That's just one sided propaganda nonsense.
If the democrats were in power, with the black nationalist representing them, then the shoe is on the other foot.
No one gets a pass and who is in power isn't reason or solution.
Its just highlights the back and forth transition of party power. A transition that for the first time the democrats can't accept. Everyone said they would win. When they didn't win, they broke all the mirrors b/c they couldn't stand to see the reason they lost. Then they fallback on the same old crap they have been selling for decades. Claiming anyone with different views is racist, bla, bla, bla, etc......
Black nationalists do not represent the Democratic party. White nationalists do, however, represent the Republican party under trump. He even admitted he is one!
Sadly it didn't take long before someone would target a straight white male expressing their view and race shame them for not voting democrat.
naw you are either not reading what i said or purposely not telling the truth.
I clearly stated that the poster would see a TAX cost to voting Rethug.
But like many other people here you misrepresented what i said, just like Trump does.
why? Well you guys can't win honest debate so you make things up . In fact playing the victim is about all you have left.
You want to know the real reason why older white guys are shooting themselves in record numbers? do ya?
read up on Republican economic policy and you will find your answer. (to be clear the dems are guilty of doing to little to reverse those policies, but thank god that is changing)
One thing we know for sure.
The democrats keep lying to themselves and have learned nothing from the last presidential election where they lied to everyone else, and lost.
What's your answer why young white people want to belong to a party that hates them ?
You've yet to address just where these young people find themselves affiliated politically.
Why is that?
Do the data not exist?
Or do you prefer to ignore what they show?
Regardless of how/whether young people choose to define themselves as "democrat" or "republican" or something else, the trends speak for themselves.
"Young voters also backed Democratic candidates in historic numbers, playing a critical role in some Democratic victories and narrowing the margin in some losses, exit polls suggest. More than two-thirds of voters aged 18 to 29 voted for Democrats in the 2018 election, compared with 32 percent who supported Republican candidates.
...
"In an overwhelming number of races, according to the exit polls, the Democrats won the younger vote – folks under the age of 45 – and they lost folks over the age of 45," says John Della Volpe, director of polling at the Institute of Politics at Harvard University. It's a trend, he said, that has been consistent in recent special elections as well."
"How can we explain what looks to be a long-term decline for the Republican brand? Age, for one thing. From the beginning of the Trump administration the oldest Americans, those aged 50 and over, have consistently given Trump his highest approval ratings while young people aged 18–29 have consistently given him his lowest approval ratings."
the liberalism fad is almost dead. it's fun to watch the democratic party cannibalize itself in the name of "progress." no one takes it seriously anymore, and most people with a brain have simply dismissed the party altogether.

Most voters have dismissed both parties altogether.
Odd that people keep ignoring that.
"In politics, as of today, do you consider yourself a Republican, a Democrat or an independent?
I’m a straight white male (early 40s) who votes Democrat because I think their economic policies best support upward mobility and the working and middle classes. The excesses of identity politics annoy me, but not so much that I would consider voting against my own economic interests by supporting Republicans. Who do you plan to vote for in the future?
It depends on who runs. I want to vote for centrist policies. The intersectionality of the left irritates me enough that I won't vote for those who focus so hard on that. I'm also not a fan of the socialist wing espoused by Bernie Sanders and his ilk. In my state, we are seeing a number of new taxes. There's never enough taxes for the Dems. And, although I DO think the media's coverage is heavily biased against him, I don't think Trump is the guy to bring the country together.
What I really want to see is the proverbial "adult in the room" to run. I like what I see of the new guy from Texas, Dan Crenshaw.
Black nationalists do not represent the Democratic party. White nationalists do, however, represent the Republican party under trump. He even admitted he is one!
The Democrat Party is a conglomeration of several nationalist and identity groups.
Are you kidding??? Haven't you paid attention for the last decade? Every time one opens a browser or a newspaper, there is some story or op-ed about how "troubling and problematic" we of the Caucasian persuasion are.
It's never hard to find something to be outraged about if you look hard enough. Just about all of us see only what we want to see.
None of this hoohah, be it real or imagined, has had the slightest negative impact on how I am able to live my life as an old white dude.
Bunch of frikkin' whiners! It's a tough life for some to see white privilege finally being eroded, I guess.
