Tend to vote for democrats and one thing they bring up is the whole “cops are hunting us down” narrative and I’ve tried to go over the actual stats til I was blue in the face. George Floyd was just confirmation to them how racist everything is and Jan 6 was white privilege in action to their minds. I have one cousin who hasn’t talked to me since then
Yea. What is very puzzling to me is that you have black people half my age (I’m 41) and younger who speak as if they are living in 1880s Alabama. But I think a lot of that has to do with brainwashing young people to see racism every and to endlessly focus on the past. Growing up none of my older relatives who grew up in the south had a chip on their shoulders but oddly they were very conservative but voted Democrat. Although my grandfather who was very religious and was a deacon at his church stopped voting dem when they pushed gay stuff.
Count me as one. I sadly have quite a few “everything is racist” cousins that I debate with but can’t seem to get through to them.
Same. I say they need to go home, because it's people like them that shit the bed, and made me leave "home".
Who did they tend to vote for? and what political bs do they usually bring up?

More power to you. I hear there’s quite a bit of peer pressure to be “liberal” in many African American circles.
