Charles Barkley slams politicians, says 'system' is set up to 'divide and conquer'

Video Clip
LINK


the entire quote

"Man, I think most white people and Black people are great people. I really believe that in my heart, but I think our system is set up where our politicians, whether they’re Republicans or Democrats, are designed to make us not like each other so they can keep their grasp of money and power. They divide and conquer.

I truly believe in my heart most white people and Black people are awesome people, but we’re so stupid following our politicians, whether they’re Republicans or Democrats, and their only job is, ‘Hey, let’s make these people not like each other. We don’t live in their neighborhoods, we all got money, let’s make the whites and Blacks not like each other, let’s make rich people and poor people not like each other, let’s scramble the middle class.' I truly believe that in my heart."

I mean he’s right but wtf why do they feel the need to talk about this stuff while covering a basketball game. Just talk about the game good lord this race crap doesn’t have to be forced on us everywhere we look

Then you scroll down and his point is instantly disproved. The hate is real and probably at the highest water mark since the early 70s. People are gullible

Chuck is beyond cancellation but even if he wasn’t, that’s pretty mild stuff to say.

agreed 100%

but the reason this particular clip is newsworthy is because it's refreshing to finally see someone stand up to the complete, one sided propaganda that the NBA has been pumping out over the last year.

all the NBA has done is promote anti-America propaganda and pure hatred.

Did he just say most white people are great people?

And why was black capitalized in the quote?

Chuck ain’t getting cancelled. No woke, white exec has the balls to go after him and if they did Chuck would call them out live on television. I don’t think he nor Shaq are able to be cancelled. Most will laugh it off as Chuck being Chuck.

That's one Auburn tiger I can get behind. Charles tells it like he sees it.

Another liberal that thinks a black man’s opinion doesn’t mean anything.
