Therein lies the rub....you believe that you are entitled to something special and given special treatment when we are all the same, bleed the same and want what is best for all of us and skin tint doesn't matter.
I believe I am entitled to the exact same thing as your white ass has had which did not and is not happening no matter how much whites like you try gaslighting people. That is not asking for anything extra or special. You talk all that we are the same bullshit. But we all haven't been treated the same and skin tint did and continues to matter. So take that weak argument to somebody like Avery Jahrman.
Girl, pleaaaase, I have seen blacks get special consideration that didn't do shit with it and I have seen blacks that didn't believe that they were "handicapped" by the tint of their skin and their true talent bore itself out. Some of which were a mentor to me and anyone else that wanted to benefit from them in the electro-mechanical field. They EARNED the respect of their peers and it didn't have a ******* thing to do with their "color". You earn your way in this world because of what you bring to the table. No one has ever given me diddly squat...I have had to prove myself worthy of a position when the cuts came via my knowledge of the job and my ability to repair equipment in a timely manner without taking shortcuts. I had to either "sink or swim". I certainly didn't nor could I count on being saved because of my skin color. You use your skin tint as a crutch and a fail safe measure when you can't cut it. Rise above it already......no company is going to cut loose someone that has incredible skills. The color of money is "green", it isn't black and it isn't white......capiche'?
I'm a man son. And I don't listen to whites who have been given everything by the government who try to ell me how to do things. Your skin color has saved your ass for your entire life.
I've done better than you. I have proven myself with distinction in the profession I chose for over 30 years. So f--- you and f--- your attitude that allows you to think you can lecture me about rising above something your a-- wouldn't have and something your a-- has never faced...….capiche?
"I'm a man son"
What exactly is a "man son"?
"And I don't listen to whites who have been given everything by the government"
I have never worked for "da gubermint".......not ever.
"Your skin color has saved your ass for your entire life"
Do tell? One either produces and proves him or herself worthy of a job or they are let loose for those that can do a better job. Skin tint plays no factor in the equation.
"I've done better than you. I have proven myself with distinction in the profession I chose for over 30 years"
If true, then what are you bitching about? If you have done "better" than me? Good for you....you have a talent that rates that and I certainly have no qualms about it nor do I resent that fact.
"So f--- you and f--- your attitude that allows you to think you can lecture me about rising above something your a-- wouldn't have and something your a-- has never faced...….capiche?"
But yet you don't see me using the tint of my skin as a crutch nor do I blame it for a lack of success or the reason as tom why I have succeeded ....unlike you do.My skills stand on their own merits so either I am an asset or a liability. You seem to believe that those of a darker skin tint should be given a pass for a lack of skill and ability because of conceived "slights" in the past. I have too much pride to ever settle for tokenism....but not those of your ilk and that is a sad commentary.
