this was great...you folks should do a series on potential destinations for a Blaxit...someone’s gotta check out some islands Caribbean though s/o to T&T

I’ve been having a little trouble getting a date of late. I wonder what the man with the multiple divorces and messy and public as hell private life has to offer on the matter.

Lol why is Ron Clark taking centerstage here???

Susan B. Anthony might not be your best example there bud.

The old anti-slavery school says women must stand back and wait until the negroes shall be recognized. But we say, if you will not give the whole loaf of suffrage to the entire people, give it to the most intelligent first. If intelligence, justice, and morality are to have precedence in the government, let the…

“What words can express her (the white woman’s) humiliation when, at the close of this long conflict, the government which she had served so faithfully held her unworthy of a voice in its councils, while it recognized as the political superiors of all the noble women of the nation the negro men just emerged from…

PREACH

lol big ups....as an ex-food service worker....I responded with the similar comment

I feel like you’ve lost your thread now. First you critiqued objectification in general and now the focus is degree of objectification. Your critique of choice feminism seems to only applies to other folks. Sex work isn’t some magically distinct category of work. It’s connected to the Capitalistic economic system like…

Ehh I pretending that all feminist thought that makes room for sex work and open displays of sexuality with is choice feminism is a little disingenuous. In this case, I would agree that the article’s justification is theoretically baseless but some Radical Second Wave feminists fought pretty hard for a conceptions of…

Why is exploitation only objectionable in the strip club and sweatshop setting? Gender and race based exploitation are both at the center of the Capitalist system.

No, that’s not what I was saying at all. I thought I was pretty clear that the focus on policy outcomes and accomplishments is incomplete and shortsighted. What you quoted from my previous comment is the end goal. It is not my expectations for the Obama Presidency or any presidency for that matter. I’m saying his…

That’s a tough one. Years ago I probably would have said something along the lines of free universal college education, single payer healthcare, abolishing mandatory minimums, reversing sentencing disparities, prosecutorial reform, genuine attempts at prison rehabilitation, and an expansion of abortion and LGBTQ…

Not at all. I’m saying Trump was mostly a response to a Black President. Any Black President would have been enough to set Trump supporters off. But yea my critiques were about Obama’s handling of this fact as well as his late response to his fact. We all remember McConnell and his line about his main purpose over the…

thank you...i sincerely appreciate it...usually folks just ignore what i say lol

Haha exactly...the Sage Steel connection is so insightful... they aren’t  confused college students...they both are educated, employed, and famous sellouts who are responding to economic and social incentives to sell out....they know what they are doing....also 100% black unity is great, in theory, but, in reality,…

also I have to push back against the notion that its the “democratic party’s” responsibility to “field a candidate worth a shit to succeed him, isnt his fault. Any progress he made that has/will be rolled back is the fault of a democratic party more worried about policing peoples thoughts and behavior than with…

The second point to my critique is about results.

This isn’t about going far enough for me. He never challenged the roots of our government, national ideology or the systems of oppression that they are based on. Going far enough will never be a complaint for me. The man ran his campaign on him basically being the personification of American Exceptionalism, in effect…

*Edit:Policing is about social control. You generally need to bust heads to do that.
