What happened to the 'Vote or you ain't s***' crowd? Seriously, where ya'll at?

Um I always wondered why when these anti vote nikkas elaborate on why politics don’t matter or being politically active doesn’t matter for black people I should say ...they deflect to how other “minority groups” get so much and blacks so little but can anyone of you guys break down just exactly what the gays and the illegal immigrants have been granted by the government as of late that black folks don’t already have access to i mean i just saying it seems to be rather strange to me to talk about how the political system is carrying out the agenda of gays for example by giving them the right to marrying when blacks have been able to do that for decades now... I could see if these other groups were been granted some new progressive shyt that excluded black people but it just seem a rather shallow to use that dynamic as the fundamental basis for your position but I’m sleep

The fundamental basis is reality.
Those other groups are ONLY brought up because Dem party black slaves say things like "well Dems need to rep all and CANT do anything for any specific group".... Then year after year after year for decades ..... They push and advocate for Specific policy for other groups.

People haven’t even been sworn in yet and you do nothing nikkas are already complaining

Oh so this wave of black politicians is the first wave of black politicians to hold office huh

 

[Easy-E]

Don't forget about these programs as well. Treaty of 1866 which is supposed to be for black folks. Haven't heard not one black politician since I've been born speak on this treaty.

I gotta do my research on this

Absolutely no one is saying that. You do need NUMBERS and a majority in the congress and senate to make change though. This is why voting is important.



Again this is a statement made by people who know fukk all about how government works. There are democratic controlled areas that lie squarely in a country controlled by conservativism on the state, federal, and judicial level. You are the same kind of person that blames Obama for the lack of progress but ignores the fact that he had a congress who’s stated job was to obstruct everything he wanted to do for his entire presidency outside of 4 months where he had the majority to do what he wanted.

there are "urban" areas with dem mayors , dem city council, and dem governors that Still fukk up in the same ways and Still dont address black issues appropriately.
The problem is you Are In Denial about the FACT that the black vote is the only vote the Democratic party takes for granted.
Many places where black people are doing better economically are Red states.
Im not saying gop or dem is better or worse...
Im saying.... we'd have to be passive slave minded fools to pretend the dem party isn't taking the black vote for granted.

 

[Ya' Cousin Cleon]

run for office yourself if you can tbh

it ain’t easy

but it’s better than simply chastising folks nonstop for the one time they do engage in a perceived civics duty

[MR. SNIFLES]

And people looked at me crazy for saying we need our own party. And the dems won't do for us...

COULD WORK ON A LOCAL LEVEL. WE WOULD HAVE TO PLAY AROUND WITH CONSOLIDATING SOME OF THE POPULATION AND DISPERSING OTHER PARTS.

IT WOULD BE WASH ON STATE/NATIONAL LEVEL THOUGH.

You're rambling and not answering a single question posed ..this is the problem with a lot of you nikkas ... the constant need to deflect and run off non-sequitur over and over and over again ...

I know WHY you nikkas deflect I don’t need that information what I’m articulating is that your deflection is POOR because even if you wanted to argue that “wellllllll government officials do target specific demos for legislation” the actual fact of that statement is that those legislative measures are in large part things that Blacks already have access to... so what your argument reduces to is that when these groups of people recieve this attention it’s only via hand me down proposals that black people have had for decades which undercuts this talking point that you are trying to use obviously ....you nikkas need to go back really think a little more in depth about what your trying to get across here becuase tbh a lot of this shyt just sounds like lazy ass contrarianism just for the sake of being heard

 

[dj-method-x]

What solutions do you suggest that we utilize in order to deal with the fact that the black community has been voting for decades and has nothing to show for all that voting?

The solution definitely isn’t to stop voting. Voting is not the cause of our problems. You would have to be a simpleton to think so. Even though we vote in strong numbers, conservatives vote in greater numbers and thus have held more power in goverment, hence the backwards ass polices we have to fight against.

For some reason you dudes see this and blame Dems, refuse to vote, and give even more power to the conservatives that are blatantly against you. It’s a completely dumb strategy. But since you have loud politically ignorant people like Tariq screaming this nonsense all over the place without showing you the whole picture or putting things in context, fools easily buy into this “don’t vote” strategy.

It’s sad to watch.

Proof of the bolded claim?

Study finds those with graduate education are far more liberal than peers

Damn you didn’t answer his question at all and completely missed the point.

Breh... They actually had a hearing on gender bathrooms.. How the fck who goes to what bathroom gets a fcking political platform..

Then you got mayors in major cities across the country talking that sanctuary shyt..

In the face of the president threatening to pull federal funding..

Come on man.

 

[Wildhundreds]

Then you got mther fckers comparing the black struggle in this country, with these CACs, to mexicans trying to flee violence in their country..

Shyt has nothing in common..

White america owe black people.. Everyone else needs to take a number and get in line..

Again, what solutions do you think the Dems should be imploring that are specific to black people? You are screaming at them to just “DO SOMETHING” without even having an agenda or plan for what to do. You can’t get mad at Dems for focusing on practical solutions to common problems that affect us like healthcare, education, justice, etc instead of appeasing to your imaginary agenda and plan of action.

Black people desegregated bathrooms and water fountains etc etc for ourselves decades ago ... again you are making my point


What do you think a “sanctuary city” means btw?
