I obviously mean that people blame the algorithms for showing you random people doing shite to make you angry. I’m saying that this is just straight up connected to my friends on Facebook sharing shite.


Again that’s how algorithms work…your friend group is already taking into consideration

Probably, until 2008, I suspected race relations had come to a peaceful settling place.

Naivete. Silly me.

I now believe that I will not ever see racism cease. Pure tribalism.

My wife worked with a woman who seemed reasonably tolerant of all racism but during a conversation, she said she couldn't find a doctor. Why not, you may ask? She only wanted to be treated by a black doctor, period.

She is black and does not trust white doctors but that statement made me assess my own preferences. It made me ask myself, would I go to a non-white health provider.

It's isn't just social media.

MSM started all of this.

Many people in this country are addicted to hate and they don't even know it. People today, most of don't even care about the facts or truth. They don't even have the attention span to find the truth. They just want another 15 sec clip to feed their outrage.

You can't change it so it's best to avoid it if at all possible.

Exactly.

Not just race. It is mainly women involved in the insanity. Mostly African American but white too. Women have gone insane.

How many actually racist white people have you met and not in your imagination? I can assure you as someone who has traveled to just about every part of the World that I have met far more racist Hispanics and Asians towards black Americans than white people. Quite frankly, black Americans have brought 99.9% of it on themselves by their actions

Reposting shite mindlessly on social media and believing that shite are two different things. Most people are just retarded.

I remember the Dallas and Baton Rouge police officer shootings. Obama just pouring gas on the fire of race relations during that time. Trump gets a lot of heat, but I put part of the blame on Obama for those police shootings. He had an opportunity to bring people together and he made it a point to divide everyone for political benefit. His demonizing of white people and police set us back decades. He missed a golden opportunity to unite and instead was the Great Divider.

You could just get off social media entirely and then you don’t have to be pissed all the time.

Seriously. Give it a try.

I think the biggest difference is, in general, racism is condemned in white communities.

It's almost celebrated in black communities.

I would disagree… I understand this line of thinking if you only know Black people from what your algorithm presents to you… but the same could be said on the other side

this is not a person who's mind you can change or reach common ground with. his mind is made up.

most white people are racist. only a handful of black people are racists, which is white people's fault. he grew up in it, served with it, and lives it. he's right, you're wrong.

I think it's mostly condemned in white communities, but like you said there are outliers.

I tend to agree with you here. I don't think it's celebrated so much as maybe it's condemned a little less in black communities, but I get where that comes from.

Well, and a racist white person will just avoid black people. Racist black people will attack white people.

As someone who affiliated with progressive leftists much of my life, I would argue that mainly broken people are the ones you are seeing agree with the media narrative.

There are plenty of white people I knew personally, was friends with, had in my home, that revealed themselves to be absolute demons the past 5-10 years. Same for some black people I know as well. The only thing the most hateful of those had in common (from all races), was who they supported politically, and what mainstream news and/or social media they followed.

When someone reveals themselves to you in this way, you should see it as an opportunity to remove them from you circle and move on with life. You have nothing to gain by engaging them. They will literally destroy every good relationship for their cause.

The people you know is not an appropriate sample to come to your conclusion.

I agree the number is more than it should be.
