Most Americans, not just blacks are low information voters.

How is advocating for Bernie any different from advocating for Obama before Iowa? At that time, Hilary have overwhelming support in the black community because most black people either didn't know Obama or did not think Obama was viable.

We need to dispel with the notion that these kinds of articles are not written by Hillary plants.

We need to dispel with notion that these plants don't know what they are doing. They know exactly what they are doing.

I posted the video to provide his actual words on my statement concerning class > race.

You chose to interrupt it as a "takedown" of Bernie due to a combination of your poor reading comprehension and eagerness to defend Bernie. So once again, critiquing a candiadate doesn't mean you can't vote for him, which also is explained in the video which you admittedly failed to watch initially.

Don't blame my reading comprehension for your omission. You didn't say shyt about "his actual words on your statement." You just gave your statement, gave a description of what Coates did, and posted a video. :camby:

Frankly, I'm not even that eager to "defend" Bernie seeing as how I'm a center-right voter. But even the premise of the OP is kind of dumb. From my experience, using terms like "mansplaining" or "Berniesplaining" is a convenient way of avoiding points brought up by the other side. You should disagree with arguments because you think they're wrong, not because you have an inherent bias toward the subject matter being addressed. The fact that black people are justifiably cynical about politicians doesn't really address the merits of voting for Clinton versus Sanders, or the Democratic nominee versus the Republican nominee.

Another defense of neoliberal politics using the language of social justice. Gotta love it. The TFA-ication of left politics is the future

Yeah some Bernie fans are overbearing talking about him marching with MLK. I see no difference between that and the rhetoric from Hiliary people that black folk monolithically love Hillary and Bill, that any discussion of how the Clintons have made a career out of fukking black ppl over is irrelevant because she's up with black voters. Both paternalistic arguments, both imply owed loyalty, both imply a hive mind.

Good read. I'm for Bernie but it's hilarious to see online all of these white people trying to speak on why blacks are not just jumping on his dikk. I've seen reasons from poor low information blacks don't have the internet to the Clinton's own us and our votes :russ:

I mean it really shows you what America thinks of us. Even the progressive whites don't really give a fukk.

It's not a black thing though, Liberals never understand why people don't just jump on their causes when they appear to be the most beneficial. It's the same way progressives talk about poor white people voting republican.

Wow! I'm sick and tired of the behavior of Sanders supporters between the misogyny and now this!
