Dems tweeting ✌🏾outrage✌🏾at the Courts decision were tone policing Rep. Waters 24hours ago. Fuck this respectable outrage. Disruption has ALWAYS been apart of forcing change. Folks do not NICE their way into equality & equity. Voting is important but we need MORE than that...
We remember folks shutting down highways just a few years ago. I don’t know why or how folks are allowed to get away w/ saying the 60’s were a more civil time. Civil for whom cause the pics & stories I see/hear tell a diff story. This country treats marginalized communities...
...like shit & then folks wanna tone police their reaction. Rep. Waters is a black woman who lived through Jim Crow. She knows who 45 & his folks are. Folks love MLK til his radical views come into play. Rep. Waters IS RIGHT. Don’t tweet your outrage at the Courts decision...
...and then try & silence Rep. Waters rightfully telling ppl to protest.
I absolutely think Dems as a party are not ready to be as radical as the base need them & want them to be. Which is why most of the movements & actions that’ve taken place since last year were spurred by people & had nothing to do with them. They hopped on last min...
Remember the disruption at the airports? That had nothing to do w/ Dems. They showed up late as hell. I think the base is FORCING them out of their comfort zone. Is it working? I don’t know but coming for folks who ARE going head up to this admin, is NOT gonna go well 4 them.
Dems loooooove Black women when we’re saying fuck you to 45 in his folks in the voting booth but then wanna silence that same anger in the street??? Tuh. Folks better realize who we’re dealing with.
This is rightful anger. We see what’s happening. We knew what was coming when folks told us “he doesn’t mean what he was saying. It’s not gonna be that bad”. It’s actually worse. A lot worse. And ya’ll wanna play nice.
