~S~

You fight hatred with facts and unfortunately for many here, they want to claim that presenting facts is hate.

 

[IM2]

"Accounting for race" is establishing and producing a racial hierarchy, period.

America has been accounting for race from the beginning. In order to fix the damage caused by that accounting for race must be done.

What Is Racism?​

BLM is....

No, BLM is multiracial.

What Is Racism?​

CRT is...

No, CRT explains how racism works in the American system.

 

[IM2]

Racism is a fallacy that makes CNN and MSNBC a lot of money.

It's also a boogieman that Democrats use to win elections.

No, racism is a reality we see in this forum by right wingers every day.

 

[IM2]

Racism is denying someone anything if his/her abilities are better than someone of a different background. It is not that simple but we have made something that could be one page into an encyclopedia.

That's not racism.

The idea that I find someone disgusting based entirely on their melanin content is purely narcissism on your part, commie boi. I find white commies just as disgusting, probably more so.

 

[IM2]

What is racism? You, BLM, CRT...

Why not let's forget about race as a criteria at all? How about lets just say "people are people, so why should it be, that you and I should get along so Awfully?"

Lol! I am no racist, nor as BLM or CRT. Whites made race a criteria and that crteria has allowed whites to run their mouths off about how others they denied because whites made race the most important crteria failed. So damage from race exists that must be fixed before we stop considering race.

Wrong. Racism is what you post every day. Like Morgan Freeman said, "If you want to end racism, stop talking about it."

 

[IM2]

The idea that I find someone disgusting based entirely on their melanin content is purely narcissism on your part, commie boi. I find white commies just as disgusting, probably more so.

No, your consistent racist comments have been primarily about blacks. I have not seen you attacking racism coming from whites. Understand this son, I've lived 60 years as a black person. I have seen the many ways racism manifests itself, so all your blathering about commies doesn't fool me. You're more of a "commie" than I am nabisco.

 

[IM2]

Only to those with white fragility unable to face the truth blacks tell about our personal experience in this country.

Of course you see racism everywhere. You're dumb as a hammer and like most hammers, everything looks like a nail to you.

You can't fix racism with racism......Period.

Defining Racism Beyond its Dictionary Meaning​

By Nicki Lisa Cole, Ph.D.​

Updated July 14, 2019

Racism refers to a variety of practices, beliefs, social relations, and phenomena that work to reproduce a racial hierarchy and social structure that yield superiority, power, and privilege for some, and discrimination and oppression for others. It can take several forms, including representational, ideological, discursive, interactional, institutional, structural, and systemic.

Racism exists when ideas and assumptions about racial categories are used to justify and reproduce a racial hierarchy and racially structured society that unjustly limits access to resources, rights, and privileges on the basis of race. Racism also occurs when this kind of unjust social structure is produced by the failure to account for race and its historical and contemporary roles in society.

Contrary to a dictionary definition, racism, as defined based on social science research and theory, is about much more than race-based prejudice—it exists when an imbalance in power and social status is generated by how we understand and act upon race.

The Social Science Definition of Racism

Racism is a system of power in which some are prevented from accessing rights and resources on the basis of race while others are given privileges.

So lets look at some truths.

People will say that everybody is racist or can have racist thoughts. This comment has been used by some to dissmiss the continuing practice of racism by law and policy in America. So while everybody can have racist thoughts not everybody codified such thought into law and policy. Only one group did that, whites. Now is this racist or truth? To say this does not mean all whites are blamed for this, but we have allowed some low lifes to hijack the conversation and they have conflated any comment reflecting upon racism into a racial attack on everybody white who has ever lived.

When the topic of race is presented we get the not all whites comment being hollered generally from the right. The problem with that diversion is that we do not have the name of every white person responsible for acts of racism or the implementation of racist law or policy by federal, state and local governments, courts or private businesses. While all whites have not practiced racism, the system was created to provide racial preference to all whites. While all whites are not racists, there is a subculture in the white community that is.

This is reality. Now you can name all the black racists you want but there ain't no black Paul Gosars, Margaret Greenes, Madison Cawthorns or Kris Kobachs. You do not see one member of the Nation of Islam making laws. There was no member of the NBPP who served as Obamas top advisor.

So let's be real about this and face the truth.

What is racism?

According to sniveling little c-unts like you, everything is racism.

What Is Racism?​

BLM is....

"#BlackLivesMatter was founded in 2013 in response to the acquittal of Trayvon Martin’s murderer. Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation, Inc. is a global organization in the US, UK, and Canada, whose mission is to eradicate white supremacy and build local power to intervene in violence inflicted on Black communities by the state and vigilantes. By combating and countering acts of violence, creating space for Black imagination and innovation, and centering Black joy, we are winning immediate improvements in our lives."

You could have Googled this yourself.

What Is Racism?​

CRT is...

The less palatable and unvarnished truth of the origins of white racism in America and how the past continues to influence race relations today.

 

[NewsVine_Mariyam]

Racism is boring.

Yet here you are using the avatar of a innocent dead young black child to try to prop yourself up as someone of virtue or value.

All while you do nothing but talk shit about black people.

What Is Racism?​

It’s what our country needs again….BIG TIME!
Racism from all sides, full blown segregation of all races and classes….Time to untangle and unwind this multiculturalism that is destroying us from the inside out.

As much as I love Depeche Mode, it's not that simple because laws have been made saying some people are better than others due to nothing more than the race they happened to be born inro. And far too many of them act as if that simple act is a major achievement.
