re: Probably already asked, but is there any backstory to the Ole Miss racism dorm incident?

“Racism” will always be around as long as it is lucrative.

I get your point and agree that it is currently incentivized.

Digging deeper though, what is now termed “racism” will be around in some fashion until we all look the same and have the same culture.

It is a facet of human behavior. Similar culture and race (the extended family unit) are what tens of thousands of generations of our ancestors trusted and needed to survive. Strangers were generally dangerous and not to be trusted. Writing “END RACISM” in end zones does not unspool our wiring.

I refuse to be moved by this story when a black man literally murders a white girl on a train for no reason other than being white and said ‘i got that white biatch’ and none of you race baiting grifters even batted an eye.

They'll gather a few "high profile" cases, which are really just blown out of proportion, then they'll make the argument that it's a systemic problem across America and the only way to address is through more forced DEI initiatives and programs.

Is racism real? Of course. But, if they really want to end racism, they will have to confront the actual cause of racism, and that will require looking in the mirror.

What am I talking about? Well, I’ll give an example.

My wife grew up during the 80s and early 90s in a suburb of Birmingham called Center Point. At that time Center Point was a primarily White suburb. It was clean, safe, upscale place comprised of middle to upper-middle class families. Center Point was thriving, a great place to live and raise a family.

Then demographics started to shift. And with that shift came the drugs and the crime that invariably follow. White families, my wife’s included, began moving out as the value of their property began to crater. The more the demographic scale tipped from white to black, the worse Center Point became. The shopping centers, restaurants, and movie theaters closed. The schools that had been among the best in Alabama now saw gang fights and class disturbances daily. Drive-by shootings became common. In the span of just one decade, Center Point had completely transformed from an upscale suburban town into a crime-ridden shithole.

Yesterday, for the first time in a long time, we had to drive through Center Point and saw how far it’s sunk from it’s heyday in the 80s and early 90s. We remember what it once was and see what it’s become now.

Racism isn’t born of “ignorance” or even hate. It’s born from observation and pattern recognition. And until that pattern is broken, racism will never die.

And the only ones who can break that pattern are the black people themselves.

I’m sorry, but that’s the truth that no one wants to admit.

This reminds me of a national geographic documentary

The monkeys downstairs called the monkey police on the monkeys upstairs. The monkeys from upstairs came downstairs and made noises. The downstair monkeys spread the news to the other monkeys. Now all of the monkeys are making noises.

Racism is a word that is made up to kill off perceptions made by one race towards another, especially if negative.

Classism is the word people need to start using. The majority of people of all races can interact on a daily basis and not think twice. People who cannot act within societal norms such as (but not limited to):

Walking into stores talking loudly on cell phones with speaker on.

Wearing decent clothes in public and ensuring that modesty is upheld

Smoking illegal substances in public places

Attending a school with full plans to learn and respect elders

Driving cars and motorcycles and bikes that are not loud and disturb others

Just to name a few. Any color person who commits the above on a regular basis is a problematic nuisance. I am sure, however, these issues are not evenly spread out across all races.

This is a matter of do you have class or not. Plain and simple. I have a problem with anyone who does those things whether they’re young or old or white or black or Vietnamese or Indian, etc.

Karmelo Anthony was able to stay in school and graduate with his class after stabbing Austin Metcalf to death This girl made a joke and got thrown out immediately.

It is apparently more verboten to hurt someone's feelings than to murder a white

Why do people quote things without checking on whether the things they are quoting are true?

Karmelo Anthony was not able to stay in school. He did not graduate with his class.

He was expelled from his high school and never returned to campus after the stabbing.

He was prohibited from attending school events and was barred from participating in any senior graduation activities with his class.

I'm guessing these girls are too young to even know about the stereotype.

If she’s from the Midwest she has not been exposed to it…especially when growing up in the Hussein Obama woke era. That said, I kept my damn mouth shut for almost the entire first year in Starkville. The only thing I joined in on was making fun of a NY kid. She would’ve been wise to approach her first semester in the same manner.

She’ll probably end up at Marquette and get a better education there. I suspect we’re going to see more of this woke/fake minority victimhood bullshite over the next 6 years. I’m thankful our household is more or less insulated from the shite.
