So end racism bothers you all?


You know exactly what that implies, and what it doesn’t. When the SJWs are pleading for people to “say their names,” they damned sure don’t want to hear the names of Channon Christian, Christopher Newsom, and those poor people in Wisconsin who wanted to enjoy a Christmas parade.

Is the impact of racism exclusive to a single race and only executed by another race? The NFL puts forth that view through their alliance with BLM.

The funny thing is those slogans will be there forever because no corporate stooge has the guts to say “We need to get rid of ‘End Racism’ in the endzones” this year.

Speak for yourself.

Racism can be against any group.

Since you are a self proclaimed authority on race answer me this. Why do black democrats make a martyr out of black men with questionable character? But put down a black man like Dr Ben Carson because he doesn’t agree with your false racism narrative? Didn’t Dr King say, “ all men should be judged for the content of their character, not the color of their skin.”

Tell us where is all this racism taking place against blacks in public places and employment in the public and private sector. Please be specific with names, dates and places.

“End Racism” is neither about racism nor about ending anything. It’s Orwellian doublethink. The actual meaning is beginning institutionalized race-based equity programs.

For example: We can’t end racism until we begin paying black people for being descendants of slaves and Jim Crowe victims.

I just love my AI Copywriter:

Attempts to promote equity as a replacement for equality are misguided and dangerous. Equity and equality are two distinct concepts, and substituting one for the other only serves to confuse the issue and distract from the true goal of fairness and justice. Equality is the idea that everyone should be treated the same, regardless of their background or circumstances. Equity, on the other hand, recognizes that people have different needs and experiences, and seeks to address these differences in order to achieve fairness and equal outcomes. While equity may sometimes require different treatment for different people, it is not a replacement for equality, but rather a way to achieve it. Those who promote equity as a replacement for equality are making a false equivalence, and are doing a disservice to the cause of social justice. It is important to understand the difference between these concepts, and to work towards true equality for all people.

What else are the players gonna whine, moan, and post on (un)social media about if they themselves have to forego their own racist attitudes?

Leave a lot free time for these high level thinkers of pro sports to have thoughts rattling inside that empty space we call a brain if the racist players gave credence to the notion of ending racism. Also cut the legs out from under the race grifter industry which is big $.

More confirmation that I was correct in telling the NFL to frick off when kapernick started his crap.
Haven't watched an NFL game since.
Will never watch another one unless they get a commissioner who has the balls to say "We were wrong, and will no longer try to influence politics...we are a football league...period!"
When that happens, somebody let me know.

Right there with ya...

It's funny to me.. 75% of the NFL is black and they have a message to stop racism... to a fan base that is 75% white...

Sure seems like finger pointing at Whitey to me...


How come we don't see: "Stop gang violence" on endzones?

Who are the racists?



Brown paper bag society

"Privilege has long been associated with skin tone in the African-American community, dating back to the era of slavery. Mixed-race children of white fathers were sometimes given privileges ranging from more desirable work, apprenticeships or formal education, to allocation of property or even freedom from enslavement. African Americans "contributed to colorism because they have benefited from the privilege of having a skin color closer to that of whites.

From 1900 until about 1950, "paper bag parties" are said to have taken place in neighborhoods of major American cities with a high concentration of African Americans. Many churches, fraternities, and nightclubs used the "brown paper bag" principle as a test for entrance. People at these organizations would take a brown paper bag and hold it against a person's skin. If a person was lighter than the bag, they were admitted."

It seems to effect most no matter the race.
