But don't say you hate Trump voters because they are about non-white people getting fucked, in the same paragraph you tell us you voted for Jill- I'm sorry, but getting to that calculations means in almost all cases "I can do this cuz I ain't one of the ones getting fucked." and for the last time I ain't talking about YOU.

Agreed. If you voted Stein, you prioritized something else above non-white people. Perhaps you did it unwittingly, or maybe you didn't even consider the impact of Trump on non-whites. But I'd say that's still prioritizing what you want above all else, and the proof of that is the fact that you didn't even consider the other priorities you were putting below yours.
