like, this man vehemently opposed “busing” to end segregation in schools and basically said things should be separate but equal, drafted the infamous 1994 crime bill (which he’s defending as recent as 2016,) the Anita Hill fiasco, not to mention all his social flubs throughout the years
like this man is literally continuing to hide behind Obama and trick people and no one is calling him out or bringing to light how sketchy he’s been regarding black issues in the past
Bloomberg is one thing but at least Bloomberg’s attempts to hide behind Obama are painfully clear, whereas people really believe Uncle Joe has their best interest at heart and let him continue to suck up votes from the uninformed. i’m sick
whereas Bernie was literally in the trenches with civil rights (prior to any political office, showing it wasn’t for personal gain or leverage,) marched with MLK, organized sit ins, was chained side by side with black women and arrested for protesting segregation in chicago. literally like the sole former civil rights activist on the Senate.
and what makes it even better? he uses none of that past for political capital or personal gain
why is it we continue the narrative or let it continue that Biden is some champion for black people just bc of his link wit Obama???
Bernie should be the one attacking him on his racist past but he won't because "Joe is a friend"

our king don’t play dirty politics
i think he’s worried he’d have to conflate biden’s racist past against his own past of civil rights to really hit home, but i know he doesn’t want to mention any of that bc it could be viewed as cheap or smear his original intentions as malicious and self-serving, which i respect

Nah thats a bullshit reason and you shouldn’t respect him for that. That’s the part where trump is super relatable. He just calls their f***ery out by name. If bernie did that he would 70% landslide this primary. His record is immaculate and if he compared it accurately to his corrupt trash human opponents it wouldn’t even be close.

well i meant specifically using his past in civil rights for clout, not just coming at them or comparing their actual political records together.
him not using activist s*** to win minority support makes those votes even more genuine and doesn’t let him fall into the dangers of cult-of-personality types. i respect that very much and it’ll make it even better if he wins, but tactically speaking, yes, he should just air out everything
problem then tho is it shifts his s*** away from actual policies and issues towards “cancelling” type tactics
The same reason the media is quiet about Warren claiming to be Native American for years...
