all those tweets and still nothing.

its like people want bernie to be chomsky. he aint. and he isnt going to be. and if by chance he was Chom. he would only have the black vote a few whites. lets keep it 1 zillion. white folks in general are racist to some level. and they are apart of white supremacy. So never expect them to ride with a candidate thats out right calling them out for their racism. aint going to happen. like NEVER going to happen until they become a huge minority in this country. So since we know thats the case what can we do in the mean time? Get some tuition free college, universal healthcare, a bunch of infrastructure jobs and jobs related to those jobs, get the old heads some more social security doe, let a bunch of these drug offenders out of jail and put them in rehab facilities. (thats stopping modern day slavery black people, just in case you didnt know that.) bring some of our jobs back from overseas and raise minimum wage to a livable wage. thats what we can do in the mean time.

People with their all or non approach is a choice. fine by me. but say that in one tweet. not 40.

They refuse to understand it. Whether through delusion or ignorance. I am a socialist telling you that.

Most minorities are reactionary in thought process :manny:
it's just human nature
democrats are just too obsessed with identity politics and monoliths to realize it :francis:

that's why i hate the democratic party/far leftists, even though i agree with a lot of their ideologies

Do not connect democractic party with far left of even leftists. They are "progressives" who are financially conservative

Even far leftists get stupid.

Its why Lenin hated liberals. They talk about wanting to deal with racial injustice while wanting to maintain the corporate hegemony

You can't have both.

If you are going to deal with the racial issues, you need to upend the machinery that has implemented racial inequality since inception.

For 200 years, elites have used racism as a means of keeping classes divided.

For example:

The Republicans have used it to maintain the southern strategy principle and ignite this fear that "blacks and others" will take out jobs while simultaneous enabling corporations to pick the average whites wallet

The Democrats have used it to maintain corporate hegemony by redirecting the reasonable fear that minorities have of racism and not call out the machinery behind it.



Both are disingenuous institutional monsters.

What makes it worse is that, by law, they are essentially private clubs. They do as they please and answer to whomever they please
