The issue here is that white Americans in the center/ left cannot win elections w/out a coalition with the primary victims of systematic racism. They resent this dependency so they resort to attacking the victims (Black folks) or allying with the perpetrators of the violence

Democrats can't win without 90% black voters and high turnout. Centrist democrats respond by blaming #Wokeness which is code for "The Black's have too much power" thus thier fantasy of holding on to an increasingly small and disinterested share of "working class whites"

The Very Online Far Left has been even more blatant. They openly court Insurrectionists & Bigots under the guise that class unity can build a workers coalition and resent when black people point out that these groups do not WANT a coalition that includes full black participation

But since many of these people talk about Free Healthcare and stopping American imperialism white centrists in the Democratic Party and the press continue to mischaracterize them as "Liberals or progressives". Black folks have pointed this out for years
