I wish somebody would ban this dap fishing clown.

Here's Bernie's progressive agenda

Progressive Agenda
  • Medicare for All
  • Universal Child Care
  • Universal Paid Family Leave
  • Green New Deal
  • $15 min wage
  • Free college
  • Reduce student loan debt
  • Break up big banks
  • Legalize weed
  • Abolish private prisons
  • End cash bail
  • "Major" police dep't reform
  • Gender pay equity
  • Affordable Housing Plan
  • Expand Social Security
  • Save unions
  • DREAM Act
  • Background checks & assault weapons ban
  • New infrastructure
  • Opposing "military industrial complex”

Most of these would disproportionally help blacks significantly more than any other people and yet here you are talking about not voting so that Trump can be president for 4 more years.

You're a simple minded impressionable idiot.

No it's not simple-minded.

Everybody else is at a positive. We are at a negative. Those things will just put people further ahead of us, just like what affirmative action and the Civil Rights Acts did. We don't need UNIVERSAL policies, we need specific policies. This is the problem with leftism in this country.

It's ran by overly privileged and spoiled White people who all of a sudden realize they ain't getting what they "deserve" from the system that overly benefits them and so they demand things as a collective of Whiteness. It's White needs and White wants, it's not Black needs and wants.

Then they come tell us, "Wouldn't you like free college?"

And when somebody says, "Yeah that's cool but I need stuff for me and my kind because we are different - we are owed a debt."

Then they respond, "DON'T YOU KNOW THERE ARE NEO-NAZIS!?"

If somebody owes you and you say what they owe and they give you something different, that's disrespect.

Would black people be better off without medicaid, medicare, social security and public education?

When these things were implemented would we had been better off if we all decided not to vote in support of these things because they were not specifically for black people and black people only?

I never mentioned ADOS in any of my comments in this thread.

You just started being pro black recently. You only have latched on to this movement to troll and get daps:

Not a Bernie bro but folks been misrepresenting him on reparations when all he's guilty of is raising valid questions about the specifics of reparations. Even on here for all the talk on ADOS and reparations, there's been very little talk on specifics. I'm not certain reparations should even be an agenda worth fighting for if you dont have any idea about what it is you demand. There at least needs to be some consensus on the subject. You cant demand something that hasn't been specified.
So what you're saying is, "politician, I want something." Politician replies, "what is it that you want?" You reply, "I dont know. Haven't given it much thought but I'll vote for you if you can promise to figure that out for me."
Get the fukk outta here :camby:

Bernie Sanders is a goddamn socialist. They’re for the redistribution of wealth.

The government gives tax subsidies to farmers, oil corporations polluting the environment, fukking people who donate jackets to goodwill... The process of paying reparations is something that is already built into the system, because the US federal gov’t gives billions in subsidies every year via tax credits to people for growing corn, or whatever.
What Are the Major Federal Government Subsidies?

It’s shocking that Bernie Sanders is against reparations. He’s not just “raising valid questions” he’s outright said “no” to the entire idea, which makes absolutely no sense from an alleged progressive socialist.

Compare subsidies to reparations brehs. That's like comparing a piece of pepperoni to a pizza.

“They’re only giving away billions every year, not trillions. It’s nothing alike. :mjgrin:

Really, you’re using a pizza analogy to talk about reparations? :stopitslime: what are you, 13?

Uh do you not understand the difference between a couple billion and trillions? His analogy actually UNDER exaggerates his point.


A better analogy would be the difference between giving someone a dollar and giving them a 1000 when you only have a couple grand to your self. Since the total GDP of the US is in the low trillions this is way more relatable, but his point still stands.

:snoop:
He was saying people asking for reparations have no concept of how reparations would actually be paid. As if the US government giving away large sums of money is somehow so far outside the realm of possibility that we shouldn't even entertain the idea.

I explained how it would be similar to tax subsidies.

Now, y'all are moving the goal posts. "Oh, the federal government giving away large sums of money... that's different. :mjgrin:"

Gtfoh :camby:

It's 15 billion dollars in subsidies... Every year. So there's been trillions in subsidies paid.
Reparations isn't going to be paid every year.
Fortune 500 companies hide over 2 trillion in taxes every year. Every. Year. If the government actually held corporations accountable as "people" like Citizen United said they are, then those companies would be paying those taxes, or would be in prison for tax evasion like Al Capone. Reparations could be paid out of that.

"NO we can't hold corporations financially accountable, then they'll leave the country :mjgrin:"
Newsflash, they already do, and Pepsi just automated its workers out of jobs. So allowing them to NOT pay taxes, obviously hasn't stopped them from leaving the country or killing the middle-class.

But of course, you guys think in fukking pizza analogies, so I don't imagine you'd have a sophisticated understanding of the domestic economy.
