“Attention to all blacks who plan to vote for Trump,” the sign outside New Era Baptist Church reads, “you are an ignorant stupid negro.” The other side says, “Warning African Americans: A vote for Trump will put Blacks back to picking cotton.”
Three out of four.
Uh, the N- word in the title is misleading. Do people blot out the term when talking about UNCF, too?
United Nations Cabana Fund?
Going by what I guess is a new norm, it’s the United N---- College Fund. They used to do spots on television way back.
Yep. NAA*P censored their name too.
Not that I’m advocating for bringing terms back - I realize certain things fall out of fashion - but I do wonder how the titles, and the content, of MLK’s speeches are discussed. I noticed for a time that the term “black” was also seemingly teed up for a similar treatment, by the way and that did not happen.
I know right? Really loud virtue signal fail there.
Is a long o the same as a hard r?
Good it’s true. He is a literal racist. If you will vote for someone that hates people with your skin color you deserve what comes to you.

You support the KKK. This wouldn’t be your reaction if you didn’t
Nope, I don’t support racist organizations. Although your pal Joe Biden was good friends with one of them.

Ah… you have brain damage
Ah yes and the Republicans are checks notes the progressives?
He calls democrats, Demonrats. There is no conversation you could have with him that could ever help.
Ah, the democrats are showing their true colors once again as the party of the KKK.
Last time I checked the KKK endorses the Republican party these days. Same as literal Nazis. Isn’t that why Republicans allow Klan hoods and Nazi flags at their gatherings? Calling Democrats the party of the KKK isn’t the insult you think it is when Republicans are the ones openly embracing their rhetoric.
Republicans will call themselves a dictator and get mad when others calls themselves anti dictator. Bunch of snowflakes.
A liberal calling Republicans nazis? 😮
I didn’t call anybody a Nazi. I simply said that Republicans rather enjoy keeping the company of the Nazis and the KKK. But you know what they say about Nazi bars 🤷♂️
I thought the KKK endorsed Jill Stein lol.
That’s just David Duke who uses his nomination as a slander
Correct, horse battery staple
Also the father of the current Republican candidate was arrested at a Klan rally while the current Democratic candidate is literally black, making the statement even more asinine.
Additionally, her father is the first black scholar granted tenure at the Stanford Department of Economics.
“there was no switch. That’s why you see all of those Democrats waving the Confederate flag. That why all of the Confederate states are deep blue.”
Black people had already switched over to the Democrats in the 1940s well before the Civil Rights Act happened. The “Big Switch” in the 1960s was North vs South, not White vs Black.
The “Big Switch” in the 1960s was North vs South, not White vs Black.
No one is saying black people switched any thing. We are talking about how the Democrats were confederate supporters during the civil war and immediately after, and then there was a switch where the Republicans became the party of confederate supporters. Which is why it’s republicans now who are flying the racist and traitorous confederate flags now, and no longer the democrats.
They’re a tiny minority within the GOP, and I hate their actions as much as you do.
Lol Mississippi is still flying the Confederate flag at their capitol. “Just a tiny minority!” Where have you been the past 2 decades, defending flying the Confederate flag as some kind of “southern pride” thing? And weren’t you just arguing that the Democrats are the party of the KKK? Which, of course, is not true, but it didn’t seem you care much about something being a “tiny minority” then.
Hmmm

It’s baseless science that was just to further subjugate an oppressed people by giving their mistreatment a pseudoscientific justification.
Yeah yeah, all those years’ study is nothing important but your opinion.
Is that why you keep telling everyone the earth is the center of the universe? Can’t forget all those years of study!
Next he’s going to day the Earth is flat because people are still studying it.
You can say black, but you apparently can’t say black in latin. Maybe the ones who downvoted you are just ignorant.
If you’re writing Latin then have at it. If you’re not writing Latin then negro in the common vernacular is a derogatory term.

Oh FFS, “negro” isn’t the “N” word, and this is within the black community so don’t judge. I’m glad they’re speaking plain truth in a way that might have genuine impact.

I don’t care for the vitriol but the sentiment is exactly how I feel.
Any person who is not a white male millionaire that votes for trump I’d am idiot, but it’s particular true of black people and hispanics.
Here’s the thing, white male millionaires always end up the deadest during autocracies. They think they will be able to keep and grow their power and the opposite is true.
Having money doesn’t keep you from being a dumbass.
I’m agree with you on this particular exact situation.
I’d am aren’t a idiot 😠
Talking politics in church tho? I mean I also agree with the sentiment but what happened to being citizens of the kingdom that is not of this earth? I understand lots of religious leaders are advocating for the other side, but it seems wrong to me either way.
I hear you - I just think we’re that far gone. It’s that bad. Pull out all the stops.
😅 holy shit, this church is based
Title feels like clickbait. Would be more convinced it was deliberate clickbait if the thumbnail didn’t directly show the sign saying “negro” and not the actual slur.
But that just makes the choice of title more confusing.
I mean, I sort of agree but it’s not like they could put “Negro” in the title and they did properly put the correct number of dashes for the missing letters.
They could if they meant negro, which means black in Spanish, not n----, the archaic term for black people. See? Censored.
Just for clarification, I fully agree with the censorship. I just agree that at first glance it looks like they used the OTHER N word, which is what the first was saying when he mentioned “clickbait”.

For the same reason they can’t/shouldn’t put any other racist slurs in the title. Duh.

FFS dude, even a casual look at a dictionary would tell you that it is, in fact, a slur.
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/Negro
Even the most non-offensive definitions of “Negro” incorrectly describe it as a different race, as if black people were not human. So even in the BEST POSSIBLE CONTEXT you’re still using it as a racial slur.
I can also say with 100% certainty that you are not black. Only non-black racists try to claim that Negro is not a racial slur.
Depends on the publication’s editorial guidelines with respect to what words are censored and how. Probably not the author’s choice.

I would have considered your point, but it’s pretty clear you are absolutely unreasonable and presumptuous. Of course you think I’m prejudiced, because it’s a projection of who you are.
Did you just pull a “No I’m not, you are!”
Dude, wow… just, wow.
Dont lie. You would never have considered my point. Because you’re more concerned about being “right” than actually changing your viewpoint.
Ive presented straight up facts. Also note that you didn’t even refute my argument. You are not a black person. Ask yourself how I could know this. Then try to understand how little of your own thoughts are actually yours.
Maybe if you do that you’ll learn to deprogram yourself. But hey, I get it. It’s easier to blame other people for your shortcomings.
I won’t respond any more to any further arguments on your part.
Oh? You use that term all the time then? How often do you get punched in the mouth? Let’s go with daily average.
You use that term all the time then?
Yes, that’s clearly what I said. You’re very smart.
So you agree that it’s an insulting and disparaging word? How is that not a slur?
