Social media has gone after Vogue for its cover photo of Vice-President elect Kamala Harris. Some of her fans say she looks like crap; all washed out and looking like she just got out of bed. Other fans say the photo doesn't give her the unearned respect they say she deserves for being half Black, half Indian with a laugh that's going to be around for four years.
And some say the photo simply sucks.
"What a mess up. [Editor-in-Chief] Anna Wintour must really not have Black friends and colleagues," author Wajahat Ali wrote.
"Kamala Harris is about as light skinned as women of color come and Vogue still f---ed up her lighting. WTF is this washed out mess of a cover?" Twitter user E. Vaughan complained and said they jumbled up her love for "sorority, suits, comfortable pants and chuck taylors . . . [E]xcept they couldn't decide whether she is going to a luxe French salon, the Senate floor, or taking a jog."

Kamala Harris jogs?
One user said the cover proves it's time for 71-year-old Wintour to step down as Vogue's editor and, while they're at it, find Vice President Pence and "lynch him."
"Folks who don't get why the Vogue cover of VP-elect Kamala Harris is bad are missing the point," activist Charlotte Clymer tweeted. "The pic itself isn't terrible as a pic. It's just far, far below the standards of Vogue. They didn't put thought into it. Like homework finished the morning it's due. Disrespectful."

"Vogue has Kamala Harris in some f---ing Converse. Someone needs to throw a cinderblock at Anna Wintour fr," another user said, "and while they're at it, lynch Pence."
However, the cover wasn’t hated by everyone, particularly not by those who would like to see Mike Pence lynched and who believe Harris will be taking over Biden's job in a few months.

President-elect, no joke, Joe Biden said that Harris "looks like a clean, intelligent woman of color. C'mon, man, she's one of a kind, I'm not kidding."
