How Can Anyone Believe for Even a Moment That The Left Cares About Black Americans?

If we are to believe the experts, people of color are drawn to large urban environments with social infrastructure. Those are the words of Rogers Johnson, the president of the NH Seacoast NAACP. The Democrat party wants that too. But current events suggest it is not to help blacks or black lives.

Major urban areas in America are run almost exclusively by the political Left. In many cases, Democrats have controlled these strongholds for decades (Chicago has been in Democrat control for 89 years). A party that hates the Constitutional Republic, which is what makes us America yet we are told that the failures in these Democrat-run cities are proof that the American experiment has failed.

That the police there indiscriminately abuse and kill blacks. Where public education is inadequate and opportunities sparse. All institutions run by Democrats and Democrat Unions, for Democrats, in Democrat-controlled municipalities.

The narrative should be that the Democrat-Party experiment has failed. That systemic progressivism is bad for all people, not just people of color.

Just the opposite.

The response to these Democrat Party failures is the rise of the Militant left-wing Black Lives Matter with support from the Fascist tactics of Antifa. A Democrat-only voting block of “protesters” (with the help of street criminals Democrats released into the public), that use riots, violence, intimidation, speech suppression, and the destruction of private and public property to advance the supposed interests of Black Americans.

Not one of those things helps black Americans yet democrat mayors and governors have been more than happy to allow this destruction to run its course unopposed.

These expressions have made it impossible for many businesses to open or operate – those that were not looted or burned. People cannot move freely without fear. There are fewer jobs, less economic mobility, and declining employment and tax base. All the things an urban entity needs to thrive are ruined or in deliberate decline

So, to summarize: They want to attract more Black Americans to large urban areas and social infrastructure where decades of mistreatment under the leadership of Democrats has lead to the destruction of that Urban and social infrastructure, education, jobs, Black Families, and even basic opportunities at the hands of Democrats, with the permission of Democrats, and their blessing.

And their cure is to make it easier for criminals to keep these places less safe and unattractive to job creators.

Call me crazy, but how can anyone believe for even a moment that Leftists care about Black Americans, their futures, their lives, or anything else?
