Trump, the Obama and apes

Any black person who voted for Obama practiced racism. They voted for him because he looked like them. They thought he understood their needs better than someone who didn’t look like them.

They were wrong. He actually had very little in common as a shared life experience with any of them.

They thought he had the same characteristics as them because he looked like them. They assigned him traits because of the color of his skin that he didn’t possess.

This is the very definition of racism. Period.

It's getting to personal in my opinion.  Maybe time to lock and move on:

Probably not. There was no personal attack in the post you quote.

The truth just hits hard.

I was not taking a dig. I just see where it's headed.  I thought we had turned.

Funny you think it’s getting personal from that post (which is true) but no comment on Cardinalbacker’s post calling Trump voters racist.

Again, I'm not taking a dig at either of you.

It’s okay. The term ‘racist’ gets thrown around so much nowadays, I thought I’d just remind people what racism really was, and that it can be practiced by all—even within their own ethnic group.

That's who he is. I know many elderly people on Medicare whose services have been cut. People who were dispatched to help the elderly with bathing, cooking, medication, and cleaning are no longer doing it because of budget cuts.

My opinion:  Services will not be cut until all fraud is eliminated!

Race and religion are two subjects that can hurt or bring people together.

I can see your point.

I should have added:  Services will not need to be cut if the fraud is gone.

To those that think this is getting personal, this is really no different than Cardinalbacker claiming MAGA is racist, or any of the other "stuff" he sometimes post. Maga has been put in the racist bucket many times. 

Responding to post are optional, and I've managed to be on this board for 18 years, north of 9700 post and have never received a warning for language or personal attacks.....

If I can do, so can anyone else.....I have no special skills other than restraint.

They’re trying. (Kaiser just settled for $556 Million.) Not only this Administration, but previous as well. I remember suits against United Health Care, Aetna, and multiple others through the years to the tune of billions.

Again, the entire system needs to be ‘rejiggered’.

My guess is Boyz does not contribute to a 401K - and admittingly he claims he does not have health insurance....So unless he is a millionaire, he is one tragic accident from bankruptcy if he ever needs extensive medical care....if he chooses not to pay, it will just be a write off for the hospital, and prices will continue to rise.   

No Healthcare and dont contribute to 401k

I agree it is worth reposting because I am correct - but this is where it turned

 

How is saying "Obama rent free in MAGA head" where it turned? He obviously lives in president pedo head.. and MAGA..

The white people who hate blacks and browns aren’t voting Democrat anymore. That’s a fact. 
 

Just like the black people who blame white privilege, systemic racism, and demand reparations aren’t voting Republican, either. 
 

Does anybody dispute those two assertions?
 

Everybody has their own reasons for voting for whoever they want to. That doesn’t make them a racist. When they vote for racist reasons (the race of the candidate, etc…) that’s a racist act. 
 

Which leads me to the Republican Party today. They need the racists.  They court the racists. I was at a local town hall this week for Republican candidates. The candidates honed in on attacking illegal immigrants and Muslims to the cheers of the older, exclusively white crowd. They still bring up Barack HUSSEIN Obama as if he’s relevant anymore. Those are facts. 
 

Not everybody who voted for Trump is a racist. That’s a fact. But all of the white racists voted for Trump… that’s a fact, also, in my opinion. And when Trump does racist things to please the racist segments of his coalition (like posting the Obamas as apes, then refusing to apologize) people who consider themselves to be non-racist are notably silent, or even defensive of the overly racist actions of the President.

Instead of complaining “he called me racist,” you should be asking yourself “why do I condone racism, and does that make me a racist, too?”

And with that, I’ll back out of the convo. 
 

Y’all enjoy your afternoon.
