We were done with racism before Obama was elected.

Growing up as a late gen x and knowing the early millennials, it was over! Our parents were more worried about than us.

It really sucks what happened after that a-hole was elected.

Yep. The divider in chief really set the country back.

He did what he promised to do - radically transform America. He was better than Biden though IMO

Positive. Obama really mastered the “whitey is the devil” bullshite to black folks all while passing policies making black folks more dependent on the government and keeping his foot on their neck.

And he ran on the opposite.

Remember the pre Obama days?
- no kneeling for the anthem
- no gay marriage
- no June pride month
- no BLM
- no pronouns
- no gender neutral
- no equity language

Culture has gone off the rails

Obama was planted to destroy America.

It worked. The Muslim Brotherhood has a long-term plan to take over the West. A lot of politicians in their back pocket.

Race relations were the best they had ever been in this country up until Obama went in. That is true. They had also been better the 10-12 years prior to that.

That was in the mid 90s. Before Obama nobody gave a shite about race anymore it seemed to me.

This is so spot on. In 2005 in high school I don’t remember any racism

White people have done all they can to let racism die. Black people are the ones keeping it alive now

I think he just highlighted and normalized the black racism that was already there.

U are really funny with that assessment, really, 2016 presidential candidate started the divide and has done everything he can to continue the divide, President Obama’s 2 terms sparked a backlash from white america which lead to trump’s election

There was pockets of both white and black racism within the older generations, but it was dead within gen x. I think it still is.

Yep. Didn’t help that the one who ushered it in started by questioning if he was even American. Thinly veiled for sure.

I partially blame Obama for the Dallas and Baton Rouge shootings. He threw gas on the anti-police rhetoric around racism. There is no evidence to support that unarmed black people are shot regularly by cops. It’s maybe around 10 people per year that are found to be a bad shooting. .

Have to have someone to blame for their own cultural failures. Not taking personal responsibility is a real epidemic in the black community, they will continue to fall behind with that mindset. Plus they're constantly told by chicken shite coward white people that their failures are due to some sort of systemic conspiracy to keep them down.
