NY Times can’t admit that African Americans are wary of supporting a homosexual Pres. candidate

The New York Times is trying to explain the almost total lack of black support for Peter Buttigieg without a mention of his homosexuality. The Times beclowns itself today with a long article titled, “Pete Buttigieg Is Struggling With Black Democrats. Here’s Why,” that doesn’t even mention widespread negative attitudes among African Americans toward homosexual behavior. The only mention of sexuality at all comes 40 paragraphs into a 41-paragraph story, when the article notes:

And Mark Barbee, the first black mayor of Bridgeport, Pa., is, like Mr. Buttigieg, an openly gay millennial mayor. He endorsed Mr. Buttigieg in September and said the 2020 campaign was too unpredictable to write off Mr. Buttigieg’s ability to win over black voters.

That’s it, the only reference to Buttigieg’s sexuality.

Buttigieg has made no secret at all of his sexual preference, even kissing Chasten, to whom he is legally married, at campaign events:

The rest of the article principally discusses Buttigieg’s record as mayor of South Bend and the problems with police relations with the black community, and other aspects of Buttigieg’s record on race, including his recent “Douglass Plan.”

This is willful blindness, based on an aversion to facing a fundamental fissure among the various identity groups to whom the Democrats pander. The concept of “intersectionality” was invented to paper over the very real conflicts among factions basing their claims  on victimhood, attempting to unite them against their “oppressors.”

African-Americans occupy a unique status as victims owing to the history of slavery and its aftermath. For sanctimonious outlets like the Times, criticizing blacks as a group for negative characteristics that are more predominant than among other groups is unthinkable.

Well Buttplug knows Gay inside and out but can he do anything else

And somehow I doubt they are going to let a lot of snooty, metrosexual white columnists and “influencers” sway their opinion.

Well he sure can't run South Bend, Indiana based on my visit there this summer.

Perhaps there are still enough Christian voters to reject a degenerate mind, knowing what God finds an abomination.

True story on my street. Obnoxious Dem neighbor came up to a married couple of two African Americans from down the street. I heard him say “So you will both vote Democrat, right?”
Man:”We usually vote mostly Democrat but it depends on the person and the issues.” His wife nodded.
Guy: “But you’re black and black people have had so much done for them by the Democratic Party all these years that you should vote Democrat. Most blacks do, don’t you?”
“As I said, we will vote for the individual and it depends.”

Such a great dialog. Glad I overheard it.

Don’t forget the hispanics. The whole “machismo” culture is not to fond of homos either.

[LeonardFMason]

You can’t make this up:

His first name is PETER
His last name starts with BUTT.
He was Mayor of South BEND.

How absolutely QUEER.

Black men, except Gay Black men and Magic Johnson, have little time for Homosexuals.

[montag813]

Black MEN perhaps. But Black women are the absolute worst. They will accept it, and anything else to elect Democrats.

[pnut22]

Double entendre?

[chopperk]

Fudgepackin Pete could start a trend for the American people by having a first lady with balls and a beard.

[montag813]

And somehow I doubt they are going to let a lot of snooty, metrosexual white columnists and “influencers” sway their opinion.

Or...Black lesbian "bishop" Dindu Diarrhea, or whatever

[montag813]

The Marxist takeover of "Christianity" is well underway. Look at the open-borders scumbag Russell Moore in the Southern Baptists, or the dyke bishop above.

Just as the KGB planned it.

Question: why are HIV rates among black men so high?

Forget what the MSM tells you about “prostitution and truckers in Africa...”

[gibsonguy]

You are exactly right. Black women with few exceptions are an absolute lost cause. Black men aren’t going for a white dude on the down low. My Guess is if Poofter Pete is ahem...on the top of the ticket they just won’t vote. If he’s the VP nom I don’t know what would happen.

“Life begins when the baby takes his first breath.”

[dowcaet]

If Mayor Pete is anywhere on the presidential ticket there will be a mass defection of RAT voters of all races. Publicly many Americans say they “support” gay people, but privately many say hell no to that, and in the privacy of the voting booth they’ll say hell no to Mayor Pete if he is the presidential or VP nominee!

I pray you are right. The general public is so afraid of being thought intolerant or bigoted, that they keep silent rather than risk the outrage of the mob.

[MHGinTN]

Isn't it amazing that a gestating human child can learn even with eighteen weeks of gestation left until their Birthday? Yet some proclaim that life for that gestating child only begins when they take their first breath?

I wonder how parents argued in themselves regarding their child when they offered their babies to be incinerated in Molech's cauldron of fire? As the withering screams of anguish subsided, did they tell themselves that little child was not yet alive so it was okay to toss them to the horrors?
