Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I’m not on some identity politics shit but this exact type of rhetoric I loathe to hear from other black people. There is no need to hoist our historical/economic/cultural wounds on to someone else. That’s vile and disrespectful to both the target of this as well as other black people.
I hate this shit, but to illustrate my point she’s (and other people like her black or otherwise) saying “we don’t want to get rid of the plantation, or even to heal other get away from this place, we just want to be the overseer. Maybe have a more ergonomic handle on whip too, and a better saddle while you’re at it”. It’s so fuckin’ cowardly and plainly ignorant.
Democrats don’t want a better world they want to be at the helm of the “make everything suck more” machine. They want to maintain the status quo but just want a slightly more advantageous position in it.
The average democrat is so confidently stupid and carry an equal parts cringe and utterly unearned sense of superiority
