Im sorry, but this is the delusional boomer mentality that continues to destroy the country.

You act as if the democrats came in and demanded black people get on welfare and have kids out of wedlock, then commit crimes and get addicted to drugs. The single parent rate for blacks prior to the 60s was already over 33% while it was single digit for whites. The criminality and racial animus they had also still existed. Your rose-tinted view of black people carefully selected for the Dick Clark show is not a realistic representation. You grew up in an America that was 90% white. Again, blacks have gotten further from slavery, further from Jim crow, further from civil rights and they get worse and worse. Are you seriously suggesting that it makes sense for people to be offered endless handouts, preferential education programs, preferential hiring programs, and constant promotion and STILL largely fail? Why is it the same way in every other country, then? Did Johnson make blacks fail in the UK? In Germany? In Brazil? In Haiti? In Africa itself? Why is it that it only seems to be blacks affected by Lyndon Johnson, when the welfare policies applied to whites as well? If it's poverty and family issues, why white kidsnraised by single moms significantly less likely to have the same problems black kids dodo? And Do you suggest blacks couldn't get jobs before Donald Trump?

I'm younger than you, but you're worldview is what is distorted. The constant excuses handed out to the black community is what is leading our country down the path it's on. No one forces them on welfare. No one forces them to commit crimes. All it takes to succeed as a black person in this country is to not go to jail , and to be mediocre in school. You will be given endless scholarships and job opportunities. Amd yet, 87% of them can't even do that.

I disagree. Even if we accept wholesale that it's 100% the fault of "democrats " and 0% fault of blacks, then why is it that these patterns persist in literally every country and area they are in? Brazil, Haiti, Argentina the UK, Belgium, Germany, Australia, even the small amount in Japan and China. Why is it the same in republican controlled areas as it is in democrat controlled areas? Why is it so disproportionate when all other races have also been subjects of "Democrat " policies for 60 years as well? There are rural Appalachian areas in west Virginia which are blue Nd have been blue for decades. Why are these poor whites with literal dirt floors bot acting like black people in Baltimore or Chicago or DC?

That all still buys the presuppositions that there was some magical change all of a sudden that set them on a bad trajectory when the trajectory was bad the entire time. I'm expected to believe that, with all the media lies about black people and "peaceful protests ", from the same places run by the same people with the same agenda, that there was something "different " about the "civil rights" marches of then versus now? That all these photos of mean mean white people are any more true than what they throw up on Facebook or the NYT now? That yeah, MLK was literally a plagiarizer, chronic adulterer, Communist that hated America, and was at a party where he was laughing about a woman being raped...but he was a great man that just wanted a fair shake? Or before that, that the separate facilities were purposefully made broken and dirty by mean whites, and not that they were expected to maintain their facilities and treat them well after they were built and ended up trashing them even though you see it for decades after in the hood and low income housing?

The race hustle has been going on since the end of the civil war, and we keep playing this game of "not all" where we pick out a few people while we suffer the literal thousands that are destroying the country. Look at the recent election; trump didn't lose because "democrats " he lost because the votes were counted by black municipal workers that hate white people and want things based on their race at the exclusion if others.

Until we stop treating them like toddlers without also treating them like toddlers, we're screwed.
