Cory Booker should apologize for his "proposal" re: ICE. That would be a good example of self-accountability. Apologize and explain to your constituents WHY your proposal makes no sense at all.

I remember when I thought Cory Booker was a decent person and not a sell out piece of shit. Was I ever so young??
THREAD. Having just written a book about this and talked to a LOT of Democrats, I can assure you that neither Cory Booker nor the policing industry he’s advertising think that more money for ICE “training” and tech would address any problem that any person of good will has with what ICE is doing.

this is what true evil looks like, ABOLISH ICE and take these mfers to the hague
Thanks. We have folks in our community giving vulnerable students rides to school, and a teacher shared that they were putting small stuffed animals on their dashboards to help kids identify safe cars. ICE picked up on it and started doing the same. Horrifying.

Also, let's be clear. Mark Zuckerberg's net worth was $85 billion in 2020. Today it's $212 billion. These losses don't affect him at all... as far as he's concerned, everything's going great. Those thousands of people who lost their jobs? Don't matter to Zuck at all.
The division has lost over $77 billion since its inception in 2020.

You don't need to liken what happened to Renee good to what happened to Jews in Germany.
You have to liken it to what your ancestors did to Black people here about 150 years ago because guess who the Nazis learned from? YOUR FOREBEARS.

Conservatives and their reactionary cousins believe that their views are true because they believe them. They don't need hard proof or to be able to argue for them. They're "common sense."
This viewpoint is the fundamental unifier of everyone on the right, from atheist ancaps to Christofascists.

To add to this, almost all of the U.S.’s problems are linked to its hatred of Black people and that it hates Black people more than it loves anyone else. Our laws and policies are largely based on making sure Black people (and sometimes other groups) don’t benefit even at the expense of others.
If there's one empirical insight I'd want everyone to understand about American politics, it's this:
America's problems are solved problems. Just not here.
What would change if the US simply matched the average of 31 peer democracies? Not Denmark or Norway. Just the middle of the pack. 🧵

The reason cities don't have public bathrooms is they hate the homeless. So it's also good for Zohran to be doing public bathrooms to show homeless New Yorkers they're home too.

Who wrote this? Can we not say that 35 is a "big age," please?? It makes it sound like we have one foot in the grave.
And sure, HR has given me something to live for while our Democracy collapses into Facism, but it's not because I'm old, it's because I'm human. ✌️
TY for coming to my Ted Talk.
