If Y'all Aint Messin' With The Funky Academic, You're Pourin' Jelly On Yourselves

Listening now. He's cooking

 

[WIA20XX]

Can you give us a synopsis? I'm gonna listen in a bit but can't at the moment

My takeaways

• Why you got 3 black chicks up there? Where's the diversity?
• When "we" think of race, we think of the men in the race, not the women.
• White feminism has lead Black women to believe that she can do all bad by herself.
• He then says that Trump roasted them (ehh, don't know about that)
• But they should have been talking to Trump about....wait for it...you know it's coming...TANGIBLES. How is Trump gonna erase the Black/White wealth gap... He has some other points about how "Black Leaders" need to be on ofay's neck about the dollars

I might watch it again...but for my money, Osei is usually more right than wrong, and sometimes the wrong is me not really parsing what he says.

Yeah, he lost me with that.

The Dems prior to Identity Politics, were always on that "working man's" issues.

And they lost to Reagan and kept losing to "a guy i'd like to have a beer with"

The policy fight is one thing - but the politics is something else.

Irami thanks that the Right is becoming more populist which will help labor (for whites) which is why he's mentioning it I believe.

 

[Easy-E]

I can see why folks don't like him, cause he's flipping over tables and killing sacred cows

Reason why I respect him and Yvette and Tone.

They'll said plenty I disagree with. But, I appreciate their integrity.

More populist by setting the foundation of their platform around policy that people hate like women's choice on abortion I can imagine the primetime interviews now...JD Vance "from corporate tech bro to man of the people" tonight on 60 minutes

His wrong on that tho... The Right will use the populist shyt but there won't any labor help for whites or anyone.

I’ve been saying this for years but…. I don’t even care anymore at this point.

Nah, that's not 100% true.

The Democrats in the '70s got hijacked by the feminists, gays, and liberals who started pushing all the crazy sex and drugs & started moving away from the working-class issues.

That's where "sex, drugs, & rock n' roll" came from with all the weirdos dropping acid at Woodstock & stuff like that.

A lot of that (along with racism) alienated the working classes.

Reagan was able to say to those people, "look, crime's out of control, they let pornography & vulgar music fill the airwaves, and the economy's in the toilet, vote for me".

Clinton actually got elected in '92 on economic issues.

"It's the economy, stupid' was the Clinton campaign's motto.

Clinton ran on bringing things back to the working man, but he governed TOTALLY DIFFERENT than how he ran.

The Newsweek article is pretty dope

Black Men Should Be Allowed to Vote on Their Economic Interests Like Everyone Else | Opinion​

Apparently, Black men are not allowed to vote with our economic interests. Black men must back Harris, Harris must #WinWithBlackMen, and we must "protect the sister," as Van Jones put it on CNN. That's been the message since the party announced that Vice President Kamala Harris would be replacing President Joe Biden in the November presidential election against former President Trump.


Read the other side of the Daily Debate:

• My Fellow Black Men—It's Time to Get in Line Behind Kamala Harris | Opinion

It seems that Harris is entitled to the Black male vote simply because she is a Black woman. I do not recall an election where working-class Black men resoundingly decided that Harris should be the party's nominee for U.S. president. But apparently, that's irrelevant. Apparently, we're not allowed to question the best candidate or best economic policy for us. Instead, we are expected to surrender our vote to party leadership and pull the lever based on the candidate's race and gender.

Are the livelihoods of Black men so disposable that we are to be denied the opportunity of pursuing our own economic interests? What if Trump's immigration policies and rhetoric do help Black men in the labor market? Without instigating a civil war within the Black community, I do not appreciate watching Democratic party elites ensure Vice President Harris is free to ignore political solutions to the economic degradation of Black people.

When it comes to policy, she's only been clear about one issue: abortion. Yet abortion should not be the only issue Black men vote on. To my mind, abortion should not be the only issue any demographic votes on, because the issue can never be resolved in a nation that embraces religious pluralism. Leaving it up to the states is in the spectrum of acceptable compromises, even if it is not my ideal. if we are going to talk about anything else, ever, as a matter of national politics.

rest of the article

Black Men Should Vote on Economic Interests Like Everyone Else | Opinion

Apparently, it is both misogynistic and racist to demand that Harris supply a vision of government that speaks to Black economic interests.

this isn't accurate in the fukkin slightest, but then again I'm arguing with nikkas who listen to Youtubers/podcasters and don't actually read/understand historical context.

isn’t this dude married to a white woman?

Yup.

It's always the ones not marrying black men/women that think they have the floor to talk about the black family- and it's why they're never going to be taken seriously.

Going off right now.

I can see why folks don't like him, cause he's flipping over tables and killing sacred cows

I really don't agree with everything he says though, cause he thinks a Trump win will pull the Republican party towards the working class of the Republican party.

Like many academics - he sees politics in either 1) Identity Politics, 2) "bread and butter issues" - when Trump won on personality and sentiment and vibes

why didn't he do it the first time then

I swear to god, I'm far from educated as this man is by a country mile, but this is just wishcasting and saying shyt for the sake of saying cause it makes no sense when you consider we have a four year term to go off of and not just hypotheticals.
