What are people going at Yang for when he's verbally said he's been down for ADOS getting reparations?

he right, Biden got in but on those same ballots around the country where they voted against Trump because he was crazy they still voted for the Republican Senator to keep them in power
Joe Biden 2020 got the most votes in US Presidential History
second most in history goes to Donald Trump 2020

When conservatives are supporting Yang you have a problem
Yang has been doing this wink and nod for a long time. That’s why he had so much white libertarian support. I see through his bullshyt. Peep the dates.
He’s not talking to us.

He is all the way correct, especially from a strategic standpoint.
1. Policing cultural issues- The democrat approach to racism etc is symbolic gesture and pander. Granted you can't end racism, you can punish it tho. Which needs to be elevated above simply acknowkedging it exists in various institutions. The LGBT has a wealthy caucus and have purchased great strides with thier strategy, as these are white people prioritizing "black lgbt aggregation too" that movement.
2. Dems inching for concrete wage law, jobs creation, and healthcare are easy wins. Not sure how easy with how the house/senate look... and the high courts too.
3. If they were smart they would spend the left over campain money on these state candidates to win seats. Actually Keep the fukking momentum of voting buzz and point the attention to state and city officials.

Finally got a chance to listen to the clip, and he's absolutely correct. Bernie said the same thing when Trump got in lamenting Democrats inability to speak to white working class voters. Truth be told, it's similar to what you're seeing with ADOS and Black men who voted for Trump as they're primarily looking at things from an economic perspective. It's easy to label the Black men who voted for Trump, c00ns. The inconvenient truth is, Republicans have done a much better job in recent years than Democrats when it comes to delivering a message focused on your pockets. We know it's largely bullsh!t and those coal jobs ain't coming back, but at least they talk a good game. More than what Democrats have said in recent years. There was a time I'd associate Democrat with unions, and I still do. However, those hard hats on burly white men aren't exclusive to Democrats any longer. I'm Black and when I think Democrat, women and gays come to mind more than anything else.
Another thing, beyond Democrats inability to speak to working class voters, they've also done a poor job in fighting mischaracterizations from the GOP. Republicans got working class white people voting against their own interests. They vote Red thinking they've got to offset the interests of the coastal elites, Hollywood, intellectuals, the music industry, and lately professional Black athletes. The GOP really brainwashed these fools, and Democrats have done nothing to convince those voters otherwise. Like Yang said, if they don't address this, and it's going to harm them in further elections. Trump was a symptom of what's wrong in this country, and it's not exclusively racism.

As more progressives get elected the party will shift from elites to the party of the people

But see? Stop doing that. It isn't fascism for a lot of them. It's about their actual livelihoods falling apart. Many of these blue collar, non educated white people don't even know how to properly define all these 'isms'. You can't ignore 70M people.

@*DalMem*You imbecile. I'm not hispanic just because my handle is Spanish you retard. Seems like you're the 'salty hispanic' since you're out here caping for illegals receiving billions in tax dollars that should be going to the Black community. Keep telling on yourself clown.

It's usually the posters with low negative rep with some common sense. It's the lames like you with almost 40K posts over 8 years that are dumb as shyt. How do you even have time to lead a meaningful life if you spend all your time posting on the Coli. CLOWN.
They are complicit in fascism whether they realize it or not. It doesn't matter if they understand what fascism is. Most fascist probably don't realize their fascist because they're that fukking ignorant.
If you look at the white vote going back to the 60s & 70s , the majority of whites have always been against progressive ideas because it ultimately meant the inclusion of black people. They are directly responsible for their own predicament. For decades they've supported politicians that have busted up their union jobs and polluted their environment. How else do you explain their constant propensity to be duped?

That's the approach that got Bernie killed by black voters 
Only for Biden and Kamala to spin the exact same "rising tide" rhetoric after securing the nomination when pressed about black issues............. except with less economic tangibles

You do realize that minus that fascism nonsense you started your reply with-- those same criticisms can be levied against the black community when we vote Democrat. I don't even need to delve in to the minutiae of what you wrote. What you just described is a mirror of OUR experiences dealing with politicians.
