The problem is that they view themselves as victims who are entitled to be taken care of, that they dont need to help pull civilization, so they dont.
The Victim Culture Cult is the primary driver of this, the cult needs a steady stream of victims to keep going, so they manufacture them.
not all of them..not by far. but there are enough in the cities ( especially the north nd now Atlanta) that want the free shit and privliges that goes along with being the victim class
Trump got about 16% of the black vote nationally -in the cities of the north (and Atlanta) much less
Right now Atlanta is booming (or was pre-Covid) but WTF>
"I'll take black victim privledge along with economic opportunity" seems to be the mindset,
Dem constantly reinforce the plantation mindset - it's a tough habit to break and a ready way to pander
when I was a kid in the 50's and then 60;s there was definitely white privledge - those days are long gone
except Dems keeps telling blacks they are victims

I agree, at least for Blacks in the South.
Truth is here in New York most Whites also had issues like Blacks here. Including Italians, Jews, Irish Catholics & Poles etc.
The entitlement of being a member of a superior class extends to lack of performance and being a dick. When the history of the fall of America is written the celebration of victimhood will be a big part of the story. Setting out to create fragile individuals who have no desire to step up as we have done is societal suicide.

America will fall as a result of income inequality. It has happened countless times through history. When 99% of the wealth is in the hands of a few and poverty escalates, the end is near. People won't put up with starving. the russian revolution, the French revolution, Cuba, Venezuela, the list is endless. What takes it's place may be socialism, may be a dictatorship or may be a combination, maybe be a republic if they are lucky but usually not, but it's coming. Thanks to the shithead conservatives here today with the attitude that we should lower taxes on the rich and the poor just need to work harder, sure fire recipe for failure.
there is no "income inequality" this is a yuge nation. there is income disparity not "inequality"
we have rich and poor -big deal.. such is the way of the world except for Marxist states where everyone is poor
we have a mobile middle class with tremendous opportunites to advance if you work or take advantage of education/trade advancement

Agreed. OTOH, don't consider the ranting of a UK national on the run and hiding in Thailand's dictatorship/monarchy to be a legitimate source of dissent.
To prove his stupidity, he's posted his actual name and Thai residence on this forum. The FBI knows it.
Is that so? Who was "fined"?
When was that, exactly?
I'll understand if you don't know, of course.

Back when Parler was first taking off, I warned that its app-based dependency meant that two companies, Apple and Google, can eliminate it anytime they like.
It was only a matter of time.
The transition from desktops and laptops to Android and IOS devices mean that users are operating in a walled garden run by two very lefty companies. Those companies can do with the garden what they please. Those users who choose to jailbreak their devices have more options, but most don't. Conservatives can try to distribute the knowledge more widely and encourage that kind of self-empowerment. But the bottom line is most smartphone, Kindle, Chromebook, etc users want a simple device that just works and runs all the apps in the app store. Doing anything more complicated would be inconvenient.
People also tend to get their smartphones from one of the handful of remaining providers, e.g. the big three, AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile. You may think you're not using one of those companies, but even then you're probably using one of their branded providers or a small company that's using their services.
That means 5 companies essentially control the mobile ecosystem and can shut down an app like Parler anytime they please. They can also, if they please, shut down access to any site accessed through their browsers. They can also ban any browser from their app store or device that doesn't shut down access to these sites.
There are potential workarounds, but they all involve escalating levels of difficulty.
And since the trend has moved away from any kind of independent user agency and toward crippled 'smart' devices, that's the battle going forward.
Don't get the idea that desktops and laptops are safe.
Microsoft is 'evolving' toward a walled garden of apps. Redmond being incompetent, it's messed up multiple opportunities to do so, notably Windows 8, which was a complete disaster. The PC is really only free because Microsoft is incompetent. But Microsoft wants to take a percent from every app installed. And at some point it's going to shove that into Windows 10 in another update while deliberately breaking Windows 7 under the guise of some sort of urgent emergency threat.
The internet service providers are also narrowing down to a smaller group that's only going to get smaller which would make it possible for a handful of telecoms to likewise block access to particular sites. There are a lot more workarounds for that scenario, but every workaround limits the potential audience and ghettoizes conservatives.
The conservative movement in the past few years embraced Section 230 abolition. As I warned in the past, threatening to abolish Section 230 is a good form of leverage, but would accomplish very little once it's done, except reward some rivals like Disney. Antitrust breakups, which the DOJ and Republican states were pushing for, would have done far more. But considering the events of the past few months, that's a lot less likely to happen. Instead, look for Google and the rest of the boys to "negotiate" a settlement that will see them moving millions into DEMOCRAT and lefty groups in exchange for promising not to misbehave. Win-win, as they say.
I've laid out the scale of the digital iron curtain only in part. I haven't even gotten to the problem of services like cloudfront and similar services, and how they can be used to curtail competition. I previously discussed why it's so hard to launch a rival search engine (there are only two actual search engines, Google and Microsoft's Bing. DuckDuckGo is cute, but just allows you to search Bing without Microsoft seeing your searches.)
Nor have I even touched on the role played by advertising and payment solutions. Control those and no conservative site is going to be profitable. Meanwhile lefty sites can be awash in cash. It's not just the internet obviously.
Antitrust action is a partial answer. It's the biggest one to date. The only other answers are to work around the restrictions, to be rats in the walls, a challenging prospect that will limit the potential audience, or to re-imagine the internet, an even more challenging concept. There are some ideas there, but they'll have to wait for another time.
This is a big problem. It might even be the biggest problem.
The problem isn't just that Facebook, Twitter, or Google are biased against conservatives. The problem is that the internet is controlled by an increasingly small interconnected network of companies who can act in concert to suppress anyone or anything they don't like. You can't just walk in and 'compete' with a trust. In the last decade, the DEMOCRATS, the media, and Big Tech assembled a rationale, e.g. disinformation, Russian interference, for heavily censoring the internet.
Conservatives were slow to grasp the scale of the threat, to react to it, and to build a plan to fight it. That plan still isn't fully there. And there's only so much time.

Legion says he thread bans because he can.
But, doesn't believe Forums, Social media or Google has the same rights.
Interesting.

You are fucking blind. We have bread lines around the block and people making 20 million and paying the same tax rates as those making less than 100k. It's assholes like you that will cause this countries undoing.
Is that so?
Tell the forum how well the Soviet revolutionary regime fared.
Tell the forum how well the French revolutionary regime fared.
Tell the forum how well the Cuban revolutionary regime fared.
Tell the forum how well the Venezuelan revolutionary regime fared.
Naturally, I'll understand if you don't know, of course.
We do?

You & Teflon AKA IloveAmerica have a history of banning the majority of the forum from threads.
You're also first in line to complain when Social media, Forums & Google are banning.
The hypocrisy is rich.
"Banning the majority of the forum from threads"?
This forum has over a thousand registered user accounts.
Then there's this:
I don't recall voicing a "complaint". Are you sure you're able to read and comprehend written English?

Joe Biden - "Time to put Trump in the bullseye."
I started a thread here a few weeks back about how i have been banned several times from the forum politicaljack.corn for talking about biden's PROVEN pedophilia. PJ calls themselves itself an open forum that welcomes both left and right but clearly someone is leaning on them to censor the right. The left has no answer to the charge that biden is a child molester. Everyone has seen those many YT videos of biden groping little girls and sticking their face in his crotch.
