Thank you - that’s exactly it. Unfortunately, it seems that if someone fails to blame past racism for a higher poverty or crime rate among blacks, that person is a racist.
And a beautiful passage from Psalms.
The majority of your comments and threads are
about one minority, and it is
always negative comments. Why is that?
Only ONE minority.
You go off because you think there are too many black people in the ads you see (there are also more Asians, but no angst from you).
You go on and on about people hiring too many unqualified blacks and admitting unqualified black students over better qualified whites yet you have no problem with those institutions admitting less qualified legacy admissions (almost always white) who actually take a larger number of admission slots away from more qualified students than blacks do.
When a top notch black student was excepted by every single Ivy League school, instead congratulating the achievement you belittled it, and questioned why the article didn’t mention her grades (even though no articles on similar acceptances mentioned grades either.)
You have a meltdown if people capitalize “black” but don’t capitalize “white”. You are enraged because a book store has “too many” black history books or books by black authors.
You frequently downplay the effects of Jim Crowe on blacks and relegate it to the distant past
despite the fact that there are many still alive who lived it.
You resent that, probably for the first time, blacks participated in DC’s 4th of July in excess of their proportion of the population.
You go on about how blacks commit more crimes and are overrepresented in prison, ignoring the many reasons they are more likely to get prison time than whites committing the same crime.
You bring up AA yet fail to note the people that benefited most were white women like you and I.
You talk about the problem of antisemtism while also denying racism is also a problem.
Why is it only ever about one race?
You can call me what ever suits you, but I have defended the Jewish people in arguments multiple times and pointed out what Jews did for the Civil Rights movement when that was argued.
Have you ever spoken up for or defended a black person? When that horrible Synagogue mass shooting took place at the Tree of Life, I didn't jump up and start bitching about how blacks suffered more and too much attention is being paid to Jews. Horrible events are horrible events, and people suffer trauma, persecution, and violence. You don't know what anyone has been through when you make those blanket statements. Did blacks in California suffer as much as Jews in the Holocaust? Of course not, but why is such a comparison even needed if not to
diminish one peoples experiences? And that is what you keep doing. It isn't just a one-offer.
