It's not because I don't still view it as a bullshit issue invented by leftist apparatchiks, at least in the context they have used to coin it.
However I have witnessed and I have to acknowledge that black people do get scrutinized by police more heavily. Yes there are reasons for that, but the fact remains. I've seen blacks surrounded by cops in rich liberal white neighborhoods for "walking while black". I have seen blacks yanked out of cars and searched under circumstances that white people would have gotten out of. I've seen blacks incarcerated for petty crimes for years, for shit I got away with, and I had the ability to read their records. I met more than a few Trustee's that got fucked really hard in court and I won't even pretend that it wasn't because they were black.
The problem is, as Zo points out to in the video is that white people (who aren't retarded) immediately take a defensive posture because we aren't guilty of anything as individuals. At least not unless you're a democrat DA and seek to punish blacks more than rich whites. Most of us have nothing to feel guilty about, most of us were just as disgusted about what happened to George Floyd as the bed wetters pretended to be and black people were. The man was murdered, on video, by a cop who was immediately fired but not arrested. I don't care what Floyd's history is, I don't care if he fought like Tyson to resist arrest, once he was cuffed he was neutralized and kneeling on his back and neck is contradictory to everything I learned in regards to making arrests.
Making an arrest is a serious power, any civilian can do it actually. Do it in an improper way, without cause and you're going to wish you were dead by the time the system is done with you. Police are expected to live up to higher standards because they have a greater power to detain and investigate that the public and commissioned security does not. Anyway I digress..
I can acknowledge that black people get the shit end of the stick a lot, but that makes me guilty of nothing. My ancestors were not here before 1865 that I know of, and if any of them were they weren't slave owners. I don't look at it as a matter of "privilege" but a matter of oppression, but on the other hand, black people (usually liberals) are sometimes pushed ahead of everyone else, regardless of merit, but because of race alone, and that is some serious bullshit there also.
