Please stop bringing up Yvette. Nobody in this thread has mentioned Yvette, Tone or Tariq. Most of the people in this thread are more educated about how politics work and are not followers of those frauds. Bringing them up derails the debate. Again, this is not only about reparations, it is his uncomfortably talking about Black issues as a whole. Plus I don’t think the dems would lose by adding reparations to the platform, especially if it is something like HR40. Nobody has stated this should be the main issues the dem nominee run on. But adding a commission to study reparations should be a minimum. Most people don’t support illegal immigrants being able to receive a national healthcare plan, but yet every dem candidate supports it. I already mention a bunch of other unpopular policies Bernie has supported throughout the years.Racial justice is a major component of Bernie's campaign AND yes, the working class is all in this together. Multiple things can be true at the same time.
We know for a fact, because @Mephistopheles went and found the receipts, that this specific "reparations 2020 or we won't vote" thing is funded by fukking white nationalist/supremacist organizations. I'm not talking about Ta Nehisi Coates or the historical fight for reparations. I'm talking about this very specific one thing, and you know what I mean. This Yvette Carnell thing that TLR loves.
White supremacists obviously don't want to pay you reparations. They obviously don't want you to vote, either. Gee, what could possibly be going on here?
I support reparations for slavery and Jim Crow and whatever historians will wind up calling the supposed post-Jim Crow era. I believe the Dem would lose in 2020 if this were part of their platform. NO ONE has challenged me on this.

Wonder what the next smear will be.
What's concerning to me is that I saw Bernie stans pushing this smear as much as MAGA shytheads. Same with the Pocahantas smear. It doesn't bode well for intra-progressive unity should Warren get the nomination. My hope is that these anti-Warren extremists just have an outsized voice and are vastly outnumbered by normal, progressive-minded people in Bernie's camp.Considering the range of controversies we've seen recently, from election fraud to international money laundering with some election interference on the side, this story shouldn't have gotten any traction at all![]()

You mean in some polls. He is behind Warren in other polls.Another week of leading da polls....
Biden Boyz.....2020......
That’s mostly a state level issueWe need to get these candidates to start talking about police reform and not just criminal justice reform.
HR40 is not reparations. It's a proposal to form a committee to study the issue. It's already been "cancelled" by ADOS.
And Bernie is NOT uncomfortable talking about black issues. This is simply a falsehood.
It is and isn’t. The federal government give out police grants, and there are Blue Lives Matters Bills at the federal level. One was passed by the house last yearThat’s mostly a state level issue
These nikkas fully jumped the shark and lost they damn minds![]()
