To say that there are virtually no good qualities worth voting for in Republican politicians is not a balanced, objective assessment.
It is based on lockstep and reflexive thinking. When an entire race of voters think that way, then it is a problem. The same would be true if the votes went the other way.
I don't think black people feel that way, but they do believe that a current of racism runs through the party platform, and vote the opposite way. If the GOP rid itself of white supremacy, it would gain black votes.
The concept of a Democratic plantation is based on the notion that 90% of black voters are mental slaves, incapable of critical thought or grifters looking for handouts. That is, by definition, racist. You are attributing negative, qualities to 90% of a race.
But if you're black and you stray off the Democrat plantation, it's not because you can think for yourself but because you're an alt-right dupe or you're mentally ill. Just ask Kanye.
To be clear, I do not believe that all Republicans are racist, but the solutions for dealing with racial inquality and injustice are not popular among us conservatives, so they choose to pretend that the injustice doesn’t exist. This may not be full-blown, hate-in-the-heart racism, but it perpetuates racial inequality.
Black people vote overwhelmingly dem. That is a fact. The concept of the “Democratic plantation” is something entirely different. It’s an extremely racist attempt to explain the phenomenon.
Apparently, you don't even know the meaning of the word racist. It's when one race thinks they are superior to another. Liberals use that word to label any conservatives or their ideals. It's getting old.

Perhaps the solutions that liberals propose are in themselves racist or are discriminating against others then. Some of you act like we are still in the 50's and 60's.

White supremacy is not the norm for the GOP or mainstream conservatives. There are just as many brown/black supremists among the Democrats.

Liberals used the term extensively about anyone who opposed Obama's policies, ideology, personality, etc. Anything you did not like about Obama you were labeled a racist.
That's the Plantation a Black better not stray away.
That particular cry of Racism started around 2007 and continues today. Hillary thought she could build on that theme with the sexes.
