What we not going to do is act like the issues don’t go hand in hand.
Tethers actively campaigned to BLOCK ADOS/FBA from getting said tangibles so of course they’re catching smoke now.
The jig is up.

I was talking about both sides and the subgroups but I’ve only heard cult accusations in reference to ADOS.
Reparations are not coming and nikkas know it
nikkas love talking and then it’s back to that 9 to 5 complaining about they day and everything else

Because most of it was a psy-op funded by republican dark money to get niccas to stay home. Trump lost so the desire to ferment that shyt went along with him.

It would have made sense to pressure Obama and his ADOS wife with reparations.
A lot of people think that reparations can be made with Trump in the WH. The same Trump that is trying to erase slavery from history textbooks. Without slavery in those books, the whole repararions issue disappears.
The John Conyers Reparations legislation had been stuck in the House Committee stage since 1989, and could have been strenuously advocated for by the community, the Congressional Black Caucus and civil rights groups like the NAACP and National Urban League, when a Black-led administration was in power, and for the two years that Democrats controlled Congress.
Reparations could have gotten the community push 2008 - 2016 that Health Care reform and Gay Marriage received from its advocates.
The online-based push for it did not happen until Trump of all people ran for, and took office in 2016. Amazing.

Not wrong.
Randall Robinson was all over television and radio in 2001 talking about his reparations book, "The Debt."
That book could have been at the forefront of Black support for the Obama candidacies and platforms in both 2008 and 2012.
Instead folks waited for the racial savior Donald Trump to take office to make the case for reparations.
You doing too much. Biden was never popular. People didn't want a dictatorship. That is all.
Let's stop pretending we didn't see an attempt at a coup in America.

It went from Pass HR 40 to Edit HR 40 to HR 40 is worthless and all the while, they snub their nose as Black voters for sticking with the Democrats when they're not conceding our demands/reparations.The John Conyers Reparations legislation had been stuck in the House Committee stage since 1989, and could have been strenuously advocated for by the community, the Congressional Black Caucus and civil rights groups like the NAACP and National Urban League, when a Black-led administration was in power, and for the two years that Democrats controlled Congress.

The Dems deserve a ton of smoke but... which demand are you talking about???
The shyt shifted 3 times in like 2 years.

Its because a lot of people don't care about John Conyers and his legacy, nor care about reparations like that. They are very reaction-based and only follow orders of formally uneducated people that don't study history.
When I hear "reparations reparations!!" and not hear John Conyers name, I just go
at the disrespect of the lack of mentioning his name. But when you hear the people who try to scream about "REAPRATIONS!" In the Donald Trump administration, they really *don't* be fighting that hard, unless someone with clout says the same thing, first.

You need to make a thread about this. On him and John Conyers.

Most of the loudest ones were on that "cut the check" shyt and woke up.
