Did you not see the recent news about West supporting action taken by DeSantis?

They couldn't have chosen a better grifter to lead the grift party. I hope they fleece a lot of people into learning something

Dude is literally just caping for DeSantis because of personal financial interests
The house party is over here - https://hexbear.net/post/270915/comment/3505028
Isn't that party just a big grift? They were supposed to run local candidates in 2022 and they didn't do anything except for raising money.
I don't know anything about the party. But if they're grifters - West is their man!
West fashions himself as a champion of the workers and the disenfranchised. Yet purely as a money grab - he's partnered with a fascist. And DeSantis can use his relationship with West as PR whitewashing.
This is the tiniest sop to the culturoids. Would Paris not be worth, at the margin, one more Henry James book in lieu of one more Toni Morrison? Are you irate that every book assigned in school isn't Settlers? Who cares?
Also, the blog post linked is turbo lib:
Cornel West’s endorsement of Jill Stein — and hence, for all intents and purposes, Donald Trump — before the election that (inter many alia) brought us the end of Roe v. Wade and January 6th
We’lli know who i am voting for now.
Just to shit on the democrats.
I can't give a shit about third parties anymore and don't know how anyone still can.
Whaaa??? You're over getting scammed by grifters into believing in things that are utterly pointless.
Yeah, this people's party has been a grift from the start, and the rest might as well be at this point
Welp, nevermind. I was willing to vote for him, but I just learned all that is in this thread. Why does every third party attempt get filled with cranks?
American brainworms run ridiculously deep. People who become cognizant enough of the sham of bourgeois democracy and reject the two-party system will either A) become commies, or B) invent new nonsense ideologies and new political parties to push them.
It's because attempting to displace the Dem party in our system is a monumental task that requires a LOT of groundwork before running a presidential candidate. These are all inherently long-shot, Connor Roy-style "anything can happen" campaigns, it requires being a ridiculous person to do it.
Big name as a Indepentent , this is good. this is healthy , this breaks the Tired dynamic.
I wonder if West is still passed about not getting a ticket to Obama's inauguration...
