    it’s inherently bad when people like tulsi gabbard, bernie & yang literally by ALL means necessary will not progress because they won’t abide by the “rules” by just taking lobbyists money so they move like puppets through their terms, that’s not okay

    Does being black entitle you to speak for all black people? BLM is overwhelming supported by POC as are Democrats, so the answer is no - you don't. You can't act as if you're speaking for all black people with views the majority of black people don't share and then say "don't speak for us".

    I might not be black but my brother-in-law/best friend is and I've personally seen the racial discrimination he faces on the daily enough to know it's a problem that needs addressing, an issue that BLM is bringing light to. I'm sure as a black man you've dealt with that discrimination, and I'm appalled you have an issue with BLM which has overwhelmingly helped bring light to the massive issues POC face in our society.

    counter point: or people didn’t like them enough to vote for them. I get it’s easy to blame the big scary lobbyists & money in politics but like...it comes down to votes.

    still not convinced this is really Jet. Imma need someone to confirm pls.

    The problem with the social media age is people think their fringe politics are way more popular than they actually are because of their small circle injecting it into their feeds - then complain when the popular choice wins and claim it's rigged and everyone they don't support sucks. I'm a progressive, but I'm also pragmatic and Joe Biden is the most progressive presidential candidate ever.

    Jet is so woke right now, I love it. And its happening everywhere. Racists can't stand it. I'm against an all black party because I think its decisive. However to say it shouldn't happen because it will help Trump is irrelevant. They shouldn't do it why? I don't think some of you realize you're suggesting all black people's duty is to vote for a guy who has hurt the black community. Its sick

    Trump has hurt the Black community, repeatedly. Both before and during his presidency.

    Yeah, young people in particular get lost in their twitter bubbles & don’t realize their views aren’t extremely popular across the country. I say it all the time: lefties are horrible at electoral politics. That’s why they have no representation in government.

    It doesn't help that the current parties are: Fascist vs. Everything left of Fascist. Once the democrats completely eviscerate the republicans they need to break off into two parties tbh.

    a report came out that 85% of people who wear masks are still 100% susceptible to covid. masks do not cure covid..and they prevent in about as much as sneezing into your elbow in a room full of people does

    biden says he’ll make it 100% mandatory to wear masks nationwide

    facebook, google/youtube & twitter are teaming up to censor this country, already blocking stories like the new york post story talking about hunter biden. point black blocking all links to the article.

    MAYBE it’s just me, but i try to look at all of this in 3rd person and it’s pretty scary the path we’re headed to but we listen to whatever the news tells us, they put these horse blinders on us like “okay i can see this, but u can’t see that, definitely not that” and y’all are just signing off on it ONLY because the victim is trump but it’s way bigger than trump

    i see some “wokers” talking about an upcoming NWO but the thing is, we’re already living in it, it started

    so when i look at trump, and i see all these mega giants ganging up on him, it speaks volumes for me and to stray away from apparently “what i’m supposed to believe in” is honestly beautiful coming from someone who would’ve been liking enigma posts in here maybe last year! it’s time to wake up, honestly

    This OR moderate Dems take over the Republican Party & the AOCs take over the Democratic Party.

    “We don’t believe you, you need more people” *hov laugh*
