THREAD

I’m back! So the W Lefties flagged my Eldridge Cleaver tweets & I’ve been in TwitMo. Most people who read those tweets know they didn’t cross the line, they were tamer than the racist tweets I was arguing AGAINST but the twitter double standard is what it is esp for BW.
But get this lefties & let’s be REAL CLEAR!!! I AIN’T ONE OF YOUR LITTLE FRIENDS & YOU WILL NOT STOP ME FROM POSTING! if anything you’ll just force me to be more clever & nice going BTW the last thing anyone needs is for a triple Capricorn to find shadier ways to insult folks.
Look the REASON they wanted my tweets removed is because I effectively called out their nonsense and BS. The absolute NERVE of them invoking our dead heroes like Fred Hampton in order to disrespect a living legend & Blck Panther like @Deoliver47 was BEYOND THE PALE!
4. Ms. Denise is both an elder and a hero and EITHER is cause for respect let alone both together & young W kids going after her on Harriet Tubman’s Internet?!
5. Also they went after her because she suggested “policing the police” would be a better slogan, one that Hampton would’ve endorsed and the lefties LOST THEIR MINDS! Funny thing about that, we actually have empirical proof she was correct, BP FOUNDED ON policing the police.
6. Myself & others have said that “Defund the Police” is an OP! BLM was surging in support after the George Floyd case UNTIL the lefties came in & re-appropriated the conversation to police BUDGETS! How would $ have helped GF? Why a $ framework more important than a justice one?
7. Lefties changing the conversation to make it about $ is ALL THEY EVER DO! Which comes back to WHY they only ever bring up our dead leaders, cause they’d rather retcon Blk leaders from the last to pretend like they’d have their support than work with Blk leaders alive now.
8. They HATE identity politics, they hate anything that doesn’t CENTER THEM! I even had a WW try to use Eldridge Cleaver as a rhetorical cudgel! Really? The guy who thought violating WW was a radical political act? See they don’t even really KNOW BP history EC very problematic
9. And that’s how you know you’re dealing with ignorant kids who have been bamboozled by populism which is NOTHING MORE than lefty White Supremacy. Racism is a FEATURE not a BUG! they are NOT friends or allies they only want Blk people to USE for their own purposes.
10. Anyway I see my job as being vigilant & pushing back HARD against this attempted hostile takeover of the Democratic Party! I’m particularly VEXED by the inroads they seem to have made with Blk & Brwn youth! Well lemme say this, the Blk aunties are the base for a reason...
11.If you think the Black women who outvote and out-organize EVERYONE to be the base of the Dem party, don’t have your interest more at heart than your White lefty friends who do nonstop battle with us (disrespectfully I might add) then I dunno what to tell you but I know this...
12. You & I can disagree politically but don’t you EVER in your LIFE let those White kids think it’s OKAY to disrespect YOUR BLACK ELDERS! Don’t you let it slide and don’t you model the behavior (Like cheese cheese) you see it, you call it out even if it lands you in Twitmo!
