A black bourgeoisie perspective on U.S. politics
Since I went pretty hard at Jake Tapper on Friday, I feel like it’s only fair that I make sure people hear his side of the story. This is the statement he sent to Greg Sargent:
“I’m trying to use Twitter as a way to communicate with all sorts of people from all over the political spectrum, as a place for feedback, polite argument, and dialogue. I learned that the AP was taking Coach K’s quote out of context from a Tweet; it ended up on Good Morning America this morning. I want this way to talk to people. I don’t want it to turn into what the comment section of my blog has become. The only people who have been blocked are people who make ad hominem attacks. They’re still fully able to read my Tweets — I just don’t care to read theirs.”
I’ve already made my argument, so I’m not going to comment.
