Why are Black rappers aligning themselves with the right?

Ah, so all the rich blacks who refuse to date/marry other blacks are still liberal? Why does the left call them “Uncle Tom race traitors?”

The black community is full of Colin Powells, Clarence Thomas, Candace Owens, Kanye West, Morgan Freeman, etc you just refuse to believe it.

Assuming all 50 million blacks are groupthink monolithic sheep helps you sleep better at night.

Where did I say this? Please point it out.

The black community is full of Clarence Thomas and Ben Carson, you just refuse to believe it.

Really? Prove it. If this were the case, the majority of the Black community would be voting republican, no?

I never said this? Maybe you should actually look for the context in my posts instead of doing, whatever it is you’re doing right now, lol

I’m not here to hold your hands, you’re a grown adult. I hope.

There are 50 million African Americans and they all don’t vote Democrat.

The trend is well recognized:

Republican candidates were backed by 14% of Black voters, compared with 8% in the last midterm elections four years ago, according to AP VoteCast

You don’t seem to know the black community…

Nearly eight-in-ten black Americans (79%) identify as Christian, according to Pew Research Center’s 2014 Religious Landscape Study.

GOP is the party of Christians, everyone knows that.

Scrolling through Twitter a couple of weeks ago, I came across a clip of rightwing commentator Tucker Carlson interviewing a face I never thought I’d see on his platform: Ice Cube.

As in **** Tha Police Ice Cube.

“What planet am I on right now?” I found myself thinking.

In a two-part segment, Ice Cube and Carlson commiserated about cancel culture and cast doubt on the safety of the Covid vaccine. “It was six months, kind of a rush job and I didn’t feel safe,” Ice Cube said about his widely-publicized resistance to the Covid shot. He also claimed that he’s been banned from appearing on the talkshows The View and Oprah because he is too much of an “independent thinker”.

It seems Ice Cube has become quite the conservative media darling lately, sitting down with not just Carlson, but Joe Rogan and Piers Morgan as well. He’s joining a long list of rappers – Kanye West, Da Baby, Kodak Black, Lil Pump – who have all put themselves in dangerous proximity to conservative politicians even as rightwing populism threatens to destroy their communities...

I think people are waking up to the insanity that has become the woke left, which sadly makes up the predominate white Democratic Party voters, and 90% of their elected politicians.

People who, in the past, just blindly voted DEMOCRAT without giving it a single thought, have had their eyes opened up. They are disgusted by the idiot Biden, and they have no respect for the crazy woke Democrats in the news media, and on the campaign trail, who support that vegetable. People have woken up, they no longer want to be associated with these people.

Anyone who was paying attention was seeing the split between blacks and Latinos during COVID. Those groups were not jumping on board the vax bandwagon.

Even the people of Hawaii are starting to wake up. It's always always been taken for granted that Hawaiians will vote Democrat. But no longer. They saw how brainless, witless, Joe Biden was unconcerned and didn't seem to care about the death and destruction the wild fires visited upon the people there.
