41. I haven't actually *heard* a detailed discussion of the specifics, but my impression is that...
it goes along with "black folks all look/thing/talk the same". In effect, the impression I get is that black folks are like the Star Trek borg: similar in appearance but really different underneath, all in instantaneous communication with each other, agreeing on everything and all that sort of thing.

The upshot is that you supposedly don't need to have a phone line to Obama. You all already know what each other is to do.

It would be really scary, I suppose, if it weren't so fucking stupid.

Again, I haven't heard any detailed explanations that said exactly this - it's just the overall impression I have of how the line of thought (such as it is) is supposed to go.
