The New York Post reported - RFK Jr. comes out in favor of reparations.

This is getting around and making my friends negative towards Kennedy. They tried this in California and it was very unpopular with the people footing the bill for this massive expense.

The "firewall" of Joe Biden's reelection campaign strategy is "Jim Crow" Clyburn's racially gerrymandered district in South Carolina, in collusion with Republicans and against the interests of his own constituency. This is the true face of Biden and the Democrats.

It’s mind-blowing to witness the incoherent True-Believer-ism of the hard left DNC. Gavin Newsom is told that running for president would be racist — last time I checked Joe was still a white male — and Gavin agrees to become Gov. Surrogate instead. Using the DNC’s “logic,” shouldn’t the ailing and unpopular incumbent give way to his POC VP???

There is no "hard left" DNC.

? maybe you have a different term for an ideology that would utilize race is a disqualification* whenever it’s convenient to do so. In fairness if it were used against a racial minority it could be labeled “hard right” — but we don’t see that happening these days. [*not that I think Newsom is a fit presidential candidate in his own right.]

I'd call them right-authoritarian or center-authoritarian if being extra charitable. When a threat appeared on their left in the form of Bernie Sanders in 2016 and again in 2020, they made sure he would not be the nominee.

Okay, I think I understand what you’re saying. And, honestly there were policy elements held by the “Original Bernie” (TM) I agreed with. TBH, I am sorta “over” the right/left thing — but we completely agree on the authoritarian part.

Pretty much agreed. I think the authoritarian/libertarian axis is the one to be most concerned about these days and where the real "battle" is, and I think RFKjr poses a threat to the establishment more because he's libertarian, less that he's "left" or "right".
