    Default Backlash against Ice Cube for actually trying to help the black community

    All the political bullshit these players have been put on has done jack shit.

    But Ice Cube works with the Trump administration to possibly make a difference (of course if he's elected) and he gets backlash?

    Rapper Ice Cube defended himself against social media attacks Wednesday after the Trump 2020 Campaign thanked him for working with the president on his "Platinum Plan" for Black Americans.
    “Facts: I put out the [Contract with Black America],” the rapper tweeted. “Both parties contacted me. Dems said we’ll address the CWBA after the election. Trump campaign made some adjustments to their plan after talking to us about the CWBA.”

    The backlash started after Trump 2020 adviser Katrina Pierson tweeted, “Shoutout to @icecube for his willingness to step up and work with @realDonaldTrump Administration to help develop the #PlatinumPlan…Leaders gonna lead, haters gonna hate. Thank you for leading!”

    Commentator Bakari Sellers posted that Ice Cube "fell for something shiny" with the Trump campaign.
    "Biden has a black agenda & a racial equity agenda," he wrote. "He has a black female VP who will help oversee COVID recovery for a virus which from a health & economic POV devastated black communities. He will appoint a black woman to the SCOTUS."

    For some critics, Ice Cube working with the Trump campaign seemed like a far cry from his N.W.A. days, when he was recording songs like "F--- tha Police," which appeared on the group's "Straight Outta Compton" album in 1988.
    TRUMP SAYS HE'S DONE MORE FOR BLACK AMERICA THAN ANY PRESIDENT OTHER THAN LINCOLN
    Trump's proposed “Platinum Plan” would include creating 3 million new jobs in the Black community over the next four years, increasing access to capital by nearly $500 billion and strengthening Trump’s immigration policies to protect American jobs, according to his website.
    In his "Contract with Black America," Ice Cube asks politicians for banking, police and prison reform, elimination of all Confederate statues, federal funding of “baby bonds” starting with $1,000 at birth, among other reforms to support the Black community in order to earn the “support of the Black vote.

    After a fan accused Ice Cube of working with the “Darkside,” he responded, “Every side is the Darkside for us here in America. They’re all the same until something changes for us. They all lie and they all cheat but we can’t afford not to negotiate with whoever is in power or our condition in this country will never change. Our justice is bipartisan.”

    Literally the LEFT is looking to fill positions on the basis of race rather than qualification. That's MORE systematic racism against other races besides whites is it not? Democrats need to be reminded there are other minorities besides African Americans. How can you say racial equality agenda but go on to say he's going to bring in a black SCOTUS?

    But Ice Cube is 100% correct -- blacks should be working with WHOEVER is elected.

    Ice cube is a very educated man. The way he speaks and writes lyrics. Its not easy writing a whole story in a rap genre.

    Nba players can barely string a sentence together

    Come on, Ice Cube! Don't try to improve your community now. Sit down and wait because Biden has a black agenda.

    He was also attacked for leaving the gangster bullshit behind after he had enough money to live a fancy life, doing kids movies.

    Blacks have been completely mind ****ed and brainwashed by Liberals for so many years. They can’t understand or grasp what it is when one of them steps off the plantation.

    He went against the media

    Pretty much sacrificed his career over it but atleast he kept it real and is trying to do something positive for AAs.

    The reality is that most Dems “and/or” leftists dont want anyone else helping blacks, nor do they want blacks helping themselves.

    They want permanent appointment as the heroes/rescuers of black America - only in token measures that sound better than what they actually do ofc - because its the one way they can make themselves feel necessary in a society where they are generally the more generic, less respected males and females.

    Yuckier women. Impotent men.

    They want to be that guardian. They want the poor wittle black ppl to need them and want them and value them.

    Because realistically, nobody otherwise would.

    The democRAT party has a long history of lynching any black people who leave the plantation. They have been doing it since before the Civil War.

    Remember that interview with Candace Owens and TI. Candace Owens was helping the black community and explaining the issues, then TI just rambled a bunch of non-sense and the crowd roared like animals.

    Bingo

    Dems actually want to hold blacks down (which is why dem senators like Joe Biden wrote a crime bill that specifically targeted black communities, and its why dem DAs like Kamala ruthlessly enforce those laws against poor blacks while turning a blind eye toward white-collar criminals like Steve Mnuchin)

    Look at major cities with large black populations - Detroit, Chicago, Baltimore, Memphis, New Orleans, Philadelphia... every single one of these cities has been run by democrats for decades (a few of them, like Chicago, have been under democrat control for almost a century). Its not a fluke that the blacks living in our blackest cities have not benefitted in the slightest from decades of dem leadership and policies. Dems need blacks to stay poor and desperate, because in order to be guaranteed their votes they need these people to stay eternally trapped by the dem welfare apparatus.
