Funny how racist the US is while the NFL is predominantly black millionaires playing a game.


What's funny about that?

Okay but do you think a person's race has any effect on whether or not they share your world view?

Black millionaires who claim the US is racist yet worshiped by the white middle class, pretty funny.

Do you think someone can be a millionaire and still experience racism?

I do not think the US as a whole is racist and certainly not enough where they have to make it up similar to Jussie and LeBron.

That is determined by the way they were raised, and has nothing to do with race.

Black peoples overwhelmingly vote Democrat.

What’s your point (that’s rhetorical...we all know that you really don’t have a point)?

Interesting opinion, though not really an answer to the question I asked.

Do you think someone can be a millionaire and experience racism? There's no right answer here, I'm just asking for your opinion.

Sure they can experience a racist person but a system, no. They can also experience hate just from being rich and not necessarily from their race.

My response to people that see racism everywhere they go, its because they carry it with them


My response is that everyone is a racist. It is hardwired into the human brain and we're never getting rid of it.

So rich black people cannot exist in a systemically racist society, is that what you're claiming?

End racism probably means end racism. No subliminals here.

Which system is currently racist that should be changed?

You're getting ahead here. I'd be more than happy to answer any questions you have once I figure out a couple more things.

Do you mind answering my question first?

Saying because there are black millionaire athletes that the US is not racist isn't really looking at the whole picture.

Why is white net worth 10 larger than that of blacks? Could it be that historically, the US did have systematic racism that presented itself in policies such as redlining, Jim Crow, etc. that played a part in pushing blacks into the high poverty areas you still see today? That while individual and collective attitudes about racism and segregation have improved dramatically over the past 50 years, the legacy of those racist policies have yet to be addressed adequately. Doesn't mean there aren't other influences/factors, but while the policy currently may not be 'racist' - how do we address poverty levels and net worth disparities that were created historically by a racist system?

I appreciate your opinion.

Let me maybe repeat so that you don't think I'm trying to get you to contradict that, because I'm not.

Would it be possible for there to be rich black people in a systemically racist society?

I don't know since there is no evidence to appropriately answer this question.

It's a political tool. You are a racist if you aren't a believer in the establishment ideology. If you are a believer in the establishment ideology, then you are not a racist. A lot of legit racists are now not considered racists because they are believers in the establishment ideology.


It's that simple.

End racism. Racism will end as long as everyone converts to the establishment ideology.
