Chaser.
I still don't know how Shaun King is and at this point I'm too afraid to ask.

It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this.
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

He was involved with Bernie Sanders campaign, did a lot of great work according to Bernie (he’s a grifter)
I was like I refuse to watch a YouTube video about this. Good, it's a Twitter link. There's a damn 10 minute video embedded. Well played 
I have come back to this comment three times now and each time I laugh myself to tears lol
It's fuckin wild how this org claims ignorance on this tbh. He's been a known grifter for YEARS.
ok but can we please do this to right wing people? i'm about to start a Jan 6th hostages PAC and keep all the money, it seems like such a good grift.
Yes. Uncritical support.
Pow/mia jan6! Donate today so our team of brave patriots can travel to China to ~~party~~ discover if hundreds of patriots were sent to China for... uh... reasons! Donate now!
We should actually try this. Would be an incredible bit.
I am 100% serious.
Ya’ll don’t realize how eternally online we are compared to the average person
on the knuckles of my left fist "Never Log Off"
on the knuckles of my right fist "PPB is Life"
Ah yes Shaun "How do you do fellow Black people" King
I think he might actually be mixed race, and I am not about to do blood quantum shit to argue one way or another, but he is a very well known grifter and it's incredible that this org actually took him seriously enough to book him before getting publicly raked over the coals for it.
Yeah it's not that he's pale, it's that he integrates his black identity into his grifts and as such is constantly bringing it up even if his opinion isn't called for in the first place
I used to hate Rachel Dolezal more but tbh if this guy pivoted to feet OnlyFans that would be a better than the bullshit he's doing now so 
I guess 
I mean look at that fucking keffiyeh, 
This guy is making big $$ like a lot of other BLM grifters (not surprising when corporate money is being thrown around), last I heard Dolezal got fired from her last teaching job.
Imagine calling this piece of shit grifter a civil rights icon lmao
I went to an interfaith iftar that was everything you would expect, the speakers talked about peace, forgiveness, community, read from the Koran and sang prayers. I went to the an iftar by the same group last year and literally the only speeches were thanks to corporate sponsors (apparently the key organizers were all wealthy Muslim doctors and hospital execs, and all of the sponsors were medical providers and insurance companies), then a brief speech by the mayor about how diversity or tolerance as an abstract idea is nominally worth having. I kinda regret missing it this year, because I truly wonder if they could've not mentioned Gaza this year.
How is he still doing this? I haven't heard anyone say anything good about him in years.
