Looks Like Louisiana is going to stay a Slave State

Imo Better than it'll be now. but hey, if that's what they want then so be it. We shall see how this works out.
Seem ole lesser of the two evils patch…doesn’t seem be getting people to the polls anymore :dunno: Dems make you believe they’re going to do shit and don’t . Republicans let you know they aren’t going to do shit for you :dunno:
 
Gotcha fuck your future when football and carnival season are taking place……..lol

Basically and it's unfortunate, because the same people who won't vote because they rather be at second-line, crawfish boil, or travel for a Saints game, are the same ones in City Hall crying when the white transplants are complaining about brass bands, Mardi Gras Indians or tearing down 150-year-old shotgun houses or getting laws passed to curtail culture in the city.

Elections have consequences.

But republicans work against you and the entire country, so you can see where the difference is.

But I'll say this, we need better options. I'm a Bernie bro so believe me I'm not happy with our politicians, We've definitely been voting between the lesser of two evils but I'm not sure if not voting and not caring is the solution, especially since most who aren't voting aren't doing it as a statement, instead they just don't care which is not good for the future.

Welp, there's always Canada and the Netherlands lol
 
35+ messages in.
Not one Votep has mentioned what tangible (LOVE that word) the people would receive for voting for the democrat candidate they're championing for lol.

Maybe I missed something?

But if we list stuff like maintaining federal consent decrees, coastal restoration, funding for HBCUs and other post-secondary educational systems, you'll dismiss that because it doesn't line up with the Nasheedian Doctrine.

Yes but voting for someone working against you or voting for someone who isn’t going to do shit for you isn’t a great selling point which has been my point….How about actually doing something? Have a message, a plan and energize people to come out. Do better than I’m a Democrat.
 
Neither are politicians…
But that’s the trick isn’t it. People don’t realize they have the power to vote those politicians out. It’s not about the politicians, at all! It’s about the citizenry understanding they can change who those politicians are by simply going to vote. Even though blacks are a smaller percentage of the population, since such a small percentage of the overall population votes, if blacks vote in a higher percentage than normal then they can control who’s in office.

If only it was that easy. Here in Philadelphia, there’s a lady running for mayor. I’m not voting for her and she will still be the next mayor of Philadelphia. She made an allegiance with a perpetual loser Bob Brady and she gets to walk around saying things that are clearly meant to be uttered by white men and not a black woman. But that’s what they do: they take the apathy and keep on chugging.

I have read over the last week that some democrats will not vote for Biden because of the Israel situation. I can see their argument. It’s hard to swallow the fact that your political party leader is a CAC. I’m sure there will the millionth story about Kamala Harris disappearance by the “media” to help add oxygen to that fire.

Exactly but you have to MAKE people want to get out and vote. Energize your base seems as if we only get up for general elections

They aren't about to give us anything. Just continue to use boogeyman tactics and threats to get votes as the OP suggests it will become a slave state without voting. Only option is worse or status quo while everyone else gets something from their vote. And these dumbasses will continue to waste their votes that have no leverage and think they are making progress. There are too many cowards to want real change and we make moves based on childish fears. Only way to accomplish actual progress is to move like a union.

Okay, y'all are freezing me out of the conversation, that's fine but Tariq Nasheed's one-issue, hold-your-vote strategy is not going to work. As long as there is a gulf and hurricanes, that shit will not work.

I posted links from Reddit that showed the issues with the Louisiana democratic party and Katie Bernhardt and you niggas ignored it, so fuck it.

You should have kept the link up.

You're mischaracterizing what I said to fit your narrative.

Not every state is a this or that option because of how elections are ran state to state.
 
There are some good comments under that tweet.

The bill is real and passed the state house. I can't find if it passed the senate or not.




First of all why is a 13 year old committing a crime lets talk about that? When I lived there a few months ago certain areas you couldn't drive to because muthafuckas was shooting on the fucking interstate, shooting on the bridge and other places and all these were done by people under 18.
 
While I certainly agree with the Republicans (and Jeff Landry) on issues such as stopping kids from transitioning before 18 and keeping sexually explicit shit out of schools, I don't want Louisiana to jump into these culture wars when Louisiana has more important shit to focus on, such as keeping young people here and protecting itself against storms.

Hurricanes are supposed to lose strength once they make landfall but the coast is so weak that when Ida made landfall it didn't lose strength until it damn near got to Baton Rouge. Coastal restoration, and adequate flood protection.

If crime, poverty, the insurance crisis, overall cost of living don't drive people away, the threat of constant "once-in-a-hundred" year storms will. Most of us who survived Katrina have stated that we won't be back if another Katrina-like storm comes. Ida was Katrina-like, it was powerful and very slow-moving, it sat over the city of New Orleans for hours and could have done more damage had it packed more ran, it was a more windy hurricane.

Now with Jeff Landry, his agenda is to basically be a Cajun version of DeSantis. This state's colorful, checkered, and complex history which people are working to preserve, including people of his own ethnic group will now be put in the book-banning, woke category. Tourism will be impacted, that's money lost and potential for more because Louisiana is headed into the culture wars.

If you want to make that argument, fine, but expose ALL the criminals and not just the BLACK ones. White kids aren't out stealing cars, committing robberies and sexually assaulting folks? There is the belief that white kids go through "phases" and black kids are inherently defective. White kids are seen as in need of guidance, and black kids have character defects that can only be punished and controlled by the penal system. So while Tyrone gets in with a bad crowd and has his failings follow him around for life, Billy gets to turn his life around and move on from his past mistakes because (white) boys will be boys and all go participate in a lil mischief and rebellion. If you don't see that as a problem, then I don't know what to tell you.
 
Watch this... I don't tell people who to vote for. First of all don't assume my agenda and your agenda is the same just because we are both Black. I know who I'm voting for and 9 chances out of 10 it won't be a democrat.

SMH. Thanks to democrats you had 140k in student loans forgiven and a 9k refund.

I woke up yesterday and looked at my email and saw my loans were forgiven. 141k



I felt like going on the top building in Houston and dancing like ODB.


Thanks brother. That shit is a game changer for my life.

I think the email I received is they are cancelling the principal of 56k or 57k and the rest of that was interest.

Part 2 of my student loan story. I go to the mailbox yesterday to check my mail seeing what bill is coming in. I see an envelope from the treasury dept. Inside is a check for $9k refund for loans.

And I'm going to respond to you like I respond to my sister when she tell me about why I never dog white women. I'm not around them muthafuckas, I don't date them muthafuckas and I don't care about them muthafuckas. I'll say this about Black kids I'm around them, and at one time I was one of them and damn I'm a Black man. You don't think I've experienced being treated differently from these crackas. I've been on this planet 52 muthafucking years and its one thing my mama and daddy never had to tell me. "you can't do what them white people do. Billy will get several chances to make mistakes, Tyrone don't have one chance to make a mistake. Black people can't do stupid shit. I say that to little Tyrone making the block hot and I say that to Mayor Cleophus taking bribes.

Thanks to Joe Biden who had a hand in creating the student loan crisis in the 80s. So basically he fucked over two groups of people in the 80s and the 90s. The street dudes doing crimes so they could take care of their families and the square dudes going to school taking out loans so they could try to take care of their families. And why should I vote for this dude again?

You're being intentionally obtuse. This isn't about personal interactions. This is about codifying in law, something that is meant to harm black folks and give an advantage to white folks. If you are going to expose juvenile criminal records, white folk or folk in wealthy areas should not be exempt. Period. You want to allow something that someone does at 13 to affect their earning potential all their lives and not let them be able to allow them to mature and overcome their past, then let it be across the board. White kids are already going to be able to argue they were young and dumb and get it accepted, because when it comes to white folks they don't really care if they are criminals or not. White felons are already able to get jobs easier than black folk without a criminal record. You want to let them be able to pretend they were model citizens growing up, while the government is making sure you know whether or not a black kid was.

WTF?

Why should ADOS care about this ?

When Tariq is a talking point, it shows you rather deflect than talk about real issues like inflation and student loans.

Your message isn't resonating.

Maybe you should say less.

Typical. You don't hold yourself accountable and you want the same for your handlers.

Told you that your nincompoop buddies would do so much damage that they would lose support. No amount of words on these boards can equal DNC incompetence.

They better come up with a plan in the next 30 days because it's going to get worse and they will continue to lose support

Chicago is a lone example of why people like you and the people you support should never be in power.

Now it's time for the grown ups to take control and restore order. The entire world is tired of this mess and are ready for adult time.

Playtime is over children. It's been fun while it's lasted but enough is enough.

Because if there is no coastal protection, there is no Southern Louisiana.

It'll become a hurricane punching bag that people will be forced to leave because it will become overwhelmingly unsafe to live on.
