ADOS

American Descendant of Slave?

yeah. as far as i know, this is an official website put up by leaders of the movement, which has a lot of interesting info: https://ados101.com/

as far as i can tell, it's a legit grassroots black movement, which is why i'm skeptical of dismissing it as a 'right-wing psyop' no matter how much i disagree with the strategy

It doesn't take much to put two and two together, and see that ADOS is an effort to further subdivide minority interests by claiming only descendants of slaves deserve reparations.

It got co-opted as one pretty much immediately to the point where it's splitting hairs. 4chan likes pushing it too. The magic of the internet is that you don't need to invent strawmen, you just need to find the people somewhere on the internet who are stupid enough to fit the stereotype you want to spread and signal boost them artificially, until you look like an idiot for saying 'No one is saying that' because, statistically, someone is.

this is also how the soviets used to do it, and where we now know the moon landing hoax, cia-invented aids, and nuclear winter campaigns came from

they'd find some crackpot idea, usually being pushed by some fringe academics, and signal boost the hell outta them

while i lean against reparations as a political strategy, i'm sort of agnostic on the subject. this leads me to being sort of agnostic on the subject of ADOS.

can you post any links for further reading, backing up what you're saying? i don't necessarily disbelieve you, but since i'm relatively neutral about the whole thing (esp. as an outside observer), my attitude towards ADOS always comes up as :shrug: i'd read and consider whatever stuff you link, if you so choose, tho

Capitalism is when everyone wins because we create so much wealth. Marx said capitalism is bad, because workers impoverish themselves by having their surplus value extracted by capitalists. Therefore capitalists win and workers lose. Trump thinks there's winners and losers in capitalism, therefore he's Marxist.

The n-word is so bad you can’t even say what the word is. Any word that you can say without a euphemism is definitely not like the n-word.
