Da Chase Algorithm saved you famb.They almost got me for the lifetime joint . Chase declined the payment because my account was a flag for some fraudulent purchases (I didn't know that at the time). Can't believe I am saying this, but praise Jah for identity theft.
Yeah, the way some of their articles handles race issues are very problematic. It almost like they acknowledge racism and race issues only for them to downplay its overall role in something.
For example the article you posted. They praise Richard Ojeda for the massive swing he was able to achieve in his very red district. They argue that this was a result of his solidly leftist class politics, but that is a half-truth. Ojeda voted for Trump in 2016, he refuses to sign onto the civil rights platform of the Democratic party, he signals to his white voting base that he is not against white supremacy and the only economic justice he is interested in, is for of white people. He didn't beat the national average for Dems in the midterms in West Virginia just by being a left-wing economic populist, he did it by tacitly letting white voters know he was not a threat to the system of white supremacy. Stuff like that irks the hell out of me.
