Amazon Describes Georgia Voter Law as Effort to ‘Disenfranchise Black People’

Amazon has joined the chorus of corporate leaders attacking Georgia’s election law. According to Amazon spokesperson and former Obama Press Secretary Jay Carney, “efforts to disenfranchise black people and other minorities continue to this day.”

“It has been fifty-six years since the Voting Rights Act became law, yet efforts to disenfranchise black people and other minorities continue to this day,” said Amazon spokesperson Jay Carney.

“The ability to vote is one of the most prized fundamental rights in American democracy, and Amazon supports policies that protect and expand those rights.”

Carney went on to praise “the Commonwealth of Virginia” for its Voting Rights Act of Virginia, which was approved by Virginia Governor Ralph Northam (D) on Wednesday.

“I am happy that the home state of our second headquarters, the Commonwealth of Virginia, is taking monumental and historic action to enhance voter protection,” Carney wrote. “This truly is a model that other states and Congress should follow to ensure all Americans can participate in free, fair, and secure elections.”

Carney then called out “other states,” who he alleges try to restrict voting rights, urging them to “follow Virginia’s leadership.”

The move has sparked outrage among left-wing activists, who suggest that members of the black community cannot figure out how to acquire a photo ID, among other bizarre assumptions.

On Wednesday, Delta Air Lines CEO Ed Bastian called Georgia’s new voting law “unacceptable” in a memo to employees. Coca-Cola CEO James Quincey called the recently-passed law “unacceptable,” “wrong,” and “a step backward.”

Meanwhile, Major League Baseball has reacted to Georgia’s voting reform law by announcing it will move its All-Star Game from Atlanta. .

President Joe Biden has also chimed in, calling the legislation “un-American” and “sick,” making “Jim Crow look like Jim Eagle.”

Even “black people” don’t believe that.

Racism is the last refuge of the totalitarian fascist.

Governor Northam knows a thing or two about the KKK, I believe.

None of these “press releases” seem to mention the extended voting hours in Fulton County.

So, Amazon, stop doing business here.

And pray tell, what specifically in the language of the law disenfranchises black people?

But not Hispanics apparently. Or the poor eastern European immigrants, now citizens who have built a community east of Stone Mountain/ Tucker?

Or poor whites?

Yeah, because the Party that gave us slavery, white supremacy, The KKK, segregation, Jim Crow laws, etc., etc., knows what’s best for black people.

The race card’s the most powerful card in the democrat deck... which is why democrats freaked when one in six black men - AND 40% of Hispanics - voted for President Trump.

How? Do they believe black people are too stupid to follow the rules and get an ID?

Hey wait... Can’t they use their COVID passport ID for a voter ID? Everyone is going to be required to get one of those!
