why? I am a minority and the race game has gone too far and causing division. |
I see opposite these days and I am a minority. |
Yes, because white people have no problems blaming the bogeyman for all of the country's problems but won't empty their own closets of hoods, capes, and low hanging branches, both literal and figurative. I've yet to meet a white person, who isn't being paid to speak about it, talk about how it's shameful that their southern ancestors (i.e, blood ancestors) grabbed a few people and strung them up. I mean google images "public lynchings" and the pictures with 1000s of people participating are horrifying. These people and their offspring are walking amongst us now. They must number in the tens (or hundreds) of thousands. |
fair point, the stereotype of the back slapping boys network that take care of each other is not fake. it definitely happens. but the stereotype of the underqualified and lazy Black person hired under affirmative action is not fake either. and even more prevalent is the underperforming Black or other minority who allowed to stay, when a White male would have been fired, for fear of a Title VII lawsuit. we have all seen them. the problem with race based programs is that they perpetuate these half true but unfair and unproductive stereotypes. |
1. Almost none of “these people” walk among us today. The vast majority are dead. 2. Do you hold every child responsible for the sins of their parents? For example, do you despise Latinos for their history of human sacrifice and slavery? Japanese for their brutality against native populations in WWII? Palestinians for their collaboration with Hitler? Or is this a special standard that you only apply to “white people”? |
did it occur to you that many White people sacrificed their lives fighting for the United States army in the Civil War so that your ancestors could be free? their offspring are walking among you too. has it ever occurred to you honor those White people, to thank them, or (gasp) pay them reparations for their ancestors' sacrifice? |
So, anyone not in the white Christian group, ok.
This is more about grants than schools but my jaw dropped when I read yesterday about an Israeli grant cancelled bec (I assume some AI program) determined it was DEI. You know why? It mentioned the word ‘gender’ to describe how Hebrew language has feminine and masculine like many other languages. Can we do anything here or just watch as civil rights become a dirty word? |
Just wait until you learn who owned the slave ships! |
RIF 1. even a kindergartner can understand what "and their offspring" means 2. why Palestinians and Hitler as if Palestinians in the 1940s (which modern country did they lead?) even make the top 100 groups on the modern list of world atrocities? Unless, of course, you're that kind of selective SJW. This is America, stop talking about the Nazis as if Americans produced them. We saved the Jews and Europe. Take that finger pointing sht to Europe. Same with your examples of ancient Mesoamerican and South American civilizations, and Japanese in Japan. White Christian people in America have ethnically cleansed every other racial/ethnic/religious group in America at some time in history. The example of public lynchings is especially relevant because they and their children are still living and participated or witnessed it, yet no one talks about it in the first person. No "I was there" selfies yet they looked right into the camera when other people were taking their picture with a lynched body hanging behind them. Savages. When you can give examples of non-white groups of people in America organizing and killing whites (or another minority) on a systematic and celebratory basis with no repercussions, we can expand the "special standard" you whine about. |
Uhh, keep up, kid. That's 100 years before the 1950s and 60s. And white people didn't fight to free slaves but to preserve the Union. Way to whitewash history and forget Jim Crow ever existed. Integration in the military didn't even happen until the 1950s. And there are literal cemeteries, statues, songs, and anthems commemorating white soldiers, that almost all Americans don't hesitate to celebrate. Plus reparations to white people add up to the trillions of dollars in generational wealth over time, off the backs (and lives) of minorities. If white people really wanted to free the slaves, they'd have sent all the confederate sympathizers to Guantanamo and freely given up those 40 acres plus one mule. /s |
Sorry OP but his has turned into a pathetic thread for racist idiots. I'm out. |
WTAF? ![]() |
Why should I feel shame about actions that neither I nor my ancestors perpetrated. My family came here and was dirt poor, but all of their children applied themselves and moved up in society. Plenty of immigrants come here, work hard, and are successful. If this country was so institutionally racist, Asians wouldn’t be the most successful racial group. Nobody deserves an advantage because of their skin color, or whatever historic grievances they are carrying as a crutch for why they aren’t successful. |
First of all, by what metric are Asians the most successful? Judges and lawyers; politicians, local, state, or national; professors, teachers, and college/hs/ms/elementary admin; police and fire chiefs; Hollywood production companies, producers, directors, actors, and agents; Music labels, producers, artists, and agents; sports team owners, coaches, athletes, and agents; etc. The list is endless. Which area exactly do Asians in America dominate or even have proportional representation in? Don't say tech companies unless you're willing to acknowledge that they're only the cheaper employees that don't complain as much. |
Where. I never see unqualified minority women be in charge while other people carry her department. |
