    Default Rep. Ayanna Pressley: "We Don't Need Any More Brown Faces That Don't Want To Be A Bro

    Hmmm. How many "inclusive" and "diverse" liberal Democrats on this board agree with this obvious racist bigot? This was brought up earlier on some thread. I noticed Democrats all ran the other way.


    Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA) speaks at Netroots Nation conference on Saturday: "I don't want to bring a chair to an old table. This is the time to shake the table. This is the time to redefine that table. Because if you're going to come to this table, all of you who have aspirations of running for office. If you’re not prepared to come to that table and represent that voice, don’t come, because we don't need any more brown faces that don't want to be a brown voice. We don’t need black faces that don't want to be a black voice. We don't need Muslims that don’t want to be a Muslim voice. We don’t need queers that don't want to be a queer voice. If you’re worried about being marginalized and stereotyped, please don't even show up because we need you to represent that voice."

    Was there any reference to 'white faces'? Any reference to 'unity'?

    Apparently not to minority Democrat politicians. Ones of color anyway. Or gay. They will tell you what you are and how to act like it.

    I think you are lumping some into a large group and are assuming the large group is represented by the few. (?)

    No I am not doing that. You see Democrats are like lemmings falling off a cliff. They will just follow whomever the "new" star is in the party. Whatever the flavor of the day is. No rhyme, no reason. Just follow blindly.

    And Sailor pitches another one into the stands.

    Get a point and then come back, dumbass. She's referring to tokenism, and apparently thinks minorities of all kinds are selling out to the man.

    What a stupid stretch. Go ahead and break your back trying to make this work. Stupid fucking whataboutism fail...

    PS she isn't my potus anyway. What do I care if some low level pol tries to reclaim shit white men say in smoke filled rooms to make a point about
    racists and selling out to power. God you are a stupid loser. Just sail your stupid boat and STFU. You don't know anything.

    That is more limpwristed than your usual responses. What she said is quite clear to anyone with intellect and the ability to read. Two qualities you lack severely. You poor dumb white liberal bastard.

    Pressley is a nasty vile bigoted racist. Anyone else who supports socialist identity politics is, too.

    Socialism is just the modern word for monarchy.

    D.C. has become a Guild System with an hierarchy and line of accession much like the Royal Court or priestly classes.
