IMO Clay is still 75% performative for profit, but more and more getting lost in the sauce. the ugafish types are the true believers that Clay profits off of.
Oregon is the same. Some enterprising individual started selling bumper stickers and t-shirts that say "my governor is an idiot" and people actually bought that shit
Clay Travis is the dumbest most cucked "successful" person whose children have lice in America, prove me wrong
I hate Clay Travis and Hugh Freeze more than anyone on the planet, but that part of the tweet is right.
I know its easy to hate a lot of the black conservative grifters, but he should be a playoff lock for worst black person alive.
Because they are supposed to speak and act a certain way based on their race? Kind of a weird take. Borderline problematic.
You underestimate where a black journalist attacking black athletes on race sits with us. Candace is an embarrassment, but 99% of black folks don't know who she is or take her seriously. She's shitty white peoples idea of what black people should be. Whitlock playing the reverse race card on guys like LeBron makes him far more hated among black folks imo.
I’m going to lead with this because it has to be said, you are so fucking dumb and continue to show your ass with every post you make on this board. Carson was a renowned neuro-surgeon who threw away everything and took a job with Trump’s admin, and then proceeded to fucking suck at it. But yea, it’s the way he talks :eyeroll:
At least Carson is elite at something. Whitlock sucks at the thing he is known for. It has to be him.
Carson might have been qualified for a position in the the administration. HUD secretary wasn’t the position, especially when you know how anti public housing he is.
Yeah successful black folks can’t take a step towards bringing racial injustices to the mainstream without Whitlock shucking and jiving to refute the points. He debases himself at every step to ingratiate himself to bigots and racist. Each job he gets fired from narrows the lane to which he can stay in, which happens to be white male fragility and victimhood.
He was qualified, but then he did absolutely nothing with the position other than provide stupid ass controversy
This is a weird conversation. Like i get that this is a left leaning board, but theres a limit. As a non Asian dude, it wouldn't be my place to hold firm opinions on the most harmful members to their community. Feel me? Edit: I know you're black, beeds
has anyone said anything wrong and or offensive? Pointing out that there are certain individuals who are grifters and doing harm isn’t wrong. The Carson thing imo is not that he is a grifter it’s just that he is in a position that he isn’t qualified for.
i mean he is clearly not qualified for that job. but neither is/was devos, pruitt, barry myers, tillerson, rick perry, ryan zinke, amy coney barrett, etc etc
I said what i had to say. I dont think anyone's wrong, its just a condescending discussion. i admit however im only one of several black TMBers in this conversation, and i dont speak for all of us.
Clay Travis is a grifter and POS. White people aren’t the only ones who are allowed to point that out. Whitlock is also one and black people aren’t the only ones who are “allowed” to point that out. The difference is basically Travis reaches out to racist POSs a white guy doing that is fucked up but not nearly as fucked up as a black man doing it.
and it's not like it isn't immediately obvious to white people what fox news is doing when they trot out david clarke to talk about law and order
It’s a tricky odd fucking time we’re in. I’m an old timer, 41 soon to be 42. I’ve been having these conversations with white folks for most of my adult life. We really need white people to be anti racist instead of passively not racist but we also don’t need allies that drown out the message.
i get what you’re saying and it is a weird dynamic. It comes down to who you think has narrative authority to discuss a situation. I believe I am qualified but I can see why you might not.
A discussion of “who is the most embarrassing to African-Americans” is not great. It never happens to white people because white people are never treated as a monolith who are supposed to behave a certain way. It’s a regular mistake that well meaning liberals fall into. It’s kind of the inverse of the “regular Americans” bullshit.
