While I always thought it was ridiculous, in fairness there were a lot of protest votes thrown away on "candidates" like f--king Harambe in 2016, so I can sort of get why some people would bedwet over this. But ultimately it was clear Kanye had zero appeal to black voters or the kinds of leftists who might protest vote because they were upset Bernie didn't win (most of whom were more satisfied with Biden than Hillary anyway). It was actually kinda racist to assume Kanye would automatically win a lot of the black vote as some did here; I recall some polls showed he was actually LEAST popular among black voters.
