We Should be able to Speak this Freely Again. . .

The Black American communities in past had characteristics of liberalism.

A black conservative is really modern concept.

Lol at this so called black conservatives thinking that black people achieved anything in this country without help and support of other black people. Weirdos.

How much you bet some one your family history was taken in by another black family?

How much you wanna bet black people needed a network of places to eat, stay and party?

How much you wanna bet that you dumb asses wouldnt be here without a network of black people working together?

How much you wanna bet your ancestors shared earnings within the community?

This "I am an individual negro who is fiscally conservative" was never black Americas MO.

This is laughable.

So the default is, if you don't kiss democrat ass, you're a Trump supporter?
.

so it would seem

Malcom X is a conservative now?

You say groupthink I say it's a show of solidarity. Support for current form conservatism from the right and the Republican Party is counterintuitive for black interests.

Rejection of the DNC =/= support for the GoP... and the black community as a whole seems to be unsure what "black interest" are and how to go about obtaining our just dues.



I think rejecting any idea/position based on partisanship and not its merit is a mistake that does more harm than good.

So sit on the sidelines completely while public policy is being shaped by the two parties. Im sure both parties will shape policy in our favor due to the lack of support

It's really not that hard to disconnect yourself from the liberal establishment mentality, fellas.

All it takes is a detox from their propaganda, and an honest look at the historical conditions for black folks in this country.

An excellent test to see if you're brainwashed by liberal propaganda is if your cognitive dissonance kicks in when someone brings you up Libya currently selling black men as slaves. If you feel the need to defend the Obama admin if they're criticized for this happening, then you might be brain washed. That's just one example.

Malcom X is a conservative now?

Who said that?

Yo really what is wrong with you people? T

 

[Phoenix Rising]

The groupthink is strong in the black community and if you're not with the left, spreading the DNC message they don't want to hear it...

It's weird and sad

What damage has liberal thinking done to the black community? Liberal thinking ended slavery and Jim Crow. What has conservatism done for black folks other then torment them? Tired of right wing c00ns being obtuse on history

Waiting for the "define damage" reply

What damage has liberal thinking done to the black community?

Progressive policies have destroyed the black family(which was intact throughout the Slavery and the Jim crow era) with the introduction of an ever expanding welfare state as well as mandatory sentencing.
Other policies such as min wage hikes, a lax view on immigration and a fear of education reform have steepened the hill blacks have to climb in my opinion.

What has conservatism done for black folks other then torment them?

Generate a black middle class independent of whites before their cism flared up and they burned it down.

Nowadays it just keeps the door open for blacks to arm themselves, and attempts to lower and/or remove regulatory barriers into the market.

So sit on the sidelines completely while public policy is being shaped by the two parties. Im sure both parties will shape policy in our favor due to the lack of support

Neither side is shaping policy in our favor with or without our support...

Y'all folks have the same discussions here with the same solutions but no action. I ain't seen a Coli sponsored march yet.

Are you really trying to make this argument? That black families were better off under slavery and the Jim crow south?

The repeal of bussing, the readmission of schools choice and neighborhood schools (segregation) has see Charlotte plummet on both black education and black advancement metrics in this country.

The return to conservatism almost always leads to negative returns for blacks.

Further the notion that the black family or a black nucleus is good Prima facie is flawed on so many levels.

Blacks were closer when they were more oppressed because they had nowhere else to be.

Who said that?

Based on your rhetoric and referring to a post talking about white liberals it's a simple deduction.

No im making the argument that progressive policies have harmed the black community.

No it's not. I used only the same terminology X did in the video.

At some point the black community, if we're going to stay in America has to carve relationship model that's not built entirely around struggle or you never break the cycle.

As it stands, being black is very much described as not being white and being oppressed.

People crave the civil rights area black culture because there was a common enemy a common voice.

But none of those types seem ready to accept what comes next. A competition for resources and capital.

This could be a good thread. The topic is very HL worthy. . . But you dudes rather discuss people (me) than ideas. That's a sign of small-mindedness.
