re: Newspapers drop office cartoon 'Dilbert' over creator's racial remarks

quote:

---

This is literally the definition of racism. It’s bad if a black person says this about white people; it’s bad if a white person says this about black people.

---

It's bad if a black person uses violence against a white person. It's bad if a white person uses violence against a black person.

Only one of those is happening

which leads to the justification of what Scott Adams explains

and it obviously is not racist to describe the truth

quote:

---

So I ask you, doctor, do you live in a dangerous black neighborhood or did you also follow Scott's advice and get away from that?

---

No, Scott’s advice is to avoid black people. Not avoid poor, dangerous neighborhoods. That isn’t a minor distinction. I’m just going by the quote in the OP. Would you rather live in a poor trailer park surrounded by white people, or one of the nice neighborhoods in Montgomery County, PG County, etc where your neighbor is more likely to be black?

t's bad if a black person uses violence against a white person. It's bad if a white person uses violence against a black person. Only one of those is happening

Again, if you are going to use the black on white crime rate to justify why you should avoid ever interacting with black people as a general policy, then you are racist. Not sure why you don’t just own it. This is the PB, you won’t get kicked out for this.

He is being taken out of context.

Watch today's cast, the whole thing and more will be made clear. He is trying to make things better for blacks.

Here is today's cast.

I think he'll end up walking the comment back


No he won't. This is part of an act to demonstrate how destructive listening to mainstream media can be.

Notice how he tied in Rasmussen polls and Don Lemon comments about white neighborhoods.

---

I can appreciate that, but if he was expecting subtlety and nuance to go over in today's social media world, he's quickly learning just how wrong he was. He's being excoriated on twitter, et al right now. He's a public figure. I predict he walks the commnet back

so you are saying there is no difference to consider in this regard?

Please explain.

I don't think so. This was no accident.

In today's cast he talked about the cancellations today and expects much more this week.

He flat out said his income will be halved.

He isn't doing anything anti-black but the only way you would know is to listen to the whole thing and not take it out of context like the media is doing.

Even if what he said is racist. It's good advice.

You are being a clown.

That one statement in a vacuum is not the proper way to live. We can agree on that. However, he was made his statements in response to a poll saying that 47% ish of black peoples said that it is NOT okay to be white.

Now let’s start over and honestly answer where the racism is.

Having said all of that, I cannot wait to retire. I want to get away from all people equally .

quote:

---

Did he say that the white race is superior to the black race? If he didn't then it's not "racism". People have forgotten what the word itself even means

---

You're confusing racism with white supremacists. I don't blame you since the media has distorted both terms over the years. A white supremacists thinks they are better than someone of another race just because they are white. A racist doesn't want anything to do with someone just because of the other person's race. Person A could hate person B based on race, but not think they are superior to them. Person C can be friends with person D even though though they think person D's race is inferior to person C's race.
