    Do you have any proof or even evidence that racism is taught in society?

    Don't say this lady was taught this, you have no clue if it was taught to her or if she's got this way from her own personal experiences.

    What, you think calling someone a ni**er is meant as a complement?

    End it completely? Of course not. But can we get say 60% of our country towards a common end? I believe we can, and I believe we had before the social justice warriors pushed us back. But if the SJW pushed us back, then we must push forward against that with greater unity.

    How is it irrelevant when you asked specifically "What, you think calling someone a ni**er is meant as a complement?" and I posted where they called it a word of endearment in certain circles. Is Papoose just a white supremacist telling us what we want to hear?

    Oh look, another "whites are bad" story. As though only they can be racist....I've encountered some very hateful, black and brown folks, as well.

    Where has anyone said that only white people can be racist?

    Stop trying to argue based on technicalities. The SJW 'anti racism' movement is solely centered around one race being racist...whites.

    Just because nobody has come out and said it, doesn't mean it isn't obvious as to the tone of this movement.

    If you want to argue otherwise, can you point me in the direction of a 'movement' or 'organization' that's actively pushing against another race being racist?

    How is this “systematic” racism? Do you know what the word systematic means and how to use it in it’s proper context?

    I am sorry you didn't understand a single thing I posted on my personal views of racism. But I explained it, I can't make you understand it.

    Racism, as I stated, is the belief, one race is superior to another. Period. Look up the definition. Groups within the supposed same race, are not racist against their own supposed race. They may be against a different culture within their race, but not against their very own race. One can't be racist against themselves. If superiority is the definition.

    Or perhaps because he was yelling at her and trying to tell he what to do and she told him to basically Foff? You know it it was a white guy yelling at a black woman it would be the white guy being called a racist and the black woman brave for standing up to him.

    What?
    1st the left doesn't have to tell you what the profile is.
    The black people of America tell it all the time. DUH. It's the color of their skin.

    Read the OP link for crying out loud.

    Lol...so you won’t say what the profile is all while you say the profile for whites is privilege and supremacy.

    Why would the color of someone’s skin negatively profile someone unless it was negative? I’m going to say the profile the left uses is racist. Own it.

    Wow. I thought she bought tickets to watch a basketball game.

    But as the OP pointed out, black athletes are a commodity, not actually viewed as a human. Thx for supporting what the story in the OP is about.

    yes, we see that in colleges as they give free rides to blacks to sacrifice their bodies for a few years of sports just so those colleges can cash in. So when are you going to call those colleges slave owners?

    What makes their skin something worth noticing? It’s the profile you guys say exists.

    For a moment, can you sit back and reflect upon your own racism.

    No, the lady, according to the story of the OP was teaching it. With her language and tone in front of her son. Unknowingly.
    But likely, she was taught those same beliefs while she was growing up. And wasn't aware of it either.

    It's ingrained. It's been part of society since the founding of the country. Many can't even recoginize it.

    The millionaire in the OP is telling us how he’s a victim of a word blacks use billions of times a day.
