    Just as Trump embraced woke culture, Obama turns against it

    Just as Trump started showing bold leadership on woke culture issues and spoke about Social Justice, Prison Reform, Big Heart Diversity, Racial-Integration issues, rapper Rocky A$AP's speedy release in Sweden etc and started attracting large liberal/Dem crowds at his rallies, Obama has decided to speak against. Timing coincidence? Doubt it.

    Luckily, media seems to be aligning with Trump narratives over Obama's, assuming this is not fakenews:

    Obama's comments blasting 'woke' cancel culture snubbed by broadcast networks, study finds

    By Joseph A. Wulfsohn | Fox News

    Former President Barack Obama offers words of wisdom to activists and candidates; Peter Doocy reports from Concord, New Hampshire.

    If viewers get their news from the broadcast networks, then they would not have known about the recent remarks former President Barack Obama made about the "woke" cancel culture that has plagued society, at least according to a new study.

    The Media Research Center found that ABC News, CBS News and NBC News all ignored Obama's remarks on their signature morning and evening news programs Wednesday. Much of the coverage was dedicated to the latest developments in the ongoing impeachment inquiry into President Trump.

    During a discussion at the Obama Foundation Summit held at the Illinois Institute of Technology on Tuesday, the 44th president explained that the world was more complicated than people realized, and he urged politically active Americans to be practical if they wanted to be effective.

    Jeff Sessions escorted from Northwestern U. under heavy security amid 'cancel culture' protest

    Former U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions spoke at Northwestern University in Illinois on Tuesday night, despite attempts by protesters to disrupt the event, according to reports.


    Video posted online shows protesters trying to enter the building from a rear entrance — until a group of police officers intervenes.

    Afterward, photos posted online showed the former U.S. senator from Alabama being escorted from the building by security officers.

    “I’m just gonna tell you: This is stupid. This is not right,” Sessions said at one point, according to tweets posted by Northwestern student journalists. “This great university … should not be putting up [with] this kind of trash.”
    Numerous appearances by conservative speakers on the nation’s college campuses have been disrupted or postponed in recent years amid what’s come to be called “cancel culture” — the efforts by some groups to silence any speakers with whom they disagree.

    MICHELLE OBAMA CONDEMNS WHITE FLIGHT FROM CHICAGO AFTER FLEEING CHICAGO TO LIVE ON A NEARLY ALL-WHITE ISLAND

    https://www.takimag.com/article/the-...t-perished-61/

    Whether or not Michelle Obama has a penis or represents some sort of evolutionary missing link is beyond the purview of this discussion. Those are both legitimate topics that deserve some journalistic deep-diving, but that’s not the topic of our discussion today.

    The topic is that this former First Lady with a posterior on which you could comfortably rest a table lamp appears to be a hypocrite of the highest order.

    At the Obama Foundation Summit—yeah, apparently that’s a thing—she decried white flight in Chicago, which apparently started around the time she and her parents moved into a mostly white neighborhood and people started vamoosing in alarm because they didn’t want to become sacrificial lambs that the elites had offered up to appease black people’s resentment for crimes that were almost exclusively perpetrated by the elites:

    There were no gang fights; there were no territorial battles. Yet one by one, they packed their bags, and they ran from us. And they left communities in shambles….Y’all were running from us, and you’re still running, because we’re no different than the immigrant families that are moving in, the families in Pilsen, the families that are coming from other places to try to do better.

    So what you’re trying to say is that the gang fights only started after the white people left, but somehow this is white people’s fault?

    Both Barack and Michelle Obama have spent most of their lives in Chicago—specifically, the South Side. In early September, it was announced that they were buying a $15-million dollar estate on Martha’s Vineyard.

    Chicago’s South Side is 93% black. Martha’s Vineyard is 3.7% black and 88.1% white.

    No further questions, Your Honor.

    Not sure if you were implying that Obama's apparent anti woke culture stance is related to where Obamas live or to some element of hypocrisy.

    As for demographic contrasts, GOP MAGA leadership's stunning popularity among Democrats could bring many more minorities in MAGA camp in time ahead if these stats posted by another honored forum guest are factual:

    “Of the 16,432 voters who provided data, 27% were Democrats. “

    “ The data also showed that 20% were black.”

    There is a LANDSLIDE that will happen.

    Sen. Tom Cotton applauded The New York Times on Thursday for running his controversial op-ed that called for “an overwhelming show of force” from federal troops to quell racial unrest in American cities.
    The piece, headlined "Send In the Troops," attracted widespread condemnation after it was published on Wednesday night. Numerous Times journalists publicly criticized the article and said it put “black lives in danger.” The NewsGuild of New York, a journalists' union, said Cotton’s op-ed encouraged further violence.
