Zone1 Why Do Right Wing Whites Have Problems Figuring Out the Solution to Racism?

Thanks for sharing that. It's very sad to me that there are apparently many people who need matching skin color and matching political beliefs before they can call you friend. I thought the country was headed in that direction, but everything went off the rails over the last 10 years.

Both sides need to face facts. We both have problems like this preacher says to hid congregation, whites aren't the only problem with blacks some of it is their own fault. I enjoy seeing how many are on both sides are acting more responsible. Anytime we disagree the race card is thrown in our face or sometimes violently.

The biggest problem imo is race being exploited by politicians and organizations in order to gain money and power. They use TV and social media and divisive slogans to drive wedges between the people.

I somewhat agree, they couldn't control us if we were united. We are all Americans, well some of us anyway for now.
They want us divided.
 
I don’t think there are many people who demand same skin color to form friendships. I do think, however, it is difficult for me to be friends with someone who thinks I am either a moron, a white supremacist, and/or a threat to democracy simply because I voted for Trump.

YOu are right. I'd never conclude you were any of those things just looking at you.

Once you open your mouth, though, the issue is kind of settled.
 
We have had people asking blacks for solutions to racism but what was presented as problems were situations created by white racism. There are whites who know where the problem is and work to end the problem, however whites on the right denigrate and disrespect other members of their own race by calling them thngs like self hating and guilt riidden for trying to do their part to end racism. They do this because they believe that whites today are blamed for things they aren't doing. In their minds racism is over even as they practice the very racism they claim is over. Discussions about racism with the right turn into the slavery is over so what are you talking about load of disingenuous crap.

We aren't talking about slavery, we are talking about how racism is done now. Right now. Today, December 13, 2022 at 5:49 pm CST.

“In short, a large number of white Americans have become comfortable with as much racial inequality and segregation as a putatively nondiscriminatory polity and free market economy can produce. Hence, the reproduction and, on some dimensions, the worsening of racial inequalities. These circumstances are rendered culturally palatable by the new ideology of Laissez Faire Racism.” -Lawrence Bobo, James R. Kluegel, Ryan A. Smith - LAISSEZ FAIRE RACISM: The Crystallization of a ‘Kinder, Gentler’ Anti-Black Ideology
Rising out of the ashes of Jim Crow racism was an attitude of LaissezFaire racism. Laissez-Faire racism is sometimes described as the “kinder form of racism,” as if there is such a thing.

“Laissez-Faire Racism involves persistent negative stereotyping of African Americans, a tendency to blame blacks themselves for the black-white gap in socioeconomic standing, and resistance to meaningful policy efforts to ameliorate America’s racist social conditions and institutions.”

So why is it that part of the white community understands the problem and it's root cause, but members of the white community who hold a right wing view have such a hard time figuring it out?

What solutions do right wing whites have to solve their inability to do the work necessary to end white racism?
Most indications suggest that blacks are doing just fine.

Give it up

No one is buying your bullshit

Black people can be whatever they want

But they have to earn it
 
I am a non black negro.....so there
How can you be a non-black Negro?

Now if you said you were a non-black African American, that could be true. I worked with someone from Africa, and one of my neighbors is from Africa, and both are fair-skined with light hair.
 
Why do Black people whine about everything?

Is it because they are naturally assholes or is because the Liberals have brainwashed them to have a victim mentality?
Have you considered the very obvious option that YOU are an asshole?
 
I'm trying to figure out why MarathonMike's thread ''Why do some Left Wing Blacks perpetuate racial hatred?'' got locked, yet this thread ''Why Do Right Wing Whites Have Problems Figuring Out the Solution to Racism?'' is okay.

Can someone explain what they believe the logic might be in this choice of action?

There are different standards. I was called ”racist trash” in a Zone 1 thread by some leftist, and that violation of the rules was allowed to stand.
 
Yes.

Flac and Coyote have this entire sub-forum set up for IM2.

If you look at his profile, you will see the special welcome he has been given for bringing his race hatred here.

Well I dunno about flac. I've talked to him before, he seems rather fair. Though I do know that Coyote has praised and expressed gratitude for IM's continuing contributions here.

Anyway. Placing that aside, I was just wondering about the logic in it, given the almost identical question, except from opposing perspectives. And neither had supporting links either, so it can't be because of that.

How does one see a poster’s profile?

In America Blacks are held to a lower standard than whites

No logic to it

Thats just how it is

It all has to do with “equity.” If you can’t bring up the average of a certain group to the average of all Americans, you lower the standards. We have seen this will race-based Affirmative Action in college admissions.

Someone remarked it’s the same thing with socialism. You can’t bring the lower class uo to the middle class, so you bring the middle class down. As Biden said, “Americans have to lower their expectations.”

I‘ve done this in my own life as the Dems keep spending, thus increasing inflation and causing the stock market to drop. Whereas I used to go on luxury cruises populated by professionals, I now go on “mainstream” cruises with the working class, since my investments have dropped by a third and I am watching my outflow. More “equity.”
