Whoa! Expand, please...

To be fair, that’s like a Silicon Valley Thought Leader giving money to a New England Republican, tho...

Hi Monte,

Same here. Well, I had a feeling, but what was critically missing was the way I was thinking about this whole issue. That’s key to a lot of political and social developments.

Please share it to others. I think it’s not just what people think, but how they think.

It’s funny, cuz I read him in college, and apparently he made no impression. I recall never really being sold on organizing around a Black Studies Department (with fellow students), and arguing about race versus racism with a friend, all things that Reed, especially then, would have written about. But after college,…

I’m not so sure about a BLM activist being incredibly left to Bernie. The polemics of race-essentialism can make for leftist rhetoric, especially in comparison to pro-PD rhetoric, which is usually from whites and an apologia for the reckless killings and murders of blacks (and everyone killed in a - to put it nicely -…

You just opened my eyes even further about this whole issue. Ever since the disruption at the Bernie rally in Seattle, shit hasn’t sat well in me. Like, something isn’t right. Then I discovered http://thesouthlawn.org/ and re-discovered Adolph Reed, and have seen clearly about this issue. You have definitely brought…

What clout? Who are the “leaders” accountable to? How are their strategies in line with the materiel interests of working class Black folks, who consistently show economic concerns - which you claim “leftier than lefty types” only give a shit about? Where’s the recall election for electd officials who don’t hold the…

For ISIS, a military response is obviously needed, which is what we’re doing but we go an extra mile to assure people like you that we really don’t want to do it and we will only do the most minimum to assure you that we’re doing something. In other words, a military strategy that seeks the deafeat & expulsion of…

Thanks. I’ve been following that story with utter shock, but no surprise.

By encouraging a confrontation to defeat them?! If they want to die, we should accomodate, considering they’re raping and beheading and censoring in the meantime. What’s your grand plan? Equip police with body cameras, tell me how Bernie Sanders is bad for people he’s been fighting for his whole life and letting PoC…

Let’s not send ground troops or impose a no-fly zonein all of Syria, tho; that would get more women raped. Let’s not criticize Islam, because ISIS isn’t practicing the Real Islam (Obama, who’s not a Muslim, assured us if this fundamental fact). Let’s not worry too much for the Arab, N African and Asian girls being…

Wait, so I’m not a 32 year old Israeli or Palestinian, but I have ideas about their relations. The idea that whites can never tell black people anything re: social relations or political development is absurd. It’s not what you think but how. One doesn’t have to be a Ph. D. to see the “angle” Rush Limbaugh is coming…

Upon a second reading, it is amazing how hateful this piece intends to be. You make a completely wrong and glib analyses of racism and class, which makes racism out to be an ahistorical phenomenon, as opposed to a developing feature within the larger social development, capitalism. Thus, because Bernie’s not black, if…

Identitarian drivel. Nonsense.

I’m a big flake, and it ain’t cuz I’m depressed or have social cues deficiencies. I flake for reasons of money, When I make the plans, I have (or intend to have) money. Day/night of plan: no money. I have enough pride to nit mooch, but none to not flake.

He magnificently and unintentionally encapsulated the jock-sniffer’s subcontious hatred of sports and athletes. Awesome.

can’t*

Go HAM and let her know her country’s filled w losers who can touch fleek like you. Have a blast w her n never mention her impending departure.
