Jul 2015

aren't ever going to be able to wade out of it.

"And apparently there are alot here that seem to GENUINELY believe that black people are too stupid to think for ourselves, that we are being manipulated."

Blast from the past example of that on May 21, 2015.. two days before your OP, 23..

"87% of African Americans view Hillary Clinton favorably"

2. well
when Bernie sanders was young man he supported civil rights.

Civil Liberties means more than Sanders than it ever will be for Obama or Hillary.

191. Another fine example of Americans voting...
...against their best interests

Anything to try and make Bernie look good.. Not even realizing it has the Opposite effect.

As a supporter of Sanders I'd like to believe that explains it el_bryanto Jul 2015 #1
BLM is being played by The National Review Crowd leveymg Jul 2015 #2
Yes but implicit in that argument is that BLM is too dumb to figure things out on their own. el_bryanto Jul 2015 #3
A lot of people have been sucked in by this meme. It's The Blob of the '16 Campaign. leveymg Jul 2015 #4
Your interlocutor's raison d'etre seems to be robbing one group of agency. DemocratSinceBirth Jul 2015 #26
I think you know exactly what you've been doing in pushing this meme for the past 2 months. delrem Jul 2015 #40

Read the OP. Read DU. delrem Jul 2015 #42
Folks are conflating two separate issues... DemocratSinceBirth Jul 2015 #43
YOU conflate the issues. delrem Jul 2015 #44
What is the topic of this thread? DemocratSinceBirth Jul 2015 #47
Out of fairness, you have the last word in this conversation. delrem Jul 2015 #49
Peace and best wishes./nt DemocratSinceBirth Jul 2015 #51
It's not a meme that Bernie Sanders is not getting the support of minority communities mythology Jul 2015 #110
I'm glad I'm not the only one who sees this passiveporcupine Jul 2015 #93
They will also need to figure out that they will be -- or have been -- infiltrated by the police villager Jul 2015 #57
They are being suckered and the "Hill People" are piling on and loving brewens Jul 2015 #28
Thanks for identifying Cooke as well. mmonk Jul 2015 #5
I think the swiftboating is coming from many sources. Vattel Jul 2015 #6
Guittierez followed York and Cooke. I agree, this meme got picked up by others leveymg Jul 2015 #7
Okay, I see your point. Vattel Jul 2015 #8
Nice post. mmonk Jul 2015 #10
That which doesn't break you, makes you stronger. nc4bo Jul 2015 #9
I hope you are right. Vattel Jul 2015 #11

Thanks again! Question: leveymg Jul 2015 #13
We can probably thank Citizens United for that. arcane1 Jul 2015 #14
I have to admit, not from such a wide spectrum. mmonk Jul 2015 #15
Ouch, that is pretty sleezy. blackspade Jul 2015 #16
Exactly the point. Before folks smear another Dem, be aware the meme originated in the GOP. leveymg Jul 2015 #17
This has been up for 6 hours or so and the usual people on DU pushing this meme are absent hootinholler Jul 2015 #18
My pleasure, kind sir. leveymg Jul 2015 #21
They're probably absent because for the last couple sufrommich Jul 2015 #23
Yep. They don't really get it at all. nt stevenleser Jul 2015 #111
Back in March of 2015 ... something else happened ... do you know what it was? JoePhilly Jul 2015 #19
Reading comprehension is important leveymg Jul 2015 #20
BLM clearly started to target Democrats before the date you pick. JoePhilly Jul 2015 #25
Here is an interesting OP for you to read and comprehend ... JoePhilly Jul 2015 #29
We can walk the cat back even further, here's something related from Aug. 17, 2014 leveymg Jul 2015 #104
Except there is no direct connection from this Bernie to DU or BLM. JoePhilly Jul 2015 #106
I don't think we're talking about the same thing. leveymg Jul 2015 #107
I simply do not see Bernie being smeared. JoePhilly Jul 2015 #108
And Obama handled it spectacularly, as usual - no deer in the headlights look. George II Jul 2015 #54
Maybe, but that's not my point ... JoePhilly Jul 2015 #100
Who does the meme most benefit. n/t Skwmom Jul 2015 #22
Easy to tell here: look who's doing the gloating, while the rest of us are just appalled. leveymg Jul 2015 #24
I can tell you who your post and this argument harms the most BainsBane Jul 2015 #53

He put it on Kos too I think. Lol! bravenak Jul 2015 #31
I don't want to get a hide but it is repugnant to suggest black folks can't do things on their own. DemocratSinceBirth Jul 2015 #32
Well Soros and my avatar and Lee Atwater are planning a coup to install Hillary as Queen. Srsly. bravenak Jul 2015 #33
The sad thing is the young woman who heads BLM said why she did what she did. DemocratSinceBirth Jul 2015 #34
Straight up selfish. That's why. I'll be a Targaryan soon and burn them for us. Get me a dragon. bravenak Jul 2015 #35

'God have mercy on us' does not apply to those who allow this to go on. n/t freshwest Jul 2015 #118
She is not a meme DemocratSinceBirth Jul 2015 #71
No one said, or implied, that she was. You are unethically twisting the OP to suit Zorra Jul 2015 #72
I don't need to be lectured by you. DemocratSinceBirth Jul 2015 #73

Right-wing media and the origins of the Bernie "doesn't care about minorities" meme. DemocratSinceBirth Jul 2015 #84
In every post, you reinforce the Bernie "doesn't care about minorities" meme delrem Jul 2015 #88
I said no such thing. DemocratSinceBirth Jul 2015 #92
Every single post of yours contradicts your assertion. delrem Jul 2015 #95
It's not that Bernie doesn't care... MightyMax Jul 2015 #89
You shouldn't have been blocked for that true statement. n/t delrem Jul 2015 #90
