Does the fact that he's black have significance?? Would you say "I heard a white activist this morning?"? He was amused?? I didn't see any black brothers with that crowd; I wonder how amused he would have been after being shot by said viking.?

So you're a racist.? How do you define racist?? Prove up your insult.

You tried to play the racist card because I called him a "black activist", a term even black leaders use themselves and how they are defined on Pacifica.? It's not a derogatory term.? So I called you a racist for doing that particularly because you made a racial issue.

FYI, probably because you never listen to Pacifica Radio (which is very left wing BTW) they celebrate "black activism" all the time.?

You are calling me a racist because I don't listen to Pacifica? Do you have any idea what racism is?? I asked you a question and for an explanation of what you meant.? I have zero problem with black activism.? As an example, I fully agree that you and I have done as well as we have because we have benefited from structural and systemic racism.?

If you'd posted the source of your comment, we wouldn't be having this conversation.? I listened to the interview and have the context now for why he thought the whole scene amusing—two different purveyors of white supremacy (government and the insurrectionists) at war with each other.? He's just going to sit back with his popcorn and enjoy the show.? I'm not impressed with his casual and cynical attitude, although I understand his anger.? Unfortunately, he's applied the wrong context to this situation, imo. And, 5 people died and several were seriously injured.? It isn't amusing.? I also disagree with the conclusion he came to from watching Biden's meeting with the NAACP and others.? The black activists out in front right now are all about pushing for structural change via Biden's presidency and there will be change.? It's the GOP they need to worry about, not Biden.? ?

The pro-democracy Democrats need to hold the WH and Congress for multiple terms.? The GOP is now the anti-democracy party, headed by tRump. They are transparent in their agenda; they peddle any number of conspiracy theories to forward their goal(s).? They are brainwashed and driven by their baser instincts. A multitude of media outlets drive narratives of an alternate reality.? They are convinced that the "others" look down on them and mock them and want to take their freedoms away.? They are armed with a victim mentality and they want revenge.? They have infiltrated Congress and police departments in large numbers. Let us not fool ourselves.

I predicted at the beginning of Trump's presidency that he would start a war.? Turns out it's civil, not foreign.? Makes total sense in hindsight. We are in a dangerous place with our democracy.? Luckily, the pro-democracy contingent is larger than the anti-democracy contingent and as long as we stay engaged and committed, we will prevail.?

I believe, sadly, however, that more violence is on the horizon.? 40,000 people attended tRump's call to action and there were protests across the nation.? Somehow, everyone except congressional Democrats knew what was going to happen on January 6th.? The agencies tRump controls facilitated it.? He is a traitor and should be prosecuted and thrown in prison.? I always like to end on that note!!? Have a good day.?

I heard a black activist this morning on Pacifica say he was amused at the "viking" who briefly took over the Congress chamber??

So here is the interview with Kali Akuno:
