I agree with this assessment for most white people. They want to go back to a time when race and gender shit wasn’t thrown in their faces all the time. And they want to keep the bad brown people out of the country. Illegal immigration was and is a problem, but their solution is not predicated on solving the problem, it’s about getting them out.

The Latinos, I guess it was mainly keeping worse brown people out and not having LGBTQ shit thrown in their face all the time. TYT made a good point, it’s probably not sexism because México has a Jewish female president now. Race could definitely play a factor though because they had no issues voting for Hillary back in 2016.

Elections are not about policies anymore, it’s about emotions and feelings and sensationalism.

Elections were never about policies.

We have to think what is the driving force this country has and defined itself by.

It's all about empire.

We don't measure ourselves against existing country. We measure ourselves against the Roman Empire. We measure ourselves against Alexander the Great. We measure ourselves against the British Empire.

What tricked y'all is that y'all confuse the Black American ideal of the country, that was espoused by MLK and Frederick Douglass m and Ella Baker and others, the plea of a just and equal society with how everyone else actually wants.

Even the Democrats don't want that shit. That's why they court White Republicans. Even the White leftists don't want that shit because they don't wanna talk about slavery and reparations because they want White solidarity across class lines. The immigrants came here to make money, not engage in political struggle to make America be what it is not.

Everyone is jocking for position in the empire. Everyone is figuring out how to continue the empire but we talking about justice and equality and how to make an empire founded on conquest and contradiction humane.

Native born Black Americans are the moral conscience of the country. Every other group has compromised itself for a piece of the American Dream.

Y'all gotta understand where y'all live and stop believing policies and reasonable arguments can compete with the forces of history that make this place what it is.

Policies and arguments never moved this country. It always been blood.

Eh, I agree somewhat, but if it was just what you say then there wouldn’t have been an end to slavery, no civil rights movement, no LGBTQ rights movement, no women’s suffrage movement, etc.

As far as foreign pursuits, I’d agree more.

But I will say we shouldn’t EXPECT anything. Any progress is going to be incremental at best. Black people may have gotten the most we’re going to get out of this system so now it’s about taking care of ourselves and trying to prevent as much harm as possible politically.
 
Is there a way to check that your vote was recorded accurately?

I’m not claiming voter fraud, but damn if those numbers just don’t add up.

And it might be that 2020 was the anomaly.

I don’t know, the numbers just ain’t adding up is all I’m saying. I could be completely wrong and I’m willing to accept that.

If not, isn’t it weird there’s no way to check this?

White people keep on saying that the economy is the reason that they voted for Trump, but they can't name one thing Trump is planning to do to help the economy. Kamala said she was going to go after price gougers in an effort to lower inflation. Even if you don't agree with that policy, at least she addressed the issue. Trump keeps talking about inflation but from an economic policy standpoint, all we know so far is that he's going to cut taxes for rich people. How is that going to help the struggling population.

The MLKs of the world had to fight to be heard. They were not meant to have the voices they had, true... but we don't have to and shouldn't allow that to be the status quo if we have demands or issues to address.

As far as the Black community is concerned, a war crime was committed on our homeland without even much as an apology given to us. In fact, this entire country was built off that war crime. Every 4 years, we tuck our tail between our legs and pray things get better while that crime goes unpunished. You ask someone nowadays, they'll say racism is over and things are better than 400 years ago. That's the mindset created by "policies" we're told to support.

We collectively got comfortable with being "treated nicely", forgetting we still need our justice. It's not about a check, it's about correcting a 400 year mistake. If they don't wanna do that, they will fall without us. And they will. You compared us to the Roman Empire... they fell by the same problems we're dealing with today: government corruption, moral decline and allowing weak men to rule them.

I heard about this 4B movement. I'm not mad at it. We have a legit rapist running our country... I can't imagine that being easy for women who been abused to stomach. It's the best they can do at this point. Go ladies... I didn't vote for that nigga anyway.

Anybody thinking the US is going to make amends for slavery is deluding themselves.

Why anyone has that kind of faith in either party is wild to me. Which is why holding out for the shit is crazy to me.

But as long as you live in this country what these politicians do will impact you, your loved ones, and the black community so why would you just sit back and leave it to whites and Latinos to decide?

I could at least respect someone that says fuck it all with no conditions because at least they not holding onto some unfounded faith in US mortality.

That doesn’t make sense though. Punishing a whole gender because people are ok with Trump in the White House?

Now if they said they weren’t giving it up to non-voters and Trump voters then ok.

Well, the country burns. And it's been burning for decades. My family been eating since we got here without the government's help. We got land in our name after our ancestors bought it off their slave owners. Even if we're all not well off, we moved around without sticking our hand out. Giuliani out here begging for food while the man he went to jail for is trolling the Dems and opening a budget for kid cages. We're done talking, we just wanna prepare for the conversation they wanna have after this shit burns down without us.

Even in your backup plan you’re still in the US. And though government may not help you it can hurt you. It can definitely hurt blank people outside of your circle.

And when it burns it won’t be black people they ask to put them back in power, it will be Latinos where the consensus here is they don’t fuck with black people.

I respect your point of view, I just don’t see it working out the way you think.

When will the call and demand for reparations will be happening?


It's going on a week since the election and I've yet to see any posts or comments about it

Odd🤔

Only Off Brands co-signed this, so it must be a disingenuous, intellectually dishonest comment

A.mann Now you made this cowardly troll comment but if I went back in your posting history would find you lashing out at the Democrats for pump faking on reparations in California? Would I find one post about it at all??

How about you tethers? @Inori @Infamous114 @TheNightKing

You clowns who don't have four black American grandparents are going to have to realize that your views and opinions are IRRELEVANT. It hasn't been a week yet but after a while y'all are going to have to realize that your cowardly positions are not backed by the government anymore

You niggas don't stand for shit, trolling the people who do

Notice how these niggas who stand with the Democratic party and not black people are crashing out now

Notice how Amann made that bad faith comment as if he's not eligible for reparations

Notice how the only people who co-signed it also not eligible for reparations 🤨

These Niggas ain't our brothers, stay woke
