Opinion of Shaun King

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Disgusting vile human trash.

[🦀🎂🦀🎂]

Don't really know what he's done to be considered "disgusting vile trash", but he does confuse me. I know Americans are married to the one drop role, but I think it's a stretch to consider him black.

What did he do?

[Orthogonian Society Treasurer]

A White man, and therefore deeply evil.

[Stand With Israel. Crush Hamas]

A god-awful purveyor of Fake News (TM).

[Kung Fu Kenny]

Professional instigator.

It doesn't seem like he's done anything disgusting to me. If anything, I'm questioning whether or not you're vile human trash.

He's a slanderous disgusting wretched liar.

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

I like how he fights the alt-Right. I don't understand why you would consider him a "disgusting vile human trash"

Scary darkies, presumably.

Wow. Are you seriously that dense? I explained it literally two posts above.

Saying that X is likely to happen and then X not happening is not lying. It's just being wrong.

Disgusting vile human trash.

i wouldn't go that far, but he is a HP and a stupid SJW tool

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

He also turned on Bernie for endorsing and campaigning for Hillary. I've hated him ever since that.

[America's Sweetheart ❤/𝕿𝖍𝖊 𝕭𝖔𝖔𝖙𝖞 𝖂𝖆𝖗𝖗𝖎𝖔𝖗]

Not a fan but I wouldn't say he's a HP. However he isn't black (both his parents are white) so in that regard he's like Rachel Dolezal.

He's a good guy. If we exiled anyone for making a political prediction that turned out to be wrong this website wouldn't exist.

Didn't you vote for Hillary though? He wanted to crucify Bernie for endorsing her and giving her his donor list. Was a truly deranged #BernieOrBuster.

     He has claimed that his mom cheated with a black man in order to justify his endless racebaiting, even though he is about as black as milk.

The original rumor (that Doug Jones is going to appoint an all-white senior staff because he "feels burdened" to appeal to white conservatives) doesn't strike me as particularly believable:

1) The idea that conservatives would be impressed with an "all-white senior staff" in this day and age is flawed, and is pretty telling as to how King thinks: he (or whoever he heard this from)  is basically imagining a mirror image of the elite liberal tendency to measure progress by how many women, People of Color, and LGBT people an organization employs. For example, take the handwringing last year over how Trump's cabinet was the whitest and most male in recent memory: relatively little attention was paid to how wealthy the cabinet was or to how little government experience it had, and not enough attention was paid to the fact that it was by most measures the most hard-right of any cabinet in history. There's an annoying tendency in much  of the Left to view appointing women and people of color, even those with reactionary views, as progress: you even see it on Atlas to some degree, with people thinking that Nikki Haley, Tim Scott, and Condoleeza Rice must be nice moderates when they very clearly are not.
2) Jones's campaign shows that he doesn't care about pandering to racist conservatives
3) This isn't the 60s or 70s, when a Southern senator having black senior staff would have been  much more groundbreaking than it is now. Nowadays most people on either side probably wouldn't care, and anyone who would see lack of Black senior staff as a positive won't be voting Democratic anyway.

An instigator who does more harm than food for his causes.

The irony is that he was originally very critical of Bernie before he supported him.  However, that might have been a requirement for his job since he was working for DailyKos then. Not that the New York Daily News (excluding him) is anything but hostile to Bernie.
