I think what I’m saying is that I’m a Southern Black man who pulled himself from poverty to the Ivy League and in 8 years went from nearly homeless to running digital for some of the biggest politicians and I have had to fight for seats at tables others get offered for free.

The blasphemy!

A lot of people are shocked by the “points on the board” phrase - as was I - but it was also shocking how common I heard this and other game-type metaphors.

Many who are deeply disconnected from the harm do view and talk about it privately as a kind of sport. It is gross 🤢
