(34,648 posts)I tried to warn em! But nooo! They were too busy trying to LECTURE black folks on MLK, economic justice and how to protests properly. So this is what happens when you talk AT black folks and try to LECTURE them on their OWN history and CIVIL RIGHTS and make you candidate out to be blacker than them by invoking his Marching With MLK creds over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over in a paternalistic fashion, then go all MISS MILLIE when they do not rush to support your guy and gasp! Heckle him. Oh no!!
Then go all dramatic with the tears of bitter injustice and lash out at black folks about HOW OPPRESSED YOU ARE since they didn't let poor poor Bernie (they would be LUCKY to have him as president) speak. How could they!?!? AFTER ALL HE'S DONE FOR YOU PEOPLE!!
