We got the guillotine you better run
I took a couple of friends of mine, a married couple of marvel-pilled turbo libs, to see “Sorry to Bother You” as they were constantly pressing me about my worldview. After it was over I got hit with a one-two of “It was incoherent” and “I think you’re reading to much into it” and it hurt me deep.
boots should get israeli citizenship just to piss them off
probably shouldn’t give Israel the ability to extradite him and put him in jail for political crimes or whatever
That’s impossible, he’s black
Isn’t military service compulsory there? In which case, he most certainly should not.
Only for like 19 year olds or w/e.
probably been on a blacklist for years
Play on words?
That really is the difference isn’t it?
We have principles, we stand by them and we do not respect those who stand against us
And that is exactly why they are terrified of us
What has prevented him from being merked?
Probably not being a huge celebrity, right?
he’s an artist. nothing scary about an artist.
Isn’t there a Vonnegut quote about artists not mattering when faced with state power?
Found it:
Every respectable artist in this country was against the war. It was like a laser beam. We were all aimed in the same direction. The power of this weapon turned out to be that of a custard pie dropped from a stepladder six feet high
Went to high school with some Ethiopian Jews, they stayed in Israel for a while but had a lot of issues with discrimination and constantly having that part of their identity questioned,
boots rielys maternal grandma is an ashkenazi jew who fled the holocaust! and since its passed down maternally the white jews shouldnt even question him, right? RIGHT?!?!
Correct, and I will kick the ass of anyone who disagrees.
hell yeah!
He’s always been this based honestly. Before Twitter you could find his official account on hip hop message boards block-of-texting mfs about Tiananmen
tbh i’m always afraid of scratching the surface of anyone in hollywood that seems based at first because i’m always disappointed
but every time i accidentally learn something about Boots Riley i’m always so impressed
Boots is the
of hip hop - an open communist public figure standing out in the rain railing against the end of history, all while somehow having only good takes.Honestly he’s even better than Parenti, who said some (minor) questionable things that didn’t age great.
Woah he’s like super based
I think he’d fit in here
He’s a poster alright
He was literally part of a hiphop group called the coup tthat titled their first album Kill my Landlord so yea
Their first album opens with:
Presto, read the Communist Manifesto.
Guerillas in the mist, a Guevara named Ernesto, so
(What a brother with a afro know?)
Yo, go and flow for the mack and be the hoe.
So grow cause the lynchin’ brothers might get hung,
better rip through em from the tip of my Mao Tse-tung.
He’s the modern Dalton Trumbo
He just stays winning
