Kamammy Harris ‘Agenda for Black Men’ will be open to all races and all 26 genders
- Thread starter BrothaZay
- Start date
I don't know about you:
Increase the number of Supreme Court justices from 9 to 18, with 18-year term limits staggered so that one seat opens per year
Require a supermajority of ⅔ of the Supreme Court for judicial review of federal laws
Enact a binding code of ethics for all judges, including Supreme Court justices
But this is definitely a better solution to the Supreme Court than the garbage Kamala Harris is trotting out

Not saying this statement is wrong, but IMO the problem is black people playing the game wrong. Politicians on the federal level job is not about trying to make life better for certain demographics. That's a never ending game we play and continue to lose. Folks we call special interest primarily do two things. First they will fund and push candidates that align with their agenda and hope it will eventually materialize. Second, they find ways to make the government benefit them i.e. tax breaks, contracts, etc. Our priority to the game is incorrect and unfortunately folks don't call it for what it is.

Why do you think I should engage with you when you just dismissed my points as "excuses"?
I'll try one last time.
This isn't an excuse for RBG, because I agree she should have stepped her stubborn ass down, instead of trying to make a statement by being replaced by the "first female president." She put her ego over the well-being of the country with that decision. However, even if RBG had stepped down and been replaced by an Obama appointee, Trump still would have gotten two Supreme Court picks with Gorsuch and Kavanaugh, because of McConnell blocking Merrick Garland and Kennedy retiring. So, while it's frustrating that Trump got a third pick with Barrett, the Court would still be tilted heavily to the right regardless. Again, I have no problem blaming RBG for making Barrett possible, but that ignores the bigger strategy that allowed Trump and McConnell to reshape the Court in the first place.
What I am trying to explain to you how it's not just about individual players like Thomas or the disastrous mistakes of RBG, although those are part of the story. What we're dealing with is a well-coordinated, decades-long strategy from conservative networks to reshape the courts and block any policies that aim to support Black communities specifically. This effort isn't just about Trump's presidency, even though he plays a cruial role, it's about groups like the Federalist Society, the Heritage Foundation and legal "activists" like Edward Blum who have been planning these attacks on racial equity for years.
We can't ignore the reality of how these legal and political strategies are being used against us because that won't make the problem go away. Giving up just cedes more power to them.

It seems like Kamala can't 'curry' anybody's favour! 
What is your idea of "fix the housing and rent issue"? For her to truly fix it would mean a major redistribution of wealth. What is giving you the idea that Kamala is one of the most hardcore progressives weve ever seen?
Now could she be the chosen one/Trojan horse once prophesized? Of course she could be. But some specefics about how she plans on doing this would be nice. Building more units doesnt seem like the answer to me. I somehow doubt these new units are going to be cheaper than whats already available. So unless shes building low income project buildings in inner cities I just dont see it.
And couldnt lifting everyone just create more inflation,higher rent/housing?
Transfers of wealth,and opportunity for generational investment comes when white people are doing horribly in this country(recessions,market crashes,housing crashes). So this idea that ALL being lifted is going to be great for black people isnt something i believe. If your happy with what you have? Sure,if white people are comfortable you can stay comfortable. Thats the only goal of politicians,bring the most whites back to their mean(average) of comfortability.
Now you have to ask,where are black people when whites are at their most comfortable?
A)above white people
B)equal to white people
C)beneath white people
D)Mostly beneath,with a few equal and above so they can claim America is fair
And black people are still at the bottom. We even got surpassed by people that have gotten more out of the civil rights act than we have
See how that works?
That’s because many black folks look to the government to save us or waiting for the next black savior rather than looking inward and saving ourselves.

Consecutive thumbs up
Between Biden's fukkery, Obama tanking Black wealth and the Democrat's inaction, I don't see a real difference. If we can't be equally comfortable, we can all be equally uncomfortableTrump is MORE racist. So which would you rather have? The less racist or the more racist?

More often than not I tend to take that L.
“Kamammy”is crazy tho 
Use government for your interests but Asians and Latinos don’t expect the government to come save them and help them build wealth. It’s black folks that expect government to save us to a fault and always to be saved by some leader.THEN WHAT IS THE POINT OF VOTING.....
