A Black Focus Group for the Left ACCUSED of PANDERING

BLACK Focus Group CALLED OUT

One Black man participant in a focus group on Democratic Party messaging to their community called it “pandering.”

 

Eleven Black males were interviewed by the New York Times to offer their opinions on the forthcoming election and today’s political environment. Participants were asked what the Democratic Party knows least about Black men living in the United States.

 

“It’s the pandering to the Black race, thinking that we are looking for a handout and feeling sorry for us, when we’re capable and culpable,” 50-year-old instructor J.D., who is based in Arizona, told the Times. “And I feel like the pandering of “all these broken-down folks, you need us, and here we are; we’re going to help you’ — it’s not a respectful tone or attitude. Actually, it’s insulting. “I think they’re confused,” 50-year-old Pennsylvania school principal Khaled remarked. “I think they went so far to try to do so many different things, and now there’s more of an autonomous thought with Black men in this country.”

 

Support for Biden among Black voters has declined nearly 20 percentage points since the last election in both Michigan and Pennsylvania, according a USA Today/Suffolk University poll published in June. According to the poll, Biden has 54% of Black votes while Trump has 15% in Michigan. In Michigan’s 2020 election, Trump got 9% of the Black vote.

 

Based on the poll, the former president gains 11% of the Black vote in Pennsylvania—up three points from 2020. Still preferred by most Black voters, 56%, in the state is Biden.

Another member of the focus group brought up the victimhood Black American men are supposed to carry.

 

“The assumption that every Black male youth is an automatic victim due either systematic racism or factors outside of their control,” Georgia’s 34-year-old microbiologist Jeremy remarked. Pennsylvania-based graphic artist Rashad said the Democrats “underestimated how much Black men value their family.”

 

“We want excuses less than they believe we need. In our opinion, people should get out and work and perform specific tasks. Regarding our value and how much we believe we are required, I believe the Black man in the house has undervaluation.” Also questioned was the focus group what Republicans knew least about Black guys.

 

Georgian Marion claimed that Republicans fail to recognize the fight minority Americans go through.

 

“Us as minorities, it’s difficult in society just essentially coming up generally. Years of battle for rights have gone under us. And I don’t think they perceive it,” Georgia-born 47-year-old florist Marlon added.

 

Program manager Dylan indicated that Republicans least consider “opportunity” related to Black guys. “I would define opportunity as follows: Their perspective is one shaped by the bootstraps. In other respects, too, that is absolutely true. For ourselves, we can bring things about. The 31-year-old added, “But I have a lot of friends that were born with a house already.'” “They already have a house; they had no obligation. That is not very common on our planet.
