I’m 23 black and married 2 years have one kid and another otw . Graduated from LSU in Petroleum Engineering in 2020 .I realized that Democrats have black people in a chokehold and I don’t understand. Hopefully my kids will see that hard work equals results not handouts

Talking to others black people aren’t even educated on any type of election they literally just go up there and vote blue for no reason other than that’s what they always have done .

My point is black people have voted blue in majority for the last 50+ years and we are still at the bottom of everything. Wouldn’t common sense say try voting a different way

You are fighting a relentless media on this issue. It is unfortunate.

Nobody in Washington gives two fcks about anybody working in the real world. They are all drunk on power and lobbyists' deep pocketbooks.

Ok fair enough.

Now lets do poor white people and their voting patterns.

As a black man, and speaking for my immediate family... we know no political party represents us.

I'll bet there's more that think like you than you realize, the problem is 90% of that group STILL vote blue! It's crazy

You know, there's a political board for political posts?

That's kind of the plan for the blue folks. They need people to be dependent.

Without keeping you poor, they have no power.

Regardless of the person's color, or the party's color, this is a terrible way to do things. People should educate themselves before casting their vote.

They used to vote reliably Democrat until they realized that party would rather pander to identity politics than actually help them.

This guy's trolling.

I figured he was trolling with certain comments in his wife thread, but the I'm a black republican, petroleum engineer at 20 kind of seals it for me.
