I am aware. Just less aware of yours.
The reason for my question is not one of silence it’s because your statements are opinionated not facts.
I’m Black, I wouldn’t say I fully identify with the left or right politically, but I was raised with some conservative values because most of the rural black community I’m from holds those values. Where I from we seek to conserve values and traditions important to us and restore institutions we would like preserved. Whether that’s religious institutions or better education for community.
It’s just ridiculous to me that you would say identifying as conservative means you are not Black. Much of black people of southern United States have conservative values and identify with them, however voting for conservative officials doesn’t make one conservative. You can vote for someone who is in a left political party and still be conservative. Being Black is as political as non-black people make it. As stereotypical things go I can go about hunting, going to church, and whatever else without being labeled an outsider. Your assumptions drive just as much division from where I’m standing.
Point being I just think your view is limited and you should take time to see how Black populations may think in Mississippi, Alabama, Texas, Louisiana. Carolinas, the list goes on.
