As a community black people must stop getting so emotional about trigger words. There are certain things that as soon as black people hear them they become emotional and don't think logically anymore.
Some examples are racism, white supremacy, voter suppression, xenophobia, and racial inequality
I will also include groups such as Proud Boys, Neo Nazis, and KKK.
The Democrats have become well aware that they can bring up anything to do with these specific topics and it will trigger black people. They will become emotional and run to the polls just upon hearing anything to do with those specific topics.
The Democrats will talk about these such things just to trigger you. They will talk about and quote all sorts of stats about how black mothers are more likely to die during childbirth, how children and predominantly black schools have worse outcomes, and the racial wealth gap.
All the while the Democrats do absolutely nothing to address those issues.
I've learned to become cold-hearted. I don't become emotional when I hear anything about racism or white supremacy.
When the Democrats bring up these talking points and all they're doing is talking about it with no solution, my very next question is, " and what are you doing about it?"
Black people have to not be so triggered by the mere thought of racism. We as a people have dealt with it for over 400 years. It has to stop being an emotional trigger that you act on.
Otherwise the Democrats will bring these issues up every 2 years, never do anything to address them, and you will go vote. Absolutely nothing will change within that 2-year period and the Democrats will repeat the same thing.
I'm no longer vote based on racism. I no longer vote against the Republicans because they're racist. If that were the case then I have to somehow vote against the Democrats too.
I know I'm simply a person who votes on the issues. Which candidate is going to provide meaningful police reform with some form of punishment? Which candidate is taking steps to close the racial wealth gap? Which candidate is having a real conversation about reparations? Which candidate is proposing a hate crimes bill for black people? Which candidate is proposing resources solely for the black community?
Notice that I said candidate and not party. I will not vote down ballot for one party or another. And one candidate in a specific party has a policy that I like then I'll vote for that candidate. If the rest of them are on some BS then they won't get my vote.
As I've always said I'm not anti voting. I'm just not going to waste my time voting for someone who isn't offering me anything other than the promise that the Republicans don't have that seat because they are racist.
I don't care if a racist is in office. I only care that my vote goes to someone who is offering something to me.
