~~No that's literally what they're doing~~
Ald. Stephanie Coleman (16th Ward), the chair of the Chicago City Council’s Black Caucus, said the subcommittee is likely to be part of the City Council’s Committee on Contracting Equity and Oversight, which is led by Ald. Emma Mitts (37th Ward). That panel will meet for no more than a year, and then transition to a full commission, Coleman told WTTW News.
Edit: I'm going to go back on this specific criticism, as has been pointed out by other commenters, this committee has voiced their intentions to model their program after Evanston, which began with means-testing assistance but had a 2nd phase which instituted "$25,000 in no-strings-attached direct cash payments for those eligible. Black residents who lived in Evanston during a 50-year period of discriminatory zoning laws and their direct descendants receive priority for eligibility."
There's still plenty to criticize around the inefficiencies and contradictions of reparation attempts under liberal democracy, but I don't want to direct my ire at efforts that actually accomplish some material benefit, at least if and until they demonstrate failure. In other words, we should agitate these efforts to do it correctly, and clown on them if they end up with some means-tested liberal nonsense, but not clown on them for attempting it all.

You're laughing. Hamas is plotting to lace all of this year's Halloween candy with cyanide, and you're laughing
The site this seems to be from also defends these quotes with, I kid you not, comparing his advocacy of ethnic cleansing to Washington's owning of slaves, as if it's OK because "Other country's founding leaders did bad stuff, too, but that doesn't mean those countries are all bad!" which only makes sense if you are either a baby-brained liberal or literal ghoul

Gotliv has been a vocal critic of Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu. In September, she accused the Israeli army of working for Palestinian "terrorists and security prisoners," according to The Jerusalem Post.
Jfc, she thinks the IDF under Netanyahu is too soft on Palestinians, so they must be working for them?
Maybe it would be more efficient to release the names of non-Nazis in the Canadian government. Here, I'll start the list:
He's just another left-liberal who thinks THE solution is taxing the wealthy and having stronger unions, as if those are even viable options under a bourgeois democracy.
I stopped even paying attention to him when he first ran under The People's Party, a group of/closely-tied to LaRouchites. I assume the grift is to just get money from whatever Bernie supporters haven't moved further left since 2020? I dunno, anyone still falling for this song and dance should read "Left-Wing" Communism: An Infantile Disorder by
I found the most effective, consistent method of triggering into a blind rage is to simply smile and give them a thumbs up. I wonder if it's something about appearing content and happy while they are bound by all the contradictions and inconveniences of owning a car, especially in a city.
I actually had to stop doing it because one guy sped up so much to beat me to the next red light, he first very nearly hit me on the way and then had to slam on his breaks so hard he lost traction and almost spun out - all this in the middle of a city intersection with narrow roads, no less.
This tracks, there's actually some evidence that drivers behave more dangerously around cyclists wearing helmets.
Scientists should study carbrains more, and try to understand why cyclists trying to protect themselves seems to attract drivers like moths to a flame.
