I was trying to explain to some white girl today that voting for Kanye isn’t taking away from Biden because they don’t have the same base. And when she keeps calling me stupid because i was right. And when I said she was mad because a black man was calling her out she got angry. This made me think do these people actually care about us or do they want to feed their egos and try to look smart and when someone like me calls them out they feel insulted that a black person is challenging them.
Many people on the left play race and victimization politics. Race hustlers. I hate both political parties and don't believe in a two party system because it doesn't provide us with real options or solutions. Many people on the left are playing Black people. Some of them are racist and are only concerned with keeping Black people dependent on them.
Leftists barely exist in the US and have next to zero power to exert. This conversation is doing what it's supposed to: obscuring class.
yes there is some racism from even those who support leftist views.
a lot of white people have been notoriously against kanye since the taylor swift incident.
kanye’s fan base is definitely
more white than black which is normal given the population. a lot of people are uninformed about politics. maybe those people are aware that biden is trash so they believe that kanye could legitimately have a chance if people kept throwing their votes away.
the realm of politics is mad. all you have to do is look at how the media treats leftist politicians: corbyn and sanders are two big examples of the first world country where the establishment utilises everything in their power to stop any form of left wing ideology.
so to answer, while there is without a doubt racism towards kanye, people are genuinely shook of trump and what the future holds. some people don’t want another bloomberg/warren deal where they more or less siphoned votes away from bernie.
and others don’t want someone who was seen as supporting trump to do the same.

fam shut up

The exact same thing can be said for the right. But OP asked about the left.
Be consistent fam.
Why?
you talk about how you hate the two party system and talk about how many people on the left are playing black people
meanwhile, the two party system only contains people that more or less have the same ideologies. capitalist corrupt warmongers.

Complete nonsense, the public conversation is completely dominated by leftist ideas now

yes except people on here mistake liberal for left...
Complete nonsense, the public conversation is completely dominated by leftist ideas now
no it f***ing isn’t
typical example
they are worst than republicans to me. Look how they talked about black people after than SC win for Biden
Complete nonsense, the public conversation is completely dominated by leftist ideas now
Culture is liberal. Not leftist. The US is dominated by capitalists and imperialists. That is not a leftism that I recognize.
Clintonism was the reification of Reaganism. They called it the third way. It's a far departure from New Deal Dems. It's conservatism with representation. Minor concessions. Managed expectations. Cultural victories alone. The major points have been conceded to the right.
You’d be surprised. A lot of people think being racist is just going around saying “n*gger n*gger n*gger” when it is in fact much more subtle. In fact you may not even notice it right away

Black people are being played by American politicians period. Regardless of what party it is. OP asked about the left, and I gave my opinion. They play race politics that make Black people believe they have their best interest, yet do absolutely nothing to improve our communities collectively.
White liberals think they know what’s better for you than you do
Couldn’t have said it better myself

You're right. It is very subtle and sometimes the people who go the most out of their way to prove or act like they don't care about race are the ones who are concerned with it the most.
Some white leftists are yes.
But I think you're talking about white liberals, not leftists in this instance
yes except people on here mistake liberal for left...
Sure but it applies to leftists, liberals, conservatives and rightists

that’s because there hasn’t really been any leftist politicians or government in the US
the current American political landscape doesn’t care about eradicating poverty or making sure people have healthcare and housing.
from clinton, to bush, to obama, to trump they may not be the complete same but they are definitely all the same establishment that keeps the people down.
corporate media reflects their views that’s why it protects this political class .
