@averagejoe1 saidSad thing is he thought he was paying black folks a compliment. Here's the actual video:
He said this yesterday: "The reason I was all to stay sequestered in my home is because some black woman was able to stack the grocery shelf." Jesus Christ.

The facts
The comments were part of a longer statement Biden made during a roundtable event with veterans in Tampa, Florida on September 15.
Biden was discussing the COVID-19 pandemic and the role minorities have played in providing essential services since the virus hit.
"I am, ironically, more optimistic about the prospects of dealing with the problems we talked about today, as well as so many other problems we have right now than I've ever been in my whole career," Biden said.
"And they say, 'Well, why in the hell would you say that Biden? You just talked about all these difficulties.' Well, I'll tell you why. Because the American public, the blinders have been taken off. They've all of a sudden seen a hell of a lot clearer.
"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. Or I got a young Hispanic out there, these DREAMers are out there, 60,000 of them acting as first responders and nurses and docs'," he said.
"Or all of a sudden people are realizing, 'My Lord, these people have done so much. Not just Black, white, across the board, have done so much for me. We can do this. We can get things done.' And I think they're ready."
"And the irony of all ironies is that I think it's the vehicle by which we're going to be able to create really good paying jobs," Biden went on. "We're going to be able to provide for significant healthcare. The idea that in the middle of a pandemic, the worst thing since the great flu back in the turn of the century, where so many people died worldwide, is that people are figuring out that we're all in this together.
"We can get through this if we just level with one another. Just tell the truth, let people know," he said.
It is true that Joe Biden said that quote, but the viral clip of the full speech removes important context and falsely implies the former vice president made racially insensitive remarks.

His comment was about the huge numbers of people across this country (unsung heroes of ALL races) doing their jobs as 'essential workers' so that others can stay safe at home. I am one of these essential workers, Joe. You're welcome.
And yet here you are, twisting his words and making it political, like you always do. Sounds like you boys are getting desperate.

@suzianne saidYou are right, i just saw that short apeech on media somewhere. Not a racist comment in the big picture. I did not say he was a racist, I asked a question. We’re cool. He is old, though. Real.
As always, you remove context, and maliciously and falsely claim he was being racist.

fixed it so it wouldnt be pandering/racist.
@averagejoe1 saidIt's just a natural fact that plantation owners had slave women that did kitchen work. You know,,, Aunt Jemima.

America's wannabe leader?? oh my gawd
@mott-the-hoople saidThe POINT he was making was that minorities make up the majority of those essential workers.

That's a FACT, whether you want to give them any credit for it whatsoever. His point was that we're ALL in this together.
I know you want to live your life without acknowledging minorities in any way, but they're here and they have made a gigantic impact on our society for the better. Let's hope that Biden can continue to unite and include ALL Americans, instead of just white people like you.
@suzianne saidOh bull chit if Trump had said something like that you'd be all over it.

@suzianne saidWow. Are you suggesting our alt-right incel brothers are, once again, basing their bull faeces on out of context quotes?

Surely after being hammered by the truth, year after year, they would have learned their lesson?

@averagejoe1 saidBiden and Trump are both old if you hadn't noticed. Trump shouldn't be able to make decisions while on steriods in my opinion.

I did that AND explained what Joe was saying. If you are STILL too thick to get it, then I can't help you.

@suzianne saidNot on subject, but did you see yesterday where the creep leered at several 15 year old girls and said how beautiful you are, I would like to see you dance in about 4 years. Did you see that? You know, the same creep that said young kids at the pool 'love to stroke the hair on my legs'. Suzy defend these girls. Please.
