafted economically and probably do have actual grievances but the problem is the right has masterfully played them like an organ and convinced them to misdirect their anger onto us as a party. Quiet a bit of the rage that is real has been misdirected.
