Shining a Light Concert

It's on a few channels tonight (e.i. A&E, History) and on the radio.
It's meant to be a "conversation about race" thing. Race is being promoted as the biggest issue this country faces. It looks like they'll be interviewing the community where that white guy killed all those black people with a flag.
This really grinds my gears. That an agenda can be pushed this way to make people feel important and relevant using a topic that's drivin not by fact but emotion and more ironically ratings.
Do people really buy into this crap? I work with minorities. I've had minority superiors. I have minority friends. A few are close enough to where we can discuss this type of stuff. And even they think it's bullshite. It bothers me how easily people are manipulated. Not talking black or white. Mostly young and dumb who have this odd desire to always feel important, special, and hip. The next 15 years will be interesting as these idiots enter the real world and have their own bills, offspring, etc.
And to end....
Dear diary.

that's just an example of how pervasive institutional racism is

not dumb
they're just not poisoned by the institutions that control the wrong side of history
you only see them as "dumb" because your vision is impaired just like the minorities you referenced

History Channel has gone so downhill over the past 10 years, it is shocking. They show Pawn Stars 90% of the time, and now play a concert trying to hype blacks up about racism that doesn't even exist. I'd rather watch Bravo. At least they have some good looking chicks.
For now, I'll stick to twerking videos only

I meant ignorant/impressionable. "Young and dumb" was a cliche I utilized.

I wonder if they'll be talking about the black man who killed the two white reporters on live tv?

It's insulting that they even still call themselves the History Channel. They have marathons about hunting fricking Bigfoot

Just ignore it. We're post-racial now that Obama has been elected.
I actually don't know what the hell this is.

So the same channel that broke the aliens building the pyramids story is now going to expose all the institutional racism in this country?
Kinda makes sense really.

You're better when you don't troll and just go with funny sarcasm.
