You know...your awfully free with your opinions on whites, like you know all there Is to know about them. But when some one does that with blacks you tell them to STFU?Now it's a matter of scale. Think big... or think small. One white guy thinks big and banks big. Lots of black out there think small and bank petty cash. Same thing with business, think big, build big. If more blacks would think big, they'd do a lot better.A white man Bernie Madoff has stole more money (65 billion) than all the black robberies combined. One white man.what are you saying?? people haven't heard of Madoff???
they made movies/documentaries/etc of him
difference is the violence used
You really need to STFU with your opinions on blacks.
Yep. Because whites are telling us things we see are not so. You guys gaslight all the time. We talk about what whites have done and it's documented. We have to hear about how black families are by people who haven't been part of a black family for example. Again I will explain it to you. We grow up having to learn how whites do things and must do them as whites do to survive. Whites don't have to do that. All information from whites is given an assumption of authority by whites and if we present information from blacks about any subject unless it's done in a way whites like, then it's dismissed even when it's true. We have been educated by white standards. We have socialized with whites far more than the opposite. How many parties did you go to where you were the only white among nothing but blacks in your life? How many jobs have you worked where the staff was almost all black and you were the only white? How many classrooms did you ever sit in where you were the only white surrounded by blacks?Everyone has their opinions about other races including you. Look at what you said...”you whites”. How whites do things...as if whites were monolithic in their behavior and culture. You present information on whites that is as skewed as you say theirs is on blacks because if you are going to look at it through the lens of race that is all you get. Like crime statistics.
We blacks spend lifetimes in these situations but we can't possibly have learned anything about whites?
Sure...you learn something about some whites. But not “you whites”. You are busy telling us what we think and what we feel with out regard to diversity.
In the meantime you have whites here who don't think I'm black because they claim to know one black person who doesn't talk to them about race so I just can't black. Or how we can't speak for all blacks when we say you whites are wring, yet we are always talking about all whites unless we post a disclaimer. I grew up in a town that was 90 percent white. I moved to Portland Oregon the whitest city in the country. I think that after 57 years living in a majority white nation hat we may have learned some things about whites. You guys don't have the same exposure to us and for some white person to try telling us how we think, well sorry, but that's going to be told to STFU.
They are allowed their opinion however silly...but I am not speaking for or claiming to speak for all whites. That is impossible. I agree your experiences give you perspective many whites lack but is it any more so than that of whites growing up in majority black areas? Would you tell them stfu?
