I don't know who is teaching the black kids the wrong things and wrong way of doing things and instilling no values these days. I have a pretty strong hunch who the guilty party is these days and the primary motive as well. So, why do you and others on the Democratic side continue doing it on a regular basis on behalf of those mainly associated with the black race these days?(08-25-2020, 03:47 PM)Classic-Xer Wrote:(08-24-2020, 10:50 PM)Eric the Green Wrote:I doubt Congress pays enough to get rich either but some how or another Joe Biden, the Clinton's and the Obama's all managed to get rich and richer while in politics.

Don't you know that? If Democrats want to win, they must serve their core supporters. Blacks for example vote Democratic in the 90% range. You expect Democrats to abandon them? You don't understand politics at all, then.I don't expect the Democrats to let go of racism or racial bias because as I've said, they're still to valuable to them politically these days. We have to many Democrats sitting in Congress making a very good living (getting wealthier) off being black or a minority woman or whatever else these days.
If you resent and oppose that, and therefore vote white identity politics e.g. Donald Trump, then who is using race and racism?
"all kinds of shit for years" Reminds me of what Obama said that the Republicans have been giving us all kinds of crazy for years.
That's only a few people; hardly a trend of black and people of color getting rich off being black. And I doubt congress pays enough to make one rich.
No, Democrats won't ignore or betray their black and hispanic supporters. You call that "not letting go of racism or racial bias" because it's "valuable to them politically these days"
A rare sensible statement from you. No, racism should not be automatically assumed. There are grounds for asserting racism still exists today, based on such phenomena as the prevalence of racial profiling and racial brutality by police, and the wealth and criminal justice gaps that exist. But that is not the same of assuming racism on the part of a particular person or set of persons.
