Originally posted by MexicanMasterRace It's actually amazing what right wing media has done. Studies have found the protests are 93% peaceful. That is, protests where no crime whatsoever happened. But somehow that entire movement for social justice is "riots" instead. That's what people have reduced it to. BLM, which is a decentralized ideology, and anti-fa, which is a decentralized ideology, have been mangled by Fox and friends to the point people believe it's some kind of terrorist organization. There is no evidence for this, and the FBI has even gone out of their way to say otherwise, but that doesn't stop people from believing the little image in their head.
"Oh look a youtube video of a store on fire. All the protests must be like that!" They don't realize that the media is showing them what it wants to show them. They see a bunch of videos of riots, so they think that's how it all is. The whole while forgetting that there are minorities being murdered and discriminated against. Trump's concentration camps are still going strong by the border. Black people are still getting killed by police with large amounts of people who think you should 'just obey' when the police commit acts of injustice, but not the CDC who employs actual scientists. Nevermind that there are people who have obey'd and gotten killed anyway. There are people who have gotten opposing orders. Stay still, get out of the car, which one?
And besides the police, racial injustice is rampant. When will we get fair funding for schools? There was a school in Chicago I read about where they had to cancel gym class because some pipes burst in the winter and they just flat out couldn't afford to fix it for years and years. What the fuck is that? Those kids don't get gym just because their parents are poor? I guess that's America.

The caller, who claims to be associated with an organization founded by Burkman and Wohl, falsely tells people that mail-in voting, in particular, will allow personal information to become part of a special database used by police to track down old warrants and by credit card companies to collect outstanding debts. The caller also deceptively claims the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention will use the information to track people for mandatory vaccines. However, none of that is true.
And look who’s behind it?

Fucking nuts. These calls targeted urban areas during August.
No no, no systemic racism here.
These people KNOW trump can’t win if everyone votes. Desperate as fuck. -
2020-10-02 at 1:22 AM UTCI know, it’s not on topic, sorry, should have put that elsewhere.
Eh, I’m exhausted and scatter brained, oh well. -

During its investigation, Nessel’s office communicated with attorneys general offices in New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Illinois, all of which reported similar robocalls being made to residents in their states who live in urban areas with significant minority populations. It's believed around 85,000 calls were made nationally, though an exact breakdown of the numbers of calls to each city or state are not available.
The pair created and funded a robocall campaign that placed about 85,000 calls nationwide that falsely warned recipients that voting by mail could subject them to arrest on outstanding warrants, debt collection and forced vaccination, Nessel said.
nothing about that is specifically targeted toward blacks, if anything the 'forced vaccination' bit is more likely to work on Trump voters -
2020-10-02 at 1:45 AM UTCI’m not gonna argue this with you. They hit all of Detroit 80/20 black. They hit Philadelphia a largely black area. I could go one and on, but I won’t.
Only racists deny racism. -
2020-10-02 at 1:50 AM UTCThey probably just targeted urban areas that are statistically high Democrat voters
occam's razor and all that -
2020-10-02 at 2 AM UTCThey are playing on what is stereotypically black problems.
Arrests
Credit card debt
The government having your information.
Yeah vaccines may not be a big issue, but they’re all scare tactics.
The recording is in this report.

These are poor people problems regardless of race, unless you're going to argue that only blacks are poor and have previous arrests/outstanding debt. If that's the case I guess I'm black
- The government having your information.
This is an everyone-problem, though typically not a concern of poor urban blacks who already have all their details on file for government programs and benefits
- Forced Vaccines
This one is most effective against people who do not trust government in a general sense, typically right-leaning libertarians so it's a bit of an own-goal -
2020-10-02 at 2:06 AM UTCIf its individuals running their own robocalls screaming the N word, that doesnt make it systemic.

Ok Aldra you’re right. I have seen the light. Wow, how could I be so blind? Thank you, thank you! -
