The results of the US presidential election have been settled. According to comprehensive foreign reports, African-Americans in many states in the United States have recently received racist text messages on their mobile phones. The messages claim that they have been selected and need to go to the nearest farm to “pick cotton“, implying that the country has returned to the slave era before the Civil War. . The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) issued a statement stating that it is investigating the incident.
The British “Guardian” reported on November 8 that just hours after former President and Republican candidate Donald Trump (also translated as Trump) won the election on the 5th, African-American people across the United States received racist messages one after another. Text messages on their mobile phones told them that they had been “selected” to pick cotton and needed to report to the “nearest plantation.”
A spokesperson for President-elect Trump told CNN that his campaign had nothing to do with the text messages.
According to the Guardian, from Alabama, South Carolina, Georgia, New York, New Jersey, and Nevada African Americans in , Washington and other states reported receiving the text messages. Many of them are adults and college students.
My grandson received this text message this
morning. This is the kind of shit black people have been subjected
to all my life. This text is going around to young black people. It
ain’t funny & laughter won’t be the consequence for whoever the
cowardly MF is if I find (it). pic.twitter.com/0OjKhUdcA1— Virvus Jones (@VirvusJ)

The FBI and state attorneys general have reportedly launched investigations into the incident.
The FBI wrote on social media: “The FBI is aware of offensive and racist text messages being sent to people across the country and is in close contact with the Department of Justice and other federal agencies on this matter.”
Reports indicate that the identity of the “mastermind” behind sending a large number of text messages, the motives of the senders, and how they obtained the phone numbers of a large number of African Americans are not yet clear, but posts on social media show that a large number of people received text messages.
