This is stupid.

There were one or two iffy answers but saying shit like felon disenfranchisement and barriers to access for id's are exactly the problem here and they are stating it.

It doesn't sound as good as it could in a soundbite but the reasons are accurate. They are not presenting a lecture on black disenfranchisement simply listing the very real problems.

Notice that he didn't include the actual questions he asked in the second half most of the time, and when he did he was completely misrepresenting what the people in the first half said.

Notice he's also only asking people in New York City, which is about as far away from the places where voter suppression is a major problem as you can get.


M-DEEM - 2016-11-05

From the looks on their faces he asked a question and then ripped a massive fart


Old_Zircon - 2016-11-06

He asked the question and IS a massive fart.

Asking random people in the street, the only way to truly determine the facts. Good job!


IrishWhiskey - 2016-11-05

So the point that minority voters are less likely to have IDs, and minority voters are more likely to be challenged, is invalidated by finding a minority person with an ID?

The same brilliant reasoning we can expect from the sorts of people who say that because we have a black president, racism isn't an issue so minorities need to shut up about it.

China man don't know nothing about black people. All china man knows is math and aborting their daughters. This is racist.


Bootymarch - 2016-11-05

I'm choking so hard on Netanyahu's genitalia I can barely breathe but look at how opinionated these hot young college students are.

This is dumb and proves nothing. But, I don't think this showcase of inadvertent condescension towards blacks is a real rarity among younger liberals.


Old_Zircon - 2016-11-06

As long as we're sticking with the currently popular delineation between liberals and progressives then I most definitely agree.


Old_Zircon - 2016-11-06

Although I would say the condescension falls less along racial lines than along class lines.


15th - 2016-11-06

Indeedly.


Gmork - 2016-11-05

OH LORDY THEY FOUND STUPID PEOPLE AT A COLLEGE CAMPUS???

HOW???


Binro the Heretic - 2016-11-05

Wow, you sure gave them stupid liberal types what-for, Mr. Horowitz, sir.

I know a bunch of conservative White Southerners who would just LOVE to shake your hand.

White guy with microphone announces that black oppression does not exist.

asking random people in the street bits are just the worst thing

Maybe I'm in a weird headspace today, but everyone seems like they're ACTING! in this video.


kingarthur - 2016-11-05

"I'' in Berkeley, California to find out if voter ID laws suppress the black vote!"

Eye. Roll. So. Hard.

Come to Mississippi, Ari, you tool.

"I'm here in Kansas to find out what people think about property values in San Francisco."

Ami Horowitz is kind of like the Samantha Bee of the GOP. No jokes and low hanging fruit, but the sycophants eat it up.

He isn't even trying to find a racist Democrat, he could have just come here. Or looked at any of the responses from the faithful when Bernie and Hillary's rallies got interrupted by Black Lives Matter. They exist in legion, only they keep their mouths shut now because Trump courts that vote.

You have to look for the eloquence of liberals (not demonstrated in this video due to college and being caught on the street at random). A KKKlown will drop fifty n-bombs and put on a suicide vest like a loony toons cartoon, while the left will say "well, if they are going to be that way, no one is going to listen to them" which is the same thing. They're complaining about the aesthetics of protests regarding actual life and death as if the aesthetics are more important. They are telling black people that they will speak like a trained dog, or they will not care and will let them die. People think the level of your vocabulary defines your beliefs, they do not, it's what you do or do not do.

Of course white lefties are racist as shit, they're white. The left just knows better than to use the same jargon as the racist right because right now Trump is courting it and this is tribal warfare.

My favorite racist ass left-speak is "they wouldn't do that at a Trump rally!"

Black people have never been able to, and they still cannot, ever rely on white people.

Dear Swear Jar IOU $40 As Soon As I Get My Other Stuff Under Control

About BLM and Hillary: I have no problem with them challenging her on the crime bill and a lot of other topics; her impact on the black community has been mixed and they're right to call her on the negatives. But I did, and do, draw the line at the protesters who held her accountable for saying that all blacks are superpredators ... because that's not what she said and I think most of Hillary's critics know it. Hold Hillary accountable for what she said, but don't put words in her mouth and then demand an apology.

"They are not just gangs of kids anymore. They are often the kinds of kids that are called ‘superpredators.’ No conscience, no empathy. We can talk about why they ended up that way, but first we have to bring them to heel."

So she's not even talking about all gang members, much less all kids, much less all black kids. It takes multiple leaps of intellectual dishonesty to get to "all blacks are superpredators".

And by the way, Hillary was probably right, we just didn't know it at the time WHY she was right. Crime rates in the city probably went up for decades because of kids hotboxing auto emissions from leaded gasoline, leading to an increase in adults with a tendency manifesting the symptoms of childhood lead poisoning. You know, poor impulse control and a tendency towards violence.

http://www.motherjones.com/environment/2016/02/lead-exposure-g asoline-crime-increase-children-health

Crime rates went down a couple decades after the EPA started cracking down on leaded gas, and have stayed down since. Ironically, as much as I am saying that superpredators existed -- though we can probably better describe them as "victims of lead poisoning" -- the crime bill in response to them probably had nothing to do with stopping them. The problem is fixed and it isn't going to come back, except maybe in Flint in 20 years. If you want to build a good case why a militarized police force is not just harmful but unnecessary, start there.

Go home Bort, you're drunk.


bawbag - 2016-11-06

Agreed on all of that meme.


Sudan no1 - 2016-11-06

Don't throw stones enjoy, I remember you making all sort of racist jokes back in the day.


That guy - 2016-11-06

5 for a bunch of poetv not getting why this is poetv-interesting, and 1-starring the submitter.


That guy - 2016-11-06

Do I need to spell out why a piece of shit right-wing youtube channel finding a way to collapse opinions from legit Berkeley students is interesting?

Are you all just home-teamers in 2016?

site is killing me


memedumpster - 2016-11-06

>legit Berkeley students

Now you're just trollin'.

:)


Gmork - 2016-11-06

Inflammatory != interesting.

There is a bar. This is below it. A kitten farting itself awake is above said bar. This is PoeTV.


That guy - 2016-11-06

Gmork you absolutely have no idea what I meant.


Memedumpster, I lived in Berkeley, did you?


That guy - 2016-11-06

This concept shouldn't be too complicated for this site:

"A complete asshole right-winger being kinda right about how to get liberals to sound stupid"

The site's just knee-jerking.


Enjoy - 2016-11-06

That guy, you should always try to censor and silence anything that is challenging or disagreeable. You'll never make a good Social Justice Warrior like Gmork until you figure this out.


memedumpster - 2016-11-06

Fuck no, what sane person would!? This is the first time on this site anyone has ever drawn the line at Berkely. Of all places!

I never lived in Mosul either, can I make fun of ISIS?

You take this shit too seriously and then complain about others taking it too seriously. That is knee jerk.


bawbag - 2016-11-06

"5 for a bunch of poetv not getting why..."

People have different opinions, you seem to constantly be butting your head up against this immutable fact of life dude.

It's like when I tell people I fucking loathe Radiohead or TOOL:
'but man you maybe just don't get what Thom is doing on...'
'if you really understood that lateralus' is amazing because...'

Stop it. We get it, we just don't -have to- like it, and honestly have a look at enjoy's standard line of commentary above.

Yeah this vid is sooooo 'challenging and disagreeable' and we're SJWs 'censoring and silencing' his important lolbertarian-rightard vid discussion that he takes completely at face value. hahaha wew!
