Kamala Harris' "blackness" is questioned

[Frederick]

There are some legitimate criticisms of Kamala's record as a prosecutor, but a couple things to keep in mind:

First, a prosecutor in her position would oversee literally hundreds if not thousands of cases, so the odds of never making a mistake or opening yourself up to criticism are tiny. Prosecutors are never going to be loved. Tough on crime? Perhaps racist. Soft on crime? Let killers go free. Getting it just right so you never let murders go free but also don't put people in jail for nothing is a hard line to walk.

Second, Harris never indicted women for truant children, she *threatened* to indict them. PI don't like either of those, but threatening to indict is much, much less bad than actually indicting. Her goal, according to her, was to scare the parents straight.

I just want to say this doesn't mean she's perfect or anything like that, but it's worth noting that there's a lot of disinfo out there about her time as a prosecutor and in general being a prosecutor is a really rough job that always going to be open to criticism from one angle or another.

Wrong. She did "indict" them. She didn't "prosecute" them. If you don't understand the difference, you shouldn't be lecturing others about what to think about her record.

She threatened poor women with prison because their kids missed school.

Look at this fucking video. She's talking about how she put charges on a homeless woman who was working two jobs to support her children like it's a good thing.

There's no fucking way to spin this shit. It's deranged.

Also, let's get this straight. There's a difference between the legal and colloquial definition of truancy. Being legally "truant" doesn't mean that you never go to school. It just means that you have a certain number of unexcused absences on the year. Depending on the state, it can be as few as five. Also, showing up late to class sometimes counts as an unexcused absence. Poor families might have their kids miss a day of school or come in late for all sorts of reasons that are out of their control.

Threatening poor black people with prison as a means to adjust their behavior is racist bullshit. You're out your white liberal mind trying to defend this garbage policy to a group of black men.

Also, if you want to shutdown an argument, it ain't gonna happen with Snopes or any of those other fact checkers. They're just as biased as anybody else.

Nah bruh, she indicted poor black women whose kids missed school as part of her truancy initiative. She went up on stage and bragged about putting charges on black women in front of white donors.

This is why sisters ain't havin' it. You go on Harris's social media accounts and the harshest replies to the stuff that her campaign is putting out is coming from black women.

Don't be fooled by that homeowner's bullshit that she tried to put out either. She already got caught saying that she wasn't going propose any specific policies for the black community when she got asked about reparations.

This woman is disgusting. She only going to get support from a handful of white bread bougie types. The rest of the community knows exactly what type of person she is.

Solid points, I read about the bus issue.

Who is using snopes in this thread?

You didn’t quote them, so I was curious.

Long and short story is, if ganja had been an actual African thing before colonisation it‘d still be there. But it’s an Indian thing, it came from Hinduism as far as I know. Indians brought it with them to the Caribbean where the Rastafaris incorporated it into their religion.
That’s not to say there aren’t any weed smokers. I used to have some weed smoking African neighbors when I was at uni. It’s not an actual cultural thing though, it’s just something they learned through reggae and liked.

I'm Jamaican with a Rastafarian uncle and that's totally false. It's a completely religious experience for most of them.

Well here's the sad thing. She has a legitimate shot at winning the primary and if she does in voting for her. If not for any other reason than we need adults running this shot again. I hate being this politically engaged to point where I lose sleep. Honestly I think climate change is going to destroy the Republic and make us nation states but until then some normalcy would be nice.

Disagree, Brother Freddy. Black h*es will be first in line to vote for her on principle alone. Anything else they can mentally reconcile. You see online at least how they're trying to vote-shame hetero black men if we don't fall in line.

Hahaha we had an 8-year scandal free administration under a guy who won both the popular and electoral votes twice, with the first movement on nationwide health care in over 100 years, and it was just too much for bullshit Murkkka. They expressly didn't want "normalcy" they wanted chaos, especially the far-left. This is the new normal, right here. Trump is not a glitch. As whites slowly lose their majority, expect more shenanigans. Enjoy.

PS: Trump's rolling back Obama's whole climate change agenda.

I don't know man. She launched her campaign months ago and they've been pushing the "support the black queen" bullshit hard in her favor, yet she has more support from black men than black women. Even Bernie and Biden's crusty white asses are outperforming her.

Her record is so fucked up, that it's effectively undermined the sistahood's solidarity.

Cardi B shouted out Bernie on Twitter earlier, and there were a shitload of her black female fans who gave him positive responses.





The primary is still in its early phases though, so we'll see.

 

[Frederick]

Is she even a real person? How the fuck can you say something this stupid? And how did she not get laughed out of the studio?

Spot on response to this "Russian bots" hysteria that's been pushed by the Dem establishment to excuse all of their failures. People acting like Trump and Putin invented American racism.





Harris is bringing them up because her supporters have been claiming that "bots" are distorting her record as DA/AG.

This explains why they didn't check her clown ass for any of the bullshit that she said.

If you think the far left wanted chaos you aren't paying attention, they may want more than the majority is ready for they don't get off on the destruction of others that's all on the right.
I suggest if you have the disposable income invest in climate disaster relief and disaster preparedness its going to boom like crazy.

I use to like him when it became clear dude is totally down with the gynocracy he constantly calls men trash while praising women never calling them out on their shit especially black women. Nothing about his actions surprises me.

Not only did they want chaos then, they want it now. See AOC and "The Squad" ("Justice Democrats") attacking Dems harder than the GOP, which gets a pass.

The opposite of chaos is the status quo, are you gonna tell me leftists are for the status quo? Haha.

Nope, this bullshit is the new normal, we're in the Endgame now.

Ok if you say so

I turned on that show for the first time in ages today and that motherfucker was making jokes about Pernell Whitaker getting hit by and a car and dying.

Dude is straight up trash, and so are most of the rest of our cultural gatekeepers.

Yeah, because Pelosi is enabling Trump.

Dude, this shit isn't about personalities. There's an actual policy debate here.

This latest spat started because Pelosi pissed away the "victory" from the government shutdown and gave Trump everything that he was asking for. That's why Trump started defending her.

Trump exists because of the failures of the Democratic party, and they're going to get him reelected by playing defense and refusing to do oversight during the campaign.


Also, all of that bullshit from the Congressional Black Caucus attacking AOC and Pressley last week came about because people are finally going to primary their useless sellout asses and replace them with people who work for the community instead of Wall Street.
