Prompted by a comment over on PDW about the insane racial and gender makeup of Minnesota government.
There is one straight white guy on the Minneapolis city council, and he is a progressive boomer.
There is one young white male in the Minneapolis mayor’s cabinet, and he uses they/them pronouns.
In neighboring Saint Paul, the entire city council is female. There is one white woman, and she is a communist.
The Twin Cities are 72% white. Probably 35% white male. If it’s like anywhere else in the west, those white men probably pay 95% of taxes.
At what point are we looking directly at a “taxation without representation” situation? It was so important that all of these women and people of color be given positions of authority so that they can represent their race/gender as a constituency. Now these major American cities have almost no political representation for over a third of the population who are also paying for almost everything.
The anti-white, anti-male identity politics of the left are just a thinly veiled justification for industrial scale theft. The left wing alliance have voted themselves into the government offices of professional looting.
A lot of the local problems are originating with the influence of ICLEI (ī-clay is how it’s pronounced), it’s a UN organization that offers all sorts of benefits to every local government in the U.S. so long as they push the kosherized global government policies. I’d be willing to bet there is international money coming into play just to ensure left wing extremists get into positions of power locally, probably funding coming directly from ICLEI, which is really the United Nations, and the United Nations is really just the World Bank, its member nations donate to the UN and the UN uses that money along with the World Bank’s money to subvert government at all levels so all of it, local, state and federal government accept things like demographic displacement through mass immigration, equity policy, and everything related to “sustainability”, the green new deal, all of the climate initiatives, de-industrialization, the carbon credit system that we will see take shape in the next 10 years, it’s all coming from the UN. Read the UN’s SDG’s, aka “sustainable development goals”, there’s a portion in there that mimics Klaus Schwab’s “you will own nothing and like it” idea. It’s a conspiracy of commie technocrat oligarchs and j’w bankers….side note: Elon is a part of that international clique.
