West said he would prioritize fighting to end poverty by providing a “living wage” for all, healthcare for all and guaranteed housing.
He also mentioned fighting mass incarceration and climate change as part of his platform.
Included in his announcement video was a clip from a 2022 interview with comedian Bill Maher, during which he bemoaned the fact Americans had to choose between “neofascists” like former President Donald Trump and “milquetoast neoliberals” like President Joe Biden.
He also accused Republicans and Democrats of not wanting to tell what he called the “truth” about the Ukraine war and the Pentagon, as well as Wall Street and Big Tech.
Available endings : [SPOILERS]
- Good ending : gets elected, can’t do shit, nothing fundamentally changed
- Socdem ending : gets elected, pushes hardcore neoliberal agenda like no one ever could
- Small candidate ending : gets 1% of votes until he dies of old age
- Bernie ending : tries to be the Dems candidate, be called a tankie by the DNC, loses the primary election to Nancy Pelosi
- CIA ending : is just too popular, 17 bullets in the back, ruled as s*****de
- Recycled ending - DeSantis wins and liberals, instead of genuinely taking to heart the betrayal of the working class by warmongering Democrats, let their racism/classism show when they blame West and poor minority voters for being spoilers.
providing a “living wage” for all
It’s the bloody Gotha program all over again. What is “living wage”? Who decides that? Perhaps we should abolish wage slavery to begin with?
Yeah im always curious what they think my life is worth
In Gotha program, they used the term “just pay”. Same shit, different century
What is “Classic Learning”? Cause if it’s supported by republicans I can only assume it involves religious indoctrination of some kind.
That doesn’t make any sense.
All talk, no action
Interesting, but unfortunately running for president is undignified if not downright damning IMO.
Part of me would have hope he would be serious about this. Part of me has to wonder if this is a grift to rake in donations.
You forgot the scare quotes, “Left-Wing” Academic Cornel West…
