And the same to you

I just have a feeling you disagree with my viewpoint and you are turning that into me being unprofessional or "unworthy" of the profession.

Your thought process is why the status quo remains and why things don't change. You think simply assimilation in to fractured and broken systems does best for everyone, and that those able bodies able to do more for others, should just simply adhere to relics of the old guard.

Your mentality is defeating and full of apathy.

The thing is I'm often the "dissenting black voice" in those "lets vent about blacks" threads so some posters place me in a box based on their own preconceived notions.

If you even defend black people around here, you're a racist (exaggeration but you get the point).

Been at it for 10 years now, nothing! Has changed. Nothing.

People are going to stereotype; it has more to do with intellectual laziness than animus imho.

CNN promoting false white racism is now "let's vent about blacks"????
What are you talking about? This thread was about CNN and their desperate attempt to keep white racism alive today. Stay on topic and stop playing the pity card.

I agree with that.

I feel like I can rationally engage you when I feel you are wrong.

SS on the other hand

in his mind whites are always wrong, because white.

When blacks do wrong, whites are wrong because white.

you can't engage debate with such irrationality. He wasn't always that way, though. Pretty recent turn for the worst

White racism isn't alive because of cnn.

The whole narrative of ," let's not talk about racism to make it go away " is the same mess that got us here.

It's white flight in a rhetorical fashion.

Well, let's see.

You are pointing out his privilege to make a sarcastic point.

Meanwhile, your life is build on the same privilege, you just happen to be black.

Some might call that ironic. I bet your life is real tough as a black med school student, huh. You poor thing.

However, it is promoted unfairly when racist hate crimes against white people are completely ignored.

Racism still does exist and the largest % of it is against white people.

The problem with having a discussion of racism is that white conservatives are the only people NOT allowed to have an opinion on the matter.

In fact, if your opinion differs from what pop culture has decided, you have no voice.

What got us into this situation is that dissenting opinions are not considered.

Ever

Let's add white persecution to the list with Christian persecution as things that are totally real and legit and definitely not embellished or overblown at all.

I think this post is a good example of how you assumed the posters were bashing blacks, when in fact they were bashing CNN for false claims of racism.

Your preconceived notions led you down the wrong path...and your summary of this board being a consistent mantra of "blacks are bad" shows that you do this often.

You don't read my post then.

I have never said anything racist. Not once.

What I have done is asked people to think about how our perceptions of others really does effect the way our world is govern.

And I've asked people to not discount historical context. When I rant about code words, it's because thise things come from our darkest times, and I would wish we could all move away from that.

Essentially, if we have to take accountability for the mishaps of our community, then why shouldn't whites do the same?

That's something I hardly ever get an answer for

What happened in this thread, ommg, is that you were appropriately called out for your ridiculous m.o. that you exhibit almost everytime somebody makes a point about a racial matter. I'm glad to see that a few other posters here have figured out your pattern.

This thread was a typical example of that. The subject matter of this thread had to do with the OP's contention that CNN goes out of there way to highlight stories which appear to contain an element of white racism. Real or imagined.

Ommg, you were free to respond to the OP's contention anyway you saw fit. You could've agreed with him, disagreed with him, or whatever.

But what did you actually do? You did what I've seen you do 50 times before. You responded with a stupid, deflective remark that had nothing to do with the subject matter. Something to the effect of, "man, it sure is tough being a white person in America."

That nonsensical comment had nothing to do with the OP's thread, but that's all you ever do. You call yourself a good poster? Dude, you're a joke. Maybe one notch above a troll.

As for you, Strongsafety, you need to seek professional help. You have a problem, brother. You're arguably the biggest racist on this board, but funny how the ommg types NEVER have a problem with all of the racist crap you spew on here every day. Very REVEALING.

Kudos to some of the other board members here for figuring out ommg's little agenda.
