2. That line at the bottom makes the question of "who's the racist?" pretty easy to answer

"Don't you think it's time to get off the Democrat plantation and think for yourself?"

First off comparing voting for a party to being enslaved is grotesquely offensive, and hsows that the proponents of hte meme aren't even vaguely self-aware, much less aware of the people they are addressing.

Second, the notion that blacks who vote for Democrats 'aren't thinking." - i.e., calling them stupid. Great way to win votes from these people, Republicans.

Turns out, talking down to people, berating them, and using offensive slogans that belittle their history aren't very effective!
