The most surprising thing is that none of the activists lifted a finger to come to Mr. Elder's defense. You know, the usual suspects. Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and BLM among all the others who get offended if a White man simply even thinks of sneezing on a Black man. We're hear nothing but crickets from any of them. Why? Because he's on the wrong side of the aisle? We all should stand up and call bullshit on this silence.
There's also the case of Senator Tim Scott. Remember his rebuttal to President Biden's speech that one time? People of all colors on the Left came came out in droves to call him ever racial slur they could think of. Why were none of these racists called out? Because Senator Scott had the nerve to be a Black Republican.
It seems like everyone in this country, in particular White Democrats have an issue with Black Republicans. Coon. Sellout. Uncle Tom. Buck dancer. Black Republicans are called these names and many other for reasons that no one can really explain. That should make you ask yourself a question you shouldn't have to ask yourself in this day and age; What makes the idea of Black Republicans so offensive?
One would think that in a free country like America, a black person (particularly a black man) could be in or vote for any political party they want. So why is it the blacks are the only people who face this backwards restriction? What is it about the Republican party that people don't want blacks to know?
And why is this vitriol so strong from White Democrats? You know, those people who claim that blacks are equal to everyone else? Why do they care if the OCCASSIONAL black person goes the other way? How do a couple of black people going to the Right hurt them? You'll get an answer, though this writer doubts it'll be an intelligent one.
Another question that nobody asks is why Black Republicans are Republicans in the first place. Sure, they may very well be sellouts, but that doesn't really answer the question. This seems to indicate a great amount of ignorance from the dissenters of such people. What they're saying by immediately resorting to insults and slurs is that they are the ones who are small-minded. They are to ones who are stuck in the past because they are saying what old, white racist use to always say; blacks don't have the ability to choose. To these people, black are still only three-five of a human. They believe the blacks must be pushed in the direction they need to go because they aren't smart. And when a black person dares to do something they don't want or expect, they must be put back in their place. Yet somehow, this doesn't classify as White Rage.
This mindset is so prevalent among Democrats, that we all were okay when President (then candidate) Joe Biden went in front of everyone on a popular black podcast and said, "If you don't vote for me, then you ain't black." Those are by far thing most racist words this writer has heard a president or candidate say with his own two ears. Essentially he was saying, you need to vote a way I tell you because you blacks belong to us Democrats. Don't ask me any questions, just do it because that's the box you belong in. And yet, nobody said anything about that.
Now this writer is no fool. He knows about the racist crap Republicans have done and said. This writer is simply asking why we won't call out racism from the Democrats, even when it's in plain sight. And why is being a Republican who happens to be black so taboo? Why won't black activists circle the wagons and stand up for ALL black candidates, even if you don't agree with them political. If racism is wrong is wrong, it's all wrong. Either call it all out or just shut the hell up.
Until next time...
