The ultra right did the same thing back in the 50's calling anyone they didn't approve of as "communists" under MacCarthy.
Yes, and now the Trumpsters are doing it again. Just look at dang near any thread on USMB. Weird.
As far as racism goes, who knows what happened to it?
This is pipe dream shit meant to feed the n-I-g-g-e-r-s and the s-p-I-c-s because they're stupid enough to believe that shit.
Today blacks act like animals because they are BARELY evolved past the Ape and need a strong central figure (the white man) to keep them in place and acting like normal people.
Sick of their shit and we should not hide it anymore. When they call me a fucking racist, and I say you damn right I am!!! Fuck those fucking people!
Why do Browns ("people of color") feel compelled to steal, assault, rape, murder Whites, their obvious superior beings? Browns should be worshiping Whites instead of being jealous douchebag criminals.'
Blacks... prone to violence, think they're still in the jungle, low IQ blacks.
How can you look at the world and not see that ALL ADVANCEMENTS came from Europe and America? Yeah, we're the superior race on the earth. All others developed because of whites
Look, he is actually intelligent and an actual person of color! How often does that happen?
“We swear muthafuckers, you take our beaners from us and we’ll come for your guns one day” Filthy fucks!
MAGA! This is great news! Everything is falling into place so we can build the Wall and thwart this invasion of brown diseease ridden third worlders who are a threat to our sovereignty, culture and American traditions.
Being the elected representative of a bunch of dumbass ghetto Jungle Monkeys doesn't take intelligence. It take a ghetto dialect and a promise to get them more welfare.
Valerie Jarrett.... Is she that light skinned negro who looks like that ape in Planet of the Apes (negroes?)
I thought she was an ape...Next you'll be telling me Mooch isn't really a shaved wookie.
The asians made fun of obama.....the asians refer to negroes as 'monkey people' and not in jest....they are serious....and why shouldn't they be?
Pay the pavement ape or he will get very angry and burn his house down.
Yawn, Kambala wants every African American crack addict to have their own home while White, Red, and Yellow Americans some disabled vets rot on the street.
Nigga's acting like a Nigga...must be part of the Thugery... most blacks don't act like that!
Folks, you couldn't today pay me enough to live anywhere near a large black population.
I believe the black race is inferior to both the white and yellow races....I can prove it by taking a look at the world map and income, innovation/scientific discoveries, and prison populations. Maybe you have some other mysterious way of defining the word but you never seem to say what it is.
Most intelligent people understand how stupid blacks are....average i.q. of 85.....being one you should know.
Come on people you blacks are better than this shit every fucking week....stand BEHIND your police, you do the crime you get locked up...you fuck with THE MAN, he has every right to beat the shit out of you, and your community standing behind you just shows what stupid, low life idiots you are!
Fuck off House Negro. Shine my boots bitch
You're talking about balkanization. I'm all for it. I'm also for restoring the 1790 Naturalization Act, the very first legislation by the first Congress making only White people U.S. Citizens.
Hasn't it been proven, in the last few days, that blacks are incapable of living in the environment of civilization? Send them back to Africa.
..just like Africa is the shithole of the world, the black US communities mirror that
You can take a negro out of the ghetto. But you can't take the ghetto out of the negro.
hahahhahahahahahah
your list is silly --doesn't prove crap hahahhahahah
it proves you really don't have any proof of white racism
Do you consider yourself a racist Harmonica? Why or why not?
for stating facts????!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
My degree is in a STEM field. What field is your degree in? (see I can answer a question with a question too)
He will sidestep that question.

it proves you really don't have any proof of white racism
So, what DOES it prove? That a lengthy list of individuals here,(you included) "are not racist, but just SAY things that are"?
SMGDH
It's actually direct evidence which makes it even more mind boggling that they just keep piling it on.
God forbid any of them ever find themselves in a situation where they're being accused of some crime motivated by racism. The proof of what they think and believe is right here.
Not to speak for MaryL but, I think people being accused of racism without cause is precisely one of the things she's talking about.
And that is exactly why I asked her if she wanted to learn something or if she only wanted to bitch because I was more than happy to explain things to her. Not saying that my explanation would change her mind, but at least she could understand why something that begins as "a charge" of racism is determined to be actual racism or unfounded. And for the record, just because something is deemed unfounded does not mean that there was no racism, it just means that the invetigating entity didn't/couldn't/didn't want to find enough evidence to support the charge.
Actually the same is true for our criminal justice system. An acquittal does not mean that the person did not commit the crime, it merely means that the government was unable to prove it's case, due to lack of evidence or other reasons.
You're not wrong about that. But the premise of the OP is that the accusations of racism have become a hailstorm to the extent that far too many are frivolous and specious. As I said already, the word itself has lost all meaning.
The crusade against racism has become a parody of itself and can no longer be taken seriously. For myself, first and foremost, I have to defend my honor and my character. I have neither the energy nor the inclination to fight a war on two fronts. I can't fight a war on racism against blacks while at the same time being viewed as inherently racist by many of those same blacks. Or many of the whites for that matter.
In the last few years I have suddenly found myself in the unenviable position of not only having to defend my personal character, but also my "whiteness" (whatever the hell that means). Some would have me believe that after fifty six years of carefully crafting and sculpting my moral character (which includes tolerance, understanding and acceptance of all races and cultures) that I was morally lacking the whole time because of my skin color. Imagine my surprise.
So whether MaryL chooses to listen and learn or just bitch, the premise is valid.
You know your perspective would almost be funny when you consider you're talking to a black person about being in the unenviable position of having to defend one's honor and character.
Is racism funny? Is it
ever funny? Is racism ever right or justified? If your answer is no to any or all of these questions then I can only assume that you feel that my views on the matter are not as valid. That's kind of like saying that if I get stabbed once and you get stabbed twice by the same guy, I don't know what getting stabbed is like.
That's the story of our LIVES. Being accused of everything under the sun, targeted, disparaged, our efforts and acomplishments sabatogued, yet you're complaining about a few years out of more than 50?
First of all, this is not a contest to see who has suffered more. Secondly, yes, I AM complaining. Whether it's just a few years or fifty, it's still not right. And you know what? You would too. Tell me I'm wrong.
The black community has been striving to get whites to understand their latent racism. You are here in this discussion trying to convey to me and others the nature and extent of racism against blacks. That's fine. But as whites become more "woke" (I absolutely detest this term) to the subtle ways racism can be manifested, they will also become more woke to black racism. You can't have it both ways.
I'm sure it's distressing to you if that has indeed happened to you but please, try to have some perspective.
If by "try to have some perspective" you mean that I should ignore it or turn the other cheek when I am falsely accused of racism or judged merely by my "whiteness" or see it happen with someone else; not happening. If you mean I should also be aware of racism against blacks, I am. I see it every day right here on this forum. Either way, I'm not keeping my mouth shut when I see false claims of racism.
Can you even imagine how it is for us? And then you have a bunch of know nothings, who don't know a damn thing about how an accusation of a civil rights violation gets investigated and/or resolved or what constitutes evidence.
Some may or may not know a damn thing about how an accusation of a civil rights violation gets investigated and/or resolved or what constitutes evidence, but we're not just talking about official or formal accusations in which formal complaints or charges are filed. We're also talking about informal settings (such as this forum) where accusations are made in everyday conversation. These kinds of settings are where most of these accusations take place.
MaryL has not provided a single example of a case where racism was found to have existed where the complaintant had no evidence whatsoever. Unless I'm mistaken, she seems to be pissed that an allegation can lead to an investigation during which the needed evidence is uncovered and that is how it should be.
I haven't closely followed the dialogue between you but my guess is that she's probably pissed that allegations of racism are too often assumed to be true before any investigation takes place. I know I am. It happens every time a black person is shot by a cop. Before any kind of truth can be determined, they're taking to the streets and looting and burning.
If I had to guess, you all are just pissed because the status quo is being disrupted, again as it should be.
I'm pissed because I'm being falsely accused of racism and being told I suffer from some vague, undefined disease called "whiteness" where the main symptom seems to be a genetic moral deficiency. The only cure appears to be to have whites rend their garments, weep, wail and gnash their teeth at the feet of blacks. Or have a white CEO shine the shoes of some rapper's sneakers. That'll cure it for sure.
I don't know what she's so upset about other than black people finally obtaining some measure of justice with more and more each day, people are coming forward with cell phone video of acts of racism which before the advent of this technology would have been dismissed out of hand with the admonishment of "PROVE IT!".
No disrespect meant but you all can complain about what's happening all you want, however the enforcement and protection of our rights will continue to gather strength and surge forward.
Good, great, fine. All I ask of any black person, or any person at all, is to be judged by my character, not my skin color. It is, after all, the very thing that blacks are asking for themselves.
By the way, the courts have a mechanism for dealing with "frivolous" claims yet they are rarely used. You want to guess why?
I have no idea.
