HOUSTON, WE HAVE A PROBLEM!
The fact that we are the most likely to die by homicide (perpetrated by other blacks) should be a more urgent issue for US BLACK PEOPLE then to hyperventilate that Charlie Kirk, the messenger, is not focusing on the number of whites committing shooting. The whites are not dying by homicide like we do!
But as usual, we prefer to focus on the wrong things. As a black person, whenever irl I have tried to talk about the issue of crime with other blacks, I have been called self-hating, and every foul name but a child of God.
It is always easier to point the finger at others for our woes, instead of doing self-examination and see what one can do to fix an issue, but that would require work, self-work, which apparently is too much, so let's go for the easier option, pointing fingers at others and blaming them for our own depravity!
You are very fixated on just ONE part of the equation Belage. So it does indeed come across very self-hating because of it. I cannot lie. Like you want a scooby snack and a pat on the head from White Conservatives for "holding your people accountable" and whatnot. 🤷🏾♀️ When they won't even hold their own accountable for ALL of these horrid mass shootings that keep taking place! But of course, you take NO issue with that. And I don't do hypocrisy.
I personally take issue with BOTH.
I'm against the types of Black Men who murder each other, abuse Black Women and abandon their children. 💯 Who blame *all* of their troubles and twisted actions on racism.
I'm against the types of White Men who mass shoot up schools, churches, rallies, etc and kill Public Figures. The ones who eat their human victims. Or molest children. 💯 And have the Klan Mentality of their wicked ancestors.
I'm against millions of illegals flooding our country. But I am *not* against Latinos at large. 💯 Same for any other group.
I voted for Obama.
I voted for Trump.
I have NO loyalty to either one of these corrupt a$$ political parties.
I've dated White Republicans. Some even wanted to marry me! 🩷 We had healthy, candid discussions about Race. Neither of us had an Us VS Them Mentality. We kept it real about where BOTH sides were going wrong. Like mature adults are supposed to damn do. 💅🏾
I've dated the rainbow! And dated Black Men as well. 👍 And I've enjoyed both. I have a very diverse circle of friends and associates. Therefore, I've been able to actually *experience* a variety of different people, instead of going solely by what I saw on TV or by what some other sheltered person told me who never truly mingles with the group that they are bashing. 🤷🏾♀️ Is what it is.
FYI - there are people that I absolutely cannot stand in EVERY race. Including my own.
So... please STOP regurgitating the same singular talking point to me like some broken AI Robot at a backwoods MAGA rally, Belage. 🛑
"Black Crime" and Charlie's Behavior are two completely separate issues. The former does not excuse the latter.
Charlie Kirk said a number of truly racist things that were highly uncalled for. Plain and simple. 🙄 He was spreading a message of hate. Not one of love and unity and holding EACH OTHER acccountable across the board. Again - like a real Christian would have.
His far-right supporters are needlessly "pointing the finger" at Black People for their woes. When we don't have ANYTHING to do with that man being shot. And in most cases, we don't even interact with or live around these kinds of people! 🤣 Talk about delusional obsession. They aren't doing ANY self-reflection either. So, miss me with your odd double standards.
If you sincerely co-sign this mess, we are NOT of the same ilk. ✨️ And have nothing in common Belage. Regardless of us sharing the same skin tone. And that's just fine with me.
