“Majority of black Americans are conservative.” - @amerikan melanin

[SupaDupaCool]

Black ppl are culturally conservative, but not in that way politically.

For example, black ppl aren't as accepting of the things most liberal ppl are....but we vote for that party bc the past decades that party has shown at least some type diversity and inclusion.

But I don't think most Christian black ppl are in favor of trans stuff, gay stuff, etc.

Just have no option to vote anywhere else


Given all that, repubs are actually pretty stupid. They could win every time, but they let their racism drag them down

Jesus Christ with this shyt....

Can y'all please tell me who are these races and ethnic groups that collectively endorse "trans stuff," "gay stuff," and are not largely religious?

Who are these mythical and hypothetical race of "people" who are definitely liberal?

The way y'all talk you'd think liberals don't even exist.
Which fukking GOP PAC backed black Youtuber or Dailywire show do you guys get these ridiculous takes about political ideology and voting from? Some of yall really can't think for yourselves and yoiu DO believe in the propagandized white supremacist views of "conservatives" and "liberals." All conservatives are tough hetero sexual working class men who love Jesus,their traditional family, and beef jerky, all liberals are blue haired, septum ring wear gay activists. Y'all actually break down politics to this level of juvenile buffoonery and think you're talking like political scientists.

Anti-black racism isn’t strictly “political”, so how do we align with that?

I need to know who raised all these black men who so badly want to find every excuse in the book to be "culturally" aligned with people that want us subjugated, demonized, and silenced. There's got a be a case study for this type of foot shuffling foolishness.

which neither are true

Well nobody wants a bunch of fakkits running around in the family

Lol

@Amerikan Melanin is talking about Black Americans are culturally conservative, not politically conservative, meaning traditional values. For example, Marriage, Family get togethers ie Family Reunions, Educational, Religious and etc.

Black Americans started family reunions, after slavery ended, we would search for our family members sold off and would have get annual get togethers:

The Historical Legacy of Black Family Reunions

As waves of emancipation swept through the country, many African Americans sought to reunite with lost family members and to define family roles and responsibilities in ways they believed best suited their new circumstances. Their efforts highlighted the importance of family as foundational to...

nmaahc.si.edu

So now family gatherings are "conservative" too? Jesus Christ man....



Yall have been so thoroughly brainwashed by cacs with this demonized view of "liberals" and this brainwashed glorified view of conservatives you believe even a fukking family reunion is a conservative function.

Do yall see this nikka actually taking a beautiful ritual that rose out of slavery and attributing it culturally to people that don't even want to acknowledge slavery existed?

And this obvious Trump supporting right wing c00n will do the most to call other people's shills and suck ups to cac politics.

 

[SupaDupaCool]

Real talk I cant wait for the next "black people are conservative thread" just to see what dumb shyt you bootlicking nikkas come up wit next. You know there will be one every week leading to 2024.

"Black people love birthday parties. We've always loved birthday parties! We are very socially conservative."

yall nikkas don't understand jack shyt about politics or sociology.

 

[SupaDupaCool]

Even the “church” point is dated …. a lot of these black churches aren’t even “conservative” in any way unless we’re defining believing in a god as inherently conservative in itself.

These weirdo nikkas watch too much Dailywire videos and believes everything other than gay sex is "socially conservative." They are actually this dumb, shallow, and easy to manipulate.

 

[SupaDupaCool]

We are conservative the talking points to get us to vote are based on republican being racist not policies that are liberal.

In all yalls attempt to back up your bootlicking pro-Republican viewpoints you c00ns can't help but to attack black people like massa expects yall to.

Black people don't vote Democrat because we are being tricked into defending our own rights with fearmongering about "racism." We do it because we DO understand policy. We are not a dumb, brainwashed people too stupid to consider the party of choice for white supremacists and corporate billionaires to help us. We dont need the white man to teach us how to vote.

You have the nerve to say this dumb shyt about black voters just as the Trump Supreme Court just abolished affirmative action? Only a racist cac that can't help but see black people as only props and not actual people would see that shyt and still wonder "why won't black people vote Republican. They're brainwashed by the Democrats." The disrespect...

We know government and policy. We are easily the most visible non-whie ethnic group in Congress. On every policy point, including taxes, social programs, government spending, foreign policies, Healthcare, law enforcement, we are ALWAYS to the left. Advocating for change, responsibility, accountability and improvement. At no point in American history have black people politically or socially left their faith, beliefs, and identity in an existing standard of society, certainly one created by white people. Ever.

Please tell me your a cac...

This article states one third of black people identify as conservative (with 90% of them still supporting the democratic party). One third clearly is not the majority of black people.

The article says more than one third........also aren't you carribean.....The topic Black Americans, man Black America's can't do anything without Non-FBA all in the mix lol

I knew what you ment and other FBA's knew what you ment, the other nikkas in here see the word conservative and their vaginas start to bleed.

Angela Lewis, Ph.D., who is an associate professor University of Alabama at Birmingham did a study on Black Americans being conservative and on how Black Americans being conservative is based on lifestyles, not political.

Many black people are conservative, but not the way most think by Jim Bakken

April 05, 2013 Print Email

When it comes to being conservative, black people have been mislabeled, according to a new book by a University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) professor.

There is this overarching belief that African Americans are extremely liberal and support liberal ideas like unlimited welfare assistance and an open lifestyle,” said Angela Lewis, Ph.D., associate professor of government. “This characterization of black people is incorrect.” Lewis recently penned “Conservatism in the Black Community” as part of the Routledge Series on Identity Politics.

The book looks at how conservatism among black people — from slavery up to today — is different from that of whites. In the book, Lewis categorizes conservatism in the black community into four groups, and supports each with longitudinal data. “When you think of black conservative pundits who are always on TV and conservative everyday black people, they are not the same,” Lewis said. More than one-third of the black population identifies themselves as conservative, she said. Of that group, however, more than 90 percent support the Democratic Party, considered a more liberal political group.

Lewis found this interesting and set out to find out why. She conducted focus groups in Birmingham, Chicago and Atlanta. She found that when African Americans talked about conservatism, they rarely mentioned politics. Instead, they talked about their lifestyle, morals and values. And, they were able to compartmentalize their views on lifestyle in order to support a political party they feel is more compassionate toward marginalized groups and the poor.

Often, the pundits speaking for black conservatism are aligned with the Republican Party and do not support issues like affirmative action, a policy that the typical black conservative does, according to Lewis. “The media needs to have more than these pundits representing conservatism because they are not representative of black conservative thought,” she said. Lewis’ hardback book is available for $125 here and the e-book can be purchased at amazon.com.

Black conservatism and White conservatism are two totally different things in the American context.

 

[Double Burger With Cheese]

Y’all nikkas analyze black people more than white people do

 

[Luke Cage]

Black conservatism and White conservatism are two totally different things in the American context.

This,

White Conseravatism = White Supremacy essentially. Aint many black folks who are pro the following;
Erasing Black History from School, Claiming Slavery was the fault of africans, and that black folks liked being slaves anyway. Anti natural black hairstyles in schools and the workplace. anti reparations, anti police accountability for disparate treatment of black people. anti black voting, etc etc
they are literally against every single pro black issue there is. black people who support that idea of conservatism do not make up a majority

 

[UpNext]

Man the majority of Americans are conservative. Probably the only liberal push we've seen in the last 20 or so years we've seen any progress in has been with regards to some gay shyt. There is no other liberal issue that has advanced past where it was in the year 2000 due to the fact that most Americans regardless of political party affiliation are conservative.

Spoiler

If you voted Joe Biden, you're a conservative.

I am not carribbean. And "more than one third" is still not the majority. So the majority of african americans does not identify as conservative. The article also states that african americans who identify as conservative still support the democratic party, because it is more compassionate towards marginalized groups. So even those african americans who identify as conservative do not fit what both-siding milic00ns mean, when they claim that the majority of african americans are conservative and dislike gays, womans rights and immigrants.

 

[Fillerguy]

How do you define cultural conservativism?

I'm asking because Black Americans have either been the leaders or at the forefront of every culturally progressive movement in America since America became a nation. And we continue to be.

Word. These days I try to use the word progressive instead of liberal because the right wing media has successfully redefined the word liberal to represent a bunch of cultural things white conservatives don't like. It's even seeped into black spaces like TLR
