      And I'm not sure why you're calling it convenient as if the leaders are all over everything and then they are gone when they should be around. I don't think I've ever heard one of the founders of *** actually speak. It seems to be that they purposely intend to have no specific leadership.

      Here is one write up on it.


      This one talks about the organizers of protests in New York...that are a different group than ***, which speaks to my point that not all of the organizers in the "*** protests" are ***.


      I'm seeing now that there are tons of write ups that express exactly what I've been saying.
      Their expressed beliefs consist of �dismantling?this and �disrupting?that. All these Marxist groups want to tear down the existing social structure and rebuild it from the ground up. If they focused more on doing for the community they purport to be representing, and less on instigating some type of revolution, they�d accomplish a lot more.

      I�m saying it�s convenient, because having it structured like that, alleviates any actual responsibility on individuals. From what you say here, they�re similar to Al Quada.

        Dude, you do realize that people have drawn up plans already regarding how to do this. I've already shared William Darrity's plan. It's not a vaguely defined group at all.


        Asheville was just recently in the news for dealing with this issue, so there is no reason to believe there are barriers that would make it impossible.
        Go get it legislated then, what do want from me? Those 2 situations were obviously further along than having the coveted opinions of some economist.

          Ok. But you have to say what specifically they want to dismantle and disrupt.

          We disrupt the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement by supporting each other as extended families and �villages?that collectively care for one another, especially our children, to the degree that mothers, parents, and children are comfortable.

          We dismantle the patriarchal practice that requires mothers to work �double shifts?so that they can mother in private even as they participate in public justice work.

          We are self-reflexive and do the work required to dismantle cisgender privilege and uplift Black trans folk, especially Black trans women who continue to be disproportionately impacted by trans-antagonistic violence.
          This is from their website. I see 3 mentions of disrupt/dismantle. I don't see why any of it would upset anyone honestly. I'm not trying to convince you to support them. I honestly just don't understand the issue.

          Meanwhile, there are various accomplishments that came from the protests (again, not all the work of ***). Some were listed in the video I sent you the other day.

            I don't want anything from you. You were presenting a bunch of barriers that don't exist. I'm just explaining why it is that they don't exist.

                  No, I presented my opinions on why I don�t agree with doing it at all. The main barrier is not having a coherent plan or having done the necessary legal legwork. That barrier still exists.

                    Dude, that's not a barrier. There are various plans that have been presented. Just watch the interview.




                    This is my issue with this subject. People try to present reasons that it would be too difficult to do, but they haven't even looked into anyone attempting to do the legwork. If you are simply against reparations, that's fine, as I believe most of the excuses brought up is simply a front for being against it anyway (not accusing you specifically.) But pretending it's too hard, there have been no plans, or that there is no precedent just isn't accurate.
