Who stocks your groceries?

Why did Biden inject race into conversation? He could compliment all the store clerk and shelf stockers without mention race at all.

By doing so he degrades Blacks as being nothing more the stockers and insult all whites that been stocking shelves.

Thing is…their isn’t a single Black person the works at my local two grocery stores that I know of.

Uh. Wow.

He was specifically discussing Americas realization of the importance of everyone, including minorities, during the pandemic. He was saying this could be a means to help the racial strife in this country. He was giving examples of minorities fulfilling vital roles.

Why would the idea of a black person stocking shelves insult anyone? Is that job “below” blacks but OK for whites? Is mentioning a white stocker OK or would that mean whites are “nothing more than stockers?” Where did he say black people are “nothing more than stockers?”

When he discussed Hispanics being first responders, nurses and doctors was that OK? Should I be offended since I’m white and wasn’t specifically mentioned as part of that group? Are Hispanics “nothing more” than first responders, nurses and doctors? Or maybe shelf stockers are “below” those, so it’s OK?

Congrats on living somewhere without any black shelf stockers.

Wow…everything is about race with libs…why is that?

That’s the point left is missing.

I understood “who gives a ■■■■ about Christmas”. If there’s one thing the CEC has taught me over the years is that’s all I need because context is for chumps.

First…what you posted is not what she said, so why do you use “marks”? If you’re doing so…knowing that isn’t what she said, then it’s a lie…and I know you’re better than that. Here is her quote, “I’m working…my ass off on the Christmas stuff, that you know. Who gives a ■■■■ about the Christmas stuff and decorations? But I need to do it, right?”

Sure sound like she said it to me:

FOX "News" is Weirdly OK with Melania Hating Christmas - YouTube

What the ■■■■ does this have to do with the thread topic?

Aw, you know, knee jerk post before I really took in what the other guy said. And just wanted to make a point that the CEC would’ve heavily edited that conversation if, you know, some other First Ladies had said it.

EDIT: When in reply mode the bad word in Smyrna’s response is not filtered.

Not at all, quite the opposite.

Biden gave praise to a black woman stocking shelves which he felt to be a particularly important job during the pandemic. That was taken out of context and falsely turned into him “degrading” blacks, saying black people are “nothing more” than shelf stockers, and the best part also somehow insulting white shelf stockers. None of those things were said by Biden. So who has said those things? Who projected those things? Not “the left.”

You also didn’t answer a single one of my questions. Furthers the point.

Why not to all those that stock shelves? Why Black women?

Lol. When all else fails, double down by repeating a “quote” Biden never said and a meme. Go ahead, find the video with him not saying that. I already gave a link to the full transcript. Please, don’t believe me or the transcript though. Watch the video. September 15th Tampa roundtable. Not hard to find. I can’t wait. Then you can post another made up quote and meme. Good stuff!

It’s what happens when libs play the race card all the time.

Nah. Fringe conservatives make things up to feel better about themselves for any reason. Race. Economics. Science. Anything. This example isn’t special.

If he looked then he’d find out.

Best not to look.

conan · 2020-10-07T02:14:40.393Z

Can’t wait till libs start threatening Blacks when they don’t comply to libs demands.

It’s going to be a real hoot.

And we have Melania on tape straight up saying “ ■■■■ Christmas!”.

How 'bout that “black woman” who stocks Biden’s grocery store?

JayJay:

Low profile tasks- like the entire Ukraine response.

Trump supporters…you have to get your narratives straight.

Or not- I keep forgetting that the narrative need not be coherent since it’s just a jumble of talking points addressing whatever narrow topic is being discussed at any given moment.

Remind me again what did we (the U.S.) get out of that? Russia annexed Crimea, Hunter Biden snuck out from underneath an investigation, and Joe Biden got a new nickname, (quid pro quo Joe).

The one consistent thing about Biden is, he sticks his foot in his mouth on a frequent basis.

matt1618 · 2020-10-07T03:08:54.858Z

Notice he puts blacks in with those doing manual labor, Hispanics do the more upscale jobs, like Blacks with few exceptions think the same while Hispanics have a variety of views. Blacks are categorized as lower, lesser.

Oldandtired · 2020-10-07T03:14:00.530Z

Nope according to Biden all those people that are white did nothing but hide out during the shut downs. But people with darker skin tones were putting their lives on the line to make sure all those hiding white people had food and medical care.
This is what I hate about the left. They can’t just thank everyone who stayed working out in public no matter their skin tone during the shut downs they have to make it all about race. It’s like thanking someone with a lighter skin tone is evil…
So I take it that he is down playing the sacrifices of my daughter has made. She has not seen her family in over 6 months while she works her butt off in ICU’s all over the United States.

SottoVoce · 2020-10-07T04:11:16.029Z

Oh. I love it. More and more projecting now. The flood gates are open.

So good. Abandon context and direct quotes completely! Just pure emotion and feeling. Project those inner fears and insecurities for us all to see. We’re happy to listen and much cheaper than therapy. This is how progress is made!

Nah. Biden already did that months ago.

We’re facing a crisis unlike any we’ve ever faced in this nation’s history. We’re being challenged, tested, pushed to our limits. And I couldn’t be prouder of the American people and how they’re responding.

We’re coming together, stepping up. You can see it all across the nation—ordinary Americans doing extraordinary things. It’s the story of America. Nowhere is that more true than on the front lines of this crisis.

The doctors, the nurses, health care workers, first responders, firefighters, cops. Caring for others more than themselves. Doing their job in the most difficult of circumstances. Putting their lives on the line every day—often without the protective equipment they need and deserve. And still they don’t stop.

This is a war and these are our soldiers. As president, I wouldn’t send an American soldier anywhere in the world without the equipment and protection they need—we should not do any less for the heroes on the front lines in this battle we’re in now. We need to support them, pray for them, and when this crisis is over—never forget what they’ve done.

I’ve talked about the soul of this nation. We’re seeing it. We’re seeing it on display in this crisis. Courage. Bravery. A belief that we’re all part of something bigger than ourselves.

This crisis isn’t going to defeat America. Not today, tomorrow, or ever. This is the United States of America—and there is nothing we can’t do if we do it together. The American people have never, ever, ever, ever let their country down. We’ve just gotta give them all they need—now.”

No mention of black, white, Hispanic. Not even male or female. Good enough? Nope. I know it won’t be.

“They’re saying, ‘Jeez, the reason I was able to stay sequestered in my home is because some Black woman was able to stack the grocery shelf,’” Biden is heard saying in the clip."

Its understandable. After all, he comes from a slave state…and proud of it.

DougBH · 2020-10-07T04:45:03.579Z

…or…why bring race into it at all about some hypothetical person?
Agree…he was more likely pandering than attacking. Just like he was amazed at finding a decent looking black man who could speak well.

that doesn’t make it any better, that you actually think it does says something about you
