If I'm not mistaken he's working with Ezra Klein to push the Democrats to embrace racism instead of popular economic measures.
Edit: I expect that these guys will try to make a J.D. Vance style Republican pivot in the next 4-8 years.
Second Edit:
Ezra Klein's recent interview with Ta-Nehisi Coates is very specifically why I expect he will pivot to being a Republican in the near future.
Listen closely. Ezra Klein will not under any circumstances utter the words "Black People".
Again and again, Coates brings up issues that Black People face in America, and Klein diverts by pretending that Coates is talking about Marginalized Groups in general or Trans People in particular.
Klein's political movement is about eradicating discussion of racial discrimination from the Democratic party.
Third Edit:
@calmoo: I think you're not listening to the nuances of my opinion, and instead having an intense emotional reaction to my well-justified claims of racism.
We're very off topic, but if you're truly interested in Ezra Klein's worldview, I highly recommend his recent interview with Ta-Nehisi Coates. At minimum, I think you'll discover that Ezra's feelings are a lot more nuanced than you're making them out to be.
I don't really want to discuss politics off the bat of my purely 'for your information' comment, but I think you're grossly misrepresenting Ezra Klein's worldview and not listening to the nuances of his opinion, and instead having an intense emotional reaction to his words. Take a step back and try to think a bit more rationally here.
Also your prediction of them making a JD vance republican pivot is extremely misguided. I would happily bet my life savings against that prediction.
