Seriously? What, if anything, in the last several weeks of BLM violence, rioting and mayhem does NOT prove racism is valid? Where in recent news about BLM rioting endears you to blacks? Where is there not justification for racism? Contrary to what they think they are accomplishing, blacks have all but proven the reason for it. rā′sĭz″əm► n. 1 The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior [or inferior] to others. 2 The belief that each race has distinct and intrinsic attributes. 3. Discrimination or prejudice based on race. In terms toddlers can understand, you cannot force someone to like you. That can create only hate.
I do think so. That is why we've had protests in the streets for the last 3 weeks. You don't have to like Black people, but the days of killing them with impunity are over. Get used to it. P.S. BLM are not the only ones tired of seeing unarmed Black people killed.
Blacks who kill other Blacks usually go to prison for their crime. Unlike White policemen who have got off scot free with killing unarmed Blacks. P.S. I wish I had a quarter for every time some self righteous person has said, "What about the Blacks who kill other Blacks?" I guess they think it's a Gotcha question.
Shook, have a nice day. Take care and stay safe. Practice social distancing. Wear a mask in public. Wash your hands frequently. Bye.
i am doing my best to not hold all blacks responsible for the riots and mayhem and anti-Caucasian racism we've suffered the last month
I hope you don't "hold all Blacks responsible for the riots and mayhem and anti- Caucasian racism". I have never held ALL Whites responsible for slavery, Jim Crow, lynchings, home and church bombings, etc. Can't we all get along?
Moriah, have a nice day. Take care and stay safe. Practice social distancing. Wear a mask in public. Wash your hands frequently. Bye.
A lot of people are getting to that point and a lot have gone past it. People are definitely going to be more anti black now. Personally I'm not investing any emotion into the protests and I am looking at the whole crisis as an observer. Not saying this anti white thing hasn't effected me as a white man though. The main effect has been me treating minority's races with caution, before I would treat everyone the same and not really give it a second thought. But sadly it now feels like now interacting with certain minorities is like walking on a mine field and one innocent mistake could spell disaster. It's sad but I do feel I need to treat certain minorities differently. I have be on my best behaviour and kinda act like a robot. It's definitely effected my ability to form connections with certain groups of people as I'm always walking on egg shells around them. In my opinion it's causing a divide and breaking down togetherness. Kinda like creating an us and then attitude. A
I know a women who got fired for the silliest thing. An announcement of a terrorist attack that just happened was broadcast on the radio at the woman's work. She commented to her co workers "I wish these people would stop doing this and killing innocent people". One of her co workers was in a minority group and took offence to here using the words "these people ". She made a massive deal about it and spun the whole thing as racist and islamaphobic and the women had to leave her job. That night she spent the whole evening on the phone to her best friend crying (my girlfriend which is Muslim) thinking she had done some terrible act. My girlfriend set her straight and had to convince her she wasn't racist or islamaphobic for referring to the terrorists as "these people". This type of thing divides us. It's a joke!!! When is treating people with caution mistrust ever going to bring us together?
The Pecking order determines your social status....So, if your at the top?.....who is at the bottom?...the Pandemics will sort out the pecking order.....The Banks determine who is at the top!...Blacks excel in entertainment, not engineering...George Washington Carver excelled in science, and Fredrick Douglass excelled in philosophy....still, not engineering...Television is now 50% Black....10%Asian...6% Hispanic....30% white...even State Farm has turned Black!... just an observation.. .
This kind of thing is why I'm against "political correctness". I believe people should be free to say whatever they want because censorship doesn't change their attitudes/viewpoints. It just muffles it up to the point that people are afraid to say *anything*. It's impossible to heal a situation if one cannot even talk about it and that means open communication on all sides.
"76 percent of Americans consider racism and discrimination a “big problem,” up 26 points from 2015", so Americans are more "woke", unlike you, the left behind.
Funny.. I tho't "woke" was like the "walk away movement" .. I actually tho't the Left was starting to use some common sense and logic.. silly me!
Last two weeks!? I'd decided to avoid groups of black youth ever since Obama inflamed race relations.. got them in a category with skinny stringy long haired people, druggies, outlaw bikers, antifa types and drunk people.. all of whom I avoid
