#596 Sons of Killmonger & Disciple of Dark Brandon (preview)
TODAY: Democrats seethe as Jon Stewart returns to The Daily Show to give them a dose of reality: Joe Biden is the oldest person to seek election in US history, and his leadership doesn’t bode well for the future of the country. Biden fanboys respond by accusing the comedian of fascism. ALSO: The Christian Right tries to make a case for Christianity’s inclusiveness, using a Super Bowl ad comprised of AI images of political odd couples washing each other’s feet. Their base responds by saying having friends is actually a sin.

I don't think it's I don't know these people like they're just they're reaching so hard I think like they're so fucked with Biden as your as your leader is your party leader you're so you're so fucked and so yeah this is all you can do I liked some some of the specific responses these are the some of the specific ones that stuck out to me
This guy, Sons of Killmonger and Disciple, and you have to go to his actual page to see what his name is, Disciple of Dark Brandon, whose avatar is James Baldwin.
This is insane.
This is insane.
It's the most insane thing I've ever seen on Twitter.
Let's just go to his profile real quick.
He has James Baldwin as saying sons of Killmonger and just like you can't be a son of Killmonger and also a disciple of Dark Brandon.
You can't do those things.
We are.
Oh my God.
We are the ancestors of the men who waited in line all night to vote and if they were in line and they didn't get out of line.
Maybe, maybe they are onto something.
Maybe there is a, maybe there is a democratic plantation that I'm just not aware of.
Like, cause this is, this is brain worms.
This is a, this is fucked up.
To be a, to be a Biden supporter in America is to be in constant state of rage at all times.
Yeah.
Sons of Killmonger and Disciple of Dark Bran- There's three things in this world I love.
James Baldwin, Killmonger, and the guy who liked segregation.
Yeah, and that guy.
What the fuck is wrong with you?
This is purporting some, you know, some good old fashioned, you know, black nationalism, some good old fashioned, like, uh, take, take it back, you know, like, cause if you like Killmonger in the movie, then you, if he, if you saw Killmonger as a good guy, which a lot of people did, myself included at parts, like how do you, how do you reconcile liking Joe Biden.
What do you think Joe Biden is doing for black people?
He's letting them vote for him, Tony.
Look at how many black people voted for Joe Biden and you tell me they don't get some thrill out of that.
That's insane.
It's so interesting.
I remember like the discourse around the original Black Panther being, well, Killmonger was right, obviously, but it's a fucking Disney, Marvel, whatever neoliberal movie.
So they can't actually say, so they have them just like what shoot, shoot a hostage indiscriminately or something like that.
Um, but, uh, no, it's even possible to like whitewash the Killmonger character.
You know, into voting for dark Brandon.
Killmonger would vote for Brandon.
I'm so mad.
I'm so upset right now.
Like I was already like in a bad mood today and this just made me so upset.
Like this, I want, I, I'm going to, you know what?
I'm going to, I'm going to just hope that this is digital blackface.
