Bloomberg singlehandedly disproving several decades of bullshit lefty postmodern theory about race and identity guiding political choices and confirming that money and class has primacy.
Bloomberg, despite an overtly bigoted stop & frisk & surveillance record, has lined up dozens of the most prominent minority mayors, lawmakers & business leaders, while buying silence from civil rights orgs. If race alone guides politics, not power, how do you explain this?
Ofc identity pol partisans, rather than challenge this w/evidence, revert to racism, attacking my racial authenticity or calling me white. Ok but does that mean Bloomberg's endorsers like Juan Vargas, Greg Meeks, London Breed, Lucy McBath, Fiona Ma are all now white, too? Lol.
Identity pol partisans advance a racist trope that minorities vote or endorse based narrowly on issues like criminal justice. Those stereotypes don't fit the real world. People have agency & other political incentives despite attempts by establishment liberals to tokenize them.
