(4,775 posts)I would be interested in questions such as: what is the linkage? They are being used, how exactly? What connects them to the corporatist side of things (assuming that premise is correct)? I think an inquiry into that question would be very fruitful, even if nothing is there and it just disproves that they are being used in any way by the 1% wing.
I would think black voters would be able to sniff out a phony if they are just being used (not necessarily, far too many people are taken in by good marketing and the desire to side with a winning brand), so I'm wondering what they see is in it for them? I see little more than empty rhetoric and showcase roles where power is not going to challenged in any way, surely that's not what black people want?
