Please provide some book titles that have been banned. Please provide names, dates ad states of the governors you accuse of poisoning blacks. Please provide titles of history books that justify secession as the "lost cause" and states where they're used. IOW, put up or…
Asking for voter ID ain't voter suppression. Having over 50% of voting machines in heavily Republican Maricopa County fail on election day, 2022 because they were "accidentally" set up wrong is voter suppression.
It's interesting that you don't seem to care about rotten inner city schools, as you blithely ignore them in your response. Further, the systemic racism in a most all big American cities was set up but the Democrats who have run then for decades. For example, the last Republican mayor of Chicago left office in 1931.
Why is the left obssessed with race? The explanation is identity voting. If you vote your identity, bad governance is irrelevant. It doesn't change your identity. So you keep voting your identity, even though the government gets worse and worse. If you're convinced your identity means you vote for leftist Democrats, you continue to vote for leftist Democrats, regardless of how bad they do in governing.
Typical Conservative gibberish. If no books are being banned, why are teachers suing the state of Florida and DeSantis? I named some of the books. Republicans in multiple states want to cut education funding. The Republicans in Missouri wanted to defund public libraries.
Regarding poisoning, Google Flint and Jackson
So-called identity voting is because Republicans are so vile. Conservatives are the biggest gift the Democrats receive.
Why are you not confronting the racists in the GOP? They are are big reason Republicans don’t appeal to Black voters.
Republicans are supporting a guy who had to shut down a university and a charity because they were frauds. He is also on trial for rape. Conservatives argue that Clarence Thomas is more moral than President Obama, even as we see Thomas rake in money while refusing to recuse himself from cases with a conflict of interest.
Republicans ran Herschel Walker. It is starting to appear that he is a money grabber like Clarence Thomas.
Conservatives are hilarious.
Edit to add:
What is tiresome about discussions with Conservatives is that they repeatedly disparage Democrats. They never argue about how well Blacks are doing in Republican led states. Because they are not. On a national level, Republicans want to cut education funding in a way that would impact low-income children. They will the blame Democratic mayors for poor outcomes.
You named no books. You named some subjects, that's all. You were as vague as possible.
Flint, MI,and Jackson, MS, are both cities being sued for lead in their water. The states ain't involved. Both cities have now, and have had, Democrats for mayors. Michigan has a Democrat governor as well, Gretchen Whitmer.
Your comments on conservatives are fact free emotion. Trump is being sued in civil court for a rape that allegedly happened almost 20 years ago. He's not being tried criminally for rape. The rest of your allegations have no supporting evidence. Using your standard of evidence, there's ample evidence of cheating in the 2020 election. If we're using the Democrats' 2020 election standard of evidence, that it has to have been accepted in a court of law, you have no evidence.
I argue how poorly blacks are doing in Democrat run cities. You have no counter argument at all. You simply ignore the lousy schools, high crime, unemployment and the corruption of Democrat run cities. You blame Republicans for Flint and Jackson, even though Democrats are responsible.
It's a fact that black unemployment hit an modern low under Trump. It's gotten higher since he left office, due to Biden's policies.
Your article on textbooks is 6 years old. It refers to books and teaching that are even older. They have most likely changed. However, it's hard to call your ancestors totally guilty. I grew up in Montana and Illinois. I would imagine you don't know that Henry Plummer was the Sherriff of Bannock, MT, who built a gallows as a warning to the outlaw band that had killed over 100 people in the gold fields around Bannock and Virginia City, MT, in the fall and winter of 1863. You probably also don't know that vigilantes hung him on his own gallows in January,1864, because he was the leader of the gang. This was described in my grade school textbooks as a good thing, because the rest of the country was too busy with the Civil War to care about law and order in Montana at that time. The people had no other choice. I'm sure you're appalled. A federal judge arrived in the spring of 1864 and the vigilante activity stopped. FYI, all victims and perpetrators were white.
For Democrats, the only black lives that matter are the 18 or so that are killed by police every year. The hundreds shot as a result of defunding the police don't matter to Democrats at all. The Democrats are the party of slavery, secession, the KKK, Jim Crow, segregation, poll taxes and literacy tests. You would think with that history, they deserve close scrutiny, but you don't give them any.
No further comment on Flint or Jackson. No further comment on patronage schools in Democrat run inner cities. I don't deal with Democrat propaganda sites like WaPo. My statement and their statement ain't mutually exclusive, although their statement probably requires new definitions of unemployment. I too am tired of dealing with your organic fertilizer of bovine origin with excessive masculinity. As a source of emotional racial hatred against whitey, you're tops. Facts, not so much.
In California, the crime rate is higher in Republican run Fresno and Bakersfield than Democratic led Los Angeles and San Francisco
The homicide rate is higher in Miami than San Francisco
“Tulsa (19.64) and Oklahoma City (11.16) have Republican mayors in a Republican state and have murder rates that dwarf that of Los Angeles (6.74).”
In Kentucky, “Lexington’s Republican mayor saw record homicides in 2020 and 2021, with a murder rate (10.61) nearly twice that of New York City (5.94).
“Bakersfield (11.91) and Fresno (14.09) each have Republican mayors and murder rates far higher than either San Francisco (5.6) or Los Angeles (6.74).”
I provide you with facts. You reject them because they do not fit your narrative. No response to the financial dealings of Thomas. Typical Conservative shill.
Conservatives have nothing to offer Black voters so their supporters go out and throw trash on Democrats. Point out Clarence Thomas’ financial shenanigans and you are told that he is a deep thinkings jurist. Please don’t look at the gifts. Black people are poisoned by Governors and the party that yells about personal responsibility says the Governor’s had no power to do anything. The Conservative is the greatest gift to Democrats because Republicans are in denial about the problems in their party.
Republicans justify suppressing votes. The majority still think Trump won the election. Why would people want to be in the delusional GOP.
Cities are suffering. In the Republican bubble, just say DemocRAT and Republican mayors are left off the hook. No wonder why the overwhelming number of Black voters can’t stand the GOP. Republicans are comfortable with racists in leadership positions.
The other blessing that benefits Democratic Party members is when Conservatives attack with arrogance and ignorance. Why would anyone want to be in a party that includes people like you? Black voters don’t go to the polls looking for Superman. Black voters go to the polls to keep people like you from having any influence in their lives.
We see you as people full of anger and fear. A teenager knocks on the door and you shoot him in the head. A man on a subway has a mental breakdown. He poses no physical danger. You take pride in choking him to death.
Black voters will make sure that our families survive and thrive. Even if the racist conman Trump is re-elected, we will survive. What the majority will never do is join a party that makes excuses for racists.
Byron Donalds appears physically as a strong Black male. The GOP reduced him to a prop during the Speaker vote. He was reduced to the level of “Samuel” from the movie “Django”. Most of us are not willing to lower ourselves to his level just to be on the same side of the aisle as Republicans.
Your characterization of me is pure prejudice, since you don't know me. My sister in law, is the best thing that ever happened to my little brother. My wife and I love taking joint vacations with them. She also happens to be black.
It's ironic that blacks vote reflexively for Democrats, given that the Republican party was founded to fight slavery. I know that because members of my family, on both sides, were abolitionist Republicans in the 1850's. On my dad's side, my grandmother's grandfather and great grandfather were Kansas Red Legs, who fought for abolition before the Civil War even started. On my mom's side, my grandmother's grandfather, a Methodist Minister, preached abolition in Virginia in the 1850's.
Democrats are so racist that they say every black Republican is a token. Sen. Tim Scott (R, SC) writes Republican tax and police reform legislation. Rep. Byron Donalds was on of the conservative leaders in the fight to make Speaker McCarthy reform House rules. Justice Clarence Thomas is a great legal mind that leads the fight for originalism on the Supreme Court. Democrats say all of these blacks are "Uncle Toms" for disagreeing with Democrats. That's racist.
You've had plenty of opportunity to respond to the mess that Democrats have made of the areas they control, particularly the urban black areas. You've ignored all of it, because you'd rather hate Republicans than solve problems.
As a Republican, I don't hate Democrats. I just would prefer to have the Constitution and the rule of law left in force, including the 14th Amendment and the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The best way to stop discrimination by race is to stop discriminating by race.
This 2023. Republicans are now the party providing aid and comfort to racists like the Proud Boys. Republicans cannot fall back on the past. I disagree with the politics of Donald and Thomas. I would never call Thomas and Donald Uncle Toms. Uncle Tom was a hero. If I were going to use a name for Thomas and Donald, it would be Sambo. Most of the disagreements with Black Conservative is about policy. I disagree with policies.
You appear to ignore the financial dealings of Justice Thomas. I do not consider him an honorable man. I would say President Obama is the more honorable of the two.
You ranted about Black unemployment. Biden has low Black unemployment numbers. Feel free to continue your disjointed rant. I find it amusing.
You have not given a concrete reason for Black voters to support a Republican Party that suppresses Black votes and defunds education. Keep trying to distract.
Now that I've shown Democrats were responsible for poisoning Blacks in Flint and Jacksonville, that no longer seems to be your problem anymore. You were outraged before.
Justice Thomas had fewer unreported paid trips than Justices Ginsberg and Breyer in a similar period. Were they corrupt? None of the business before the Supreme Court has involved Justice Thomas' friend. Justice Sotomayor had received $3 million in fees and book advances from Penguin Books, but refused to recuse herself from a Penguin book case.
You talk about policy disagreements with black conservatives, without mentioning any of the actual policies.
I am amused with your refusal to defend any Democrat policy. You only smear Republicans without specifics. When the specifics trip you up, you ignore it and move on. This tactic shows the weakness of your arguments, and the strength if your irrational emotions.
You admit that Thomas hid gifts. If other judges did anything similar they should face the heat as well. You keep asking for specifics here are some banned books

The rape case is civil, as you well know
The Black unemployment rate under a Democratic President is historically low
Black unemployment has never before been this close to White unemployment
