Ok, I get how black people typically won't listen to other people's opinions because they aren't black. Thats basically what every race does.

But why is it that when a black person who has views that are slightly conservative, they get propped up by almost everyone on the right.

The way I see it the right uses blacks just like the left.

I know what you mean, its ridiculous how they'll worship any gay or black person who comes out as conservative. a bit ridiculous. but, it doesn't hurt to point out in passing, "hey, thanks for speaking up, not easy to go against the grain", like I say, positive affirmation works. and then other people see it, and think, "wow, maybe I'm an ass"

That I have no issue with. But I find once you disagree about a black figure they happen to idolize it devolves to "you're a racist" essentially.

For example I don't think Candice Owens will make a good political leader. But once I say that first thing retards on here jump to is I'm a racist white dude. When in fact I'm hispanic.

there are definitely large numbers of people who still can't quite think for themselves on both sides.

Right now I’m sure a lot of it is optics. We’ve been painted as racists for so long we’re being a bit overly friendly to show that we’re actually decent people.

If you’ve ever seen any of Karlyn Borysenko’s stuff, when she went to her first Trump rally, as a leftist, she was really kinda scared of what we would be like, and was amazed to find out we’re actually way nicer than the left.

Being the open and welcoming side has its advantages when the other side is ejecting people like ballast in a storm.
