Not sure why you're being downvoted to shite when the article holds somewhat of an opinion similar to that of the board- that progressive coddling hinders racial progress rather than helps it.

Anyway, the article is alot of sociological bullshite with made-up terms but her point that whites mostly avoid being lumped together by race with their criminal underlings whereas blacks do not (see any "culcha" thread on the OT) is true.

However, she chooses to ignore some reasons. Blacks vote monolithically, and as such are treated monolithically. Perhaps another sin of the white progressive. Also, blacks are disproportionately grouped in with their criminal underbelly because it's somewhat of a stereotype: blacks commit a disproportionate amount of crime.

It's worth discussing why that is, but that doesn't take away from that fact. It also doesn't justify it. No one should be assumed to be of a certain "disposition" because of their race, at least not in America.

If you look for racists- you can find them anywhere. If you look for people of goodwill- you will find them everywhere. Which you look for is a personal DECISION.

She absolutely did, or at least the perosn the article is about did.

An issue with the discussion is, from a white person, it's almost impossible to initiate any frame point with sounding like a colossal prick.

BHP your dad must have been a wise and caring man. You learned well from him. He would be proud of you. You have your head screwed on straight sir! I always enjoy reading your posts!!

You do realize that the author is not on your side, right?

Weve been saying this about white progressives for years. They have been preaching to blacks that they are helpless victims for years. Those same people know 0 normal black people.

It is hilarious she uses a generalized stereotype to say that the group she’s generalizing isn’t generalized.

Though, seriously doubt she, nor most of the leftist acolytes able to see the logic trap here.

I would like your dad.

I’ve tried for years for him to answer that very question.


I’ve all but given up hope.
