re: A major impediment to upward mobility for blacks is racist landlords.

I don't know. I was under the impression you thought that because this board was generally conservative, it was black obsessed.

---

Nah I'm equal opportunity. I think this board is black obsessed because threads and post counts have shown me this board is black obsessed. Tuba or trackfan, etc posts also are included in my assessment.

quote:

---

Of course, I think the whole "black obsessed" thing is silly because OF COURSE discussions of race are going to happen on a political board of any stripe.

---

Its not that it happens, its the frequency of black threads that makes this board black obsessed.

quote:

---

Hell, people who represent the President can't go 5 fricking minutes without implying or outright saying that those who fight against him do so based upon race.

---

They are also black obsessed.

quote:

---

How the frick can you have that going on and NOT anticipate a lot of race talk?

---

No no, not just race talk, specifically black race talk. I guess the whole country is :blackobsessed: then

I'm a pretty open minded guy but this is a red flag IMO. Any neck or facial tats, I have to question their judgement.

You have a race that votes 95+% for one particular party. That race, on the whole, ROUTINELY assumes racist motivations in any negative interaction between a black and non-black.

It took about 5 seconds for me to bump into columns by blacks on prominent left wing sites that basically called Tim Scott and Mia Love Uncle Toms.

The reality is, as a group BLACKS are "black obsessed". We have people arguing that Obama's declining numbers are are a result of racism and I will GUARANTEE YOU that a large majority of blacks believe this. I can only assume they must think whites who used to approve of Obama but now do not just figured out he was black in about 2012.

I can guarantee you that if asked, the vast majority of blacks would tell you conservatives in South Carolina are racists. And even after those conservatives elected a black man, I can guarantee you that this fact will barely register a blip on the black view of conservative South Carolinians.

Finally, if there is one group of people that deserves real sympathy, it's a black conservative. shite. They get the wonderful privilege of basically being persona non grata among their own race.

And yet, you want to throw darts at white people talking about race?

Alot of assumptions and guarantees there. You must study black people to know them so well. Regardless of the intellectualization, you are still :blackobsessed:

Firstly, its not just race, its black race.

Secondly, I am not throwing darts, just acknowledging a fact on this board. Not sure why you're getting so butthurt about it.

DAMNIT, IT'S :Blacksessed:

I think you know them well enough to know that my assertions were accurate.

No I don't. I guess maybe you just know black people better than I do.

:blackobsessed:

quote:

K. Well, I would submit that given the ONLY race that votes as a literal block is the black race, this is hardly surprising.

---

So you think the only reason blacks get discussed to this level is only because of their voting patterns?

Okay, well you don't think its worth discussing why Asians, Jewish, etc vote around 75% for Obama? I mean, sure its not 95, but you don't think a thread or two diving into this issue is warranted on a political message board. Literally they don't exist hear. But there are 8274/month about blacks and their voting.

Hence, :blackobsessed:

quote:

---

Using the word "obsessed" is a negative connotation.

---

Would you prefer :blackinfatuation:

quote:

---

I happen to think that the best thing for our nation and for blacks would be if they stopped voting as if they were all sharing the same brain.

---

Southern whites have the same issue, but no one here thinks our nation would be better if that stopped.

Hence, :blackobsessed:

Good God. Were you laughing when you typed that? You compared how a couple of groups vote for Obama to how a group had voted in block in almost every election at every level for 4 decades? Jeebus.

quote:

Southern whites have the same issue,

False. Southern white voting patterns are not remotely similar to those of blacks because if they were, no democrat would have been voted to a southern statewide office in more than 4 decades. Sheesh. At least try to not be willfully obtuse
