Calling Trump’s sneakers a “big deal” in the “inner city,” Raymond Arroyo leaned into racial stereotypes about Black people to suggest they will go MAGA in 2024.
“DEY ALSO LOVE EATING THE WATERMELONS, HAVE CHICKEN AND WAFFLES WITH A SIDE OF SPRITE, WHILE SMOKING MENTHOL CIGARETTES! DEM BLACK PEOPLE WILL SURELY VOTE FOR US IF WE ALL CATER TO THEIR CULTURAL VALUES!”
I mean the bargain itself just had the cost of liking watermelon. I was warned about more consequences, but none of the usual stuff was part of it. I also can’t disclose a bunch of information about the specifics of how the bargain was made, the organization, etc. I don’t remember what the Enforcement mechanism was, either. I have a copy of the terms from the organization that helped me establish contact, but I can’t really reference the entire thing because about 2 years ago it got covered in McDonald’s Big Mac Sauce and it dried before I noticed. It’s currently sitting at the bottom of a drawer covered in (iirc) wax paper and several other documents on top of it. I’m 90% sure that the words still exist, and I’m afraid that if I clean the document the words might be damaged and I’m fairly concerned with the potential metaphysical implications. I also don’t remember all of the information that I’m prohibited from disclosing, so I won’t be going into any further details about that.

This guy’s mind right now.
Ok. But who doesn’t like fried chicken? Like that is not just one group of people.
Fried chicken is what stands between me and being a vegetarian.
Same with watermelon. What group doesn’t like delicious fruit? Not anybody I wanna be associated with.
I guess we can’t be friends, then. I don’t like how watermelon tastes. I do love cutting it up and giving it to my ducks, though
No that counts we’re friends
Oh awesome!
You’re lucky they’re a duck.
ETA: “Well that’s just ducky” would have been better.
I don’t like watermelon. (I gave that up in the bargain.)
Do go on…
Edit: seriously, what? You can’t leave us hanging
If I reveal the benefits, I lose them.
Can you tell me the other drawbacks?

That really clears it up pretty succinctly. I understand perfectly. Thank you!

Used to live in DC. Smoked.
Picked up the habit for menthols cuz all my co-workers were black and all of them who smoked were smoking menthols. Marlboro not P-funks, but still.
