Well you see things like this:


Black Lives Matter organizer calls Chicago looting ‘reparation’

https://nypost.com/2020/08/11/black-...ng-reparation/


And wonder if that's what most of them think. Is this why the crime rate is so high in the black population?

No, that’s you. I haven’t met a man that could oppress me. You’re projecting because that’s YOUR lot in life.

I don’t even know what “woke ideology” means. I was never sleep to begin with. I wasn’t raised by two limp dishrags. I’ve always been aware.

Let me get this straight. YOU Trumpistas want the woman who was one of the architects of the Iraq and Afghan WAR to go BACK to the white house????? What is wrong with you people???? My god. Haven't you had enough of black brown and white people being used as cannon fodder? The bush regime was one of the cruelest in modern history and she was at the helm. Deplorable.

We’re supposed to just forget about the whole Iraq thing.

ITA. Such a stupid term, and it's most often used by right wingers as a rhetorical device.

Yes..... People often ask me why the slogan isnt "all lives matter". I tell them because black and brown lives are the only ones on this planet that don't matter to anyone. Posts like this make my point. The Bush admin committed war crimes against humanity. What they did to the ME would make El Diablo blush. But we want THIS black woman to be president. Almost a million brown people dead. We care about our soldiers(well not Trumpers who don't mind russian bounties on their heads) but NOBODY cares about the deaths of the brown middle easterners in iraq and syria . How can Condi Rice sleep at night? Wolfawitz. Rumsfeld. Cheny. Powell. That UN speech gives me the chills.

Said it before and I will again. I'd take Condi Rice over anyone running today, 2016, 2012 or 2008. Rice/ Haley would be a great team.

Powell/ Rice or Rice Powell would have been good for 2012.

Of course it is a problem, one that smacks of breathtaking arrogance, not to mention clear-cut racism.

All people are individuals and should be respected enough to allow them the liberty of their own thoughts and beliefs. That includes people of ALL skin colors, which certainly includes black people.

Talk about patronizing and domineering.

Condoleezza Rice: "A Problem with the media" Is They Think They Know What Black People Should Think. I fixed it for her, it's that simple.
