Yes, mostly that’s it. As my few* remaining black friends have also noticed, it’s not racism, it’s the culture. Most people are tired of the culture of crime, the theft in the stores, the drug use, the children born without fathers in the home, the rate of incarceration due to criminal activity, murder, shootings. It’s the welfare city syndrome – every democrat run city has a culture problem and an education problem to go with the destruction of the city in general.
Tune it out. That’s what most of us do. More murder in inner city Baltimore/Detroit/Chicago/New Orleans/DC/etc? No young person in Baltimore city schools can read or do basic math when they “graduate” high school? Local store gets robbed, again?
I don’t care. The democrats that run the city sure don’t give a damn. No one else does either.
Black Leftist Moves to Africa and Discovers That America Isn’t So Bad After All
Real shocker, ain’t it?
What do you think would happen if you eliminated welfare? Short term/long term…
*smaller circle of close friends as you get older, for me at least. Lose touch by time and distance, or they just get old and die…
I’ve mentioned before that I’ve seen slavery. I’ve seen nasty racial oppression. The “prejudice” and “oppression” that American blacks whine about is nothing.
In fact, one could even say that it is largely the consequence of poor decisions. Blacks “can’t get” good jobs? Have you tried getting skills that would make you attractive to employers?
Can’t say I’ve see actual slavery, just it’s kissin cousin, communism.
Many of, if not all, the people complaining about racism in America are commies. Fools.
I’ve seen more than one black person regret going back to the motherland. I’ve seen more than one African here that didn’t like the American black any more than anyone else, for all reasons the dude said in that tweet in the article.
They get there, and they find out, real fast, that:
It’s 100% black run and all their pathologies make the place dysfunctional as hell. There’s a reason the term ‘Africa wins again’ exists.
They are nobody there. Just another negro, only with the worst American traits, like entitlement, and no knowledge or care about the native culture. They can’t do the ‘when in rome’ thing.
I never knew any black folks that tried moving back to Africa (or any other s’hole), but I know a couple that (years ago) went to places that they were damn happy to return from. One was Africa but I don’t recall where, and the other was Haiti. Both went there as part of military training missions. Both stated in one way or another that the poor black folks in the US were rich compared with what they saw. I’ve seen it many times myself.
