How do american leftists here feel about the New Black Panther Party?
I usually assume they're a shittier version of the old BPP, but I've recently found out about a prison organizer called Rashid and he seems to have some support from leftists and some left-wing credentials:
NBP are the reactionary black supremacists that stupid right wingers think the original black panthers were. There's a reason why the surviving panthers want nothing to do with them.
Juan Fisher
Most leftists/liberals have never heard of them. Those that do are deathly afraid of them and want the government to ban both guns and islam because it's scary to them.
For context, remember that the vast majority of people who remember who the black panthers were actually REMEMBER it. As in, they're old enough to remember the 1960s and 70s when they were active. They're crusty old boomers who left the Republican party in the 90s due to their "unreasonable" turn against gun control, which is still a thing they support and promote within the Democratic Party.
Meanwhile black panthers are generally well known and liked on the right due to their support for open carry, pics related from the infamous Sacramento protest that caused California Governor Ronald Reagan to ban open carrying of firearms in 1967.

Did you even read the thread? Stop posting without doing an ounce of reading.
Wyatt Moore
Idpol fucking dumpster fire filled to the brim with steaming shit
Jaxson Bell
pure ideology
Alexander Stewart
The fact that leftist even tolerate this shit lmao. Even we get to the point of a revolution white and blacks will segregate because niggas like that run wild.
Hudson Peterson
they suck, old Panthers rocked my socks though
Gavin Parker
This isn't the New Black Panther Party. This is the New Afrikan Black Panther Party which isn't affiliated with the NBPP and is definitely more in line with the original party's mission statement.
Hudson Long
The new black panther party is still shit no matter which way you cut it. I'm sure this Rashid bloke is well read but I can guarantee you that the rest of the party is not.
That's the original Panthers; the remaining ones of them pretty much universally hate NBPP.
Parker Barnes
NBPP is poo.
But apparently this is a different, possibly less shit group.
Lolno
Michael Davis
lol what
Aiden Reyes
I would like to add that the NBPP had a huge leadership change back in 2013, and the group isnt very tightly organized. I still see a lot of potential in them along with the NABPP.
Henry Wright
How is being described as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center a badge of honor? Are you retarded?
Anthony Price
theyre not socialist theyre pure idpol. its richard spencer in blackface
Joshua Morales
You are so wrong about the right liking the BPP. I've never seen any praise. They always call them terrorists/communists and demand they be jailed. There is a complete double standard right wingers hold. They only like it when 3%'ers and NSM larpers come out with AR's. Anything else is bad to them.
Jordan Torres
Yeah, the problem i have with "well read" people is they are usually either enemies or allies, usually no in between.
I'm always suspicious of people who "love history" because it means they're usually some crypto fascist and love revising it to fit their own personal bigotry.
Leo Collins
To any right winger, a nigger carrying a gun is a criminal and a terrorist.
Zachary James
to reiterate, OP is actually talking about the New Afrikan Black Panther Party, made out of the prison chapters of the original party, a different party to the New Black Panther Party
Adam Murphy
^this is so true
Luke Davis
Watered down CIA honeypot and racist black folk.
Chase Kelly
Meet The New Boss. Same As The Old Boss
Parker Bennett
to everyone, an autist carrying a gun is illegal but nogs can still carry weapons?
Adrian Perez
Of course. They're not autistic, retard.
Lucas Morris
Why is Bell Hooks in lowercase?
Chase Watson
It’s how she styles her nome de plume
Hunter Murphy
Autist with guns? Well, they do let nazis and cuckservatives have them.
Ayden Ramirez
She's trapped in the 90s like the rest of the post-modern idpol left.
Jack Edwards
Just a bunch of brainlet racists with guns with connections to a bullshit racist religion Nation of Islam.
Nathaniel Reed
New one is shit. Old one was pretty based.
Owen Wood
Why is everybody ignoring the fact that the NABPP isn't the NBPP and is an anticapitalist organization trying to promote class solidarity in prisons?
Lucas Taylor
My mistake. Similarities in name like that are terrible for outsiders like me.
Do you guy have any opinion about the NABPP then? Is it good, and is it in the same spirit of the original BPP?
