    So, in your opinion, this Australian Woman is "Center-Left"?

    Lehman has the reputation of being somewhat of a Looney Toon:

    Bari Weiss regards Lehmann as one of the leaders of the so-called "intellectual dark web

    Intellectual dark web (IDW) is a loosely defined informal group of commentators who oppose what they believe to be the dominance of identity politics, political correctness, partisan politics, cancel culture and the establishment in higher education and the news media.


    Given her obvious bias, I don't think her "opinion" on this matter really carries much weight.

    So Trump doesn't think that there is a bias against white people. Good to know.

    Some opinions are more valuable than others, just like in Animal Farm, where "All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others," eh?

    The Dark Web hosted participation from the left, center and right of political thought. They conversed to find major points of agreement as well as to calmly and thoughtfully debate on differences. Seems like a good idea to me. You call it "Looney Toon". To each his own, equal, opinion.

    Did I say that? Hint: "No." ;)

    I expect he'd have proceeded with the same response if he heard that black, Asian or Hispanic men were being separated from everyone else to "teach" them that they are inferior to the rest of society and guilty of everything wrong with America.

    Wish I could have been there! I'd have told her that Twinkies and ho-ho's will never be safe around her!

    Newsflash- a lot of blacks are sick of identity politics too. I think its safe to say they're not 'defending white America', just defending America. Identi politics are the wedge dividing us. Trump is opposing that wedge, and most of us that support him -of all ethnicities- oppose that wedge as well.

    I need some new T-Top fabric for my boat and I am impressed with the durability of the fabric she is wearing! I wonder how many ft. lbs. of force that can withstand before it ruptures?

    Lol yet they protest and it falls on death ears.
    Some of those you listed just make me laugh. Of course black employment is going to go up when jobs is coming back. There are also more adult African Americans than before the last crash.
    Look at what segment has been hurt the worst on all fronts.. yea African Americans unemployment is much higher percentage rate than whites so those numbers are gone.
    Wow he signed his name to prison reform African Americans should bring out the carpet for him maybe they would if they didnt get as trump says If the police didn't bang their head to the police car on the way in it like trump suggested in 2015.
    Opportunity zones you mean he is pushing them out of the suburba as trump is trying to save them from those low income people which generally be black...

    Guess you did not read it or you would not be 100% wrong. Guess you just like to fire before thinking huh. NYT is what this is from Yahoo really doesnt have journalist they tend to take pages from other sites and put them on their site.


    Btw I wasnt necessarily going for the title just used it since the board asks ya to use it when creating a thread. My issue was not with the journalist opinions but trumps tweets. Which is why I specifically copied and pasted that part. I am not a fan of opinions either way because generally speaking they are usually filled with half truths or twists of the truth.

    Being anti-white is racist....glad we have a President fighting racism.

    On the other side we have Biden, who was for segragration and actively spread racial fear and division....telling black people they ain't really black if they don't follow hs lead, and suggesting to them they will be put back in chains if they don't support his views.

    I thought it was orginally to protest the murder of George Flyod....yet another unarmed black man killed by a agent of a liberal run Govt.

    Sadly, left wing terrorist overtook that protest and began rioting and looting...ripping down monunments to famous Americans, such as Lincoln, Frederick Douglas and Grant.....attempting to fundamentally change America.

    Sadly they have attempted to remove even religious monuments

    Sadly these leftist terrorist don't want to discuss the point of the protest....George...killed at the hands of an agent of a liberal Govt

    To be treated fairly. Why is it that they get arrested or stopped if they are not in the "hood"
    Why do the police always think they are breaking the law.
    As far as I know (I am not African American so I cant really speak for them although working in those neighborhood for years you see plenty of differences in how they are treated by the law) they would like better police reform. Defund the police is not getting rid of them like trump wants you to believe. Its shifting some funds to cut down on police interactions.
    Police have a very stressful job I'm sure but some handle it better than others. Sometimes it might be better to send someone out if it's not a violent situation...

    If they don't break the law then they don't get arrested. Treating police officers with respect would go a long way to improving relations.

    In areas with very high crime rates police will be more suspicious. But still, if nobody is breaking a law then nobody will be arrested.

    Shifting funds to cut down on police interactions? What does that mean? Where are these funds going? Explain.

    I think its demonstrably provable that in the cases where protests have ensued from police interactions with suspects the police have been more than fair and even shown more deference and restraint than was necessary. In each case things did not go bad and people did not get shot or killed until the suspect became violent with authorities. I would not want to send out an unarmed social worker or similar into a situation where the suspect could kill them, kidnap them, rape them, etc... if things went wrong. Like it or not, the raw undeniable stats show that as a percentage of the population, blacks commit violent crimes at a rate 7-10 times higher than all other races - mainly against other blacks - in the cities its even higher. I am sure racial profiling might account for a small amount of the disparity in crime statistics - but it would likely be a small amount. The numbers are just too overwhelming.

    One could easily argue that the crime-ridden areas are perfect empirical evidence that 50 years of voting Democrat has failed the black community.
