Class > Race. Many black petit bourgeoisie.

An open secret is that among the black upper middle class there is an overrepresentation of misogynistic/homophobic/racist/conspiratorial army guys, cops, Christian guys, Black Muslim/hotep guys. Also, well educated conservative African and Caribbean immigrants.

Leftists and liberals do not really want to acknowledge this and don't want to acknowledge that the tradition, discipline and asceticism such people live by enable them a good degree of social mobility in the US generally unhindered by direct racism. People love saying that the "culture not race" argument is racist but these black folks I am describing will be the first people making that argument and nodding along to it, because to them that is the reality. They fear "urban" people in the same way as any old white Karen.

Both Dems and leftists sort of target their broad strokes messaging toward a swathe of POC and LGBTQ+ people and this inevitably lets the GOP peel off socially conservative members of these groups for whom racism or discrimination aren't really major day to day issues but taxes and banning LGBT education from schools are.

If the libs were more unapologetic on their affirmative action messaging (AA benefits such groups I'm describing most) and maybe announced sweeping targeted neighborhood revitalization efforts that improved the assimilation of inner city black kids, or blocked property valuation discrimination, all while telling the socially conservative people in marginalized groups that they are expected to coexist with people whose lifestyles they dislike but will be left alone otherwise, they might claw back some of the vote. But you all are blind if you think that the only people calling wayward black teen boys/girls "hoodlums/ghetto" are white boomers--rather than every black person I have ever known who does not live in a metropolitan area, including the liberal ones.

Tl;Dr most leftists and liberals who fight for better outcomes for black Americans do not really know that many middle class black people closely and so sometimes fail to craft messaging as resonant to their material realities as the GOP does.

Just because you're part of one group doesn't mean you've extrapolated your experiences to the experiences of others. A lot of people are opposed to discrimination they personally are affected by, but are 10000% okay with similar shit happening to other demographics. A lot of gay men are misogynistic. A lot of white women are racist. A lot of black people are antisemitic. A lot of Asians are homophobic. And so on and so forth.

What zero intersectionality does to a MF.

He's most likely petty bourgeois or a vet or something. If he has a white (female) partner and is living in a white majority neighborhood, then he's definitely a certain type of Black person.

It's not that unusual. Like, Black people aren't a monolith who can recite Malcolm X or Kwame Ture speeches from memory. There are plenty of politically misinformed, self-interested, or mentally colonized individuals just like every other marginalized community.

POC. "Colored person" is effectively a minor slur due to how it has been used historically.

Also the sitting in a car selfie. She's got a lot of divorced dad on ok cupid energy going on.
