There’s no rhetorical defense that will convince people who think that black people voting is an affront to democracy. It’s not an issue of how votes are reported. It’s normative belief in white supremacy that pretends to be a procedural objection to save face. https://twitter.com/nate_cohn/status/1329763845410349056

If it wasn’t the vote dumps, it would be something else. People who want to throw out thousands of black votes across several states is not about actual fraud. The fraud is black participation in the polity, they just need a way to say it that allows them to lie to themselves.

I’m not dunking on Nate, I’m just saying there is no technical solution here to the problem that these people do not accept that black people have the same right to participate in American democracy that they do.
