3. I would probably agree with you under normal circumstances

but these are not normal circumstances. I think the "white woman" thing is being raised because there has been so much coverage of black men not supporting Harris enough. But in reality the number of black men hesitating to support Harris is dwarfed by the numbers of white women doing so. So black men feel like they are being targeted for blame while white women skate by with no criticism. It's impossible to have this kind of nuanced conversation without mentioning race, unfortunately.
