    Right wing media is pulling out all the stops.  They are hiring African-American talking heads to push their propaganda.  They see the Blue Wave coming and they are fearful.

    All African-Americans see the world just like you. Or if they don't, they're wrong and they should, because you know better then they do.

    Or.. maybe we can consider for a second.. the possibility that people are free thinking individuals not to be defined by their immutable characteristics?

      Most people are capable of being free thinking and there are a lot of free thinking people... but really, what percent use that freedom?  That's a bit unsettling to think about.

    I’m sure they’ll be covering this story and how the Team Trump Treason Administration investigated and held the corporation accountable and enacted regulations to ensure it doesn’t happen again, right?

    Institutional racism exists and continues but I’m sure some on here would disagree.

    I agree 100% about the propaganda from all sides, no doubt about that.  But you're saying that these right leaning African Americans are essentially being used as tools.. as if they have no say in the matter.  There are black conservatives out there, believe it or not.. Why so much focus on skin color?  I thought the idea was to be past that.  You know.. something about "content of their character" or something.. People are people.  We're all different behind the eyes..

    Whether or not this "walk away" hashtag thing on social media is a Russian scheme or not, there are actual people out there who are having trouble with the present day, mainstream "liberalism" - if you want to call it that.  And the identity politics thing is a big part of it.  Now it doesn't mean that they are running into the open, grabby arms of the president and his camp, necessarily.. but it's just a continuation of the trend of folks bailing on both parties, which has been going on for a while.  Bernie and Trump support in 2016 is clear evidence of that.

    So you're saying some people change their minds, opinions, and allegiances? No way? Lol

    Meanwhile, Republicans in office are retiring in droves and longstanding GOP members/advocates/talking heads are are also leaving in droves... Trump and his "fans" are destroying the GOP.... but keep worrying about the Democrats... #TheRealWalkAway

    yes, that is what i'm saying.  because color is seems to be so important to so many (think Birther movement).  they are being used as tools to gather votes and then they will be discarded.  they will never be taken seriously as political heavyweights.

    same manipulation happened with whites in 2016.  racist alt-righters etc were used as tools to gather votes and then discarded.  the alt-right is now in disarray with prominent members like Richard Spencer angry and bitter at Trump and the Repub party.  think CPAC 2017.

    Yes, and let's let the alt-right/Richard Spencer nuts fade back into oblivion where they were 20 months or so ago.

    That's a conclusion you jumped to.. so maybe some more critical thought on your side could have been helpful

    At the beginning, yes.. I was on orders from Moscow to spread the #WalkAway propaganda to the PJ online community.  But now I've decided to take my life in my hands, and widen the discussion to include the growing distaste with both major political parties in the US.  

    If I disappear.. you know why.

    I didn't say you were one, you just looked like one. No conclusion yet, there is still time for you to come around.

    I will give you a quick tip though, these threads tend to stick around. If you decide to start one, try and start one that will age gracefully.
