I love how folk (mostly White) on the left want whole ass gigantic mountains, the heavens & the 🌍 to be moved to expedite the prosecution of Trump’s cabal but when we asked y’all to police your White peeps away from voting for him in the 1st place, y’all couldn’t be bothered. 😒
We’ve literally been warning y’all that this shit was a Klan kleptocracy disaster just waiting to happen for not just years or decades, but CENTURIES. Y’all’s sense of urgency & justice is still hampered by your myopic privilege so you fail to realize that we’re already TOO LATE.
Millions are dead from COVID worldwide and thousands are dying every damn day in this Russia/Ukraine war (that was explicitly promised & ordained as a consequence of Trump in the WH), so y’all still need to disabuse yourselves of the notion that damage control is a glamorous job.
Also the other notion Y’ALL need to be disabused of is the one that hits a brick wall at “police your White peeps” b/c Fox & the GOP have rendered them brain dead. At what point are y’all gonna use your White power to take down the PURVEYORS of the propaganda that’s killing them? Image
A lot of y’all are so used to evading consequences in your own lives (as a result of your own White/White adjacent privilege) that you still refuse to wrap your mind around the reality that THESE are the CONSEQUENCES of your APATHY & outright REFUSAL to be intersectional in ‘16. ImageImage
Bottom line is *we meant what we said* when we told Y’ALL ALL of this shit was gonna be epically fucked up to hell & back but NO. You didn’t listen, you didn’t prepare, you didn’t vote & you didn’t do a damn thing to fix ANY of it. We still don’t trust you & WON’T depend on you.
Precisely 🎯 BUT it’s that latter part that has folk melting down in my mentions on a regular basis. People are well versed/highly skilled at mourning, booing, Monday-morning-quarterbacking & pointing fingers BUT what they DON’T wanna do is take responsibility for THEIR INACTION.
I’m glad you showed up to project your privilege onto me b/c it proves my point. Marginalized voters aka the base of the Democratic Party aren’t #onhere pumping out failed attempts to tweet Garland, Pelosi, Schumer & Biden into giving us POWER. We actually #VOTE on election day.
Now that enough time has passed for the hit dogs to show up and holler in this thread 😒, I’d also like to add how striking it is that 1) an ample number have shamelessly told on themselves despite it being 2022, The Year of our Queen & reliable ally Betty White and 2) see 1. Image
But seriously though, 3) these people swore up & down they had the sauce for a full blown revolution but when you scroll their rebuttals it’s clear their failures are rooted in the narcissism of the individual/interpersonal ego being prioritized ahead of the power of a COALITION. Image
IOW I mostly see White people (who mostly do seem to mean very well btw) lamenting their own personal “failure” to deprogram their Trumper kin as if that’s what we even mean when we say *Whiteness* isn’t adequately policed. Y’all aren’t fully grasping the ubiquity of SYSTEMS yet. ImageImageImageImage
Y’all think you’re being admonished for not being able to unbrainwash folk we ALREADY KNOW are incapable of laying down their armor of White supremacy/oligarchy/theocracy/patriarchy. The allyship we’re seeking is your INTERSECTIONAL commitment to the civil/human rights coalition.
Instead of falling your ass in line for the shared goals of POWER, FORWARD PROGRESS, #Hope & #Change, y’all fall in LOVE with grifter charlatans who promise the world and unicorns to you but never fucking deliver b/c they can’t build an intersectional coalition big enough to WIN. Image
Now what kinda sense does that make? #Malarkey #GTFOH 💨
They’d rather call us racist for calling out the White American majority for voting in lockstep for every last ounce of death, dishonor, destruction, disgrace, disregard, democide and DEPLORABLE that Trump/the MSM/GOP have dished out than take responsibility for enabling it ALL.
Leave it to the narcissistic nihilists who keep creating all these damn messes to have a problem with the speed at which said messes get cleaned up by OTHER folk. 😒 What, pray tell, makes y’all’s end of the horse shoe any different than the MAGAts who desecrated the US capitol? ImageImageImageImage
Mind you these are the same folk who tried to convince us that neither Joe nor Kamala had a snowball’s chance in hell of ascending to the WH b/c the WWC’s “economic anxiety” was insurmountable & the only viable electoral cure was prioritizing Bernie/Bros ahead of civil rights. 🙄
We’ve been through way too damn much since 2015 for us to still keep falling for the *same* disinformation, manipulation, intimidation and overall FUCKERY over and fucking over again. The stakes are still too high and too many people are still on the LOUD & WRONG battlefield. 🗣
For those of you who’ve read this *fair* warning & become uncomfortable, I hope you ultimately find impetus in the fact that it’s also a *threat* b/c we’re ALREADY experiencing the 1st few levels of hell y’all opened up when you refused to heed our calls in ‘16. #VOTE wisely. ImageImage
THIS👇🏾 right here is the crux of the dichotomy and why this whole thread is acutely evergreen. I’m wondering why non-fascist White America continues to be fresh out of ideas and asking *other* folk to intervene but when it’s us with the cultural disparity it’s OUR PROBLEM to fix.
Actually it’s NO wonder at all b/c when your puritanical lefty priorities prevent you from building a coalition, you’re cordoned off in a maze of futility b/c you don’t have the 💵, ads or crossover *votes* you need to WIN. You won’t even let White supremacy TRY to disarm itself. ImageImageImageImage
IOW, I’m old enough to remember when Liz (read Bernie by extension) thought she could easily book a ticket to the WH by giving Bloomberg the Bain Capital treatment circa PBO v. Mitt ‘12 but it flopped for her b/c Black voters KNEW we needed his ad/GOTV 💵 AND to NOT vote for him.
All of the above coalition building/election winning concepts are completely foreign to privileged people b/c they’re deluded in bootstraps rugged individualism and refuse to buy into the intersectional benefits of a multicultural coalition. They blow up the tent with their ego.
They also blow up the tent w/their terminal deficiency of discernment. They don’t know what effective, reliable allyship is so they routinely idolize like-minded ideologues who *also* aren’t effective or reliable when it comes to civil/human rights & intersectionality. THEY flee. ImageImageImageImage
Not only do they flee like thieves in the dead of night, they vilify and disown any & every effort to use both light, gray and dark money to beat Citizens United and the GOP at their OWN game. They shoot every last cause they purport to champion in the foot by DIVESTING from it. ImageImageImageImage
Many of y’all are failing at adequately policing the Whiteness within your social ranks not b/c you refuse to discuss politics with them but b/c you’ve allowed them (and yourself) to believe that classism/capitalism are bigger barriers to egalitarianism than racism & sexism are.
Long story short, all of the above is how we’ve arrived at an as of yet unmitigated, fascist, treasonous Constitutional crisis for the 2nd time in our nation’s history since 1861; mainstream White America’s insistence upon using euphemisms & purity to evade consequences & change. ImageImageImageImage
The timeouts y’all were raised on didn’t teach you any pain, lessons or consequences, so the sense of urgency you should be concerned with rn is rapidly rehabilitating yourself in time for Election Day. It could very well be our last so stop just booing and make sure you #VOTE.

It’s not so much that the “cut-and-runs” don’t trust Biden/Harris in 2024, it’s that they didn’t (still don’t) trust the *predominantly Black woman base of the Democratic Party* who ultimately chose BOTH halves of the winning 2020 ticket. They never wanted US to be the deciders.
These are the same mostly White “moderate” pundits & electeds who thought Obama should be primaried/replaced & Hillary deserved a brokered convention instead of a “coronation”. They started ‘20 vilifying both PBO & HRC in favor of their preferred alternatives. Ain’t shit changed.

They’re still PISSED that despite their best efforts and media blitz to shove Bernie & the also-rans down our throats in the early stretch of the primary, we STILL voted for the most reliable White ally left on the stage and mobilized the Obama/Clinton coalition to nominate Joe.

As I’m wont to do, I’d like to take y’all for a quick stroll down memory lane b/c the conversation around Biden’s age is so severely lacking in couth and nuance that I’m about to crawl out of my skin….
When Biden announced his candidacy in April 2019, he literally framed it as ‘look, I know I’m old, but America is in such tremendous peril that I’m compelled to un-retire and lead the battle for the soul of our nation.’ We had a ginormous field of youthful candidates, but HE WON.
As he is today, he was met with a resounding chorus of “he’s too old,” but you know what?! He didn’t give a flying FUCK! He watched how the primary unfolded & knew the MSM-built field was *incapable of mobilizing Black voters/the Democratic base*. Battle for the SOUL of a nation.

If the argument is Biden’s too old to do the job he’s *already been doing exceptionally well* for the last ~3.5 yrs, doesn’t it then follow that VP Harris has been secretly doing it for him, thereby proving that she’s fully capable of being POTUS if something happens to Biden?
Y’all aren’t fooling anyone but yourselves, WE know full well what a line of succession is b/c we already voted for it in ‘20, resoundingly. WE already have a VP we trust to be a heartbeat away from the presidency and her name is Kamala Harris. Put some respect on it & #ExpectUs.
Reality is Trump’s a deranged convicted felon/liable rapist & disastrous former fake POTUS under numerous additional indictments who still hasn’t picked a VP despite the very real prospect of him being incarcerated and/or progressively incapacitated. That’s a line of regression.

‘I’m Black, and being a felon or putting your name on sneakers isn’t getting my vote’ | 🎯🔥💣 via @LeslieStreeter thebaltimorebanner.com/opinion/column…
“To even pose this as not just a possibility but a campaign strategy is deeply condescending, dehumanizing and cynically, diabolically racist.”
Image

@LeslieStreeter Inevitably, Black people end up re-explaining this shit over and over again, *every election cycle* because the GOP insists on lying about us to win votes and the MSM insists on amplifying said lies. Not only is their strategy diabolically racist, it’s mindnumbingly AHISTORICAL.

If the GOP was capable of producing a scrupulous candidate who could *both* appeal to moderates and speak explicitly to the bigotries & grievances of the GOP base without committing endless crimes, they wouldn’t have had to hitch their wagon to an aspiring felon in the 1st place.
Aside from the fact that Trump’s hubris and ego would never allow him to step aside, he’s irreversibly stuck to the GOP base like glue b/c he echoed their fear, jealousy and hatred of the 1st Black POTUS and promised them he’d “take our country back” and make America White again.
They felt traumatized by watching the Obamas restore our reputation on the world stage, while their most cherished Confederate statues, heroes & flags were torn down in the wake of the Black Lives Matter movement. They cried out for a White savior and Trump answered w/Birtherism.

Reality is the predominantly rural & suburban White Texans who keep electing Republicans aren’t actually winning anything but the freedom to die of Whiteness without interference from a functional social safety net. Their electoral “victory” ultimately amounts to self-sabotage. Image
They’re gonna keep killing themselves with guns, drugs/alcohol & science denial and the folk they just elected will keep not giving a fuck. Their kids will remain uneducated, unmotivated & uncompetitive and the wages of Whiteness won’t be enough to sustain them or turn the tide.
Also their feigned religiosity isn’t ever gonna save them from the consequences of their disastrous political choices. Their family systems are in a shambles and there aren’t enough behavioral health providers or community resources to clean up the endless messes they’re making.
