There is a lot of racists in south LA who would never speak out on it. It is status quo. It is how they were raised or some have been peer pressured into it by their friends. I don’t have a problem calling it out.

it could be worse. I could be someone like you whose mind is so warped that you are unable to accept that other people have had different experiences than you. That would really suck tbt.

I have seen African Americans vilify white sorority girls for simply repeating rap lyrics. Once again you can have it both ways. The word without a hard R has been used for decades by blacks and whites alike as a slang term. Only in the last 5 years has this become an issue with woke culture.

Wrong. If someone in my family calls me a dumbass I will probably laugh it off. If someone who I know dislikes me calls me a dumbass I may react differently.

the source and intent Of the word is very important.

I’m sure when his heroes say something derogatory about white people he calls them out too.

Just kidding, he already admitted to not caring about racism itt. Racism isn’t the problem, it’s only how it affects him. Call a Mexican he doesn’t know a derogatory term? Doesn’t matter, doesn’t hurt him.

You’re the one that said you only care when it affects you. Don’t get made at me that you don’t care about racism, only yourself.

But, for real, I’m sorry your parents allowed you to be around such trash growing up.

if rioting, looting, tearing up private and federal property, murdering innocent citizens and police officers in cold blood to stand for a false narrative not backed by any data is “the right side of history” - Solidly mark me down on the other side.

Here’s one of your leaders justifying the looting and destruction in Chicago Sunday night:

quote:

custody. “I don’t care if someone decides to loot a Gucci or a Macy’s or a Nike store, because that makes sure that person eats,” Ariel Atkins, a BLM organizer, said. “That makes sure that person has clothes.” ... Black Lives Matter Chicago organized the rally after overnight unrest throughout the city, with police saying that more than 100 individuals were taken into custody for a variety of offenses, including looting. “That is reparations,” Atkins said. “Anything they wanted to take, they can take it because these businesses have insurance.”

I am in favor of the police beating up the ones who are destroying property in Portland. I don’t support any rioting.

When you are Independent like me you can be both for equality and against destruction of property. Your political party won’t allow to use common sense judgments will it?

Sad.

Can you quantify what proportion of the U.S. disagrees with human equality?

No I cannot. no one can. You can’t either.

we only have our own experiences. My experience will differ From yours. I don’t know but a very small portion of the US population.

From what I have seen there is an incredible amount of racism.

So you get to generalize about large swaths of the population that you know nothing about and you think that isn't prejudice like the people you are criticizing allegedly do?

I mean, any amount is bad, but come on.

And are you saying you've seen an incredible amount of systemic racism? Because outside of Affirmative Action" there isn't any that I've seen.

Not that you care, but I’m registered and vote as an Independent

And speaking of common sense and political sides:

one side rioted, looted, and tried to tear up federal property. one side didn't.

one side impeached a sitting president, because ??? i don't even know. one side didn't.

one side dragged a SCOTUS pick in front a committee to accuse him of rape 30 years ago. one side didn't.

one side has a puppet of a candidate who didn't even win the primaries. one side didn't.

one side is advocating for defunding / abolishing / shifting funds from police departments. one side hasn't.

Should I continue or would you like to post a rebuttal with more disingenuous bullshite?
