Irish socialists had to fight the same battles. We still are. You cannot replace British capitalism with Irish capitalism. You cannot replace white capitalism with black capitalism. But with socialism. Racists often tell me my politics are spiritually black. That's a compliment.

What's disturbing is that people like Jeffries, Booker, Crockett, Torres were clearly identified early and groomed, as black faces who could be utilised to uphold Israeli interests.

I supported JC until I saw her true colors. It's extremely insulting to say people support her because she's Black. If that's the case, I'd support Clarence Thomas & Tim Scott. Folks believed that because she's a Black woman she would genuinely care. Realizing she's awful is sad.

Truly the Diversity problem resides in the concept that although "Folks" may be diverse in Skin Color and Cultural Identity, they are only chosen when they are attuned to Corporate Capitalist societal goals the Ruling Class wishes to Achieve, unless that is true, they will still will be excluded from any serious consideration. Diversity in Thought and Socio Economic Values is what is required, not a difference in what make up they use

We certainly have our fair share of Black politicians willing to provide cover for the harm machine in the US, and itching to take the wheel to export harm, genocide, and extraction the world over.

I always go back to Ta Neishi Coates point on this issue when it comes to representation in power (for reference he was talking about Kamala Harris): What's the point of representation if all we did when got it, was to act like white people?

I don’t look the skin tone of a person, but their characters and actions. She act like a ratchet influencer and not a politician with common decency. Rewarding bad behavior to stay relevant.

Alleged African proverb: When the ax came to the forest, the trees said, “Look, the handle is one of us!”

BLACK FACES IN HIGH PLACES WON'T SAVE US As the fascist nature of imperial policy is being amplified by the Trump administration, the neoliberal policies that have paved the way are often overlooked. Far away from the white supremacist aesthetic of MAGA, the Black faces that have pushed imperial policy helped expose the simple fact that “Black faces in high places are not going to save us.” In other words, we cannot assume that fellow Black individuals will protect our rights solely because they occupy positions of professional, political, or economic influence. Today, we revisit a powerful moment from April 2024, when Professor Ruha Benjamin addressed this idea during a speech at Spelman College in Atlanta, Georgia. One of the most potent examples of this sentiment, alluded to by Professor Benjamin, is the multiple vetoes by former U.S Ambassador to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield of UN Security Council resolutions demanding an "immediate ceasefire" in Gaza. Accusations flung in 2024 by the then head of US Africa Command (AFRICOM), General Michael E. Langley, at Burkina Faso's revolutionary President Ibrahim Traoré is another glaring example. Langley - just like former US President Barack Obama, who oversaw US military operations across the African continent - is simply an imperial mouthpiece. Faces and voices like theirs are used to advance imperalist interests and maintain systems of global exploitation, as well as the US military-industrial complex, all under the illusion of inclusion. Somalia and Libya have already been on the receiving end of US power. Today, Washington appears to be circling around Venezuela - poised to pounce on a South American leader who has dared to stand up against fascism and white supremacy. This is another act of aggression that has been met by utter silence from the Black neoliberal ruling class.
