In the wake of Trump’s motorcade driving through the Atlanta ghetto - in order to film a few black people cheering for a conservative - we’re once again seeing a bunch of conservative talking heads rehash the same tired bullshit about blacks waking up to the corruption and degeneracy of the left. These pundits are claiming that black support for Trump is now at 20% and climbing!
Nonsense. The reality is that we have a cottage industry of black content creators, influencers, and reactors who promote conservatism not for a black audience but rather for a white conservative audience. Because white conservatives are absolutely terrified of being labeled racist, so black creators are ready to cash in with content that serves that demographic.
Blacks are never going to support republicans.
This is true, however I have noticed black culture is starting to shift. I have had the opportunity to be closer to black culture these days and have been surprised by a few things:
-refusing to call themselves "black", instead going with "melanated".
-high focus on industriousness
-clinging to Christianity, much more so than whites.
It certainly doesn't mean it's different now, but my gut is the momentum has started to shift that direction.
Yeah this one was strange and took me by surprise.
I first noticed it with a survivalist gardener YouTuber and wrote it off as him being nuts, but then I ran into a woman who used the term in a professional conference call and was like "woah, maybe this is a real term?"
Blacks always let us down. Don’t fall for it.
Like I said, I don't expect any changes for voting in immediate future but my latest interactions with the black community have been positive.
I just bumped into a black guy leaving an elevator at night and he turned around to yell at me "Jesus loves you".
A black woman chatting me up at a bar had to take a break for conference call on running your own business.
Imagine white liberals doing either of these things. Unheard of.
Something is shifting culture wise there. It might not translate into votes just yet, but I think it can be cultivated and gives me a lot of hope.
That totally happened.
You are the “target audience” I’m talking about.
You didn’t understand the post. The target audience for black conservative content creators is white people. There aren’t enough black conservatives to constitute a profitable demographic. There are, however, tons of white conservatives who are desperate to prove themselves not racist, and that’s the primary appeal of black conservative creators. “How can I be racist if I agree with this based black dude?” It’s a pathetic acquiescence to the leftist worldview on racism as a legitimate accusation and not an exclusively anti-white bludgeon.
Thank god the 66% of black men who aren't felons, and thereby might vote, have started to realize the Left doesn't like them. I'm sure they will all now throw off their entire culture, reject their mothers, and become upright citizens worth calling our countrymen!
They certainly aren't just feeding an empty line about not voting for someone they weren't voting for anyway or doing the easiest action to win your approval with no followthrough to fix the problem.
I mean, black voter turnout is about 51%. So that gnarly 1 in 3 black men left who can and do vote I'm sure are all the ones who are turning to our side.
Good GOD please stop. This is not based in an applicable reality.
Absolutely. Probably why they are keeping it underground.
