Why Only Do Black Democrats Complain About Racism? Why Don’t Black Republicans Complain About Racism? Why Don’t Latinos, Asians, and Middle Eastern People Complain About Racism? Are Black Democrats The Only Victims Of Racism? Help Me Understand This
If White supremacy and systemic racism is such a problem, why doesn’t every other demographic complain about it? Not even LGBTQ complains about bigotry. Is it possible that only Black Democrats are victims of bigotry? I just don’t understand. Someone help me out.

That's all you need to know about these people. My only mission here is to provoke thought. Nothing else. I'm not a racist. I despise ALL Leftist, Communist, Democrats.

The part of Texas where I live is more Southwest than South. Blacks comprise a small % of the population here. Personally, I have not noticed blacks complaining about discrimination. Actually, I suspect the majority of Black men in my county voted for Trump. I know the majority of the Hispanics did, given there are more Hispanics than Whites, and Trump won by 57 percentage points. The only incident I can remember was a black friend in my small high school said he wouldn't date a white girl because people wouldn't accept it. There's no doubt he was accepted as he was one of the most popular people in the class. If memory serves me correctly he was student council Vice President. That was many years ago, and things have changed a lot since then.
Anyway, what I'm saying is what I've experienced probably isn't typical, compared to what I might have seen if I grew up and lived in Dallas or Houston. And is a completely different world from what I hear described on MSNBC and CNN.
That's why Blackman's description of his career was so fascinating to me. I formerly figured like you that race isn't a barrier to Blacks in America any longer, perhaps mostly based on my personal experiences. Blackman changed my mind. That was probably in one of your threads, so yes, you did provoke thought.
