calling ****** just a word doesn't cut it, if I hear any soldier using the word the punishment they're going to gte will not be befitting of something thats a word. If I have one soldier in my unit who uses that word and I react like you moral in that entire unit could go down.
This sounds like a personal problem to me. You still aren't grasping something really basic.
YOU have the power to control the use of that word in your unit. YOU, a black man, who 60 years ago wouldn't have been supervising ANYTHING in the U.S. military, because 60 years ago, there were zero sergeants or NCOs or officers in the U.S. Army.
What does an ignorant piece of Georgia white trash control, in comparison to you?
A sign. A probably homemade wooden sign that cost less than $20. This guy doesn't have money, or influence, or social power. He's a guy who owns a tiny little backwoods oyster bar.
And you still don't get what this story really means. The actual meaning of this story is that the balance of power has completely shifted. You, Flaylo, have significantly more control, both over yourself and other people, than this guy does.
That's the real story here, not a word on a sign.
I'm sorry you missed it.
See, when I see racists ranting here in this forum on the internet, what I see is just how powerless they have become.
This is the only place where they can get an audience. This is the only place where people will actually read their bullshit and feel comfortable enough in their anonymity to approve of it. This is the only place where these guys feel like they aren't total losers, on every possible level. This is the only place where they can say this stuff (hidden comfortably behind an anonymous username) -- without having, as High Gravity so accurately puts it-- the taste slapped out of their mouth, not only by black folks, but by white folks, governmental agencies, work supervisors, and their neighbors.
Every thread that a racist posts in this forum is actually a declaration that they've already lost the war. And, they know it, which is why they're so hate-filled and hysterical.
They have zero power to remake the world in the way it used to exist, and every year, their power diminishes. That's where the rage comes from---their complete and total impotence.
People like William Joyce, in the real world, cower away from teenagers on a train, because they're scared little monkeys with no power who lack the skills to survive in a modern world. That's who these racists really are.
Every post that William Joyce makes is a declaration of his own emasculation. Ditto his comrades in impotence.
You don't have to let them get to you. You can see signs like this as an admission of defeat, laugh about it, and move on.
