Fuck off, Fakeahontas. Black lies don't matter. Ben Carson became a doctor because he didn't buy into the black culture of education and civilized behavior being white oppression of "our culture." Want to talk about how many black lives matter to other blacks in third-world Democratic strongholds like Chicago and Detroit? 99% of the time it's impossible to distinguish the South Side from South Sudan. This isn't because the palefaces are keeping anyone down. It's because black "culture" is an abject failure and liberals' attempt to make them be "proud" of agitating, "community organizing," and rebellion against the "establishment" has led to nothing more than generational poverty and a complete destruction of every American neighborhood where blacks are the majority.
But keep encouraging them to flip out about Republicans wanting to cut the gravy train and get pissed off that whitey don't check yo' privilege. Keep encouraging them to be "proud" of hip-hop culture and make a BFD that resumes with made-up names like D'Brickashaw don't get callbacks rather than encouraging them to pick up their pants, stop acting like hypersexual animals showing off "booty" and "bling," and change their names to, I dunno, something like "Ben Carson". In other words, keep encouraging blacks to vote Democratic because only you can solve all their problems by punishing the evil melanin-devoid bourgeoisie and making them pay for shit that happened 400 years ago and has no bearing on anyone alive today. That's right, Dems. Keep stoking the fires (smoke signals?) of racial agitation and then wonder why us white working folks and the few blacks who have made it off the handout plantation end up voting the party of civilized human beings rather than the party of primitive savages and anti-establishment agitators.
Ya boy Martin King was a Republican. If he could see the sorry state of black America today as a result of Democratic social destruction, he'd grab James Ray's gun and shoot himself.
