Political Discussions for "Adults"

For some reason black people still don’t understand that economic liberation is the answer. It’s incredible to me that blacks want to maintain the status quo. It’s like some kind of self-hatred master worship held over from slavery.

at some point maybe you have to blame the candidate a little, when Bernie talks about race it always sounds tagged on

how that translates into voting for Biden, I just dunno

I know how Bernie thinks. Health care, housing, livable wages - real tangible stuff that any sane person can see is the real liberation. But you just can’t take the Vermont out of the boy. Blacks need to see you flopping around in church. It’s so bizarre that it’s hard to grasp. Obama’s boy knows all about church flopping. And once Beto, Klobuchar, and Pete made those endorsements- we all know there’s four centuries of reasons why they’re afraid not to fall in line.

I think it would help if Warren dropped out at least, not even asking for an endorsement, time to get as real as the centrists and get behind one candidate

She’s a party line robot. They want her in; she’ll stay in.

lol. When revolutionary fervor turns racist.

African-Americans aren't going to vote for someone who says that anyone making over 20k a year is going see their taxes go up. That being said, they aren't voting for Biden because of policy: they just don't find him offensive enough to not vote for.

I don't think most black people are politically engaged enough to go believing in any kind of sweeping change. The government serves white folk, not them.

Most people in general are hardly even paying attention to this ****. Everyone loves democracy till they find out who the voters are.

Biden is one of the most generic, limp-dicked presidential candidates we could ever get. If he actually won he wouldn't be the worst president to have I guess, the problem is that he's not going to ****ing win against Trump. The areas he's doing best in are the areas Trump dominates in a general election. I don't understand how the Dems don't see this. They're going all-in on this generic ass mother****er that will get stomped and then we'll have 4 more years of Trump. I'm salty
