At least the Democrats wouldn’t round up the homeless and put migrants in cages! No Democrat would ever hold black men in prison for slave labor even after they are exonerated! No Democrat would support the genocide of Palestinians! Harm reduction!
Kamala Harris made headlines last week when she joked in a radio interview that of course she smoked marijuana in her younger years: “Half my family’s from Jamaica. Are you kidding me?”
But the crack didn’t go over well with at least one Jamaican: Donald J. Harris, her father.
The elder Harris sent an unsolicited statement to Kingston-based Jamaica Global Online, for which the emeritus professor of economics at Stanford University wrote a recent essay on his family’s history.
“My dear departed grandmothers (whose extraordinary legacy I described in a recent essay on this website), as well as my deceased parents, must be turning in their grave right now to see their family’s name, reputation and proud Jamaican identity being connected, in any way, jokingly or not with the fraudulent stereotype of a pot-smoking joy seeker and in the pursuit of identity politics,” he wrote.
“Speaking for myself and my immediate Jamaican family, we wish to categorically dissociate ourselves from this travesty,” he added.
There are few people more dangerous than fascists who have read Marx. How do we survive her presidency?

She’s read Marx? I just thought her father did.
