GOP operatives have tried for years to drive a wedge between blacks and the Democratic party

[brentspeak]

Republican operatives and conservative activists have, among other things in the past...

-- Sponsored radio ads, targeted at black communities, featuring black-sounding voices intoning about the "evils" of the Democratic Party-created Social Security.

-- Trained their activists to spread the meme in LTTE of the "Democratic party-enslaved black people".

-- Instructed their activists to join online discussion forums to voice complaints about how the Democratic party is not helping out black people. White Guy Roger, posing as Black Woman Betty, posts that "she" is really, really pi$$ed off by how the White Democrats aren't helping "her" people out and that "she" feels disrespected.

1. "black-sounding"?

2. Actors speaking with exaggerated black, urban voices

and sometimes employing street language meant to convince the targeted audience that the speakers are among their own:

A shadowy Republican-Right outfit called America’s Pac Campaign took to the Black-oriented airwaves this month in contested mid-Western states. could find no evidence of America’s Pac Campaign ever having previously existed. According to Dayton, Ohio radio station WRNB-FM sales records, the group’s president and treasurer is Richard Nadler, of Overland Park, Kansas, but Nadler delivers his message through a Black voice on the radio:

"Today one-third of African American pregnancies end in abortion Black babies are terminated at rates triple of white babies.

Under title X Schools can counsel scared kids to abort their babies without even consulting their parents.

Each year the abortion mill diminish the human capacity of our community by another 400,000 souls.
The democratic party support these abortion laws that are decimating our people.

But the individual right to life is protected in the republican platform.

Democrats say they want our votes why don't they want our children.

Learn the racial truth about America's abortion laws.
Don't buy the democratic lie.

Killing unborn babies is no way to help those in poverty.”

The group, America's Pac, began running ads last month in more than two dozen congressional districts.The campaign discusses issues ranging from warrantless wiretapping to school choice, but the most inflammatory spots pertain to abortion.

"Black babies are terminated at triple the rate of white babies," a female announcer in one of the ads says, as rain, thunder, and a crying infant are heard in the background. "The Democratic Party supports these abortion laws that are decimating our people, but the individual's right to life is protected in the Republican platform. Democrats say they want our vote.Why don't they want our lives?"

Another ad features a dialogue between two men.

"If you make a little mistake with one of your ‘hos,' you'll want to dispose of that problem tout suite, no questions asked," one of the men says.

"That's too cold. I don't snuff my own seed," the other replies.

"Maybe you do have a reason to vote Republican," the first man says.

3. Wedges are a KKKarl tactic: Young vs Old; rich vs poor; gender vs gender, etc. n/t

4. It's an old tactic.

Revived in the modern era by that avatar of criminal sleaziness, Richard M. Nixon and widely used by every repuke, and a couple of prominent Democrats I could name, ever since.

5. Brentspeak thinks jurors should be selected on basis of type of speech they permit

Because I question Bravenak being Flagged for Review for communicating the point of view of the #BLM disruption of the Bernie Sanders event and said I saw nothing Hide-worthy in her comments, Brentspeak responded thusly:

Considering that the flagged individual who you are defending has, among other things, labeled the Democratic candidates and almost the entire community here as "white supremacist racists" (and worse), and has also actually advocated racial riots, looting, and mayhem, I question the wisdom of you being allowed to serve on any future DU juries.

I agree there are a lot of operatives muddying the waters, but I'd be more worried about the social control that's right in front of you shaping your environment first.
