In your opinion why do so many immigrants of color continue to come to such a racist country?
The promise to change, why do you thin the white xtian party is up in arms

Other white GOP nominees, however, would love to run with a Black man from the South who - despite centuries of slavery, lynchings and Jim Crow - gleefully tells white voters what they want to hear: that “America is not a racist country,” as he said in 2021 when he gave the Republican Party’s response to President Joe Biden’s first State of the Union address.
For white GOP nominees, Scott would serve as a shield, blocking descriptions of the party as racist. “See? I can’t be racist; I’m running with a Black guy!”
Scott’s biography is central casting-perfect for such a role.

This little, old white lady doesn’t comment on the issue, I just know his comment isn’t being lauded by a lot of blacks on social media, his denial there isn’t systemic racism is especially offensive to the blacks who are commenting.
One comment I find to be true, “the presence of progress, doesn’t prove the absence of racism.” Keith Boykin
I’m happy Scott doesn’t experience racism, but that’s not every black person’s reality.

Tim Scott obviously feels he has to kiss the ass of MAGAs.
Senator Scott said only two years ago he had been racially targeted and pulled over 18 times by cops for driving while black.
Thats ridiculous, and not fact based. Did you forget President Obama?I still say the liberal’s biggest fear is a politically active and successful POC. Because of that they’ll do everything they can to sabotage them…look for every skeleton in every closet, every misspoken word in every speech and then see to it that it is shown and highlighted on complicit news programs … which is most of them.

Please detail the laws, programs etc. that the Republicans have sponsored and passed in the last 50 years that have been for the benefit of black people.
Tim Scott a typical Uncle Tom?!!

[FONT=&]Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) hopped in the 2024 presidential race Monday with a campaign speech in his hometown of North Charleston, South Carolina.

[FONT=&]Scott employed language similar to every other Black evangelical politician: “Victimhood or victory? I choose freedom, hope and opportunity.” “I disrupt their narrative.” And more language suggested that he refuses to be defined by his Blackness.

[FONT=&]In his most attention-grabbing comments, Scott diminished the existence of racism to what appears to be a largely white audience.

[FONT=&]“For those of you who wonder if America is a racist country, take a look… at how all of God’s people come together… because unconditional love binds hearts together,” Scott said. “We are not defined by the color of our skin; we’re defined by the content of our character. If anyone tells you anything different, they’re a-lyin’!”
[/FONT]
[FONT=&]Scott doubled down on this inherently flawed idea as a guest on Monday’s episode of ”The View,” suggesting that the American playing field is level because Black folks have achieved high-level jobs within the U.S. government and elsewhere (though the audience reserved their boos for when he regurgitated the asinine suggestion of his competitor, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, that Disney is “indoctrinating” children with evil LGBTQ propaganda.)
[/FONT]
[FONT=&]Most sensible Black folks see through this bullshit like a Ziploc bag. For the woefully uninitiated, however, I’ll put the snark on hold, just for a second: Racism is forever. And it’s everywhere, including America. That no one is dragging Black folks by their noosed necks behind moving cars in the open anymore doesn’t suggest it’s completely nonexistent in all its forms.
[/FONT]
[FONT=&]Look no further than the 2016 election of Donald Trump, which galvanized the tiki-torch protesters and U.S. Capitol insurrectionists to say all the quiet parts very loudly in a manner I hadn’t seen before in my life. Having working eyes and ears and suggesting that racism is a thing of the past is like passing the third grade convinced that the Earth is flat.
Yet, Scott is just one of several charisma-free, cookie-cutter conservative House Negroes propagating the notion that Black folks bucking up and letting go of that pesky racism issue that apparently hasn’t been an issue since the mid-20th century is the true anodyne for all our problems. When these clowns vie for their respective political thrones, it’s almost always on the back of Black Democrats whom they insist are playing the “race card” as victims.

Who is selling them that promise? America today is basically as racist as its ever been correct? Just read what folks are saying, kids of color - especially black kids - don't really have a chance to succeed here. That was the pushback from the View hosts to Tim Scott. So who is selling this false dream to immigrants?
We can kick it around all that we want.
Tim Scott is a shameless Uncle Tom, and that's the name of that tune.
A black man in the Third Millennium does not have [R} after his name if he's not a tap dancin', watermelon eatin' Uncle Tom.
Post Civil Rights Act, the Democratic Party has been the only place for our African American citizens with dignity and self-respect,
because the Republican Party starting donning the bedsheets and burning the crosses immediately thereafter.
If you're a black Republican, you're an Uncle Tom--end of story. No need for further discussion.

The Old Fart generation is as racist as it ever was.
The younger the generation the less racist, it becomes.
Hopefully, racism will die out with the these Old Farts that cling on to their White Supremacy idea.
Do you mean conservative P.O.C.?
The vast majority of successful and politically active blacks choose to be Democrats.
You've gotten the parties reversed. It was your party and your president who spent 8 years screaming that Barrack Obama had a fake birth certificate, he was a secret Muslim, and his wife was actually a cross dresser named Mike.
