He elaborated on what he said several times and said he was talking about mental slavery. Even on the show, he clearly was talking about it that sense. This is all an attempt to ignore what his points were. This kind of stuff always happens to blacks who admit they are right-leaning or that they don't agree with democrats/progressives. Just keep on condemning him for thinking differently and pushing people to the right. Do you goofy butts not realize how high trump is in the polls and that he's gaining more support in the black community more than ever. |
You are conflating politics with actual history and its not a good look for you.
The reality, the actual reality, is that what Kanye said is wholly irrelevant because the individuals where ACTUALLY physically enslaved. This has nothing to do with politics. The Slave Trade was real. It happened. It wasn't a mental trip by black people you anus lol.
A perception of reality formed through practices of slaveholders upon the enslaved is nothing to sneeze at. Stop trying to make the slaves the guilty party. This is what people are saying about Kayne's comments. I know this because I'm black and hey guess what: I get to talk candidly to regular black people all the time.
Also, the idea that we can't think for ourselves without political influence is offensive. Your opinion of us is stupidly low. We can think just like you can.
Black people are people too. We have an entire multitude of beliefs, practices and ideas. Kanye is not or 'God' or something nor are democrats or Trump or my ideas or yours. Some of us don't even believe in God. All I am really saying is that Kayne is free to say whatever he wants to say and so is everyone else. I am pretty sure most can make a very compelling objective argument against his point though.
