That's what I would expect from you, onmymedical grind. You're always eager to blame discrimination against black people as being the cause of every problem that the black community has. But let someone mention the FACT that black people have never achieved on the same level as white people in the history of mankind, and your only (predictable) response is to play the race card.
How can it all be about white privilege, when blacks have never achieved on the same level with whites? You're trying to make white people a) responsible for all of the black community's ills, and 2) also responsible for guaranteeing that blacks, as a group, will henceforth achieve at the same level as whites, even though that has heretofore never, ever happened. Anywhere. That's more than a little ridiculous, wouldn't you say?
Like I said earlier, we should all fight for equal opportunity. But guaranteeing equal results? That's what this is really all about, and that's preposterous. The only way to ensure equal results is to ignore achievement, and that's simply wrong.
That's probably where we're headed, though.

Quote ONE SINGLE post of mine where I have ever done this. Just one. I have thousands to choose from.
Either you suck at reading, or you are confusing me for someone else. I have not ONCE blamed discrimination for every problem faced by blacks today. And if so, show me. I'll wait.

One post of mine where I have ever advocated for any of this stuff. Just one. I'll wait.

You should read Guns, Germs, and Steel.

Yeah, there's a reason for this
Half a millennia of Europeans dictating the social and economic climate in Africa had a pretty significant impact of the history of its natives.
