These women rail against the establishment, against the DNC poverty pimps, against illegal immigration... if you agree with those premises, but you don't like them saying it, then....

Why? No more contrived or over the top with the humor than, say, Steven Crowder

Same reason most support D&S

I think you're way off base here. They're being themselves and they happen to be black/right wing. That's it. You don't have to like their schtick, but your reasoning is pretty tepid.

Obviously the same as my thoughts on Jason Whitlock, Kevin Sumlin, my Dad, Michelle Obama, BlackHelicopterPilot, Donald Glover, and Darius Rucker.

Since we're just lumping random black people together now.


Hahahahaha amazing.

Maybe. I think people are looking for black (or female) mascots and will take what they can get. I find it patronizing. That's just me.

They're free to be themselves but I don't find them particularly interesting or thoughtful. In the same way that I wasn't impressed by Tomi Lahren.

You made a really loose statement. I replied with an equally loose statement.

You're reaching. Maybe some want that, but most just agree with what they say. Like what propels most of these personalities.

It'd be patronizing if they were saying people should support them because they're black or female. That's not what's happening here.

That's the second time you said that. Your virtue has been signaled. I doubt Diamond and Silk could give a flying frick how you feel about their situation.

Nope. Mischaracterization on your part.

You are projecting your racism. Black women with opinions must just be schtick. How racist is that.

Yeah it's his go-to. Funny, I don't feel patronized by them at all.

uh... why do you think people support them? People on the right badly want black people to spout something they agree with. Even if those people sometimes say dumb stuff and act like clowns.

I have this weird approach that might sound racist but hear me out: I don't care what color someone is; I care about what they say and how they act.

I don't find them to be impressive or insightful.
