Does the democrat party care about black teens?

[joeldalton]

Seems to me that the best way to help black teens become successful in their life is to educate them so they can get decent job. Why then, would a democrat mayor actively discriminate against them?

40% of black students in DC are not vaccinated against Covid-19. They will not be able to attend classes unless they get vaccinated after 20 days. There is no virtual learning option.

Where are the body autonomy folks? Where’s Joe Biden, hero to the black people? Where’s Kamala Harris? Doesn’t she care about black students?

And let’s not even start about the immorality of mandating a vaccine that doesn’t stop the spread of covid-19.

There was an interesting episode on the Libertarian podcast where a black man was interviewed about this sort of thing. It was not the main topic but what he mentioned does relate to this. He said that black people should be offended when Democrats come up with ways to brainwash black people into thinking that democrats for them. Democrats want black people to go to Black only colleges to feel "Safe", they give black people special rights such as discriminatory support at work and education, black only businesses, black only holidays, and more. What is the real message to black people behind this? They are essentially saying that black people cannot succeed without help from these democrats. They are saying black people cannot learn if they learn with white people, they cannot pass standard exams such as the SAT, they cannot find a job without special treatment, and so on. I found that very interesting.

I don't know, but I can tell you that in my country, the UK, the worst outcomes of all teen groups the past 30 years have been for white working-class boys.

All we ever hear about is girls this, girls that, homosexuals this, homosexuals that, Muslims this, Muslims that, Jews this, Jews that, trans-phobia this, trans-phobia that.

The white working class male built the industrial revolution, kept the lights on until they shut the mines down, built all the ships for the navy and merchant shipping, built all the houses for folks to live in.

And after centuries of all that service, now they are thrown on the scrap heap by sexist, racist religious bigots on the make and on the take.

It's a global disgrace what's happened in my country.

[joeldalton]

That’s common in western countries where the globalists have taken over.

[Anonymous]

They don’t entirely care but the Democratic Party still offers minorities far more in the areas of civil rights, voting rights and education than the GOP ever has over the past half century. They aren’t perfect but they’re the best option by a long shot.

[joeldalton]

You literally have 40% of black teenagers about to be kicked out of school. Something tells me your opinion isn’t grounded in the real world.

[Opinion Owner]

When the other side doesn’t support your right to basic equality in the form of civil rights, engages in voter suppression in areas where minority populations live and openly stirs racism with their rhetoric, it’s hard to get too upset about something as trivial as a vaccine mandate. Your comments are ridiculous and spoken out of obvious ignorance.

[joeldalton]

Where's the proof of voter suppression? I'll wait.

[Opinion Owner]

The evidence is easily observable but people like you choose to either look the other way or you actively support it. Which one applies to you? Willfully ignorant or openly racist?

[joeldalton]

oh, the ole "minorities are too stupid to get ID" trope. That's a good one. Gotta love the bigotry of low expectations.

Who knew "waiting in line" was opppression, lol.

[Opinion Owner]

That’s not only way the vote is suppressed so you didn’t read the article but you already know these things. You’re just ok with them. However, you’re too much of a coward to admit it openly so you distract and dissemble. It’s a common tactic of the racist. You’re no mystery to me.

[Opinion Owner]

…. and yes, purposely limiting the number of polling stations in minority areas is meant to create long waits and discourage voting. The same thing with limits to mail in voting, which equalized things in 2020. We can’t have that again can we?

[joeldalton]

Right. A bunch of "studies" that don't amount to actual voter repression. Because I don't swallow propaganda and bullshit I'm a "coward" in your smooth brain. You're hilarious if you weren't so stupid.

[joeldalton]

Yes we can not have fraudulent mail-in voting agan.

[Opinion Owner]

Yes you are a coward and a racist. Studies provide evidence that demonstrates the effects of the suppression tactics. It’s not wild propaganda. You’re dissembling again. It’s a cowards tool.

[joeldalton]

The burden is not on me to prove anything. You're making the bold claims you need significant evidence to back it up. An article that quotes its own studies isn't evidence.

Oh, and PS, calling me a racist has no effect on me. So find another lefty debate tactic.

[Opinion Owner]

There is no evidence of any widespread mail in voting fraud. Election audits in all 50 states didn’t turn up evidence of significant fraud. It’s a false narrative to mask the true motive……mail in ballots make voting easier in urban/minority areas. It allowed people to avoid hours long wait times. That’s the real threat isn’t it?

[joeldalton]

I fail to see how waiting in line is an insurmountable burden. You've yet to prove it is.

[Opinion Owner]

If you like, I can post links to numerous studies on voter suppression but you really don’t want to learn anything. You’re just dissembling so you don’t have to admit your true motives. You won’t accept any evidence I provide. I have more respect for the Klan. At least they have the balls to admit what they truly are.

[joeldalton]

look, here's people lining up for sneakers. Doesn't seem oppressive

[Opinion Owner]

It’s not insurmountable but it’s a suppression tactic and it does have the practical effect of lowering turnout. With work schedules and child care and life responsibilities, some folks don’t have hours to stand in line just to vote. It’s not fair and it’s not equal access. The fact that you’re defending it reveals your true motives.

[joeldalton]

Can you provide detailed reasons other than "because racism" these polling places closed? Didn't think so.

[Opinion Owner]

Now you’re just trolling….. another dissembling tactic. You know what you are and I know what you are and I’m going to leave it at that.

[joeldalton]

Interesting. You claim to be so knowledgable about racist voter suppression. But when someone asks you to prove that the polling places were closed due to racism you deflect. Interesting. A person who's able to make inferences would probably come to the conclusion that you're just shouting "racist" and hoping that will shut down the discussion. One would probably come to the conclusion that you don't have any evidence. Apparently, shouting "racist" at people has worked before, which is why it's your first debate strategy.

[Anonymous]

Yes they do care, but only about how they can use said black teens to scare woke points. The second those black teens says something the democraps don't like and they can't shut up the black teens they will be against them and try ruining their lives.

[Sixgunsound]

This is just one of many examples in a growing body of evidence that Democrats are just as racist against blacks in the 21st century as the were in the 19th and 20th. Scratch a white liberal and find a fascist, right?

[mr4435669]

That's obvious, because most blacks are Democrats, plus white Democrats woman in their thirties often harass young black men for sex.

[joeldalton]

DC mayor is black, too.

[mr4435669]

When I was 15 years old I went to Sacramento and was sexually harassed by two white women in their 35s.

[slatyb]

Why aren’t they vaccinated? Can they get vaccinated? It should be free to them.

[joeldalton]

Doesn’t matter why.

[slatyb]

Of course it does. There have been vaccine mandates for public school attendance for decades.

[joeldalton]

The mandate is for the covid-19 shot. These were children previously in school. There's zero reason to mandate a covid-19 vaccine.

[dragoblack]

The 2 party system doesn't care about anyone who doesn't donate large amounts of to them and meet their ideals & mentality. And last i checked teens dont make much of any money, especially in a working class family

[SmokinAces2000]

No and republicans definitely don’t, politicians care about themselves

[joeldalton]

Lmao. I don’t see republicans kicking black kids out of school.

[SmokinAces2000]

Is it about race? No

[joeldalton]

Neither are voter ID laws, but that doesn’t stop you dipshits from claiming it’s racist.

[SmokinAces2000]

I never said voter ID laws were racist so racist so who is “you dipshits”

[joeldalton]

You leftists.

[SmokinAces2000]

Not a leftist

[OddBeMe]

I would argue no one does. Dems at least try during elections.

[joeldalton]

Ah, so pandering is “trying”. Got it.

[OddBeMe]

Better than just calling them criminals.

[joeldalton]

You mean like drafting a crime bill that led to mass incarceration of black people? Or do you mean letting black people in your schools would create a ‘racial jungle’? Or do you mean a covid-19 shot mandate that would keep 40% of black teens out of school?

[OddBeMe]

You think repubs didn't sign the crime bill?
Not sure where racial jungle came from. Nor do i really care.
And you’ll never convince me to not follow scientific evidence.

[joeldalton]

Lol, which scientific evidence is that? That if you get the covid shots you won’t get covid? That scientific evidence?

[OddBeMe]

You get covid shots and you won't die. Not sure how many times we’ve had this discussion algeron.

[joeldalton]

Children die at a lower rate with no shots. It’s only the old, fatasses like yourself that see any benefit from these shots.

[OddBeMe]

can't possibly know that since covid shots for children just came out recently doofus.

[joeldalton]

We know their rate of death prior to the shots, you stupid fuck.

[OddBeMe]

Please link.

[joeldalton]

You look it up, lol. You claim to be so good at googling.

[OddBeMe]

Yawn.

You right wingers either make shit up think “feel facts” are real.

[joeldalton]

Lol, that’s a weird way to write “I know the facts but I’m going to pretend they don’t exist”

[OddBeMe]

Thats what you guys do constantly. Just ignore the facts while people die.

[joeldalton]

Lmao. The facts are there.. you’re telling me you’re too stupid to look them up. Even on the CDC’s website.

[Shamalien]

Yeah we like black people, but not those ones! Only the ones that further our political agenda!!!

[MrTaboo]

No, what exactly have they done?

[joeldalton]

It’s linked in the question.

[Cubus]

Only their votes

[Anonymous]

More than MAGA cult.

[Agagagagaga]

Yes. The “cult” of 74 million voters. 🙄

[joeldalton]

Is the “maga” cult about to kick 40% of them out of school?
