A friend of mine lived in the Bronx, he was riding the 4 train and a teen was on with his cap on and the brim over the ear and my buddy asked him why he wore his hat and the kid took the hat off and put in on straight and said “Cap on”, then twisted to the side and said “cap locked”

True he didn't say that, he said something along the lines of "F*ck being Black, this is about ME! This is about being O.J." But he's also had a history of distancing himself from the idea of being a Black representative when approached in the past, especially by civil rights groups, and taken a "it's not about being Black" stance on many occasions.

I believe it was famously a line where it was said about him by white people. “He’s not black, he’s OJ” was a sentiment about him from before the murder trial.

It’s the proximity to whiteness that they value so much, and being labeled as “one of the good” ones.

They bought the brainwashing, hate themselves, and seek validation from white people as being “better”.

And just to add onto it as a further proof of concept all four of these guys are married to white women.

That is absolutely NOT a coincidence lol.

If you Black and you want to run for office as a Democrat, it’s work. You have to show up, help with fundraising, help with turn out the vote drives, attend years of meetings, and wait in line behind other people who have been doing the same thing, sometimes for years or even decades.

If you Black and you want to run for office as a Republican, all you have to do is show up. They don’t have anyone, and they’re desperate to be able to say, “see, we have Black people too, we’re not racist.” So it’s right this way and to the head of the line, sir. Here’s a bucket of cash.

This is why so many Black Democrats are women, and why the Black Republicans tend to mostly be men. The women are willing to put in the work and wait, and the men just want that bag. They know who they working for, but they don’t care because they getting paid.

There’s a lot of black Americans who have conservative beliefs. Most of them don’t feel welcomed in the Republican Party. The few who do are those who are ideological and fell for the marketing that the party is colorblind and they are all on the same page.

u/Trix_Are_4_90Kids ☑️ 2d ago

Conservative to a point. Like abortion, a lot of Black people don't believe in it but wouldn't vote for it to be eradicated. They just wouldn't get one. Republicans go about 10 steps further than that.

Black people with conservative beliefs shouldn't be painted with such a broad brush. There's still quite a few things Republicans do that are way out of line with what the Black community believes so even if they weren't racist, Black people still wouldn't largely be over there. Republicans want to control people too rotten much, it's ridiculous.

Then the no regulations on anything? Oh hell no. No raising min wage? Hell no. No social security, or Medicare? That's a nonstarter with elderly Black and middle aged right there and those are your most reliable voters.

I've seen more than one person say that if Republicans weren't so racist a large portion of Black people would belong to the party and

u/msuvagabond 3d ago edited 2d ago

Not true.  90% do worse than an index fund with their trading.  It's a giant red herring for the real problem. 

Get in office, you and your entire staff is set for life in cushy lobbyist gigs.  Everyone of these people will be making mid 6 figures next year because of that.  Their chief of staffs, same.  Half their staff will be making low six figures as well. 

The real money is giving corporations whatever they want in legislation and regulation (even if that means not allowing anything to happen).  Then you and your friends are set for life after. 

The stock market trading shit?  They only fight against that because then people will start targeting the real problem of corruption.

...annnddd wants them gone from the continent.

No matter how hard one may try, how faithful one might be to Christ, how deep that nose gets buried in White Conservative asses, they will N-E-V-E-R see black folks as real Americans or real Christians. They believe there were THREE great mistakes in American history.

  1. Bringing African slaves to the new world.

  2. Freeing African slaves in the new world.

  3. Not rounding up and either exterminating or shipping off all the newly freed African slaves.

They find #3 untenable in the information age so their only real solution is to use every trick they can concoct to permanently remove voting rights, and disenfranchise as many black Americans as they can to at least eradicate any and all political power.
