but do you *truly* believe he's going to do anything about this issue? For me, I can't see it.
We don't have time to waste. Thinking, "oh, we just gotta get rid of Trump and everything will be okay," doesn't solve anything. We have to stomp out Trump and everything that comes after. Bloomberg is what comes after. The world will continue to get worse and then boom, we all die from climate change.
I don't know if this is your intention but your post is coming across as minimalizing the harm someone like Bloomberg has caused to black/brown individuals.
I mean his record on abusing children of color is pretty fucking poor. What makes you think the man who promotes cops roughing up black kids is gonna care about brown kids who aren't even citizens of this country?
I'm not sure why you believe anything Bloomberg says tbh. It's easy to put shit up on a campaign website. His entire existence prior to this run for president is in direct opposition to his supposed platform. The man is the literal definition of a wolf in sheeps clothing.
Bloomberg is also a child imprisoner. I don't believe him when he says he's done imprisoning children.
Preach this shit to the heavens.This thread has successfully fucked my day up, but I guess I shouldn't be surprised.
This day has been demoralizing and seeing Twitter replies praising this monster has led me to having some dark thoughts. Liberals/Establishment truly give no shit about black or brown people unless we're used as tokens.
But with Trump in another 4 years we're all gonna die and those kids will be tortured and refugees will be sent to die even sooner
I said probably! That's higher than the current dude, so I'd vote for Bloomburg over Trump but I wouldn't think we'd be immediately in a wholly better situation, just that we'd have less outright evil being standard government policy.
Pretty much, also add trans people to that too because Bloomberg has said some virulently transphobic shit too.
I have 0 confidence Bloomberg is going to govern in a less racist manner than Trump. Everything he's ever done in government suggests the opposite.
Fuck off, I'm not supporting Bloomberg or excusing his racist shit. My vote is not always endorsement. In the worst case scenario, I want to vote for the least damage even if it's voting for a 5.7 earthquake vs a 6.0. I'm voting for Bernie in the primaries and I wish the DNC would tell Mike to fuck off.
Well the video does say she's former Bloomberg employee at best and current at the worst. Still scummy CNN didn't admit her ties tho.
They have the same politics. The only difference is Bloomberg won't put on mobster cosplay in the White House
You can also not vote, like 40% of registered voters did in 2016. You have that right. You can choose not to vote for two incredibly shitty people. No one is forcing your hand.
These people are not your friends, and they do not represent anyone except themselves.
When the options are a racist or a racist it really feels like I don't have any say even if I do vote.
You'd just be picking a different flavor of white supremacist here. There is no lesser evil between Bloomburg and Trump and their records prove that.
It's like the tweet posted earlier alluded to: voters like sapien wish for the quiet part to be done quietly again. It's the optics of Trump's antics they largely disapprove of, rather than any of his unethical stances.

like a certain folk singer once said liberals are 10 degrees to the left in good times, 10 degrees to the right if it affects them personally
Context matters. Look at the threads subject, and what is being discussed here. Coming in and saying you'd still support, or even prefer, this fellow because he's potentially the better of two options in a hypothetical situation, when we're discussing his racist policies and practices, is still showing support for racist policies and practices.
Obama didn't even stop it. What makes you think this man, whose utter contempt for minority populations is self-evident in the tenor of his voice and the meaning of his words, would ever do so much as lift a finger to help those people?
This shit should be viral everywhere, & throughout the entire press. I didn't even know about this until recently.
