This Biden Breakfast Club Interview :mjlol:

[Copy Ninja]

The ending is getting a lot of traction.

It sounds worse when you read the transcript, but when you watch the video, you get the context that he said it tongue in cheek.

When these two dudes go at it on the debate stage it's gonna be a lot of fukkery if Biden lets it all hang out

 

[re'up]

It's a misstep, and overly coarse way to phrase things, but I don't think it's actually offensive, but it is on some level.

 

[John Mexico]

Those are russian bot on twitter and fake militants/c00ns in tlr

I'm not a black poster, but I saw that thread before this one and I gotta ask, whats with the disparity of thought? I understand it has more activity and has the convo flow of a reddit, but why aren't they hear as well since its just a click away? It is moderated differently over here? Are there hundreds of people banned from this subforum or what?

 

[Julius Leisure]

This was a dumbass thing to say (add it to the list), but I also think some of its danger lies in the potential for bad actors to AstroTurf some leftist groups and try to drum up some voter apathy (which only helps the incumbent), a la “same old democrats etc.”

 

[mc_brew]

i'm going to keep it short and not-so-sweet, trump is doing a better job of convincing me to vote for biden than biden is....

 

[Althalucian]

I don't like Biden at all but he's right.

Voting for Trump is like trying to bleach your skin to become whiter. fukk all that.

However, Biden saying that makes me think he's about to gaffe it up his whole presidency. Republicans will be eating the next 4 years if he wins. Democrats really know how to pick them.

 

[No1]

It is, what it is. No one cares anymore - nothing matters at all.

If Biden comes out this energetic and sharp, it’s going to be epic.

Reckless hot takes are rewarded in the other forum.

Explain the disrespect? Keep in mind Trump is an overt white supremacist and racist

Joe Biden as a white person should not be making statements that describe a superficial measure of blackness on any standard. Its backward disrespectful shyt even when done amongst our own people.

Keep in mind this has nothing to do with Trump and his own misconduct

it has everything to do with Trump because that is the context of the statement

 

[intra vires]

He isn’t wrong though. Why should a black person even CONSIDER voting for a white supremacist over the first black president VP?

It's not about considering voting for a white supremacist. It's about non-black people like Biden thinking they can define blackness even in "jest." That's not his place period.

A non-black person is not of the community, they don't need to be trying to define blackness or using derogatory slang to call someone out for their betrayal of the community (eg. c00n, uncle tom, uncle ruckus, etc). You can call them stupid, ignorant, talk about how those actions are specifically detrimental to the black community, or whatever but taking it to "they're not black" is gross. I'll call vile beings David Clarke and Candace Owens c00ns and much worse. I'm black though, me going at them in that manner is... community policing. You can't police the community if you aren't from it. No matter how "down" you are that isn't your place.

I mean the general you not you, Outlaw, the poster.

No. The statement is straight up ignorant.

You talk as if it would be impossible for Biden to have reaffirmed his black voters without saying something stupid and condescending. But I guess HL is just that much of a fan of "if you dont support x you're y" politics he invoked here.

 

[NZA]

Does that article state most black people voted for Biden because of their fear of survival which was your point?

The border electorate like Biden more than the other candidates that ran this primary season period. Actions speak louder than words.

not that one specifically, but these

Why Black voters support Joe Biden - The Boston Globe
"For many Black voters, there is no more important issue than defeating President Trump. As Jimmy, who drove me to the airport, succinctly put it: “If white people catch a cold, Black people catch pneumonia.” A Trump presidency that’s been disastrous for America has been catastrophic for Black people."

Poll: Black Americans' opposition to Trump is pushing them to vote in 2020


"Why it matters: Black voter turnout declined significantly in 2016 nationally and in key swing states, ultimately contributing to Hillary Clinton's loss to Donald Trump. New details from focus groups and polling suggests that the motivation to remove Trump from office is firing up black Americans to head to the polls next November."
"
Black Americans' increased motivation to vote next year stems from an intense opposition to President Trump and a belief that he "has been a disaster for our country, and we need to do everything we can to vote him out," according to the survey.

• Most respondents said they believe Trump's election has emboldened people with racist views to express them publicly."
