You never know, some black dudes live in a bubble.

I was born and raised in the ghetto, when I went to college and beyond I met some black dudes that had an aura that was even whiter than some white people I've met. If we spoke for longer, I'd probably find out they voted Trump.

That or some people are willing to throw away their dignity for internet kudos.

That or they never had it to begin with.

You'd be surprised how ignorant and self-diluted some dudes can be. I mean for a public figure right now, look at CE's favorite motivational speaker, Low Tier God:

Damn I hope I don't get modded for this thumbnail..

-- Or those two chicks that shill for Trump with the most offensive and I-hope-it's-not-real ratchet, stereotype mannerisms:

Some people are truely lost. Diamond and silk (lol @ those names) are some of them. Its a literal minstrel show

Any time a black dude backs up white people views that hurt the black community, he becomes the smartest black guy they know.

Ethnicity and race are two different things

ethnicity and race seem to be disregarded come sporting events. where everyone is just AMERICAN.

It's hard to imagine different viewpoints from different walks of life I guess.

I seriously can't figure those two out.

I know they were lifelong democrats before Trump started running, so it's easy to think they're in it just for the money. But to do it so consistently for this long with no cracks in the facade makes me believe they're actually genuine.

And I think that's more scarier than them faking the funk for the money and fame. It's like a couple of slugs campaigning for a salt shaker, I can't wrap my head around it.

They started making tons of money once they became Trump shills, in fact there are alot of people like them who were ultimately in their corners on the net but once they hitched on to Trump town they were finding success.

Where'd ya pull that one from?

it happens to everyone. Someone of Chinese descent who was born in America is considered chinese American. Hell they dont even get the American usually. People just call them chinese.

---

I do understand their point. They don't want to be known as "black and American". Because they don't want to be identified as solely a skin colour but hang out on better subs dude.

I can't either. It's nuts.

First it's "white people are too racist" and now "white people aren't racist enough?"

I love how an OP can post a strawman and people immediately circlejerk around it
