Walmart vs. Whiteness

[1stNickD]

Actually, I do not hate white people, especially being one myself. I have always worked hard and played by the rules and am not a criminal. I would prefer equal treatment under law for everyone. If black people lost you as an ally, I would personally question if you truly were one to begin with.

Nope when I went to a required DEI training the speaker was a black person who twisted history and then railed and riled until every poc in the room was visibly shaking mad. Then he smirked quite proud of himself and continued on with his dog and pony show. At another required DEI meeting, a very light skinned Hispanic railed on and on about all of the ways she had been discriminated against. (A young woman already in an executive position at a financial institution) After the meeting a prominent female of color and a ranking official in our company literally said to her, in front of the whole group, "I didn't like you when I first saw you, but now that i know you are Hispanic I see you in a better light". And the fucking crowd appauded the overt racism. I haven't gone to another DEI training and I won't go to another, I'm done.

No I always wanted to help end racism in America, but what i have seen over the last 5 years makes me want to spit, and if you support BLM or the riots of 20 and 21 then you are part of the problem. A VP in my company didn't like the woman speaker because she thought she was European American. Well in a way she is, because Hispanics are of Spanish descent and what they did to the indigenous populations of south and central America was despicable. But the American wokesters don;t care about that because it doesn;t fit your agenda or your narratives. I've worked along side people of almost every religion and creed in my long life, and it was only recently that this rebirth of racial victimhood has raised its ugly head.

You can question all you like, I don;t care. The left can go slurp eggs as far as I am concerned anymore.

Walmart Inc. has launched a critical race theory training program that denounces the United States as a “white supremacy system” and teaches white, hourly wage employees that they are guilty of “white supremacy thinking” and “internalized racial superiority.”

According to a cache of internal documents I have obtained from a whistleblower, Walmart launched the program in 2018 in partnership with the Racial Equity Institute, a Greensboro, North Carolina, consulting firm that has worked extensively with universities, government agencies, and private corporations. The program is based on the core principles of critical race theory, including “intersectionality,” “internalized racial oppression,” “internalized racial inferiority,” and “white anti-racist development.” Since the program’s launch, Walmart has trained more than 1,000 employees and made the program mandatory for executives and recommended for hourly wage workers in Walmart stores. When reached for comment, Walmart confirmed that the company has “engaged REI for a number of training sessions since 2018” and has “found these sessions to be thought provoking and constructive.”

The program begins with the claim that the United States is a “white supremacy system,” designed by white Europeans “for the purpose of assigning and maintaining white skin access to power and privilege.” American history is presented as a long sequence of oppressions, from the “construction of a ‘white race’” by colonists in 1680 to President Obama’s stimulus legislation in 2009, “another race neutral act that has disproportionately benefited white people.” Consequently, the Walmart program argues, white Americans have been subjected to “racist conditioning” that indoctrinates them into “white supremacy,” or the view “that white people and the ideas, thoughts, beliefs, and actions of white people are superior to People of Color and their ideas, thoughts, beliefs, and actions.”

Following the principle that “diagnosis determines treatment,” the Walmart program seeks to create a psychological profile of whiteness that can then be treated through “white anti-racist development.” Whites, according to the trainers, are inherently guilty of “white privilege” and “internalized racial superiority,” the belief that “one’s comfort, wealth, privilege and success has been earned by merits and hard work” rather than through the benefits of systemic racism. Walmart’s program argues that this oppressive “white supremacy culture” can be summarized in a list of qualities including “individualism,” “objectivity,” “paternalism,” “defensiveness,” “power hoarding,” “right to comfort, “and “worship of the written word”—which all “promote white supremacy thinking” and “are damaging to both people of color and to white people.”

That black person didn't twist history, you simply have not been taught the complete history of this country. And if you're blaming BLM for riots instead of the unchecked police brutality and murder that made people feel they had no other choice but to riot, it is you who is the problem.

* Working hard
* Developing a sense of personal responsibility and Self reliance
* Getting a job
* Keeping a job
* Honoring your obligations
* Valuing education
* Loving America, the Constitution
* Respecting others, including the police
* Obeying our laws

Gosh, white folks have some pretty weird and wassist ideas. Talk about privilege!

Hope black folks don't find out about these 'secret' ideas - otherwise they may begin to improve their own lives, too.
Lol...

White folks have not done those things.

 

[OhPleaseJustQuit]

White folks have not done those things.

Is it satisfying being two-dimensional? You don't seem to be able to think or respond or live outside the box labeled "RACE" There is a whole gigantic world of stuff to think about other than race.

We get it. You hate white people and demand that white people not be allowed to hate back. That makes you a black supremacist.

When I first read this I thought of some white folks I have known, who outwardly followed your rules, but inwardly were a moral mess. This is about what you think people must do, not about what kind of person they are inside. I knew a law-abiding white man who was a church goer, family man, hard worker, etc. etc, who had the biggest stash of porn that you can imagine. I knew another white man who was a church elder, sang in the choir, pillar of the community - but he left his wife and 3 kids and ran off with another woman. I'm sure you know some folks like this yourself.

I am sure we've all heard of or personally known white officers of the law who are guilty of domestic violence. We have known hard-working, so called law abiding white citizens who drink too much beer and end up in a bar brawl. I knew of a white man who worked hard, claimed to be patriotic, was self reliant, etc. who not only ran with prostitutes but molested his own child. The man who went on a shooting rampage in Las Vegas was a wealthy white man who had always worked hard and followed the rules - until he decided to plan a mass shooting. Strict adherence to a set of rules does not automatically make you a good person or improve your life. We all have heard of white TV preachers who preach one thing and do something quite the opposite behind the scenes.

Then I have known black men who seriously followed everyone of your rules. They became highly educated and respected, by everyone but some white folks who still saw them as criminals. Henry Louis Gates, educated, hard working, professor was trying to get into his own house, when police saw him, assumed he was breaking in and tried to arrest him. He did everything right. He got educated, he obeyed the law, he was self reliant, but none of it was good enough to earn him respect.

There are sitting members of congress who have told stories about how they have been stopped from going into the Capitol because the police did not believe they had any business being there. Seen and immediately suspected of being criminals.

Yes, white folks do have some pretty weird ideas - they insist on other folks following their rules while many of them are morally corrupt and have tendencies towards violence and condemnation of everyone who is not like them.

And the white folks who first came to this land had some pretty weird ideas also - like they could just massacre the people who already lived here, steal their land, and then enslave people to do the hard work of building their country.

Gates was breaking into his house. He had locked himself out or something like that. Then he flipped out when confronted.

Any one in that situation, breaking into their own house, especially in the city, would have to consider that they would be approached by the police for the obvious act of breaking and entering.

Walmart is a large reason why America lost its economic base in the 80's and 90's. The owner is a piece of crap who married into his wealth, and has been screwing people over ever since. I haven't bought anything from that place in almost 40 years. If I need something and they are the only place who has it, I will live without it. I invite every other decent person on the planet to join me. Don't even walk into the place,

I cut them off from home deliveries. Now have instacart from Publix and Dollar Tree.

He is a RACIST.

In addition to being a RACIST, you are also a baldfaced LIAR, and not a very good one.

This retarded culture war is going to destroy this country

That black person didn't twist history, you simply have not been taught the complete history of this country. And if you're blaming BLM for riots instead of the unchecked police brutality and murder that made people feel they had no other choice but to riot, it is you who is the problem.

You weren't even there. You are no better than the asshole who stood in front of that room and twisted words and history until he had his selected crowd as full of hate as he could make them. YOU try to do the same shit here.

If you support those violent riots then you are ****. period. You don't have a clue how well history has been taught in this country, here is a hint, people existed before you were born, people knew history before you were born... In the 60s and 70s we were taught about the horrors of the slave ships and the mistreatment of slaves by owners. We were also taught about the hundreds of thousands of white people who died to free them. Lincoln was murdered because he freed the slaves, but your ilk even rips down statues of Lincoln, so for that I give you my middle finger straight into your face as rudely as you can possibly imagine that happening, not because you are black, but because you are an asshole.. If you have a beef with some southern good ole boys, take it up with them, but if you want a race war, and I think you do, there will be more push back than you could ever imagine.

Here is another hint I am glad G. Floyd is dead, very happy he is dead. I am also glad the bad cop is in prison. We used to call that a twofer... a sick violent piece of shit will never be able to rob, beat or sell heroin to kids again, and a bad cop is off the street and in prison, and the world is a better place because of it. In fact if the jelly fish Judge had kept Floyd in prison where he belonged he would still be alive today and sadly the bad cop would probably be out still doing bad things, But 98% of cops are good people and i thank God that they are willing to risk their lives to remove violent people from our midst.

You show more about your ignorance than you could ever possibly understand. I would call you stupid but I am trying to be nice.

Any one in that situation, breaking into their own house, especially in the city, would have to consider that they would be approached by the police for the obvious act of breaking and entering.

But is there a difference in the way black people in that situation are approached by police? And once he showed his ID, did they immediately leave? There are so many versions of this story available.

At best, it is an extremely weak example to support your position. If America was ONE TENTH as racist as many claim, you would have a long list of better examples than that.


At worst, it is an example of privileged black Professor, being a Karen, and Obama and him trying to bully the working class stiff who's greatest sin was not knowing his place.
