I knew she and other non-Black politicians associated with her couldn't be trusted from the start. Even Bernie "reparations is not feasible" Sanders has shown that he cannot be trusted either. Elizabeth "a check for what" Warren also revealed her true faux Native American colors. And young preppy white gay Pete Buttigieg has shown to be rather passive aggressive, polished covert racist and not an ally, especially when his mess in South Bend, Indiana got revealed and then he and the white media went on damage control and tried to shame, vilify, and guilt Black people into "hearing him out" so he can look good for the cameras and clean his PR image.
Despite having the California Reparations Task Force, Gavin Newsom has also shown that he is a more young, but polished, pretty, calculated, covert Luciferian type of racist with a fake smile. From the Bruce's Beach scam, to prioritizing illegal aliens and everyone else over Black residents, to turning a blind eye to the continuous Black displacement / homelessness / gentrification and the anti-Black racist cops and officials in California, to recently smiling and cheering with openly racist Afrikaner Elon Musk and doing business with him again in spite of Tesla being repeatedly sued for anti-Black racist discrimination and practices. Every time I see Gavin Newsom, I see a younger, slicker version of Joel Osteen and that's not a good thing or a compliment by the way.
Gabe Piemonte, a pro-reparations politician who Marcel cosigned, recently lost his election and received mainly lukewarm / mixed responses from wary Black people who were not confident that Gabe was truly for and with us. And the same skepticism that they gave Gabe is probably the same skepticism that I felt with pro-reparation politicians like Marianne Williamson and Julián Castro.
Julián Castro was proudly for reparations and talked a good game like AOC tried to. He was pandering to the heavens and I was even open to voting for him. However, I still can't put my finger on it, but something about his vibe seemed and still seems to me. Almost like he seems disingenuous in a Gavin Newsom / Joel Osteen type of way. On top of that, he supports open borders and illegal immigration, something that will undermine us and it makes me wonder if he would try to shoehorn Latinos into our reparations claim too.
With Marianne Williamson, I knew was a little cuckoo and off, but I gave her the benefit of doubt and assumed that maybe she would prove that she meant well. But when she eventually stated that Black people as a whole should only get a few billion dollars total and seemed iffy on rather or not that reparations should be cash, I backed off her. I don't know why some Black people where still hyping her like she was a Black Jesus who sliced sweet Hawaiian bread after she tried to play in our faces with that lowball offer. A few billion dollars is barely a drop in the bucket. We need at the very least 20 trillion to start.
I agreed with most of your post but not this:
"These individuals don't just go off on a rant talking and being overly emotional or aggressive like TBA and Prof Black Truth(although he does quote sources sometimes). These guys come off so emotional that they will easily be dismissed as being crazy by older people."
I introduced older relatives to videos by TBA and Prof Black Truth. One liked Prof Black's delivery and content and the other took a look at a TBA video. Though some of the videos I sent to certain people of all ages weren't well-received, but that's either because they're not serious enough about Black Empowerment, they're apathetic, or they identify with the Dems and the "we're all in this together" narrative that the media keeps pushing.
