How was Obama oppressed? It wasn't like they stole the election away from him.

Black isn’t a class. It’s a race. Class is wealth based. And if I can’t eat and a black man can’t eat it’s the same ****ing problem.

I can’t believe I have to type that. I guess it’s pretty easy to be nonchalant about being turned away for medical care based on skin tone when you can call your mommy.

Btw, do you still think I was misreading this bull**** Marie.

I ****ing know. That’s exactly what I was saying.

I just pointed out that I’m especially glad one exists in my predominantly black community because I too benefited from its existence. ****ing place may have saved my life. Ffs. Turn it into some kind of goddamn white power statement. ****ing piece of **** read.

He didn't say Obama. He said black. I can understand if Christian fundamentalists don't know the difference but one black guy in power doesn't equal all black people.

Railing against the unrealistic framing of a real event is a pretty dumb thing for fox to waste their time on.

Also **** the specifics of elphenor'rs nonexistent event.

I started this by speaking out against Fox News because they were framing it like it’s attempt to completely exclude white people and it 100% is not.

Then I get this kick back like so what if it was only for blacks people which offended me because I received substandard mental health until this clinic was built. So yeah I took it personally. And if they roll out the vaccine earlier there I’m signing the **** up because I too am a member of this community and have lived here for years and I’ve had a rough go of it financially for quite a while.

Most of the staff including my psychiatrist is black - I only say that because they’ve been very kind to me and I appreciate it very much.

Idk, this conversation has really pissed me off. I’ll just drop it. It’s absurd hypotheticals like you said. I was basically saying Fox News was bending what was said to stir up white grievances. Like they’re always doing.

black people were disproportionately hurt by the virus
Blacks are incarcerated unfairly and it has run rampant through jails and prisons.

But otherwise it disproportionately hurts the poor who are forced into exposure. Unless you think the virus is racist.

Karl Marx would turn in his grave over elph's words.

Mostly because he was a secret racist.
