What about Black liberals? They are the counterpoint to Black conservatives.


Malcolm X wasn’t writing in a time when Black Democrats were elected all around the country at all levels of government.


The whole point of OP's stupid thread is that Black conservatives don't exist unless they are pandering fools/tokens. This is talking point that seems entrenched in the black community and American politics. If there are white conservatives then there are also black conservatives. But liberals only talk about Blacks as Democrats (party ID) and never as liberals/conservaties because Black Americans and Black immigrants are generally more conservative. This is a nuanced subject that most people don't seem to understand.

Don't understand the bolded.

White dems who are liberal vote with Rs who are liberal? That's a lot of contradiction and confusion.

Malcolm X hated all white people and opposed integration. I don't blame him for being angry. I would be, too, if I had his history. But if he had his way, there would be a race war, and we'd still have segregation.

He's not exactly someone you would want to follow unless you want a race war.


Can you not understand that one can be liberal leaning and be a Republican? A Republican or a Democrat does not have to cosign all the party ideas in order to identify with a political party. I am conservative but generally vote for the Democratic party when the Republican candidate is too far right.

MLK didn't have a party affiliation when he was alive, so I think it's a pretty big stretch to say he'd have one in 2023.

It's safe to say that even without a party affiliation, he was conservative.

What's your evidence for this? What principles of conservative thought (something from the Sharon Statement or Russell Kirk's distillation of the basic conservative "canons" or something similar) do you think MLK's thought exemplifies? I wouldn't say there's zero points of overlap, but they tend to be places where certain beliefs cut across ideological lines. There's a conservative school of thought that's anti-militarist, for instance, even if its often crowded out by the hawks, but that's true on the left as well. MLK believed pretty strongly that capitalism was a problem, which is hard to square with most, but not all, conservative thought. That's certainly not anything the left would call him a bigot for believing. His support for a guaranteed minimum income wouldn't endear him to the right nor would his strong support for unions.

I'm not going to argue that he's totally a man of the left either, he certainly had disagreement with people on that side, but to call him a "no doubt" conservative seems pretty ignorant of his thought (which is much more interesting and challenging than most Democrat vs Republican political fights.

Blacks make up 0.9% of American conservative politics but to hear them yammering here on this thread and trying to claim every other prominent black in history as one of their own they'd sure like to try and make you believe otherwise.

In America there’s no such thing as Democrats and Republicans anymore. That’s antiquated. In America you have liberals and conservatives. This is what the American political structure boils down to among Whites. The only people who are still living in the past and thinks in terms of “I’m a Democrat” or “I’m a Republican” is the American Negro. He’s the one who runs around bragging about party affiliation and he’s the one who sticks to the Democrat or sticks to the Republican, but White people in America are divided into two groups, liberals and Republicans…or rather, liberals and conservatives. And when you find White people vote in the political picture, they’re not divided in terms of Democrats and Republicans, they’re divided consistently as conservatives and as liberal. The Democrats who are conservative vote with Republicans who are conservative. Democrats who are liberals vote with Republicans who are liberals. You find this in Washington, DC. Now the White liberals aren’t White people who are for independence, who are liberal, who are moral, who are ethical in their thinking, they are just a faction of White people who are jockeying for power the same as the White conservatives are a faction of White people who are jockeying for power. Now they are fighting each other for booty, for power, for prestige and the one who is the football in the game is the Negro. Twenty million Black people in this country are a political football, a political pawn an economic football, an economic pawn, a social football, a social pawn...” MALCOLM X


What about Black liberals? They are the counterpoint to Black conservatives.


Malcolm X wasn’t writing in a time when Black Democrats were elected all around the country at all levels of government.


The whole point of OP's stupid thread is that Black conservatives don't exist unless they are pandering fools/tokens. This is talking point that seems entrenched in the black community and American politics. If there are white conservatives then there are also black conservatives. But liberals only talk about Blacks as Democrats (party ID) and never as liberals/conservaties because Black Americans and Black immigrants are generally more conservative. This is a nuanced subject that most people don't seem to understand.



Malcom X would be a Republican today.

I'd throw MLK in there too.


MLK didn't have a party affiliation when he was alive, so I think it's a pretty big stretch to say he'd have one in 2023.


It's safe to say that even without a party affiliation, he was conservative.


How?

Yup.

Tim Scott.


Delusional. The only things Tim Scott and MLK have in common is skin color.



Isn't skin color the single most important thing?


LOL. For wanna-be slave owners, maybe.



All those woke "anti-racists" must be closer wanna-be slave owners then.


You know that makes no sense, right? What is your beef with anti-racists, anyway?



Hmm lemme think.

Oh yeah: They are the most racist human being in the world!
