    True but I think they can find someone in 2 years. I think AOC will probably be it and radlibs will push each other out of the way in their hurry to vote for her. I remember during the Kamala fiasco seeing people on a discord I was on say they’d vote for her to get a female president to “check that box”. It’s all one big game to them. So I think it’ll be AOCIA and it will absolutely mollify US libs (and a few self-identified socialists who should know better).

      Yes, in the minds of some liberals (probably many actually) a country with a black/woman or both leader cannot be evil or imperialist. Just like my parents scuffed at Biden but had no issue with either Obama or Hillary for no other reason that “well he’s black” or “omg a democratically elected woman”. Truly insane people. I wonder what will happen if Kim Jung Ae takes an official role in DPRK, their heads will probably explode.

        Nothing, the neoliberal media will write 100,000 articles about how she’s the “princess” of the “despotic ruling family” and the libs will nod sagely along, unbothered by any troubling thoughts of cognitive dissonance the next time they get horny for a Michelle / Malia / Sasha or a Hillary / Chelsea royal flush - saving all their energy for a scowl and a magnificent “aw shucks” shrug when you ask them about the Bushes or the Kennedys.

        You cannot change the past but you can make the future And anyone who tells you different is a fucking lethargic devil I don’t look at a few token Latinos and black people in the public eye As some type of achievement for my people as a whole Most of those successful individuals are just sell-outs and house Negros

        But, I don’t consider brothers a sell-out if they move out of the ghetto Poverty has nothing to do with our people It’s not in our culture to be poor That’s only been the last five hundred years of our history Look at the last two thousand years of our existence And what we brought to the world in terms of science, mathematics Agriculture and forms of government
