Wednesday I seen Tom Steyer on the Shannon show... I don't know anything about him, other than he is a billionaire. Well it didn't take long to figure out that he is just another lefty pandering with a bucket of lies. They asked him about Kanye West and he avoided the question and came out with this outrageous statement. Wow..... What does he consider morals? 71% of African American babies born out of wedlock. When I was growing up in the 70’s two of the most popular African Americans were Bill Cosby & OJ Simpson..... how are their morals. How about the south side of Chicago. How many innocent people are killed there each year? They are not being shot by white people. A 7 year old child just got shot trick or treating. Look at Ferguson Are these looters are leading from a moral standpoint?
This isn’t Stormfront, (although the conservative posters here sometime make it look like Stormfront).
This is - I can't even begin to list the logical fallacies in this statement. Consistently? As in all the time? As in "acting or done in the same way over time, especially so as to be fair or accurate"? I mean, was Al Sharpton leading from a moral standpoint on Tawana Brawley? Was Jesse Jackson leading from a moral standpoint when he called New York City "Hymietown"? Beyond that, are African-Americans always of the same kind of GroupThink on every debate such as they always agree and march in some kind of intellectual lockstep such as they all agree on everything like some kind of Black Borg Collective, because I've seen Blacks disagreeing with other Blacks on issues, so I fail to see how they can consistently be right when they don't always agree on anything. Heck, we've seen one rapper praising the slavemasters because they brought them over here for bling. I'm not even kidding. I think this guy has some serious issues.
Remind me again who captured and sold blacks into slavery. If that question is too tough, then remind me who the first owner of slaves was in this country.
If the question is have they been consistently on the right side of moral debates then I think that's actually accurate. Slavery Jim Crow civil rights etc, no doubt.. But I'm certainly not going to sit here and say they've led by example. I'd vote for the asians in that poll. asians take 2nd place too.
They go by many names. They’re called blacks, Africans, minorities, the eternally oppressed and the victims of supremacists. But no one ever, never gives credit to the people who captured and sold them along with the first person in America who put their talents to use.
Well... black Americans are pretty religious, pretty conservative in the social sense... but I don't think that's the argument this guy is trying to make. Is he trying to say that blacks disagree with slavery? Ok, yes, we all agree. Is he trying to say that police brutality is wrong? Also agree. Is he saying it's wrong to deny people the equality of opportunity? Yep, agree there too. That said, it's basically a statement of virtue signalling. Why? What's in it for him? Couldn't he just be a philanthropist and shut the f up? Whatever good deeds he's done are sullied by the provocation of virtue signaling. Do your good deeds in private without the expectation of reward.
I'm saving these for Thanksgibin'. See this is the 4rth necessary war of American indepencence after the inconclusive 3rd! When Eisenhower Stole all religion from the South, no one taught us in our history books! Slightly inhospitable. Might consider no one could even live here with all the indians, until the 1830's population boom from Andrew Jackson removing the indians. Then, nobody wanted to remain in the United States a long time with the Northerners attitudes. Then, the war hurt a third of the men down there, hurt everybody differently. Then they didn't even rejoin the Union equally, most of them until 1877. Then, people blamed the conditions of African Americans on us completely, most of them, when they already took away half of them by force. Then, they wanted to feel better about Their side, so they stole our religion again and tried to retro-blame everybody on segregation. View attachment 99274
Here is a good read on the subject. https://archive.org/stream/1890TheS...0+The+slave+trade+in+the+Congo+Basin_djvu.txt
Tom Steyer says African Americans are the moral center of this country. Substitute "are" with "were" and I would almost agree if we stay in the realm of religious...
He'd probably hate the notable black folks who're trying to promote morality within black American communities. Exibit A - Jesse Lee Peterson. Like him or not, if black men in America would follow his lead, things would change quickly in short order.
Small wonder. RIGHT BETTER PAY SERIOUS ATTENTION TO KANYE WEST CONVERSION: Something unexpected is going on here that just might be hugely significant for the future of American politics. “’In a crowd of 6,000 people from all walks of life, all ages, and all races, I personally witnessed over 1,000 individuals accept Jesus as their Lord & Savior!’” the pastor wrote, according to Elizabeth. “The beautiful essence of Jesus Is King is its non-bitterness. Despite private struggle and public pushback (‘Before the flood, they did the same to Noah’), West has realized a way to avoid and confound liberal media’s trap: the promotion of black bitterness as the core of African-American self-realization. “Jesus Is King is a spiritual work thanks to its deep feeling — pure expression brought to today’s calamitous social condition. The album rejects any recourse to political solutions. West’s personal movement, and the public convocation of his Sunday Services, is clearly against the politics of division. “America’s ’50s–‘60s civil-rights movement was based on righteousness — justice and virtue were understood as moral measures learned from the Church, not social license. That’s what gave the fire-hosed marchers and lunch-counter martyrs their courage. “While West has always defied the commonplace worldly sentiments of hip-hop culture (letting the preppie image oppose the street-thug image yet still flashing bling), Jesus Is King shows maturity. He has grasped on to the strength of faith — a belief in the moral certitude and divine promise that sustains and edifies one’s existence.” They are returning to their true strength: Gun Totin' Republican, trusting Jesus for strength while she helped set her People Free
Billionaire Donald J. Trump proudly runs and governs as Donald J. Trump Billionaire Tom Steyer runs as a whiny, pandering, groveling leftist worm that he is. What a contrast.
The moral center with the highest rates of crime and out of wedlock births For any demographic? Moral?
This is all more standard Democrat race baiting. What about asians or Latinos? Democrats are saying the black race is superior morally. Very racist and so are the people who buy into it.
