So ... why is it taboo to criticize a black president and black tribal political leaders ?

We don't have any problem criticizing white leaders, Islamic leaders, Jewish leaders, Asian leaders ...... why do black leaders get an exemption ? Why is it considered racist to criticize Obama ?

Have we been brainwashed in some way ?

In your case it was because you were using racial slurs.

So what's the politically correct way to say Uncle Tom?

Can you give me a recommended way of expressing that?

I don't understand the question. It's like asking me the correct way to call him a ******.

My question was why is your assessment of his subservience racially based.

Because of his obvious influence with black voters?

In the 2020 primary .... Bernie got the most votes in the early highly white states of Iowa and NH. Got the most latino vote in Nevada.

Then we went to S. Carolina and he got hammered by black voters.

Pretty obvious that the race went down along lines of racial division. Why do black Democratic voters in S Carolina have a completely different set of priorities than their Democratic peers in other parts of the country?


it was like four minutes

That's 1/1057.5th a Game of Thrones.


This is why they give Uncle Tom $500,000+ for a 30 minute speech.

These people don't give a damn if Trump is elected. They knew that Bernie would use the bully pulpit if elected. They saw how he could whip a crowd of 50,000 young people into a frenzy.

If we have Medicare for All, who is going to buy the advertising space that keeps corporate media paid?

I think everyone appreciates your efforts to constrain your postings to the proper thread. Well done.

Is Uncle Tom expelled to the Slacker Community until he decides to be subservient to your "climate" agenda?


The old and the weak and the Uncle Toms. Did you ever watch any Sergio Leone as a kid?

His Martha's Vineyard mansion is suitable to house 20-30 people and a big vegetable garden. Lots of people would love to live there. If he and Michelle want to stay, that's fine with me.

I don't personally have a punitive agenda. I'm content to leave karma to God.

fyi - my agenda is best labeled as survival. Climate is exemplary of that, but only a subset.

Mandami ran a very good campaign and is generally sharp and engaging in a way Sanders is not imo. Not sure if it would matter nationally or even statewide, but he’s been impressive since he started his campaign and into his term.

Agreed.

Idk if you knew this but land doesn’t vote

"One acre, one vote!"


by Nut Nut

Imagine the irony leading into the South Carolina primary in 2016. You have Bernie Sanders who was arrested in the early 60's during a Civil Rights protest on behalf of black tenants and Hillary Clinton who was campaigning for the guy (Goldwater) whose claim to fame was opposing civil rights legislation at the same time. Then you have a corrupt mf like John Lewis who made his b

You can laugh at it .... but you don't disagree.


The Democratic establishment doesn't care about winning.

No entity intent on winning would provide so much leverage to a bloc of voters in S. Carolina which delivers zero electoral votes in the general election.

They would quite simply rally around the candidate who performs best in the swing states.

You want to know why we get stuck with Trump .... it's all about a Democratic Party which is just an arm of big money.


by Nut Nut

I would argue that Obama is a slave. A very well-paid slave who jumps through the hoops his money master's demand. Sure .... we'll give you $500,000 for 30 minutes. But when the time comes, you make sure that one of ours (Tom Perez) is running the DNC instead of one of theirs (Keith Ellison). You make sure that the black community knows that you think Bernie's policies are too

"Black vote firewall...." LOL LOL LOL

Amazin'!

Tiger Woods didn't run for political office and is not a political influencer. Not in any way comparable to Obama. He's also a mixture of race / ethnic heritage.

'Unlike Obama, Woods is a mixture of race...' LOL LOL LOL

Who new?


This all has its roots in the outcome of WW2 which led to the baby boom.

My dominant generational cohort. The "born on third base, think we hit a triple" generation. The generation that begat environmental ruin.

Looking at those commas in our 401k statements and telling ourselves a story of our virtue while history will reveal us as the villains. The generation that embraced consumption and begat environmental ruin.
