read Amusing Ourselves to Death by Neil Postman. The book critiques sound-bite information, which is the entire premise of Twitter and Bluesky. Summarizing the book is antithetical to the book’s argument. You need to read the whole book!
Have you ever read any books by anti-capitalist people of color?

You support establishment Democrats, so by definition you are a liberal not a leftist. Liberals are ok with capitalism, leftists are anti-capitalist.

You can be black and still support white supremacy, which you do by supporting establishment Democrats.

I’m writing for the other people who read this, not you since you’re gonna ignore me. If you’re not a bot you’re a liberal (you are not a leftist) who doesn’t know that there are people left of you. Here’s an article about Obama by Cornel West

Pity the sad legacy of Barack Obama | Cornel West
Our hope and change candidate fell short time and time again. Obama cheerleaders who refused to make him accountable bear some responsibility

You’ve provided no argument for my racism. I have provided plenty of arguments for your racism.

I must be talking to a bot

Please listen to black women like Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor. Here she critiques the Democratic Party establishment including Hilary Clinton. Did you know the Dems and Clinton are right wing???

Why should we trust you? Clinton's big problem with young black Americans
In the 1990s, Democrats helped shift the national conversation away from systemic racism. If the country’s first black president could not disrupt the racial status quo, what can we expect Hillary Cli...

You keep using red herrings to avoid Cornel West’s arguments and to avoid my original point that equity will not exist if bosses exist. Oh and here’s another leftist critique of Obama:

The nation's first African-American president was a disaster for black wealth.

Nobody seriously involved with anti-racist actions should share what they do on a public forum. That would be an incredibly stupid thing to do now with fascists in control. You should know this. But since you don’t, I doubt you do anything worthwhile.
August 30, 2025 at 1:20 PM
Did you even read Cornel West??
August 29, 2025 at 12:21 PM
Please tell me anti-racist things Obama did.
August 29, 2025 at 12:21 PM
He’s half black. You know damn well that light skinned black and brown people are hella racist towards dark skinned black and brown people.

And I will never be an ally to someone who is ok with bosses existing. Take screen shots of this and share it widely, please!

There’s countless leftist and anti-racist critiques of Obama. Like this one

Africa to Obama: Mind your own business
Like all imperial powers before it, the US seeks to dominate the world in order to exploit it.

Cornel West thinks otherwise. Obama was a black face to a white supremacy
August 27, 2025 at 4:35 PM
What US president and administration hasn’t been racist??? How could one have an equitable system where bosses exist???
August 27, 2025 at 3:03 PM
As long as bosses exist equity will not exist, so corporations parading DEI is propaganda.

Yeah but *why* could people organize more effectively in LA?

Some thoughts:

It’s easier to organize under Democrats than Republicans, cited by Chomsky in 2020

LA has better public transit and walk-ability compared to Texas and Florida, that makes moving to organize easier
