On Politicians and Pandering to Blacks

I swear, these Democrats must think we are super stupid or something. Why do politicians try to shuck and jive, switch up their dialect, parade around with popular music artists, be seen consuming what they consider as Black food, and try and keep up with our dances? I never see them eating raisins in their potato salad, attending White cookouts, rocking out to some heavy metal, or parading around with Taylor Swift, or any popular White artist for that matter. They always keep their same speaking tone when talking to Whites and they don't feel the need to attempt to put on a blacccent or code switch. And then attempt to critique the level of our Blackness in hopes we vote for them. They reserve that foolishness just for us. I really hope this year will be different. 

Kamala Harris, the current Vice President of the United States has pulled out all the stops to get her presidential nomination. She has shucked and jive so much, it's looking disgusting. She doesn't have any policies on her site and she was the border czar while Biden was in office, and we know how that turned out. All we know about her is that she cast away her Indian heritage when it suit her, and now she is hamming up the Black card she thinks she has just because she went to an HBCU. Newsflash. White kids go to HBCUs also. They can be found stepping with the fraternities and in the drumlines on YouTube. Does that make them Black? I don't think so. At the end of the day, they will go to their White worlds and do their thing. They just don't turn black because of the school they went to or the activities they partook in while at said school.

And yet, people are saying she is Black just for that. 

To them, I say. GTGOHWTBS and pay attention. She is struggling to get your vote and that's it. Just like every Democrat, she will throw us to the side once she is done with us. We have become the jumpoff or the sneaky link of the Democratic Party. They court us, and then throw us away. We are their side pieces. That's it. We even let Joe Biden tell us if we don't vote for him, then we aren't Black. Since when does an old White man get to define how Black we are? Go ahead, Ill wait. I'll be damned if I let an other tell me or question my Blackness, much less another Black person do it. My Blackness isn't up for sale, nor is it to be questioned by anyone. And if someone let's someone else do that to them, then they just got punked. I'm tired of us getting punked by others. Our main music states we are so hard and brave and strong. But when it's time to show it, we are missing in action. It's like we are all talk and no action. I strongly believe the democrats need to be punished for their treatment of us for all of these generations. Not one president has attempted to address Black issues. When given the question, they all shirked it off just like Obama did when he said he was not just the Black president, but he is everybody's president. And Kamala laughed at the interviewer when she was asked the question. At the very least, Trump met with Ice Cube and tried listening to him, but Negroes disparaged Cube for coming to Trump. Biden said, "Wait till after the election." , which translates to, "Vote for me first, then Ill dodge you." I really hope this time is different. I hope Kamala doesn't win. Now hold on, that doesn't mean I'm a Trump supporter. Not at all. But there is one thing I can say about Trump is that he speaks to us the same way he talks to his White constituents. He doesn't try to use our vernacular, nor does he put a twang in his speech, like Kamala did when she was pandering, (I mean, speaking) to Black people.

Someone told me to use my Black card and vote for her. They said they are for prosecutor against felon. But they can't tell me her policies. I don't want to see her win because of her blatant disrespect of us. I don't know if I want Trump to win either. All I know is that I will research other candidates from different parties and see which one suits me best. I'm doing that because this 2 party system is a joke. And we all know it. We are stuck in the lesser of 2 evils argument yet again. Let's vote with some sensibility, instead of voting for identity politics. And just so you know. I didn't vote for Joe or Trump 
when the time came to do so. I chose someone else.

I mean, how many ways do we need to tell each other that all skinfolk ain't kinfolk. Kamala is playing in our faces and people eat it up still. We throw that skinfolk phrase around and when it's time to recognize it, somehow we fail when it comes to powerful or successful people, especially politicians. Look at every Democrat ran city in the country. They have driven the cities into the ground. Black people are still getting killed in these cities by the police, and the cities are ran by Black politicians. Homelessness runs rapid and the city gets money to combat it, but that money disappears. How much more do we have to take from these politicians? How many ways we have to remind each other that all skinfolk aint kinfolk? How many instances do we need in order to see that? We can say it all day for family members and friends, but we let these politicians sit their asses in these chairs and do nothing. That's on a state and local basis. I know one thing, when I vote for my local election, some heads will roll. I don't live in a swing state, so my vote may not count towards the presidential election, but at least I will have the dignity to say that I didn't vote for a politician who thinks we are dumb and will give somebody a Black pass because they can do basic remotely Black shit that anybody can do, like be seen seasoning their food or using hot sauce, or trying to prepare collard greens. 

I will make my vote count. I'm not just voting for the sticker. 



That is all
