A Birmingham Baptist church is targeting Black voters with a sign calling those who plan to vote for Trump "ignorant stupid negroes."

cross-posted from: https://slrpnk.net/post/14813146

“Attention to all blacks who plan to vote for Trump,” the sign outside New Era Baptist Church reads, “you are an ignorant stupid negro.” The other side says, “Warning African Americans: A vote for Trump will put Blacks back to picking cotton.”

      Ah, the democrats are showing their true colors once again as the party of the KKK.

      Last time I checked the KKK endorses the Republican party these days. Same as literal Nazis. Isn’t that why Republicans allow Klan hoods and Nazi flags at their gatherings? Calling Democrats the party of the KKK isn’t the insult you think it is when Republicans are the ones openly embracing their rhetoric.

      Republicans will call themselves a dictator and get mad when others calls themselves anti dictator. Bunch of snowflakes.

        Also the father of the current Republican candidate was arrested at a Klan rally while the current Democratic candidate is literally black, making the statement even more asinine.

        Additionally, her father is the first black scholar granted tenure at the Stanford Department of Economics.

          I didn’t call anybody a Nazi. I simply said that Republicans rather enjoy keeping the company of the Nazis and the KKK. But you know what they say about Nazi bars 🤷‍♂️

      “there was no switch. That’s why you see all of those Democrats waving the Confederate flag. That why all of the Confederate states are deep blue.”

        Black people had already switched over to the Democrats in the 1940s well before the Civil Rights Act happened. The “Big Switch” in the 1960s was North vs South, not White vs Black.

          No one is saying black people switched any thing. We are talking about how the Democrats were confederate supporters during the civil war and immediately after, and then there was a switch where the Republicans became the party of confederate supporters. Which is why it’s republicans now who are flying the racist and traitorous confederate flags now, and no longer the democrats.

              Lol Mississippi is still flying the Confederate flag at their capitol. “Just a tiny minority!” Where have you been the past 2 decades, defending flying the Confederate flag as some kind of “southern pride” thing? And weren’t you just arguing that the Democrats are the party of the KKK? Which, of course, is not true, but it didn’t seem you care much about something being a “tiny minority” then.
