POLITICS AS CELEBRITY

I knew this crap was coming sooner or later. People are suffering & these mafuckas out here doing sorority photo shoots. Miss me w/ this bullshit. More of the same. Stop treating politics like its a damn elite club & path 2

KILLMONGER'S DIARY

Fuck Africa. I'm American. Any African mad at dem words, kick rocks. Don't like it, jump ship. Back 2 Africa. Need receipts. How much yall made off us? U think we didn't know? Mafucka, we the vibranium that made Africa pop. We werent stole. We were sold.

Yall sold us. Then yall hv the audacity 2 come here, pass as American niggas, lecture us about racism & white supremacy, police our emotion, critique our anger & then U have the bravado 2 lecture us about fighting when yall let Europeans come & take yall shit? Fuck out of here.

Immigrants by nature unpatriotic. When times got tough, you left your country. You abdicated the responsibility to make your country better. You didn't fight. You ran. We didn't leave. We stayed. We fighters. Yall runners. Ain't know runner can tell a fighter about a damn thing.

"Erik U dont understand. We wouldve been killed." So the fuck what. We died fo our shit, but yall weren't willing 2 die for yours & now U come here trying 2 cut the line & take our place & Bitch, dont be calling me by my 1st name. We aint cool like that. Thats Mr. Killmonger 2 U.

& we ain' family. I dont play crayola politics so I dont care we got da same skin color. I ain't got no Melanin infatuation like the rest of deese niggas. I's knows what yall done did to us. I gives as much afuck about Africans as George Jefferson gave about Archie Bunker.

NIGGA SURVIVAL

This is what white supremacy looks like. A smiling Negro thanking a good white man 4 giving him 2 life sentences 4 low level drug possession b/c U know, the judge "did what he had 2 do" & deep down inside, Mr. Charlie really loved him.

Nevermind the judge was appointed by Obama, the so-called 1st BLACK president, the harsh sentence was caused by DEMOCRAT Biden's crime bill & YET, somehow the harsh sentence was commuted by the so-called racist white president black people hv been instructed 2 hate, Donald Trump.

Read dat back. We so fucked up as a people, we don't even know who is friend & who is foe. This is the essence of just how perilous our situation is on American soil. How the hell do U unite with any black person when most Negroes dont even know who the fuck their enemy truly is?

Attempting solidarity with black people who don't know who their enemy is will guarantee all black people's annihilation. So I stay to myself, surrounded on all sides by forces that can devour me at any moment. Whether it be by a virulent in your face racist, a liberal racist or-

by a soft genteel respectability politics Clyburnian Negro who has no clue that their words & actions are operating up under the influence of or deference 2 white supremacy. Every black person on American soil is operating under the influence of what I call "Racial Gravity."-

DEATH BY GREED

How patriotic am I? In my perfect world Steve Jobs would have died in prison and every politician, CEO & board member who helped offshore American jobs to enrich themselves would be put on trial for treason. Hear me. Capitalism is the greatest enemy of patriotism.

America created generations of oligarchs thru free & cheap labor, tax loopholes & our politicians today still allow it. In fact, they're in on it. Under the banner of globalization, we allow American companies 2 exploit both natural resources & human resources of other nations.

General Electric made billions during the Obama years & didn't pay one dime in taxes b/c the Obama administration & Democrats refused to close the tax loopholes that allowed big companies like GE & people like Donald Trump to escape paying their fair share like other Americans.

Shit, America created Donald Trump & a litany of other ridiculously wealthy mostly white oligarchs who don't give a fuck about anybody at the bottom of society. Senator Elizabeth Warren was right as hell when she said, "it's all rigged." Hell, she was apart of the rigging with-

A TRAITOR'S SHADOW

"it doesn't appear Democrats would have enough support in their caucus to change the rules because at least two centrists are resisting." CNN

Now imagine if the roles were reversed. What would Mitch McConnell

Why do I have little faith that anything will change under Biden? Look no further than Dems reticence to kill the filibuster. Real talk.

YOU GOT 2 YEARS. 2 FUCKING YEARS.

Prediction: If Dems dont kill the filibuster, they will lose the midterms thus losing Congress & Trumpism-

returns in 2024. All b/c Dems cant bring themselves 2 being as ruthless 4 their principles & values as Repubs are 4 theirs. Where is Democrats' Mitch McConnell? Who on the Democrat side is as ruthless as McConnell. No one. McConnell don't give a fuck & Dems have no such villain.

Leadership aint got a goddamn thing 2 do w/whether U or I agree on what said leader is doing. Leadership is about whether the mafucka in charge DOES WHAT HIS/HER PEOPLE SENT THEM THERE TO DO. Herein lies the problem w/electing a moderate in times that calls for a progressive.

Hear me. ALL OF JOE BIDEN'S TENURE WILL COME DOWN TO WHETHER SENATE DEMOCRATS KILL THE FILIBUSTER. McConnell is still behaving like he is in charge, telling the Democrats there will be no impeachment trial just like he told Obama there will be no Supreme Court nomination.

MY RACIST

If U remember from an earlier post I brought up Sen Elizabeth Warrens remark that "Obama did more for Wall Street than Main Street." I concur. U can ignore poor black people all day, but under no circumstance can U ever ignore poor white

Now Biden must be careful not to repeat the same mistakes of Obama. Biden most go big & go big fast. Fuck inflation. Order the treasury to start printing money. You will not beat Trump by impeaching or prosecuting him. You must beat him on the battlefield of ideas & you do so by-

helping the people he ignored. People with good jobs, food on the table & a roof over their head dont have time to do insurrections. If U help these people, you will choke off the fuel to Trumpism. Some black people will criticize me for taking this approach. My simple retort is-

you can't out-violence white people. We don't make guns. We don't make bombs. We don't make shit. You have to make it such that everyone eats. Otherwise you have to deal with the warning Heather McGhee lays out in her new book: white

Obama did not get this. He made it such that only rich white oligarchs got to feast. Everyone else got crumbs. I need you to get precisely what peace requires. There are a good number of white people in this country which would rather burn this country down than to allow any-

TRUMP: "I've decided to eat babies."

PEOPLE: "He can't eat babies, that's super illegal."

TRUMP, on TV, eating babies, not even cooking them first: "People are saying that I really am the best baby-eater, folks."

NYT: "Trump Vs. Babies: The Rhetoric On Both Sides Must Stop"

Jeff Flake tweets: "It is a sad day in America when this callous man can eat babies live on TV"

Jeff Flake, 10 seconds later, votes to help him install a series of 4,000 new judges that are very, very pro-babyphagia.

Judge Kavanaugh, found drunk in a Capitol Hill closet: "I LIKE BEER. OKAY? I LIKE BEER AND I LIKE BABIES AND THAT'S NOT SO WRONG. THAT'S RIGHT. I LIKE BABIES DIPPED IN BEER. I JUST DIP EM. IN THE BEER. THE BABIES. THE BABIES I EAT. OKAY? THAT'S AMERICA."

Mike Pence, wringing his hands about the baby-eating: "We must take care of our children. Our youngest must be protected on this troubling day."

Mike Pence then invites a Baby Chef to say a prayer.

Twitter Users: "It's a distraction technique! Trump eating babies is trying to DISTRACT YOU from ALL THE OTHER HORRORS, which are themselves distractions from the BABY-EATING. It's DISTRACTIONS ALL THE WAY DOWN."

Trump: *eats tons of babies at a rally*

*literal tons of babies*

#Thread Take action to defend free speech 📢

Stage 2 scrutiny of the Hate Crime Bill begins tomorrow, Tuesday 2nd February. Members of the Justice Committee will debate and vote on various amendments. It is vitally important that more, significant changes are agreed.

We still believe the best course of action is to drop the controversial stirring up hatred offences altogether. At the very least, MSPs must back changes previously promised by the Scottish Government.

The govt has pledged to: restrict the offences to ‘intent’ only; strengthen a free speech provision covering religion and insert a new provision on trans identity; remove provisions on 'inflammatory material' and provide an objective test for what ‘abusive’ behaviour means.

Other useful amendments have been lodged to: remove the vague term 'abusive' altogether; insert a broader trans free speech provision; provide a ‘dwelling defence’ for words spoken in the home; and insert a 'prosecution lock' requiring consent from a senior law officer.

Please take the time to write to Justice Committee MSPs and ask them to back these vital changes. Details of the amendments and how to contact MSPs are below.

#FreeToDisagree

Much of Twitter is misunderstanding Bruce Castor’s speech at Trump’s impeachment trial because much of Twitter is absolutely NOT Bruce Castor’s audience.

This man is on it. He knows he only needs to keep *over 1/3 with him. Then more so, he needs the American nation on his side.

Honestly, Twitter misunderstanding what Bruce Castor is doing right now is like Twitter misunderstanding how Brexit & Trump won back then

“Why fear the people who were smart enough to pick you?” (*Listen*)

And yes, ditto for David Schoen. He knows who his audience is.

And he’s on target.

Two different audiences
1) Castor: public opinion
2) Schoen: the law

Oooooh, he held up the Red book. OUCH 😖😆
