Adams' POV where the two on each side holding him suddenly pin him down, and Shaprton slowly lowers a rag onto his face

[–] Frank@hexbear.net 26 points 1 year ago

Man this has fucking layers

The facist mayor of New York has now multi-classed in to theofascist mayor.

Eric Adams was once Al Sharpton’s bodyguard.

Holy shit. I did not know that.

seeing his absolutely insane deranged behavior getting grilled on breakfast club, i can see why he felt like he needed that.

This sounds like the first part of a Hunter: The Reckoning-esque intro cut-scene:

Gruff ominous voice-over: "On Good Friday, the Mayor, seeking ever increased power and control, performed a Sacred ritual at a locus of great suffering. Three days later, such evil was done that this world will never be the same..."

Regular voice: "Well, it was being done by Israel, had been since October, and doesn't have bearing to our story."

Gruff ominous voice: "But don't let that spoil the mood we're trying to build here..."

NYC about to require qr tattoos to access all public services

[–] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 10 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I know we make fun of him a lot, but I never thought I'd say this, but I really wish Andrew Yang won the primary and became mayor.

What's Eric Adams' goal? Solve the housing crisis by making NYC just as joyless as the rest of the state and hope enough people move out to bring down rent?

Al Sharpton? The "God damn America" guy?

What's he doing paling around with Blueliani?

[–] Leon_Grotsky@hexbear.net 16 points 1 year ago (2 children)

No, God DAMN America guy was Reverend Jeremiah Wright, Al Sharpton's a civil rights guy turned TV talking head

[–] SSJ2Marx@hexbear.net 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Last I saw Sharpton he was on CNN doing anti-immigrant race baiting. He may have been cool at one point but right now the guy's a grifter through and through.

[–] Leon_Grotsky@hexbear.net 9 points 1 year ago

From what I understand he hasn't been "cool" since the 80's but I'd leave it to someone who actually knows more about it to get more specific than that.

[–] CommCat@hexbear.net 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

exact opposite, Jeremiah White was thrown under the bus by Obama while Sharpton has been one of Obama's biggest defenders. He had a confrontation with Cornel West on CNN(?) when West called Obama a war criminal.

[–] Leon_Grotsky@hexbear.net 5 points 1 year ago

You mean Al Sharpton is exact opposite of Jeremiah Wright, or exact opposite of what I said?

I'm pretty sure what I said is a fair characterization but I could maybe word it better.

"Some people say Ayy-Eye-Rev-AI-Sharpton ain't the real deal and I'm just griftin'. I ain't griftin'! I'm just out here trying to make a livin' like we all gotta do. I don't mean to plug something but I need to mention the wisdom in I’m Just Out Here Trying to Make a Livin’ Like We All Gotta Do. I wrote it yesterday. It dropped today at Amazon..."
