First off, I'm not playing the right wing prove it because I don't want to admit the laws and policies exist that I use to discriminate and see other whites use to discrominate because you're black and calling it out game. You know they exist, you 've seen it being done.
No, it doesn't prove your point because this isn't about you disagreeing with me. You don't go into any thread by a white person who talks about race and do this. Besides what is your basis of disageeeing with what I have seen and experienced? Because you're white and you say so? Not good enough. And neither are references to Thomas Sowell or others in that vein.
For some reason you believe that blacks are just voting democrat because we are told to and that's telling me you don't believe we can actually think for ourselves. That's racist.
Why is the hell would I agree with the crap Byron Donalds said? The boy is 48. When he was born, I was in High School. When I started college, he waS still pissing his pants. He didn't see the 1960's. nor did he experience first hand what the Great Society programs did for blacks. There are suburbs full of divorced white women with children who don't get alimony checks. But Donalds repeats some white racist bullshit about the black family. He is an idiot but you think he's great because he repeats what you want to believe.
That's not how racism works today and you know it. For example I have posted a story told by Flash about how he discriminated by race in hiring for 20 years. He got away with it because his boss didn't want to abide by the law. There were no signs saying blacks need not apply, they just didn't hire blacks. Thats how systemic racism works today and you know it. So stop playing stupid. The individual people are part of the ******* system. Let's stop being obtuse.
You can stop looking for ways to deny racism. Gerrymandering has taken place to break up majority black districts. The courts have called states on this.
Wrong. White women have been mistreated. The fact that white women benefitted the most shows how white men still practice racism. Because gender was not ruled against in the decision, only race.
More racist thinking. Nobody went in the opposite direction. White racists started crying about AA or equal opportunity nearly as soon as the policy began. There is no favor, and whites are not entitled to 100 percent of anything in this country. DEI doesn't discrminate unless you beieve whites are entitled to everything. How can a business with 90 whites be discriminating against whites just because they hire 10 blacks? You racists have misused the 14th Amendment. Nobody black working in a predominanty black company could begin to whine about racial discrimination if a white person was hired for a job instead of them. But this is what whites are doing as it pertains to DEI and it's disiigenuous.
And here we see more white racism. Whites have continually been hired only because they are white since the beginning of this country and yet, not once do you consider that or question their qualifications.
And here we see more racism. Asking you to stop being a racist isn;t capitualtion amd yu arenot being called a racist because yu disagree with me. You really have no basIs on which to disagree, but you believe that you can just say you disagree without having exPerienced on second of being black in this country. So maybe if you stoppped using dumb racist lines like "maybe if you stopped thinking everything was racism."
Because what whites like you don't seem to understand is that we live facing racism every day. We have to navigate and survive by doing so. So after years and years of seeing racist behavior, we know racism when we see it. Unfortunately many whites do racist stuff wthout thinking and then wonder why they are called racists. For example, what you have said about DEI is classc white racism. But you think you have made a cogent and well reasoned argument against DEI.
Racism doesn't exist because I think everything is racist and it won't go away until whites such as yourself see that it is your responsbility to end the shit whites started. We don't have to capitulate to your racism, nor do we have to accept it's existence. So maybe if you stopped denying racism and began to do what it truly takesto end it, then racism WILL be gone.
I'm out. I stayed up way too long.
First off, I'm not playing the right wing prove it because I don't want to admit the laws and policies exist that I use to discriminate and see other whites use to discrominate because you're black and calling it out game. You know they exist, you 've seen it being done.
You don’t want to admit to laws you use to discriminate? Is this a revelation on your part?
If they exist, you can certainly post a couple of these laws that discriminate against black people.
No, it doesn't prove your point because this isn't about you disagreeing with me.
Sure it is, it’s all about a disagreement. YOU want to call it racism…which I’m trying to point out that not everything is based in racism.
You don't go into any thread by a white person who talks about race and do this.
Sure, because those people aren’t weaponizing race against a specific subset of people. Sure, there are racists on this forum, they make themselves know, but what you are doing is, as many in black and left wing media are doing, using race as a weapon.
Besides what is your basis of disageeeing with what I have seen and experienced?
My basis is that you automatically attribute everything to race.
Because you're white and you say so? Not good enough. And neither are references to Thomas Sowell or others in that vein.
There you go again, you are stereotype me based on my argument. You have no proof that I’m white, black, Asian, middle eastern, or Hispanic. You just look at my argument and assume I’m white…..
Ahh, discount sowell…because he is a black man not towing the democratic/black line.
For some reason you believe that blacks are just voting democrat because we are told to and that's telling me you don't believe we can actually think for ourselves. That's racist.
It’s not racist…you are proving this assumption with every post. No, not every black person is taken in by the Republican Party…and those are the conservatives like sowell, Owen’s, Webb, west….but they are not “real” black people in you’re eyes, because they believe something else.
The fact that almost 86% of black people vote democrat should tell you something. The dems promise black folks all kinds of things, but never deliver, but more than that, black children grow up with democrat parents..so they most likely grow up democrats themselves.
It’s not racist…it’s just the truth. A lot of your political leaning comes from the house you grew up in.
Why is the hell would I agree with the crap Byron Donalds said? The boy is 48.
Why would that be relevant? There are many in Congress, on the left, who are young.
He is an idiot but you think he's great because he repeats what you want to believe.
I didn’t watch all of the video because i quickly saw where it was going. But I did watch some of it.
There were no signs saying blacks need not apply, they just didn't hire blacks. Thats how systemic racism works today and you know it.
Show me the company policies in place he used to not hire black people? It’s like I said, there is no system in place. Now. If you want to say individual people perpetrate racism, I’ll agree with that., but you won’t find a company out there with any policies on their books that advocate for disfavoring black people.
You can stop looking for ways to deny racism. Gerrymandering has taken place to break up majority black districts.
Both sides gerrymander. Show us how any of it was BECAUSE they were black, rather than because they vote democrat.
The fact that white women benefitted the most shows how white men still practice racism. Because gender was not ruled against in the decision, only race.
Seems like there is no need for AA anymore, DEI has taken its place.
More racist thinking. Nobody went in the opposite direction. White racists started crying about AA or equal opportunity nearly as soon as the policy began. There is no favor, and whites are not entitled to 100 percent of anything in this country. DEI doesn't discrminate unless you beieve whites are entitled to everything
It wasn’t equal opportunity that was the problem, it’s when it was changed to “equity” is when it because a problem. I believe all people should be judged on their abilities based on equality, but you are having weight being added to the process based on race, which means equity. They want to engineer an outcome, based on weighted hiring practices. It’s basically the same thing you are complaining that whites do, but when it benefits blacks…then it’s ok.
How can a business with 90 whites be discriminating against whites just because they hire 10 blacks?
What was the reason they hired the 10 blacks? Because they were the most qualified? Or because equity based HR policies dictated that a certain percentage of the company had to be minority?
Nobody black working in a predominanty black company could begin to whine about racial discrimination if a white person was hired for a job instead of them
The fact that you have predominantly black companies should tell you something. “But, you have companies that are predominantly white!!”. Yeah, that’s because, when looking at the racial makeup of the country, there are many more times the number of whites. Having a predominantly black company can only happen in one of two way, either the company is located in an area that is predominantly black, or the hiring practices means that they are hiring no white people.
Whites have continually been hired only because they are white since the beginning of this country and yet, not once do you consider that or question their qualifications.
If you can find me a company who hires people only because they are white, I’ll stand shoulder to shoulder with you in condemning them, and I’ll even boycott them. That kind of practice is wrong.
Because what whites like you
Lol
Because what whites like you don't seem to understand is that we live facing racism every day. We have to navigate and survive by doing so. So after years and years of seeing racist behavior, we know racism when we see it.
The reason why you see racism so much is because you’re looking for it so much. The definition of racism has changed so much over the years that…now, racism is pretty much whatever a black person says it is. Give a black person a cross look? RACISM! Get into an argument with a black person for whatever reason? RACISM!
I mean yeah, I’m sure you’ll find racism under every rock of you make every rock racist.
Unfortunately many whites do racist stuff wthout thinking
EXACTLY!! That’s my point. Your “years and years of racism” has a lot to do with all the hate media you consume. The fact that you can make the claim above is exactly the problem.
The left and blacks, have changed the definition of racism so much that now, black people can claim racism when none may be present, they have actually went and said “well, whites are racist without even knowing it!” What??? For real? So what you are saying is, you can call ANYTHING racist and then say “well, it’s because you don’t know it”. Sorry, get out of here with that. YOU don’t get to assign feeling and motivations to others because it fits your world view.
A lot of this “racism” that you experience is likely self appointed..where a white person did something to you or another black person…and the first thing that was brought it is “it’s because they were black!”
Racism doesn't exist because I think everything is racist and it won't go away until whites such as yourself see that it is your responsbility to end the shit whites started
Racism is real, I’ve made no statement otherwise., but, a lot of the racism you encounter is likely your mislabeling everything as racist.
It won’t go away if black people keep inventing way ls to see racism in everything. Even if whites totally capitulated to everything the black community wants, you’d still say everything is racist because of “micro aggressions” and the like. Ending racism is going to take a change of hearts and minds, not from white people, but from blacks as well, to try and not see everything through the lense of face.
I'm out. I stayed up way too long.
Get some rest, good sleep is very important.
