#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.....

#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.

#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."

#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.
