So you're saying the left is such great manipulators that they rigged historical numbers for decades on everything from housing discrimination to employment?
No, but there is more than one factor involved in the troubles of the black community in the USA other than simplistic fall backs to racism every time the subject comes up.
Great post but I have to disagree with a lot of the assertive statements made in this post. Think about the Military Industrial complex when compared to Systematic racism. No one would call something that involved govt laws, rules targeting etc as being "simplistic" as you did here.
Senator Daniel Patric Moynahan long ago addressed the causes of poverty in the black community fromt he disintegration of the black family, and much of that caused by federal welfare programs that incentivize broken families.
Sure! Single mothers get assistance, I totally agree. But assistance is not an inventive to not have a family. The notion that someone would choose welfare over a stable family structure on its face is ridiculous.
Then there is the contrasting success of many other racial/ethnic groups from Asia like Dravidians and Chinese immigrants. The success of these other racial/ethnic groups raises the question of why American Born English Speaking Blacks are having so much racial discrimination directed at them, but other blacks from Africa and the UK are having much greater success. Why is 'systemic racism' primarily affecting only native born blacks? That doesnt sound like the problem is merely racism, but something endemic to the American black community.
Environment and systematic racism and past experiences. It's a good point to compare Africans with AA'S tho. Africans who come here sometimes come from areas that almost wherever they are in America is better with more hopes at opportunity. Which is funny because blacks here see our Areas as shit and also no hope of opportunity like the Africans who left for the same reasons. American dream and all that.
And yet American Blacks REFUSE to even consider these things as contributing factors. No, the Grievance Industry that leads the Black Community has to focus all their problems on the Ebil ******, constantly cooking up new ways to bring the Black Man down, despite the plain historical fact that whites in America bled and died to liberate blacks from slavery and then fought to break down Jim Crow.
Do we have racial discrimination in America, of course we do, and we always will because ethnic difference naturally cause people to prefer to be and deal with their own kind but MOST RACISM TODAY IS IN THE BLACK COMMUNITY, NOT FROM WHITES.
Asserting something doesn't make it true. Blacks consider all of the possibilities you've laid out. Many will agree with you. But just saying there is some Grievance "Industry" always seek to portray the people with grievances don't reaaaallly have a problem, they are just complaining for other reasons than what they say and you know the REAL story. In other words how can you address something in a fair way that consider to be someone playing a game? You cant.
So racism? Complaints of racism? Jail time? Home loans? Education?....psssh. All that ain't real because.....it's an "Industry"! Viola. Change the subject and don't deal.
Also your last assertive statement is funny as well because in order for this statement to be true is to have a racism-ometer of some sort. Either that or to pretend that a black dude not liking white people is the same as the American System not liking or targeting or denying or being indifferent to blacks.
There's a huge difference in what were talking about. Your black racism is some guy or guys. What I'm talking about is shit that effects entire communities and populations. Not you feeling uncomfortable around a dude that looks like Debo.
