  1. “…Last episode, we floated the question: Is Mario Testa a white savior? But before we can get into race and racism in Bridgeport, we have to start with ourselves…”

    If they’re on Episode 5, it’s obvious they’ve gotten “into race and racism” some time ago. They should’ve started with themselves in Episode 1. Lennie, why not afford Bridgeport Gen Now and opportunity to some OIB Podcasts-remember them? After all BGN has been a persistent and active organization in Bridgeport.

  3. Is Mario Testa a white savior?

    You better hope and pray, “if you’re a believer” he’s not. Considering you relegated and debased him to a cartoon, Nintendo caricature, who is corrupt, beating him in head with a bag of AB 🙂

    You are taking about the Port, right? 🤣

    Considering there are 190 plus nation on this planet with thousands of languages it is fair to say this is a racial world. but in your journey, are you just living in? Considering you used the word “White” attached describe Mario you might be playing with it. On the positive note, at least you didn’t say, Is Mario Testa our “mayonnaise” savor? 🤣

    Gen Now, Ports racial, racism savor, coming to a roof-top bar near you. 🙂

    I am somewhat disappointed you didn’t share the good news that Port’s Police Chief, Porter, expressed about crime in the Port where you want to set up shop for that roof top bar. Is it not in your play book to save the Port form racism? As well as the rally on the UI Poles. Is racism/ vie elected people platform your one concern for the Port? They didn’t/do have election and racism in Hartford?

    To be fair. A savor one said, forgives them father they no not what they do. But based at the editorial rights on your hit pieces for Mario and G2 over these past Port elections when you graced the Port with your “committed practitioners to combat racism” that I can find for entertainment purposes. Perhaps Taste the Movement, Breath of Fresh Air, government funds, roof-top bar, kind of know what they are doing.

  5. At any rate, always a pleasure “Disingenuous” LV, roof-top-bar, Chic Boutique Hotel, whose demographics are the whites, “non-savors”, with disposable Benjamin’s coming into the Port for a quick stop to catch a show, and a store front sneaker/record store, for the “people” 🤣

    Good luck getting all those government “Benjamin’s to assist in your “committed practitioners of anti-racism in the Port.” 🙂

    Speaking of records, please out Prophet. Good luck Port/People. Look out for those “details.”
