I’ve changed over the last couple of years.

-I still believe in Universal healthcare
-Universal Education
-And a safety net for the lower part of our Society.

* So by that nature you can say I’m a democrat

HOWEVER

Over the last couple of years I have become annoyed with Democrats and their need to focus on identity politics.

-I hate the phrase P.O.C ( people of Color), NO I’M NOT A P.O.C I’m black and No, I don’t have similar issues with Indian Americans, Chinese Americans, Latino Americans, etc we as black people have our own separate issues that OUR politicians need to focus on.

-Im annoyed that if you’re not dancing in the rainbow with a speedo you must be a misogynist

- The Democrats embrace of hyper feminism is annoying as fukk. I’m all for women (especially black women) getting Degrees, advance degrees, careers, management positions, etc But it’s gone far past that. Look what happened to Morgan Freeman, Just a basic accusation and now we’re fukked.




:francis: I maybe looking somewhere else in the future.

Progressive. Democratic socialist for the most part.

Universal healthcare(40,000 die in this country every year because they can't afford it)

Free public college(too expensive, student loan debt is a bubble soon to burst)

Higher taxes on the rich. Sure it says 39% on paper but anyone making that much to hit that bracket is paying significantly less thanks to loopholes

A complete ban on corporations donating to politicians. Make lobbying (legalized bribery) illegal

Infrastructure spending (would create jobs and this country is falling apart, see Bridges and NYC subway as good examples)

Stricter environmental laws

Higher minimum wage (should be raised, then pegged to inflation to Keep up)

End the wars and close most of the hundreds of military vbases we have around the world

End the duopoly to party system. Easier said then done


On the flip side though Im More moderate on immigration policy in regards to illegal immigrants.

I’ve become more moderate when it comes to policy.

I use to consider myself a full blown liberal, but I’m not a fan of identity politics perpetuated by the left.

I’m essentially a left leaning-centrist at this point.

The far left is just as crazy as the far right. fukkem both.

I sympathize with and understand the necessity of electoral politics in the sense that at times it’s better to vote to absolutely reduce as much harm to others as humanly possible.
So the whole “both sides are the same!” shyt is grossly simplified despite me not being into voting.

I think hierarchy is bullshyt and that everything needs to be as horizontal as possible for us to be as equal as a society as possible. Direct Democracy in the work place. Worker owned Co-Ops, learning and health centers would all be ran by the people on a block by block basis but with a sense of community in that the needs of all would be met materially and emotionally.

Prisons and Cops can eat a dikk. Landlords can bounce. There is no private property (exp: Apple Store) but respects to personal property. And borders are not only not necessary but a to be dissvoled.

Anarchism is essentially order. Not the bullshyt that white kids obsessed with illegalism or the Libertarians masquerading as “Anti-State” when they really just want private property owners to rule the land.

Under my ideals of Anarchism, you would have a greater sense of purpose, you’d have control of your life back based on how it is seen fit. not how much capital you can accumulate and use to degrade and possibly degrade others.

Democrat, a little right of center. I'm all for fairness and "equality" but my heart doesn't bleed for anyone. I'm pro choice, anti-feminism, pro gun and anti-illegal immigration. I don't like this new ultra liberal sentiment that has taken over the democratic party as of late and obviously I don't think they're perfect, but you'll never catch me talking that "blame on both sides" / "democrats are NOT our friends" bullshyt.

As far as WHY? Well, other parties really have nothing to offer me; it's that simple. In the last election I actually strongly favored Gary Johnson policy-wise, but he never stood a chance in hell.

I'm now an independant.... Democratic party needs to go further left and purge the weak elements and corrupt people in their party... I cannot in good faith ever vote for the democrats after them doing everything in control to get hillary elected and she was a horrible candidate... They take black voters for granted and treated us like a voting bloc but NEVER coming through for us law wise when it counts so I walked away from the bullshyt party... fukk em'...:manny:

The political test has me leaning left libertarian most of the time. I can't identify with what the Democratic Party is becoming with their identity politics. I can't identify with Republicans and their good ole boy mindset. Republicans would get more votes from other groups if they stop trying to push religion into social policy (i.e. abortion which I'm against but government shouldn't regulate, gay marriage, drug laws).

I think left libertarian fits me because I believe in some degree of socialism such as schools and roads, but I am for the most part fiscally conservative. Socially do whatever you want as long as it doesn't infringe on me. Oh and I'm pro 2nd Amendment also. Growing up I used to be Democratic but that was when I thought Dems = good and Republicans = Bad which you can't view things as black and white now.

When I win I bring we with me
Closest as I'd give a label is maybe "pan african" / "black nationalist":jbhmm:

:what:



...or you could say fukk the dems & republicans organise nationwide on the city, county, & state level ....then for (inter)national issues sell your vote to whoever pays the piper.

I can't respect black republicans as a political group...:snoop:
1. They bring nothing to the table that I can't get from garden variety black nationalism in spades.
2. They are like black nationalist sans the nationalism
3. They refuse to call out the pervasive external enemy & the worldwide system employed by that enemy.
4. They are obviously intellectually stuck in the worldview of the two party scheme.(you don't need to speak to dems or repubs till national politics)
(If neither coke nor Pepsi is good for me i'm going to drink tea ...or water. I'm not going to swap back and forth between two subpar choices)

If you hate the dems(no problem with that:whoa:) and as a result(in protest) choose to go republican.:stopitslime:
That tells me all I need to know about your small worldview and how mentally trapped you are..:camby:



3. Most importantly my political position is that we need to finish correcting our cumulative historical projection.
End transatlantic slave trade (Done)


End the formal institution of chattel slavery(Done)

  • -I look at the modern prison complex as it's own demon*

End overarching wide scale political division of African people(Done)

  • -current tribalism levels doesn't trump the current pan-african / African Union / regional, continental, & diasporic integration consciousness and thrust

End governmental colonialism(Done)


End academic(mental/spiritual) colonialism(initiated)
  • -Reconstruction of an African worldview(definitions of reality, values, principles, etc)

End economic colonialism(initiated)

  • Have capacity to fund all political actions
  • Have the capacity to extract, process, and manufacture all the goods Africa needs with the resources in the ground
  • Have the capacity to move all goods around the continent and trade internally.
  • Be independent of all non-African owned NGOs, production, and/or extraction corporations only leaving foreign(sellers, traders, and tourist).
  • Have a resource depot for surpluses in the Caribbean, Seychelles/Mauritius, and Kerkennah Islands.(Sale surpluses after domestic needs met)
  • Diaspora wholesale purchase surplus and use global sale of goods from depots as base financial revenue generator to maintain economic independence/sovereignty of global African peoples.

End military deficiency(initiated)

  • - gain policing, military powers, and the ability to enforce law. Grow capacity to deal with the total array of threats land, sea, air, cyber, biological, etc.







:jbhmm:In street terms
Me building in a cac city is hustling backwards :to:

....in terms of governance & economics. My employment opportunities needs to go to "my people", my tax funds need to go to "my people" & my political donations needs to go to making sure "my peoples" political candidates(and their policy maneuvers) are not beholden to "alien" financiers.

Far left. And I mean actual, proper far left, not the pussified battyman agenda shyt we have today masquerading as 'leftism'. Radical left, not liberal left; I'm the kind of leftist who declares, if you don't like what we're doing, we have two special tools to remedy your displeasure: the guillotine or the gulag. Make your choice :demonic:

Left...especially when it comes to economics.
I don't truly want state control of industries. But a Universal Standard of Living needs to be established in this country (USA). We've got too much money and too much talent and too many people in poverty for the level of resources we have in this country. Military should be defunded by 10% (in non-discretionary spending aka the money we don't HAVE to spend to keep the military operational). Public University should be free for African-Americans, the student loan debt should be wiped out and taxes should go up across the board by at least 2%. Teachers should make 6 figures.

Socially even further left, I don't give two shyts about what gender you are or whatever...go get married and get the same tax breaks as everyone else...adopt some kids if you wanna...I ain't about to take care of them. Weed would be fully decriminalized and taxed at 12%
