Is the internet white supremacist?

[Questioner]

The internet was invented by white entrepreneurs and most major websites are large corporations.

I'm curious why the "radical left" isn't afraid that the internet itself is inherently "white supremacist", or that the primarily white billionaires who run the internet and most major social media websites aren't using it for purposes such as social engineering and perpetuating discrimination against minorities.

Websites such as Twitter may, for example, take open opposition to "racism, sexism, homophobia" and so forth for PR reasons, but this may be mainly to save face, and it's entirely possible that behind the scenes, they still engage in social engineering and attempts to enhance the status of their white male and female employs at the expense of minority demographics and the 'underprivileged'.

Such as, say keeping a log of the IP addresses of minority users, and distributing them to government agencies such as the FBI, for the purposes of racial profiling.

'Rubber Room' material! If you want to know what the "radical left" thinks, go to one of their boards. Here 99.9% are your average Americans. Just because we think Trump's a Grade A a**hole, doesn't make us radicals, just perceptive.

If everything which is supposedly "white", including the English language and all of so-called "Western Civilization" since its inception, then why would the internet, probably the "whitest" place there is, be any different, or anything more than another system founded on inherently "racist" principles?

Doubling down on the cluelessness, eh? How much is Vlad paying you, comrade?

I'm just saying that. to whoever it is who believes they can't trust so called "white people", how on earth can they trust Google, Facebook, YouTube, and other predominantly rich white male enterprises with their personal information?

And why would they have faith in a corporate PR stunt, such as a website like Twitter making a public statement against racism, knowing that this will be trendy with its social media users, all the while keeping profiles on minority users for the purposes of targeted advertising, racial profiling, or whatnot?

I'd venture that disbanding and starting their own social media enterprises may eventually be their only option.

Reducing conversations to written expressions of facts and logic is discriminatory against those who have neither.

Lest we forget, it was George Washington Carver who was the original inventor of the internet. In addition, he also invented many products made out of peanuts, such as peanut butter, peanut oil, peanut bars, Snickers Bars, and those M&Ms with the peanut in the middle.

In 1888, George Washington Carver said "I am working on a new form of communication that takes place over wires. Someday every home in this country will have a device I call a "computer." This device will allow people to send mail to each other, to watch cat videos, or even porn movies."

He also invented the sippy-straw, which was a favorite back in the day...

Interesting, yes I agree that there are intelligent black men and women, I see no excuse for racism or using approximations such as "average IQs" to deny the merit of those who stand out.

Especially when the "average person" posting about an "average IQ" has an "average one" or "below-average" one at best.

Actually only about 10% of posters on this board are truly representative of average Americans, most here are moderately radical to full blown radical regardless of which ideology they support.

Once again, I question why you're asking about "radical leftists" here? They are so few and far between that I can only assume you're a troll.

Any leftist who fits the above profile.

If they can't trust "white people", or blame "whitey" for ills such as colonialism, why would they trust the internet?

Cyberspace and its inhabitants may be the new frontier for "whitey" to colonize.

Websites such as Twitter may, for example, take open opposition to "racism, sexism, homophobia" and so forth for PR reasons, but this may be mainly to save face, and it's entirely possible that behind the scenes, they still engage in social engineering and attempts to enhance the status of their white male and female employs at the expense of minority demographics and the 'underprivileged'.

Such as, say keeping a log of the IP addresses of minority users, and distributing them to government agencies such as the FBI, for the purposes of racial profiling.

Jesus Christ, snowflake. Get over yourself.

But I any measure there are many more "radical rightists" than "radical leftists" here. Perhaps I should ask the OP to defend the KKK.

It was invented by government socialism.

Government itself is socialism, if one is arguing from an anarchist point of view (and in practice, they're more or less okay with it).

False premise, "Q". Even Worf can spot the deficiency of your opening statement.

For now but that tends to swing back and forth over time and I wouldn't say many more it's just the ones we have tend to be much more "vocal". Every honest assessment of the board since I've been here has shown that it stays about equal between right and left, sometime more on the right sometimes more on the left.
Obama brought out the crazies on the right and to a small degree the crazies on the left, Trump brought out the crazies on the left and the right in fairly equal numbers.
True moderates typically don't post on political message boards whereas the more extremes tend to populate political message boards, this board like most is a perfect example.
