There is always opportunity for individuals to improve themselves and to do things to improve their lives. As a group there is no hope for blacks in my opinion because they have allowed race relations to decline and relapse. For political reasons and other reasons blacks have allowed themselves to be manipulated and used by people like Joe Biden a lifelong racist. This is 2021 and we are regressed to the 1970s even before. Unfortunately blacks are addicted to victimology and hate. 1. The lowest common denominator. The least accomplished blacks, the least industrious and most dependent. The least intelligent. The ones most likely to engage in criminal and violent behavior are the ones who are the political and cultural leaders in the black community. Responsible middle class blacks are afraid to be critical of them for fear of being called uncle Toms. 2. The content of victimization over content of character. Black heroes are not those who have led exemplary lives but rather those who have been victimized in a way that have allowed their story to be used for political purposes. George Floyd was arrested 9 times for drugs and theft before the arrest that ended his life. Floyd was being compared to Jesus by Nancy Pelosi and nobody in the black community would call her on it. 3. Willingness to be depicted as stupid and incapable for victim status. Libo politicians including Joe Biden talk about blacks like special children or even worse like pets. Who cannot obtain an ID to vote? Blacks are singularly picked out as incapable of doing anything for themselves. Doesn't this piss you off? When are people going to be tired of this? Don't you care? 4. Easier to hate and blame. It takes little effort to hate and blame(Whitey). Responsibility and work are harder. 5. Waiting for political nirvana? Many blacks seem to honestly think that politicians can economically make things equal for them. Really? For this reason I'm almost in favor of reparations. We could have reparations checks sent out today and 10 years from now nothing will have changed. The same race whores will be out there and the same victimology will be there. It will not change a thing! Those are my opinions. I'll hang up and wait for your answers. Based on a lifetime of following society and politics and based on the way people think today I have no confidence in black America ever changing for the better.
In the Chauvin trial race was never used even by the prosecution in the case. The prosecution did not even make an effort to say that Chauvin killed Floyd because of skin color. That did not stop BLM, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris from making it all about race. Race relations in this country have gone to hell and not because of anything America has done. America is not more racist today than 20 years ago. It is all driven by politicians and fake media. Black America seems to not mind at all.
A lot of this I believe is because of Obama. Not so much the things he said or did though he was a divider more than a unifying leader. Look at number 5 on my list. Many or most middle aged or older blacks probably did not think they would live long enough to see a black president. Then we got one. For 8 years. Far from nirvana nothing changed. There was no massive wealth transfer to black folks. They still had to work like everybody else. Blacks actually did better under Trump. That frustration spawned BLM and this general hate America and hate the police movement.
Actually, it sounds like you hate black people. It's a bit hypocritical for you to call anyone race baiters when that is exactly what your thread is for.
So we cannot criticize people in this country when we think they are wrong unless they are white? Our country has been torn apart and the only narrative you can agree with is hate whitey?
I knew it. I get called a racist. No attempt to argue any of the points I have made. He cannot. Summon up some courage and try a less superficial line.
Hating whitey is the new black. Or orange or whatever Netflix says it is. Meanwhile I'll try to ignore racial divisions and be the bearer of good tidings to all. Did you see where that white cop got convicted for doing his job? I'll probably never get over that one.
He does spend a lot of time thinking about African Americans, listing their supposed attributes, failings, doing research on them, looking for the worst in them....I once had a coworker who just hated gays. They just made him sick with their swishing and all girly acting. He later left his wife and came out......I'm just saying....
I've noticed. It's always amazing to me how people can rationalize their abhorrent behavior under the guise of tolerance/willingness to understand another ethnic group.
Really so America has not been obsessed with black people the last year or so? You do notice that your president cannot say anything without bringing up the race issue right? I would love for you to argue against any of the points I have made. If I started a thread that talked about how blacks are too dumb to acquire a basic ID to vote I would be your hero.
Not really new. David Horowitz wrote his brilliant book "Hating whitey and other progressive causes" in 1999. https://www.amazon.com/Hating-White...ther+progressive+causes&qid=1619168641&sr=8-1
Criticizing people is fine. Your OP didn't criticize any particular person or organization or social or political movement. Your OP spoke about "blacks", as if you can generalize an entire skin tone of people as a unified monolith. When somebody goes on and on about "those black people" (or "those white people"), it is simply racist and not at all constructive. Much of what you wrote in your OP could have been salvaged if you attributed them to a particular social or political movement, but you didn't, so...
WTF? So NOW it is the JOB of racist white cops to MURDER blacks in cold blood? That is BEYOND deplorable. Sad!
Never in that trial was Derek Chauvin accused of being a racist. That is all you see. So what did I say in my OP that you disagree with? I'm not a self hating retarded white person? As Candice Owens said black people are always trying to win the victim Olympics. When is that going to end? That is why there is no hope.
Black people are talked about as monolithic group(Usually as victims) all the time. And yes they are a social political tribal group. 90% vote the same way! I expressed my problems and issues with that group. nobody wants to discuss those. Just call me a racist. Pathetic. Your president thinks that way. Otherwise responsible law abiding blacks have been accommodating if not supportive of those who riot, steal, destroy property and hurt others.
I really don't understand what makes you think Oblama was gonna be any different than previous presidents.
Candace Owens "victimhood is a mental plague on black America". She also makes the point clear that these attitudes exist because we have a media and a culture that accommodates and promotes that thinking. It is still wrong!
I did not say that I thought Obama would be different. Where did you read that? Other people did! Every time major political milestones have been reached on race blacks end up being more pissed and more violent after. In 1964 and 1965 we had the Civil rights act, the voting rights act and the beginning of the war on poverty. then we had riots in LA, Chicago, Newark and Detroit and many other cities. We had a black president for 8 years elected and reelected. we got BLM and race relations are worse than ever. Trump was supposed to be the great racist Satan. Now that he is gone have things changed?
Which is always wrong. No, they aren't. Everybody with a particular skin colour is not the same. Prejudging people by their skin colour is what racism is. Your USA-centric mindset is noted. We're not all from that backwards "shithole" country (as the former president put it).
So many things wrong with your post. Let's start with "prejudging people". I'm judging people not based on skin color and nothing else. I'm judging people based on words, actions and opinions. Based on those I draw my conclusions. 65% of blacks support black lives matter which is a Marxist anti American group that uses lies, false narratives and violence to achieve political goals. They take sides with criminals over police and are blatantly racist. As far as prejudging you just did it big time. What was that last sentence? USA-centric? My wife is Asian she is from the Philippines. You assume I'm some Bubba redneck who agrees with 100% of everything Trump ever said. Frankly you made yourself look foolish. Doing exactly what are accusing me of. You should be ashamed.
Perhaps Jolly could explain the socialization and thinking that is causing black men to violently attack Asians. I believe it is a systemic thing not just some bad individuals. Blacks hate Asians because they are a minority group that is affluent and successful. https://hiphopwired.com/962560/brandon-elliot/
no, it's cause many on the right did not like having a black President.... that is not Obama's fault then we got Trump the fact is, the last 12 years have energized the black vote, something republicans did not expect and now fears
Again the obsession with race. People who disliked Obama only did so because of pigmentation! Total bullcrap. Has nothing to do with his policies, nothing to do with the fact he attended a church where the pastor says "*******n "America". None of that just Obama's awesome blackness! All you see in Obama is color. You are the one with the problem. Republicans did not like the Clinton's either and they certainly do not like Biden.
