Yea... pretty much. I understand not wanting to eat a shyt sandwich, the difference between me and you is I’m not willing to eat shyt soup as an alternative. I’ll just fast until something palatable is on the table.

You basically want to trade an AMC Gremlin in for a Ford Pinto like both arent POS whips

Or sit on the sidelines and do nothing while Orangeman gets another term.

Did Malcolm X leave it at voting? You in the bay, did the black panther party leave it at voting? Or did they actually go out into their community to enact the changes they wanted to see?

The difference between me and you is I’m not afraid of Trump. My people been thru way too much got all that.

All that sounds good but the Orangeman gotta go. I know black history very well. Every black person that's ever voted for any president besides Obama probably voted for a racist....so we gon pick now with the worst president in modern history and arguably of all-time to stand on the sidelines and let him get another term?

fukk that. Pick another time to stand on that high horse named apathy.

19 pages in and you still haven't said anything, just fear based garbage.

I can go to church to get the same effect as talking to you democrats on the coli. Pure fear based nonsense. I know Trump is a idiot but no one has explained what Biden is gonna do for black folks...

almost 20 pages in, nothing.

Republican Senate blocked his pick. They wouldn't even allow a vote. Mitch McConnel is the one who said they would only vote on it if Hillary won.

Did Obama fight for the seat?

Who was running the country, McConnell or Obama?

Caymans, bytch!

The Dems gotta nominate somebody who can beat him. Biden is going senile, has a bad record, lied about marching for Civil Rights, lied about getting arrested in apartheid South Africa, dropped out of his first presidential campaign because he got caught plagiarizing speeches, the list goes on.

Biden won't win. The Dem establishment needs to realize this.

Affordable Care Act covers pre-existing conditions which allowed millions of people to have health insurance where they would previously have been turned away.


Source: Pre-existing condition - Wikipedia

Black people were disproportionately more likely to not be eligible for health insurance and so there are literally millions of lives that have been saved. Republicans want to repeal Affordable Care Act and take things back to how they were. That is meaningful change that will be undone if Republicans take back the House

And there are still a TON of low income black people that dont qualify for healthcare

And that act wasnt specifically created for black people

And that act did/does nothing to address the rampant misdiagnoses/undertreatment/overtreatment of black people IN GENERAL, with respect to the medical field

And I have my own personal issue with the ACA. It allowed me to stay on parents insurance for a few more years (that actually paid for a bunch of things)

Once I got it through a workplace? I'm paying $500 for allergy tests, $580 for xrays (IN A HOSPITAL THAT I WORK FOR) etc etc.

So no, didn't help me much.

Not to mention doctors treating us like shyt.

breh the cacs that you vote for give you nothing. When someone goes to work and takes orders from their boss what they receive is money in regards to that. One isn’t giving you anything in regards to what you give them (a vote) while the other gives you money for your labor.

they aren’t the same but you knew that already :coffee:

I don't go back and forth with arguments in bad faith :yeshrug:

It is subsidized so that people 400% or lower of the poverty line can afford it which refutes your point.

Even racist policies (stop and frisk/Trump's Country Ban/etc) aren't created specifically against black people. The question is who does it disproportionately affect positively/negatively. If you are honest with yourself, you'll see that a larger percentage basis of African Americans are uninsured than white people and so we benefited more from ACA.

And that act did/does nothing to address the rampant misdiagnoses/undertreatment/overtreatment of black people IN GENERAL, with respect to the medical field
The idea has only started to get traction in the last few years. I am down to make the current process more accountable though. We need to hold people accountable when they get in office after procuring our votes

Kudos for being able to stay on your parent's insurance longer. Copays/deductibles are based on the type of coverage you get through your medical insurance. More expensive premiums = better coverage and a lower copay/deductible. Recently Trump has chopped away at the ACA so that you can get a really really cheap premium but almost nothing is covered if things go left in a major way.

So the trade off is really be covered for EVERYTHING and have to pay more upfront and more things that the insurer deems unnecessary or pay very little up front and then the insurer can turn you away if you get cancer or refuse to serve you if you have a history of high blood pressure (which is common among African Americans)

So no, didn't help me much.

Not to mention doctors treating us like shyt.
I'm down to hold doctors accountable. I personally try to visit people of color solely for my doctors to minimize them not viewing my complaints/pain as equal. If someone of color treats me like shyt, fukk them and I'll get a new doctor.

All I can do is my part. I voted for Bernie Sanders but I'd vote for Biden if it comes down to him and Trump.
