That makes more sense. I'm not saying I think it's a good way to go, but I can understand people getting so disenfranchised that they want nothing to do with it anymore. The problem is that at the beginning of this convo you sounded like you thought refusing to vote for Kamala specifically as a punishment for what these state politicians did.
Anyway, I don't think it's over. After looking it to it, the people that have been fighting for reparations and they are hopeful they can win eventually, so I don't know why people on the sidelines would feel like the dream is dead.

IMO Cornell West would be better suited for the Senate then the oval office, where he could have more power lobbying for legislation.
I said this before in another thread, for a black person or any minority to be president they would have to white wash themselves to appeal to white voters. So having a president who is going to have anything on their agenda strictly for blacks in 2024 ain't happening.
Listen for the 3rd time. The black people in Cali are doing this, many are saying since the democratic party killed the reparation bill. They are on some fuck all democratic which will impact Kamala election.
This is what Knock is pointing out. Knock didn't create this. This the 3rd time me saying this. Knock only cosigned it and is pointing out the move that the black people in Cali are doing come the President election.
If you dont understand their move, the shit ain't for you to understand and that's ok. You do you. As far as those ppl, trying to shame them and pinning it off as it's a Knock thing is stupid.
Again, Knock only told you what these black people are planning on doing because of this situation.
When we examine the details it tells a different story than the one suggested in the OP and title of this thread. (it's not blocked; it's resting, with intent to bring back into play later. also the person taking responsibility for the delay is chair of the black caucus over there and is a black woman)I bet if one Donald J Trump or Republicans blocked reparations in this day & age, this thread would've been doing all kinds of numbers by now. All kinds of accounts would be in here, "You still think Trump better dan us??!", "Seeeee, Republicans ain't a better choice", "How u gon' put us last??!" and so on and so forth. Prolly a whole 30 pages.
Blocked by democrats, now don't nobody see shyt. I bet them posters just waiting for this thread to die.

Then you finance someone to take their place. The concept shouldn't be this hard for y'all to get.
A democrat also introduced both bills if im not mistaken.. so to say fuck all democrats is short sighted and just plain silly imo

This thread can basically serves as a case-study looking into multiple examples of individuals being completely tone deaf at this point. lol.
I truly wish the mods can make it to where folks can't use the phrases, It's silly. It doesn't make sense because what don't make sense to YOU may make sense to others
Just say it's silly to you and you don't understand or need more clarity
That's my point in all this mess. Them black folks are intelligent and if they choose to move how they wanna move let them do so dayum
If it's silly or don't make sense say that it doesn't make sense to YOU becuase I understand it.
It may take longer for folks to process things and that's ok.
That's why I state in my opinion or it doesn't make sense to ME.
Yall say that shit to make it seem as if yall got the answers or some shit smh.
You did say imo...but others don't say the shit. They say the phrases to try and shit on shit without any understanding

you dont know what IMO means nigga?
Actually I don't have a defeated mindset. I stated in multiple threads that the path to reparations is through Congress...the people who actually write the legislation. Electing congressmen that will lobby for a bill is how we get there. Voting out and replacing representatives that don't follow through is how Blacks show their political power.Just like you have that defeated mindset about an agenda being created for blacks, let's not sit up and look for someone who wanna help black folks to prop up. And that's ok
I said you said imo nigga
A black candidate running for the PRESIDENCY.Didn't you just say that a black candidate won't create a black agenda in 2024?
Black folks who are dropping out of the political game are looking for someone who is going to create a black agenda. This is where things are going towards and will continue to head this way.
It's too many black people out here now that are hipped to the game.
You just said in a post that the person has to appeal to whites and create an agenda for black folks. I don't understand why you don't think this can happen but if can't understand, there's no reason to keep asking who is going to step and who can we put in office because from here on out, the average black person when you get offline under 40 is going to ask them for a black agenda or what will they do for black folks

You and the crew are too hyper focused on the Presidency. Cali is already on lock for Kamala, so threatening not voting for her doesn't pack the punch you think it does.
I mean if thats the case... having the one YOU bought and paid for and is gonna do shit YOU want them to do seems like it might be productive but aite

A black candidate running for the PRESIDENCY.
A person who is running for a congressional seat is only really beholden to his/her constituents.
