OPINION Video: Debunking The Most Common Myths White People Tell About Race

You calling my shirt racist when it clearly isn't just inflames the situation.

Tell me why it's racist.

Nothing is ever racist to whites like you even when it's obvious. So explain why Obama was a mickey mouse president. Because that's where the racism starts that created the t-shirt.

So you do know what the term Mickey Mouse means yet you still cry racism?
All that means is I'm now free to laugh in your face when you cry racism.
What a sensitive little boi you are:auiqs.jpg:

Sorry bud that doesn't explain why you thought Obama was a Mickey mouse president. As for the t-shirt it is plainly racist.

How is it "plainly racist"? What is the connection between Mickey Mouse and racism that makes the shirt plainly racist?

Is any sort of criticism or insult toward Obama automatically racist in nature?

Oh boy here we go.

Do you really think that t-shirt with Obama wearing a mickey mouse hat was actually a connection between Obama and Mickey mouse?

As for your second question, maybe if you had lived black you would not ask that.. It's not like there hasn't been a continuing history of whites criticizing blacks for things whites get to do. But we blacks are just supposed to believe that's all over because whites say so even as they keep doling it.

You didn't actually answer either of my questions.

What is the connection between Mickey Mouse and racism? If there is no such connection, why do you assume the intent was racist?

Who said anything about the history of whites criticizing blacks being over? You're arguing with yourself. I asked if any criticism or insult of Obama is racist because you did not give any particular reason the t-shirt is "plainly racist," and you seem to think that someone who disagrees with your opinion of Obama's presidency must disagree because they are racist. Someone can disagree with Obama's policies regardless of race.

The only obvious bigotry I've seen in this side discussion about the Mickey Mouse Obama shirt has been directed toward gays.
 
Just to get it out there, some links about the phrase "Mickey Mouse":

Mickey-Mouse
Mickey Mouse - phrase meaning and origin
Urban Dictionary: mickey mouse
Why does "Mickey Mouse Operation" refer to a poorly run company?

I'm not sure where that requires racism. :dunno:

And you'll just stay unsure as long as you actually think that was the intended message. You seem unable to understand why blacks just can't give whites the benefit of the doubt in these situations.

It's not about the benefit of the doubt, it's about you starting off with an assumption without giving a reason why you are making the assumption.
 
I do my best to try to understand as much as humanly possible the things that interest or affect me. I understand that the resistance is a defense mechanism but the perspective that there is nothing of value that a white person would learn from a person of color is baffling. Surprisingly, when it comes to the topic of race, the information doesn't seem to be any more well received when coming from another white person.

never



I have never heard the idea that "there is nothing of value that a white person would learn from a person of color "



ON the other hand, the your premise seems to be that " any white person could learn something from any person of color".


Which is just as absurd.

If you think your appearance doesnt matter when you're job hunting you're a complete idiot.
I don't see any black people in your photos (ebonics implies black people right?) and although I've never met or seen photos of any of the African Americans posting here on U.S. Message Board other than Paul if that is him in his avatar, I seriously doubt any of us look like the photo that you used to attempt to ridicule my comment.

If a hair cut, etc. was all it took for you to get a job than you're either unskilled or obtained it via your privilege because the rest of us were required to be educated, qualified, skilled, knowledgable and "fit the company culture", at a minimum. Background checks, security clearances, drug tests, Microsoft and other certifications to indicate that we are indeed as good as we say we are.

Who's the idiot?
 
African Americans barely know basic history, if that, as a whole.

I have been on black forums for longer than I have been on political or "white forums", and the type of nonsense coming out of those forums was so hilariously wrong that my 16 year old trending Democrat, basically mute self decided to challenge them. It was black forums like topix afam(which is moderate and more grounded in reality compared to most black forums, which says a lot) that ultimately made me unapologetic in my pro-white outlook. I probably would have started earlier on challenging black lunacy, but it took until my sophomore year in high school before I finally realized that the majority of black people were really that insane and uneducated.

I remember perusing the internet as an elementary school kid looking up Martin Luther King Jr. factoids to stay ahead of the class when I came upon an early black supremacist site talking about "white devils", and immediately my young mind couldn't process that these were even real people talking to each other in a serious manner; much less fathom that these were real people talking about white people like myself and my family. I actually thought at the time that I had stumbled upon a site for black fiction writers or black conspiracy nuts talking about biblical demons who were hurting black people. Even as a bratty, selfish kid I had vastly superior morals to the average black person.

Unlike most "opponents" I know exactly the kind of nonsense the typical black person will spout and I know how to humiliate a supposedly "smart" black Democrat before they even get their full range of talking points out. The only thing more terrifying to ignorant black people than an uppity, educated and "woke" white person is an uppity, educated and "woke" white millennial.
Well why are you holding back? Lay it on us. I'm always up for learning something new however I expect my teachers and mentors to be able to cite their sources so that the things they teach can be independently verified. Or if it's information of a more technical nature if it's the result of one person's experience or experiment, anyone else should be able to reproduce the same steps and come up with an identical result.
 
Actually your constant cries of racism pisses me off as it does for a lot of people.
Why? America was founded on the belief of white supremacy. It's in our laws, it's in our court rulings, it was the law of the land for more than 80% of this country's existence.

If you're tired of hearing about it, try imagining what it must be like to have to actually live it.

The nation was founded with limited franchise, which was relatively very GOOD for that time period, when Monarchs were the norm.


The history of our nation has been dominated by the steady and constant expansion of that franchise, with each expansion supported by politicians elected by the more limited voter pool of the past.


ie Men voted to give women the vote.



And all of this was well before most of us were born.

He was a Mickey Mouse President because his policies were crap!!!
The proof in my statement is obvious when you look at what Trump has done compared to barry the meat puppet faggot.

But go ahead and keep crying racism. At this point all you do is amuse me.

Obamas policies saved us from a depression. And Trump polices have done nothing. You are giving Trump credit for what he inherited from Obama yet Obama is mickey mouse. There is where you show your racism.

So now policy disagreements are racism?

No, racism is racism.

Nothing more,nothing less.
The idea that you want to turn it into a racial issue tells me all I need to know about you.

You're a perpetual victim which allows you to pass your failures off to whitey.

Obama turned around one of the worst economic situations in American history.

Racism.

Victim? That would be you. You pass off your failures on blacks. Just like you falsely blame Obama while giving Trump credit for doing nothing but riding what Obama created. But don't worry we are about to see what Trumps policies will do.

This is the race and racism section. Race will be an issue in this section. So just stop crying because whites don't get to blast blacks freely anymore.
 
I see no debunking. I do see opinion. Opinion is worth what it costs. The only thing here is divisive pot stirring.

You see the truth. The only divisive people are those like you.
Why because I don't see life as you do? The only objective of many of your posts is to divide and I find that as heinous as terrorism.

No, because what you believe is actually divisive.
Nyahh nyahh your mama wears combat boots. Second grade playgroud lame cries is all you have? You're right I am divisive. I question your self pitying pity parties. Stop making excuses for failure and start succeeding.

I don't listen to white boys who have been given everything by the government.

Now, if you think that HereWeGoAgain is racist based on other posts, that's something different. But if you are saying someone cannot believe Obama was a bad president unless they are a racist, you are simply expecting racism and deciding it is there regardless of the evidence.

I say here we go is racist because of racism he displayed long before this t-shirt shit. You made a ridiculous assumption. Now as you are white you have not seen all the different ways racism manifests itself. But you want to argue how things cannot be so based on your lack of knowledge. No one expects racism. And you saying that was so fucking insulting but you can't help it.

"Because most whites have not been trained to think with complexity about racism, and because it benefits white dominance not to do so, we have a very limited understanding of it (Kumashiro, 2009; LaDuke, 2009). We are the least likely to see, comprehend, or be invested in validating people of color’s assertions of racism and being honest about their consequences (King, 1991). At the same time, because of white social, economic, and political power within a white dominant culture, whites are the group in the position to legitimize people of color’s assertions of racism.Being in this position engenders a form of racial arrogance, and in this racial arrogance, whites have little compunction about debating the knowledge of people who have thought deeply about race through research, study, peer-reviewed scholarship, deep and on-going critical self-reflection, interracial relationships, and lived experience (Chinnery, 2008). This expertise is often trivialized and countered with simplistic platitudes, such as “people just need to see each other as individuals” or “see each other as humans” or “take personal responsibility.”

White lack of racial humility often leads to declarations of disagreement when in fact the problem is that we do not understand. Whites generally feel free to dismiss informed perspectives rather than have the humility to acknowledge that they are unfamiliar, reflect on them further, seek more information, or sustain a dialogue (DiAngelo & Sensoy, 2009)."

This is the race and racism section. Race will be an issue in this section. So just stop crying because whites don't get to blast blacks freely anymore.

You are ridiculous. So because you believe Obama did a good job as president, everyone else must believe the same. If someone does not, the only reason must be racism.

Now, if you think that HereWeGoAgain is racist based on other posts, that's something different. But if you are saying someone cannot believe Obama was a bad president unless they are a racist, you are simply expecting racism and deciding it is there regardless of the evidence.

He says I'm racist because of this T-shirt....

He's obviously just as stupid as the black family that went crazy over it in a restaurant in Marble Falls Texas.

No, I'm saying you are racist as a result of reading your posts since I've been here. And you show the usual psychos whites like you have in thinking that is the only reason why I say you are a racist.
