The shills aren’t going to like this thread
They don’t won’t you to bring up any of this. Without those who have brought this shyt up, we don’t get any of these politicians even talking about a black agenda or reparations. They don’t get that.

Folks just need to keep pushing and demanding. At some point, though, it will require threatening these politicians with our vote

I rather have that than planned parenthood (killing our babies) child support 73% of black families are out of wedlock.. Welfare.. Just sit at home and be unproductive.. We'll pay you to fail..

Democrats hurt black people so much.. We will never have shyt because they know they have our vote for free. They asked Kamala Harris what will she do when she gets in office.. This bytch actually said "our main goal is just to get Donald Trump out" :gucci:... That's it? We had it rough during the Obama years.. Most of the black kids that murdered by cops were on Obama watch. Now we got a couple this year and they're using it for the election? nikkaz gonna get murdered by cops regardless.. It don't matter who in office.. Racist will still be racist..

I feel disrespected by how dumb black people are. Malcom said it in the 60s.. You are a chump if vote without getting anything in return.

What do you want in return?

I never said anything about money payments, and neither did cube. He's simply saying we need something **EXCLUSIVE** to us, meaning nobody else benefits off it but. us.

Do you think we're being uppity by asking for that? are we out of line? i'm asking seriously. :jbhmm:
It's not uppity and I can see why some people would want that, its just not realistic in a big tent party IMO. Plans that benefit black people need to have some type of broader benefit to many citizens to gain support from different constituent groups.

In any case, there is absolutely no benefit from not pushing for Democrats to win if you are looking for something like that because any type of benefits that minorities have gained and fought for have come through whatever liberal party was in power. If he thinks otherwise, he's simply ignorant.

A lot of the shyt he is complaining bout is from Republicans. Dems fought hard to not give corporate bailouts, and Dems have a bill on reparations in the house as we speak as well.

As far as the corporate bailouts, I can't speak on. Regarding reparations, they may have a bill, but Kamala and Biden have said countless times they're anti-reparations. They may say they "support" reparations, but there's not enough action on their account.

The Dems are basically the dude selling a chick a dream, they talk all that good shyt, but at the end of the day they're treating her like the side piece/wifing her up.

I don't think it's unrealistic...pass a "MLK Avenue law" that gives people living within a 500 yard radius of an MLK avenue 2 years free college tuition to whatever university they see fit <<<< this is just an example.

we all know that 99% of people living within those radius's are black, so it would be a "black law" without it specifically being that. This is exactly what they did with DACA to benefit illegal mexicans coming over here.

85% of DACA recipients are latino but I get your point :hubie:

So I'll ask you too - are black people being uppity and getting out of line for asking for exclusive bills/legislations that benefit our communities only?
People are always saying other groups get things but those groups include blacks. So that argument is disingenuous

I think that's very unrealistic. What about the black people that don't live within that radius?

I didn't live in the city growing up so are you just not going to include me based on the location of a street?
