Well said! The "take" is often more important than the truth.

Also, something that barely gets a mention in these handwringing "white women are racist and voted for Trump as a whole" articles, is that Trump's support actually GREW in demographics such as Latino voters and Black male voters. A higher proportion of whom voted for Trump even AFTER his presidency and after all the BLM protests/riots. But that complicates the narrative of "POC saved America once again we should all be grovelingly grateful and self-flagellate if we are white because it's our fault, even if we voted for Biden, that other white people voted for Trump". And we can't have a complicated narrative can we.
