I’d say it’s been a black person walking through southside of Chicago. How many people get shot doing that?

All I keep hearing is that 'the struggle' is black people having to live around each other.

Being made to work and wear a tie is modern day lynching?

And there’s the problem. Most job interviewers view applicants equally, not by some stupid demographic criteria.

In this example the applicant is openly admitting he views people differently based on skin color.

Black fragility.


It was pretty funny when the “mediocre white man” motto attempted to gain traction hahahhaha if there is one demo who struggles to compete on merit it’s the demo that tried to coin this phrase as truth hahhahahaha


I’ve been on two decades worth of interview teams and if anything blacks are hired after ranking lower that qualified candidates of other races BECAUSE they are black.

I’ve seen some illegal sht over the years at a major corporation. Straight up race and gender based hiring over higher scores.

How did some in the black community come around to rationalizing the positives of Jim Crow?

These ungrateful punts are complaining while getting at least 6 figures to play dress up and pretend. It's like they have no concept of reality. Be grateful you have a pretty sweet gig compared to the real world. And make the most of it.

If you have a skillset and a track record that says you can make my company money, I’m not going to care if your skin is purple and green striped.

It’s weird how much some black people fail to acknowledge or accept that some things are just regular old hurdles of the universal human experience.

No, EVERYTHING is racial!

Tough to get most jobs when you perpetually smell like weed.
