Context is that Amy Schumer is claiming that MLK was a zionist.
I think its interesting that people are so enamored with certain historical figures that their words are treated as gospel, and like the Bible, they alter and morph words to new meanings. Context evolves over time, you don't need to worship anyone.
MLK is just a blank slate for liberals to launder feelings of righteousness towards whatever contemporary position they need to support. Which conveniently never includes liberation movements, poverty alleviation, or civil rights.
The white moderate is puppeteering the foggy memory of MLK into serving oppression. Any figure they can't do that with will get the Stalin treatment.

It is unbelievable how nothing has changed, all of his criticisms and rage are still completely valid. The absolute inane myth of " the so-called progressive party "
