DEATH TO AFRICOM, KILL THE BOER

DEATH TO AFRICOM, KILL THE BOER

This race brings up an age old political question for Black people. Should the light weight goofball be supported when in danger of losing his office because of big money pressure from a group of white people or should he be treated with the same indifference that he meted out to them? Bowman’s absence, like his presence, probably won’t matter very much.

My answer: let him be hoist upon his own petard. Play liberal games, win liberal prizes-- in this case, as swift betrayal and replacement with someone who'd play ball with the zionist-supremacist terrorists. When it first came out that Bowman lost, I footstomped that this is the fate of all misleaders-- when they need an example to execute for the edification of the rank-and-file, the true-believers, and the cynical careerists, it will be you the minute they run out of actual progressives.

...Which of course, erroneously assumes that the Democrat party has any dyed-in-the-plaid progressives. You will not catch me shedding tears for a half-stepper.

Apologies for the time away. Coursework's been a brain-melter as of late. Still ain't no compromising; still ain't no retreating.

The Biden administration, the lead gangster, is still committed to sending weapons to Israel. Biden called Andrés to offer condolences but the State Department insists that Israel has not committed any war crimes. The winks and the nudges continue, as the client state shows that it is on an equal footing with its benefactor and should not be considered an underling of any sort.

This dude's REALLY been trying to tie together the fact that China keeping their own ecosystem is racist and I'm just sitting here tryna not corpse like "oh man how would you feel about Black folk forging their own nation apart from you out of your own guts"

I don't need to ask; I already know based on his trying to throw around "blinded by hate" and other trite liberal muleshit

Let's chat, c/em_poc. Is [referenced in video title] a slur or not? Is there a consensus that I'm just not privy to here, or is this fed's mod staff just particularly replete with Hwhite sensibilities? Because your fed's mods certainly seem to think it is.

I just love it when my OGs turn around and commit to paper things that I've been saying.

But if there is another point which is made obvious by this definition and that is that the United States has and is committing genocide domestically and internationally. Of course Black people played the biggest role in making this case beginning in 1951 when the Civil Rights Congress published the pamphlet, “We Charge Genocide ,” and documented the case against the U.S. government. The charges are still valid as Black people have been the group primarily victimized by mass incarceration and all the other impacts of racial capitalism, from denial of housing rights to decent medical care.

If Israel is committing genocide in Gaza, the United States did the same and assisted others in Libya and Syria and Somalia and Yemen and Haiti. This long list of criminality is one of the reasons that Secretary of State Antony Blinken and other officials call South Africa’s charge against Israel “meritless.” If they acknowledge Israel’s genocide it would not only expose U.S. culpability but they would have to acknowledge their own misdeeds as well.

No, I don't care that 'it's more book keeping'; when 5e has kineticists, then we can talk.

The use of Black and brown puppets to distort the racial optics of exploitation was a standard part of colonial administration, and it has remained as a central element of neo-colonialism. It is not at all surprising then that imperialists would use the same strategy in the U.S. where some have characterized the country’s African population as an internal colony of sorts. Amilcar Cabral disagreed with the idea that the predicament of Black people in America is a colonial one, but he also said: “That is not to say that the aims are not the same. And that is not to say that even some of the means cannot be the same.”

If you don't recognize the man in the header image of this article, this is Lincoln Theodore Monroe Andrew Perry, the "first Black movie star in Hollywood". In the near-constant role of 'Stepin Fetchit'. A literal Vaudeville minstrel, billed as "the laziest man in the world" across more than 40 fuckin films.

Stepin Fetchit is the very face of the Black Misleadership Class. Shucking, jiving, and tapdancing sellouts to the White empire. Genocide minstrels. Imperialist rentboys.

Traitors, in a word. These misleaders will sell anyone and anything for a crumb of 'getting theirs'. Ten years ago? It was Syria and Libya. Today? Palestine and Haiti. Tomorrow? It could be us. The misleadership class might share our skin, but they are not our kinfolk. We need to recognize that, and begin cutting them out with even more rigor than what we used to mind our own with.
