Ofc, but the lie he's repeating is the same one that got Biden elected in the first place. It's specifically pro democratic and anti black, and encapsulates everything wrong with our relationship with the party. As usual, racist dems heard wtf they wanted to hear and repeated it enough that supposed bp are even saying it to each other.
From the same article
There’s no question that by the early 1990s, blacks wanted an immediate response to the crime, violence and drug markets in their communities. But even at the time, many were asking for something different from the crime bill. Calls for tough sentencing and police protection were paired with calls for full employment, quality education and drug treatment, and criticism of police brutality.
It’s not just that those demands were ignored completely. It’s that some elements were elevated and others were diminished — what we call selective hearing. Policy makers pointed to black support for greater punishment and surveillance, without recognizing accompanying demands to redirect power and economic resources to low-income minority communities. When blacks ask for better policing, legislators tend to hear more instead.
