Black Lives Literally Don't Matter to Democrats
2020-06-10
Breitbart via Instapundit
Even though we know the coronavirus ravages black people at a much higher rate than other groups, Democrats are still actively encouraging black people to go outside and gather in large groups.
And the main reason coronavirus ravages black people at a much higher rate than other groups, is (IMO) not vitamin D and the rest of these "just so stories" but because quarantine wasn't enforced in inner cities.
Each compounds all the others, I suspect.
Black lives literally don’t matter to Democrats.

At the local and federal level, Democrats are actively seeking to either weaken or abolish police departments that protect predominantly black neighborhoods and cities.

Black lives literally don’t matter to Democrats.

Look at how Democrats protested George Floyd’s tragic death on Monday. Here’s a photo. Look at how they practiced safe social distancing... And yet these same Democrats are actively encouraging black people to go out and gather in large groups.

Black lives literally don’t matter to Democrats.

Democrats lobby relentlessly for illegal and unskilled immigrants to enter our country, which disproportionately steals jobs and lowers the wages of black Americans.

Black lives literally don’t matter to Democrats.

Democrats openly and aggressively campaign to destroy the education reforms that predominantly black urban areas most desperately need — school choice and charter schools.

Black lives literally don’t matter to Democrats.

The number of black people murdered every week in cities like Chicago and Baltimore, cities that have been run exclusively by Democrats for decades, should be a national scandal, but nothing is ever done. While countless black people fall, it’s all swept under the rug to protect the Democrat Political Machine.

Black lives literally don’t matter to Democrats.

To Democrats, black people are cannon fodder, expendable soldiers in their social justice war for power. As Democrats safely social distance, they urge their cannon fodder to take it to the streets; as Democrats send their own children to private schools, they push their cannon fodder into failing schools; as Democrats enjoy private security, they call for defunding the police that protects black Americans.

It is in Democrat-run cities where black people are gunned down daily.

It is in Democrat-run cities where the water turns to poison.
On the other hand, you do have a small black upper class - mostly in politics where they (mostly) rob their constituents blind.

#9  Yes, "Dems Are Teh Real Racists!"

If we just say that five googol more times, the GOP can get its share of the black vote up to six percent!

Success!

The average black knows they're despised by Dems, but they've made the rational calculation that they can accept this as long as the Free Sheeit keeps coming.

They aren't innocent naifs being led astray by more cunning whites; they're rational actors who have found a means of resource extraction that's been working for them for a long time.

You or I might point out that in the grand scheme of things, they're more harmed than helped by this attitude; but how many people make their day to day decisions on the basis of the big picture?

Time to stop pretending that everything that's happening is because they're being led astray by crafty badwhites.

That's actually racist, you know.

Instead, hold them accountable like you would any autonomous adult.

And if we truly decide that they can't be held accountable, then it's time to start taking away some of their rights.

We don't allow children to vote or hold office, after all.

None of the above should be taken to mean that we won't have to deal with white left as well, of course.

#6  Soviet historian Anton Antonov-Ovseyenko attributes the following version to Stalin: "When one man dies it's a tragedy. When thousands die it's statistics."

#5  Individual lives matter to certain other individuals.

Groupism has never mattered to anyone other than tribal leaders and they didn't consider those individuals.

#3  And the American Indians (for the benefit of the railroad industry)?

#2  No mention of how well Planned Parenthood has treated the black community.

As for me I think NO lives matter: Europe’s Jews in the 1930s, Armenians living in Turkey, Irish in 1851, non-communists in Soviet Union, China, Vietnam, Laos.....
