THREAD:

I& #39;m doing a new video series called "NOT RACIST"

Where I take issues & phenomena the MSM says are RACIST https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😱" title="Vor Angst schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Vor Angst schreiendes Gesicht">

& use LOGIC, FACTS, & RECEIPTS to prove they& #39;re not.

Genuine racism absolutely exists & we should eradicate it.

But if EVERYTHING is racist, nothing is racist.
"NOT RACIST"
PART 1 - "BIRTHERISM"

If “Birtherism” is so RACIST & ppl only questioned Obama’s birthplace bc of the color of his skin...

Why was Jesse Jackson’s birthplace never questioned when he ran for pres? https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤔" title="Denkendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Denkendes Gesicht">

What about when the same accusations were put against white ppl?
"NOT RACIST"
PART 2 - "THE TRUMP/CENTRAL PARK FIVE NARRATIVE LIE"

@realDonaldTrump NEVER called for the execution of the #CP5https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤷🏾‍♂️" title="Achselzuckender Mann (durchschnittlich dunkler Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Achselzuckender Mann (durchschnittlich dunkler Hautton)">

Don& #39;t believe me? That& #39;s fine.
It& #39;s in the @nytimes.
I& #39;ve pulled up the receipts.

If Trump wanted Blk men in jail so bad, why did he let so many out?
NOT RACIST PT 3 - "TRUMP & THE GOOD PEOPLE ON BOTH SIDES LIE"

"We condemn in the strongest possible terms, this egregious display of hatred, bigotry & violence
It has no place in America."

"The neo-nazis & white nationalists should be condemned totally." https://twitter.com/realbenjiirby/status/1239334174022086657?s=21">https://twitter.com/realbenji...
"NOT RACIST"
PT 4 - "THE TRUMP DON& #39;T RENT TO BLACK PPL #FAKENEWS NARRATIVE"

If the DOJ had all this evidence they said they had of bias why wasn& #39;t it shown in court?

This "evidence" would have proven Trump guilty.

Instead after 2yrs Trumps settled w no admission of wrongdoing.
IN CONCLUSION:
I didn& #39;t do this "NOT RACIST" video series to make @realDonaldTrump look good.

It& #39;s actually much bigger than Trump.

Republican presidents are ALWAYS cast as racists by Democrats/media.

What this does is rob Black ppl of our power of political choice & leverage.
In a 2-party system, the only way for voters to keep parties in check is with the possibility of voting for the other party.

In the case of Black ppl, we don& #39;t have a choice bc the other party is "racist."

Leaving us taken for granted by Democrats and ignored by Republicans.
My thinking is that if I can show evidence of how the current Republican president isn& #39;t the racist monster the Democrats/media have lied and said he is...

It& #39;s can open up a mind or two, shifting the political landscape, thus giving us some leverage.
I very much resent the fact that every 2-4yrs Black ppls political conversation isn& #39;t about healthcare, school choice, taxes, oh no...

Our political conversation consistently revolves around the elementary concept of who is less/more racist than the other.

Really tired of this.
I don& #39;t want or expect for every Black person to become or consistently vote Republican.

That would give us the inverse of the current problem.

I& #39;d be good w a 25/75 or 35/65 split.

That& #39;d make us quite the hot commodity politically & fix most of the overall issues we have. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🇺🇸" title="Flagge der Vereinigten Staaten" aria-label="Emoji: Flagge der Vereinigten Staaten">
