Political Discussions for "Adults"

Really, then Kanye would get the nerdy white vote
‘cause what I’m seeing online are black folk of all ages
pissed that he would be taking votes away from Biden
(Actually, they’re pissed at the whole damn family trying to,
yet again, draw attention to themselves - and for “political”
reasons).

If that's how they really feel then they don't really believe in BLM, cause a vote for Trump or Biden is basically a vote for white supremacy. They should be advocating for Kanye even if the odds are against him.

Possible.

Also possible that Biden stays in the basement, limits interviews and PR events, and Kanye spends so much time with the media that the negativity around certain things he says will be focused on and amplified.

Giving Kanye the benefit of the doubt that he's actually be serious about running (which I'm not willing to give yet), the media, both right and left, will work to twist what he says into the worst possible interpretation. The more outrageous, the better.

Basically it was an abject failure, though it's not surprising some people refuse to see it as such.

Then I wasn't talking about you.

The thing happened on accident. The protesters never wanted wanted there to be an autonomous zone in the first place so it really had no goal to fail.

Any black person who votes against Kanye is a disgusting sellout.

Why would anybody want to vote for Kanye?

He’s vibrant. And shiny. A man like that can get things done.

Truth right there son

Yeah, because all black folks are automatons that don’t exhibit nuance in their thinking.

The Shiny Object Syndrome got us where we are today.
