Take note that Bernie’s back in the Deep South accusing the predominantly Black local Democratic Party and the DNC of being crooked, wealthy elites who are rigging the process and standing between him and the promised land. #followthepropaganda #botbait
A man who alienated the Democratic base in 2016 with whines, lies, insults and smears while losing the South, the Black vote and the nomination in the process but starts the 2020 do-over by making the EXACT same “mistake” again is doing the shit on purpose. #protip
This tweet perfectly epitomizes the alienation that lost Bernie the Southern Black vote in ‘16 and my ongoing problem w/him in ‘20. MLK’s civil rights receipt photos are mostly black & white b/c he was assassinated in ‘68, so what pray tell is Bernie’s excuse? 🧐 #WhyINeverBerned
Not only that, but so many of the black & white civil rights photos floating around the internet as “proof” of Bernie’s “heroism” and “allyship” *aren’t actually him*. A Snopes investigation wouldn’t be required to verify if he was there or not if he was actually THERE. 🤬
🚨 Spoiler Alert: the civil rights receipt fact check expedition never ends b/c he indeed was NOT there.
Once again, this is a function of folk who are cosplay, #weakassunreliableallies not understanding that the civil rights movement didn’t end when MLK was killed or when Bernie relocated to 1% Black Vermont. They DGAF about what he HASN’T done for 52 years or lately. I DO though.
