Black folks aren’t monolithic, we do have different opinions (even bad ones) that vary from person to person.

Agreed. It was kinda shocking to me tho, especially with trump’s ideals. You’d expect most black folks not to like him.

In the last 2 years I have been shocked at the number of vocal trump supporters that aren’t boomer white dudes. I worked for a trump supporting lesbian and with a few black trump supporting men ages 22/35/54. Had some good convos, but nonetheless I still can’t understand it.

Imo those are the people who put racism in the back of there head if they can make money. It's like neo-Booker T logic (minus the calls for segregated communities but still wanting the bootstraps mentality)

A lot of gay and black people are waiting for the day they can be treated as straight and white never once stopping to think the status of "white" and "straight" as the higher status is the reason they can't feel comfortable being gay or black.
