    Puts me in such an uncomfortable spot

    I’m white too. If you sincerely believe you’re being honest with yourself and you’re being honest to the world - it’s all good.

    -–

    In a coincidence - I saw this Bluesky post just ~2 minutes ago where the poster indirectly compares Booker to MLK Jr.

    People are out here underestimating the power of speeches like “I Have a Dream” wasn’t a speech. Staawp it. You look silly. Speeches have the power to move people—that’s why they want to bully people into silence, and that’s why we’re going to be louder than ever.

    Gimme a break. I’m 100% certain Booker gave that speech for a possible 2028 presidential run. All the DC democrats are self-serving, arrogant jerks.
