So you push the party in the direction that you want. You don't sit out or entertain open racists :dahell:
The Democratic Party is not redeemable, you can’t “push” the party anywhere. :skip:

You don't sit out or entertain open racists
Both parties are openly racists. That’s what you don’t understand or disagree with. Both parties just gave a standing ovation to Benjamin Netanyahu a war criminal and 21st century hitler who is a right-wing extremist.

Candidates like Nina Turner, Gary Chambers, Hill Harper. Why are they not being supported in predominately black districts? Why is Tariq not signal boosting their messages? Reparations are a legislative issue.
This doesn’t make any sense. Why would Tariq waste time “signal boosting” every black politician (with no following or momentum) that supports reparations, when the party they’re running under doesn’t? The democrats do not support reparations. They are against the very idea of it. They have said it time and time again including the most recent nominee who laughed at the very idea of it.

Most importantly, why is it always about what someone is not doing? He just had a rally for reparations in DC, he advocated for reparations in California, he puts out bro-black content, regularly attends protests and puts up actual money for grass roots movements and calls out white supremacy daily. Y’all just look for reasons to be mad because you’re offended by the “tether” label.
Before you ask about what Tariq is doing for politicians (in a state he doesn’t even live) in ask yourself are you doing more than him in your own local government?

has anyone answered the OP yet :patrice:
It was answered on the first page.

1. He hasn’t stopped advocating for reparations.
2. The very premise of the question doesn’t make sense. We have 2 parties. One party gets 90% of the black vote and has been doing so for decades. The other doesn’t. Common sense shouldn’t tell you which party we should expect to support reparations…

He does not advocate for damn reparations anymore.


Especially from the people in power


In that video he is roasting Africans for trying to grift off of reparations.

The candidates I listed did have momentum :dahell: . Let's stick with Nina Turner since that is who i'm most intimately familiar with. She was actually involved in a runoff AND ALMOST WON her first go at it. Against another Black woman, mind you. But the difference is that Nina's platform was un-apologetically black and class centered. Pulled no punches about reparations. But when it came time to vote again, black folks didn't show up. And those that did overwhelmingly supported her opponent, an establishment democrat. Yes, I think Tariq or others in the black media apparatus highlighting Nina could have been the difference maker. Instead of constantly worrying about what efike, abimbola and the rest of the so-called "tethers" are up to. Give me a break.

I still believe in delineation.

While Maga plots your ass Delineated to El Salvador or even Haiti :pachaha:

amazing how koons believe they have a special relationship with Nazi's, a phenomena for PhD students to study..

I bet you feel real proud inside when cacs pat you on the head and say you're a different negro, not like the others huh :picard:

Whats also shocking and quite revealing about the public school system in the US is the belief amongst some Black Americans that Reparations is their idea alone..they have no idea Carribean nations and even India had long demanded reparations..this idea that everything originated in America is why you have people bent out of shape thinking they own every idea.. :gucci:

Meanwhile the crackers that are currently in power are making cuts to things like pell grants as we type (60-70% of black students utilize these to afford school). But you've somehow made the leap that the government is open to reparations. Just completely unserious. Homeless encampments getting swept up all over (40% of the u.s. homeless population is black :mjlol:) and thanks to Johnson v. City of Grants Pass it's essentially illegal to even be unhoused in parts of the country. Don't have to be a clairvoyant to see the play there. Even if you say we should demand more from those in office I don't understand the logic of aligning with people who want to do the complete opposite :dead:

Now, I just asked why Tariq (since he is the topic of this thread) hasn't lent his support to serious contenders like Nina Turner and was given some nebulous reply about a rally and "grassroot" donations. What does that mean? If there are only so many congressional candidates with a platform that remotely resembles hers, it shouldn't take up too much of his time to ask his listeners to perhaps donate, or for those in her precincts to go vote. If reparations truly is the non-negotiable that some of you pretend that it is.

I literally said both parties are against reparations, are you sure you’re responding to the same person? :dahell:

You’re not making sense, I’ll ask one more time. You want Tariq Nasheed to campaign for a democrat politician because they support reparations, when the actual party is anti-reparations. That logic makes sense to you? :gucci:

Why would he advocate for reparations from the party that didn’t get the black vote instead of the party that does? Why do y’all never answer that question?

great. did the poster you quoted (did not quote) post any proof, videos etc?

2. The very premise of the question doesn’t make sense. We have 2 parties. One party gets 90% of the black vote and has been doing so for decades. The other doesn’t. Common sense shouldn’t tell you which party we should expect to support reparations…

you have to ask questions sometimes on here ..

what has expectation of.a party got to do with advocacy.

the question is advocacy, with we presume a case that applies generally and is not tied to the existence of any one political party.

the argument for reparations stands distinct and is valid irrespective of which "enemy" is leading the country.

if the dems vanished tomorrow the case for reparations would not vanish with them would it :mjlol:

moreover advocacy is often required to a greater degree in more hostile circumstances. to wit advocacy for equality being pressing during slavery, reconstruction and civil rights. in order words hostility often intensifies the need to fight back.

in other words fukk party politics. that has nothing to do with the need to press the case for reparations.

TL;DR get your head out of the butt of retarded two party politically based arguments.
