    Yes, whipped up by Marxist because the history of the US proves that to be white is right any other color be damned..And it functions through social means also to enforce the dominant theory of a superior race.

    She's in denial. She referenced a "class" which means she's very young and inexperienced with life and relations with other demographics. Everything she knows on the subject is in the form of political talking points she's internalized which is why they're coming back out instead of a reasoned argument. GIGO.

    Black drivers have a long history of ignoring black riders. Just perhaps that has something to do with high black per capita crime rates? The left always avoid that in preference to stock-issue "white privilege" narratives.

    I've been followed in stores, especially Asian ones, specifically souvenir shops in downtown Denver that are along a strip of outdoor mall which is overloaded with homeless, junkies, and gangbangers. Context matters and context goes well beyond the superficial glances at skin tone that she's been taught to draw conclusions from.

    This girl is little more than a public school-manufactured SJW agitator.

    The left are racist and assume blacks can't get ahead without their patronage.

    Germans were sent to concentration camps as well. Affirmative Action is institutionalized racism but it's given the green light because most of its victims are qualified white people.

    Look at how modern cartoons, movies, and college classes depict white people. Indeed, look at how Renee is depicting white people.

    Yes it is whipped up by a Marxist. Read the dumb essay the term was popularized off of and you'll see why it's a complete and utter hoax, especially since you're intent on ignoring nearly the entire body of the post I made on the subject.

    US history is one of which the country was 90% white until the 1970s and thus societal and cultural institutions are going to reflect that. That in and of itself is not inappropriate, abuse of other groups is, and Israel has constructed a model in which the country retains the cultural character of its founding majority without harming other groups and that is the model for which we should apply to the US.

    If any group that lives anywhere on this earth as a minority is unhappy with that the dominant culture doesn't reflect their ethnic proclivities, then they need to move to whatever homeland their ethnicity comes from, because clearly that's the only place they'll be happy - where THEY can be the ones that are the ones with as you call it "power" and "privilege." You don't try to tear someone else down because their government doesn't reflect your ethnic heritage.

    If you wish to complain about a supposed "dominant theory of as superior race" (which btw hasn't existed in the public mind in over 60 years), you should try something scientific to counter it... Say... Proving the races are equal.

    So? This country was founded by whites, what exactly do you think you're going to see? Hmong CEOS in droves? Are you upset that blacks dominate the African business class?

    Yes, Crenshaw, the black racist who has made a literal living writing neo-Marxist Critical Race Theory books pimping the laughable myth that white racism is ever-pervasive and is eternally holding a brother down, even while she like all the others avoids discussing why if that's the supposed case, why is it that black Americans are the most financially well off black people in the history of the world AND also enjoy the most political freedom?

    Critical Race Theory is pseudo-academic racial scapegoating and conspiracy theorizing and nothing more. CRT is not scholarly, has no legitimate methodology to its conclusions (a lot of core assumptions of cause are made and are not challenged or explored), and is very low-quality writing in general.

    If only these college students who are so eager to read Chomsky and learn how to critically analyze the major media would do the same with leftist media and CRT frauds.

    Yes. Classical Champagne Socialism; spolied brats with a college degree who have never even been close to a minority neighbourhood trying to boss the minorities and tell others how they think and feel.

    Unsurprisingly. Cab drivers are easy targets for criminals and it just happens to be that criminals often are of a certain demography. However, it is important not to ignore what you point out when talking about cab-drivers denying certain individuals of certain colour their service and that is the fact that most cab drivers belong to a minority group themselves. So, if it is in fact true (which it is not) that cab drivers deliberately and systematically deny Black access to their service, it can not be the result of "Colourophobia".

    THIS! :thumbsup:

    Public school did not manage to drag me down that hellhole and I even hold a Liberal Arts degree. :D

    I know and this has to be the most hilarious paradox in history. :laughing:

    Identity politics is identity politics.

    Yup. Disgusting!

    I look at the power structures in the Nuer community and in the Azande community. And I am absolutely shocked, not to say appalled, to notice that all chiefsmen are Black men. I switch continent and look at who holds the chief roles in the Navajo and Cherokee community and am once again disgusted by the sight of racial homogeneity. :omfg:

    It’s so comical how the people trump loves throw out words like neo Marxism when they obviously don’t even understand what they’re saying. It’s adorable, like a kid trying to sound smart but instead they scare themselves . I know you like the class structure we have....I certainly hope you’re very rich becuase otherwise you’re getting screwed and saying thank you. I am lucky to be up there, but I should not be getting huge tax cuts I don’t need, I’m soooo Marxist
    Hey, America wasn’t created by white people. The Indians were here . This should be a red country and we Should adapt Native American culture

    ..yeah there are the same percentage per capita of whites as there are minorities and women on the bottom of the pyramid. Same with the top (sarcasm alert)
    I love it when racists point out someone extraordinary who is successful and make him/her sound like the norm.
    I guess you thought the Obama birth certificate was just curiosity and had nothing to do with racism,

    You made my point. My black colleagues who I taught with would have to ask me to hail a cab for them ....the other point you made is a black man in a tuxedo will get picked up.why can’t he wear whatever he wants? My black friend has to get dressed up to go to this locked boutique store . Otherwise they won’t let her in. I have white privilege...I can wear anything and get in, and I can always get a cab.
    I see, you justify racism...after all we should view all blacks with Suspicion. You have a point about higher crime,,,but imagine how blacks feel. One of my students actually cried when telling us how it hurt when women pulled their purses closer when he got in the bus..and he was a preppy kid with glasses

    . I chuckle at the ignorant who accuse liberals of being the racists...I guess all those kkk guys and neo nazis are liberals and those fighting against inequality are alt right
    Gee you put down college grads with awful accusations...obviously you are projecting your attitudes onto real college grads

    Stop acting like their master. Slavery and segregation is long gone and I am sure they are adult enough to hail their own cabs. :)

    And if it is really true that the taxi industry is inherently racist, we now have this fantastic free market thingy called Über. :nod:

    Many places have dress codes.

    I belong to a minority group myself and there is nothing as insulting as hearing I am a helpless victim.

    I know , you’re so upset because you can’t be a white chieftain
    I remember when miss America was only opened to white women and when they had a black miss America, whites were outraged .there is a big difference between inclusion and exclusion,

    Well, the KKK was founded by Democrats and Nazism is actually a left wing ideology. I am sure your definition of "Liberal" is not that of a Lockean and by this, both the KKK as well as Neo Nazis are Liberals.:nod:

    Yes, most college graduates are awful people who know nothing about anything.

    Segregation is not long gone....many remember it and do you actually believe because it became illegal to,define blacks as inferior, that attitudes just changed? The internalized messages in both groups will take several generations to disappear.
    Your disrespect for my colleagues is so typical of people who cannot empathize. Do you really think. my black colleagues asking me to hail a cab is because they were childish? No...it was because cab drives drove right past them but would stop for me! They would get in and the driver had to take them .
    What do dress codes have to do with your inane point? Are you in a minority group that defines you as you you define black people? I’m in a minority group also.. 2 actually

    Gee and when the democrats changed the bigotry laws, the bigots became republicans . Remember what happened after the civil rights laws? Remember how they became democrats because Lincoln ended slavery. Stop being silly....you know damn well the hate groups are right wing and vote republican
    When you make a statement like most college grads are awful people, it is clear you are an extremist who can’t think rationally

    How many generations? How come African Americans were doing better during segregation than after? How come Asian Americans who used be oppressed now are at the top of society, outperforming Whites? It is absolutely ridiculous to think that Blacks in contemporary America are somehow suffering from the history of slavery. Not to mention that it is also highly ignorant and undermining to those who actually suffered under Jim Crow and the previous generations of slaves. Absolutely disgusting!

    And this happened once in a 20 year period or every single day of the week and every second of the hour? How common is it to "hail cabs" these days anyways? At least here in Sweden, you have to pre-order your ride either by phone or online.

    It has a lot to do with what I was replying to.

    Nope, I don't because I am not American.

    I am not sure what exactly a "hate group" is and neither do I know how you define "right wing".

    Cheers, darling. :beer:
