“Pick another black person” —capitalize Black when you’re talking about people, and stop acting like you’re casting a role in a movie. It’s tokenism.

I’m Jewish and I’m a Zionist, and I don’t support Israel’s government but I will defend its right to exist until my last breath, and there are a lot of American Jews who feel the same way. Get out of here with your tokenism.

Fuck this. Forget the historic wars. No tokenism at all. Your body is the lamppost with a flag on it. You become a physical billboard for a myth. The people who are putting flags up are the same. You created them because there was no substance behind it.
The British were meant to be understated, not given to overt shows of emotion and always adhering to conservative principles (small C). Now every lamp post in my area has a huge poppy adorning it. As if somehow the sheer acreage of poppies increases their meaning (it does not).

like, are we *trying* for tokenism? because these two have been uniquely useless and counterproductive in the fight against Trumpism.

He never said anything about it being "aesthetic choice". He was talking about tokenism. He did phrase his opinions poorly however.

I know some of them see black leaders as tokens (as they do with other minorities) but these people can’t even do tokenism right.

The idea proven quisling Hakeem Jeffries deserves/earned/should be Speaker of the House just because he’d be the first Black Speaker is just such disgusting tokenism. His ACTIONS over the last 2 years are what has disqualified him.
Ilhan Omar? Now there’s a fighter with a spine of steel.

Also, you don't just give someone a massively important job - that they have repeatedly shown they don't have the moral clarity to do properly - because they happen to be a member of a marginalized group. That's tokenism, and it's grotesque.

The Speaker doesn't have to be a member of the House, no? People are saying Jefferies can't be removed due to his race, so make Warnock house speaker (for reasons beyond tokenism). Schumer and Jefferies must go.

I keep seeing people get this backwards. And while I don’t know if that’s accidental or not, I do know that it is entrenching the worst default kinds of racism (model minority myths, ”noble savages”, contradictory stereotypes, and tokenism) many people have spent centuries undermining.

White supremacists like him absolutely know the perceived value of tokenism. But I agree, more than likely she was already on a short-list somewhere
