So you think we can get reparations, if we don’t have the right to vote? :mjtf:
So you’re saying the white supremacists who have taken our right to vote will now give us reparations when they totally control the government. Do y’all cac devils really think the non-retards of our race will allow y’all’s tricks to work?
This is what bothers me about alot of these obvious shills on the internet, it's like y'all play obtuse on purpose rather than even attempt good faith discussions.

What percentage of black folks in this country do you think have their voting rights taken for this to be a more pressing issue than reparations?


And miss me with any bad faith speech, I just want a percentage of black folks who's voting rights are in trouble and "have been taken by white supremacists". Don't even bother responding to this post if you aren't coming with some numbers either. That's how we'll know your bytch ass is just another bad faith actor.:camby:

Boy your ass should call yourself TK dumb, if you were really black, but we know what’s up cac.

If you were black and this was a legit question, I would tell you they don’t have to take all of our right to vote, at least initially. The goal is to disenfranchise enough of us to ensure victories at every level of government. Of course even the most racist of you devils know most of my people will never vote for conservatives, but what y’all can do, is what you’re attempting to do here, sow voter apathy and spread disinformation.

Dearly departed Congressman John Conners was kicking ass for many and paved the way yet for new these new jackasses to have an attitude. Folk asking what have they done lately ain't got the pedigree to shine his shoes. I'm glad I was able to say Thanks while he was here.

I know relatives who have done a lot for me. On a national level just Google what has been done.

Bashing the CBC is the popular thing to do these days. It's what happens when people listen to cult leaders and other social media fools.

Or when people don't know what they do and they don't tell you what they do. It's their job to make sure their constituents know they are working for them.

It would also help if there were Black media that could inform their viewers on what the CBC, NAACP, and other organizations do as well.

But the question, no matter where it comes from, is a valid question. And should be easily answered.

Y’all have no idea how politics work. You expect them to give you $2K every month & the new Jordans when they drop?

Y’all are delusional if you think white folks will ever agree to give out reparations.

America is a democracy. The government doesn’t infringe upon your rights to make yourself better.
Why are you insulting me and not just answering the question

Please don't answer a question with more questions. What percentage of the black population do you actually think this is an issue for?
I have to be honest: Your question sounds like satire in light of all that is going down. :francis: I will just sample Georgia since it is the most visible:

"Georgia, a state where 31 percent of the population is African American and 9 percent is Latino, has 214 fewer polling places. Georgia stands out because its counties have closed higher percentages of voting locations than any other state in our study. The top five closers of polling places by percentage were Georgia counties: The top three counties in the state were Lumpkin (89 percent closed); Stephens (88 percent closed); and Warren, which is 61 percent African American (83 percent closed). Bacon County, which is 15 percent African American, and Butts County, which is 28 percent African American, tied with 80 percent closed. Seven counties with major polling place reductions now have only one polling site to serve hundreds of square miles. In a February 2015 memo, the office of Brian Kemp, who was then serving as Georgia’s secretary of state, encouraged counties to consolidate voting locations. He specifically spelled out twice — in bold font — that “as a result of the Shelby vs. Holder [sic] Supreme Court decision, [counties are] no longer required to submit polling place changes to the Department of Justice for preclearance.”

The above is just about poling places. Its not even considering ending of seemingly little things like Sunday voting.
Georgia’s Proposed Voting Restrictions Will Harm Black Voters Most

Also:
The rise of voter numbers comes even as Georgia Republicans work to recast voting laws in the state. In the last two years, the state's GOP-led legislature has passed two major voting bills that activists have said would hurt communities of color. The first, SB 202, created new voter identification requirements for absentee ballots, empowered state officials to take over local elections boards, limited the use of ballot drop boxes and made it a crime to approach voters in line to give them food or water.
This year's bill created an election police force with the power to investigate election fraud.
Both pieces of legislation were signed into law by Republican Gov. Brian Kemp.


SO TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION:
enough people are effected by it that 33% voted that it is a pressing issue. I don't have the numbers because how would I?
-Black voter may not bother because his local poling place closed.
-He may get his ballot rejected.
-He may miss a deadline for various reasons (Slow USPS affected a handful of votes last go-round)

Its like unemployment numbers...you have an official number and then folks who gave up and now are no longer counted. Fact is, this is a big deal and a direct punishment for last years election results. If Black folks can not vote for representation, there are no reparations.

This nikka called people scary after seeing Ohio and Georgia disproportionately purge black voters from voter polls, watch Alabama require voter ID only to turn around and shut down DMVs in black counties making it hard for them to register, and watch the state of Florida require ex convicts to fully pay restitution AFTER the voters voted yes to give ex cons the right to vote. And those are just the instances off the top of my head. These repubs don't need to bar every single black person from voting since a ton of these races are won on razor thin margins.


The kicker here is that these are all things the CBC has been pushing back against ever since they formed over 50 years ago.

All of them.

Because it's not just about casting our votes, it's about how they're counted too.

We just lost 4 Black congressional seats in Fl. We still have the right to vote, but it's guaranteed a CAC will win.

Was that due to the fukked up gerrymandering lines that desantis drew up?

What intelligent person is going to waste their time with a nikka who's on the Internet, but too stupid to look up the information himself? :skip:
I hope you're not including yourself as an intelligent person, because you'd be mistaken.

Exactly. That cat is obviously a agent, arguing in bad faith with insidious intentions, but I’ve seen to many of our folks, mainly on facebooks with similar horrible takes. The CBC is necessary, I can’t fathom how our own people would want what little representation we have gone:francis:

If you honestly believe every single black vote can be discarded on a whim, why even participate? You're gonna vote for your discarded vote to be properly counted and that vote will be the one that goes through?


Oh and disclaimer, these are your beliefs I'm feeding off of. I know good and well we got bad faith shills on this board that's gonna try to spin that. They're not here have real conversation. They're only here to name call, shill and talk about people's mothers when you let them know who they are after they came at you. :camby:
