“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.”

    Oh FFS, “negro” isn’t the “N” word, and this is within the black community so don’t judge. I’m glad they’re speaking plain truth in a way that might have genuine impact.

    Talking politics in church tho? I mean I also agree with the sentiment but what happened to being citizens of the kingdom that is not of this earth? I understand lots of religious leaders are advocating for the other side, but it seems wrong to me either way.

    Title feels like clickbait. Would be more convinced it was deliberate clickbait if the thumbnail didn’t directly show the sign saying “negro” and not the actual slur.

    But that just makes the choice of title more confusing.

      I mean, I sort of agree but it’s not like they could put “Negro” in the title and they did properly put the correct number of dashes for the missing letters.

    Good it’s true. He is a literal racist. If you will vote for someone that hates people with your skin color you deserve what comes to you.

  • I don’t care for the vitriol but the sentiment is exactly how I feel.

    Any person who is not a white male millionaire that votes for trump I’d am idiot, but it’s particular true of black people and hispanics.
