This board loves context so much. Lets do some context.
- American colonists commit one of the greatest sins in American Slavery
- Founding Fathers took part in owing slaves no matter how deplorable they thought the practice was.... still owned people, never freed them
- Pimp Daddy George takes a knee to franchising African Slaves in the Constitution because parts of Congress refused to sign to a Union with Africans being represented. The compromise is 3/5ths representation.
- Americans win independence and continue an era of absolute evil, torture and desecration towards the Africans who harvest the crops and built the country infrastructure
- Willie Lynch writes a letter stating he found the secret to fucking up those black people, sends it off to virtually all the slave owners. (the letter details issues that still plague the Black Community today)
- Dred Scott sues for his freedom on the grounds that he was kept as a slave in a free state..... He loses
- Slavery continues until the rise of Abolitionists which some even claim may have been for fiscal reasons rather than moral
- Confederacy rises as the South wants to maintain its economics and continue practicing Slavery
- The North goes to war with the Southern Traitors, and beats them. But poor Abraham doesn't want to rock the boat too much so he spares the lives of racists traitors allowing them to continue breathing. Not only that, he felt really bad they lost their breadwinner, so the Govt grants the traitors tax breaks and grants so they can continue enjoying their lives.
- Confederate crybabies get salty and butthurt and decide to stick to those Blacks during the Reconstruction Era. These practices evolve into Jim Crow
- Confederate Wives say "Don't leave us out!", they band and create the Daughters of the Confederacy. Their main mission is to embed the Confederate mission into schools and the education system known as the 'Lost Cause'
- Jim Crow comes in full effect, Segregation starts happening
- Lynchings become house parties, bring your kids! They'll be fine killers when they get older
- Black people are able to build a wealthy and beautiful community in Tulsa, only to be destroyed by evil jealous white racists who burned the town
- White people get bored and start to dress in blackface. Help create stereotypes that plague us today.
- KKK starts riding around killing black kids, black folk.... well anyone black...
- Black soldiers go fight WW2, US Army tells the British they need to treat em like shit so they don't get any ideas... Some Black soldiers end up staying in France because fuckkkkkk that
- Black People start to ask for representation, White People think they crazy as shit for even asking...
- Civil Rights Movements begin to form, KKKPolice start killing and beating everyones ass (they were doing this before, just upped it)
Mississippi Killings
- White Supremacists bomb a church in Alabama killing young black girls
- FBI starts spying and infiltrating Black Movements like Black Panthers and Civil Rights
- MLK gets killed, Malcolm gets killed
- Black People get fed up and burn everything..... oh! Civil Rights!
- Damn near nothing changes, Black people still get their ass beat and killed.... but they can vote now!! Oh wait.... Voter Laws and bullshit..... plus the poll operators who's just like "fuck no, law or not, you aint voting shit"
- Housing discrimination takes effect, Black people can't get grants nor any assistance
- The government drops a whole ass bomb on black people in Philly (MOVE)
- Crack becomes an epidemic when the CIA starts feeding the shit to low level dealers, they end up circling back and arresting the same dealers they supplied
- The response to Crack is a War on Drugs by Reagan, with strict jail time sentences. This begins Mass Incarceration. (The response to Opiods is love)
- Clinton continues Reagan's War on Drugs. FIRST BLACK PRESIDENT WHOO
- Rodney King gets his ass BEAT on camera..... All officers innocent, I mean he deserved it.
- GW Bush essentially cuts and limits funding for Black Education and the NAACP
- GW Bush and the State allows countless black lives to die in Katrina due to lackluster response
- Obama becomes president, meanwhile a portion of the country gets really pissed...
- A POS wannabe cop murders a young black boy going to the store. White America celebrates him.
- President tears up about the thought of a lost black youth..... The country GETS PISSED.
- Unarmed killings by Cops become national news, Black Lives Matters is formed. The country responds by demonizing the movement as terrorists.
- Bony hateful white kid runs into a black church and kills people. Find FB pics and posts of his hateful racist ass but the killing is about "religion" tho
- As a response to the President.... existing.... White People form the hateful Tea Party to primary Republicans and steer the party to its current form
- Republicans give the President the finger on virtually...... everything....
- A Clown, denied by his homeland... puts his bid in for President. Runs his platform off Racism. White America Cheers!
- The Clown wins* (Foreign Interference, Voter Suppresion) and proceeds to essentially fuck shit up. White Supremacists begin to feel validated. They take off the hoods and replace it with a Red Cap
- Supremacists march in Charlottesville and kill a white woman. The Clown refers to them as fine people.
- Clown makes an attack on Black NFL players for bringing attention to unarmed police killings. He uses language worse than what he used for Nazis and ISIS
- Clown begins to target immigration coming from "shithole countries". Why can't we have more people form Norway?
- White Supremacist activity and hate crimes make a huge increase statically. Clown ignores this. Also he defunds the FBI from investigating those crimes.
- Clown threatens to bring back Stop and Frisk nationally, a program that targets Black Americans for..... existing
- Clown tightens his rhetoric which motivates more people to act in violence. Train Attack, Parkland, Bombs, Synagogue shooting.
- White Americans start to get comfortable with Black Face again... I mean, its just Halloween, right?
- Voter Suppression happens nationally in the latest election with the worst being GA and parts of FL. Openly Racist candidates are re-elected into office again.....
So yeah, You're absolutely right Bernie. In the context of America, being afraid to vote for someone who's black because they are black isn't racism.... Its.... uh.... well..... what do we call it then?
