Hakeem Jeffries is opposed to class analysis and he watches Game of Thrones. He's an anti-socialism liberal.
“There’s a difference between progressive Democrats and hard-left democratic socialists,” Hakeem Jeffries told me. “It’s not a distinction that I’m drawing. They draw that distinction. And so clearly, I’m a Black progressive Democrat concerned with addressing racial and social and economic injustice with the fierce urgency of now. That’s been my career, that’s been my journey, and it will continue to be as I move forward for however long I have an opportunity to serve. There will never be a moment where I bend the knee to hard-left democratic socialism.”
Jeffries likes that phrase, bend the knee. He took it from Game of Thrones. “Black progressives do tend to tackle issues first and foremost with an understanding that systemic racism has been in the soil of America for over 400 years,” he said. “Hard-left progressives tend to view the defining problem in America as one that is anchored in class. That is not my experience as a Black man in this country. And perhaps that’s where we have a difference of perspective.”

guess when youre rich all you gotta worry about is bigotry :shrug-outta-hecks:
Capitalist party ghoul doesn't think capitalism is a problem :stirner-shocked:
The ghouls before were at least putting up good theatre about making the rich “pay their fair share”. Now…
Were they though?
Obama, Hillary, and Biden all said that in their debate speeches and on the campaign trail.
Jfc he's really trying so hard to insist that these issues aren't intersectional
