What a great series of assumptions. Unfortunately you started with the wrong assumption — that I would give a ***** about you or your grandparents! I don't! Lmao everybody on this board is like MY DADDY AND MY GRANDDADDY AND MY GREAT GRANDADDY Yeah you can all suck my ass as far as I'm concerned? MY DADDY AND MY DADDY AND MY DADDY AND MY DADDY AND WE BUILT AMERICA AND RACISM ISNT REAL, IM INNOCENT, LEAVE ME ALONE, I DIDNT DO NOTHIN MY DADDY AND MY DADDY lmaooooooo Go off, racists!

Also curious where else Sig is going to be paid for his "knowledge, skills, and abilities" and what those are. You seem to be full of rage today, that KKK thread really seemed to trigger you, snowflake.

Sorry for invading your safe space, snowflakes

How do you justify these illogical positions, PPP? You want tax cuts to every social program.... except the cops. But you're NOT racist. And you are sure the police are doing a good job. And also, you are smart and don't want to be a hypocrite. In this thread, explain why these are not contradictory beliefs, and why it has nothing to do with race.

When government cuts other social program we usually just celebrate it as a Tax Cut Do you think you/cops deserve more than teachers? What are your "knowledge, skills, and abilities" exactly, and how are they helpful? Since you're paid with my tax dollars, I just want to know what I'm paying for. Based on your posts here, I can think of no better reason to de-fund the police than the fact that it employs people like this.

Hey Deek! Our definitions of busy might be different but be sure to add your vote!

A lot of people on this forum repeat KKK and White Supremacy talking points. Nobody is willing to share their identity. @billsfan1959 is a 30+ year cop who, to this day, gets irrationally angry at the mere idea of a Black person talking to him. @Johnnycage46 seems like he's probably a teenager-20 something, but wouldn't surprise me if his Dad or Uncles were in the KKK because all he knows are their talking points. He will scream "black on black" violence and "Chicago!" at every instance of an unarmed black person being killed by the state. So, are any of you in the KKK? Do you know anyone in the KKK? Do you think the KKK exists or are you denying their reality too? Just curious!

Way to miss the point. I'm saying, the reason you are saying those terms instead of older terms — slurs — you're not saying the N word but your dad did — language evolves. Whether you like it or not. Time moves forward. Culture and language adapt to the people who use it. It is difficult for those in a cult obsessed with death to understand

And you got the answer you will be getting. Listen to Patrice and talk to me about Patrice and then we can talk about the question bc you will know your answer

I'm saying don't listen to me listen to Patrice (RIP) For new page

Here ya go

Hilarious. One of the greats. If you don't know about Patrice O'Neal, you're welcome you ungrateful *****.

That's awesome! Thanks for sharing. Sometimes I think, really there is no reason, based on history, to expect White America to really actually come around and support Black America in this. But things like this, I feel like this time is different. It started with Trayvon Martin, I think. People are waking up to the reality that things should be, and can be different. Very inspiring to see people encourage American ingenuity. Despite what this board would have you believe, America does have a lot of very talented and brilliant thinkers among us. They just don't go here.

Didn't your other post in the Racism thread just laugh and boast about not reading any of it? But now you're in your strappy shoes all coquettish like "Aw c'mon mister Persons, I just want to ask one widdle question.... pwease" So the entitlement, that's fun. But also I like this thing too that the rest of humanity is your personal google, like everybody owes you explanations, and if it isn't to your satisfaction, then it isn't real. It's funny because you don't realize where you get ANY of these traits from. You just think they're your cute li'l quirks! Anyway it's not a terrible question, even though you mean it with vile intent. I mean, it's... it's really stupid, since the answer to the question is in the question, but it's... I think maybe it's just a change of pace from being asked the same 2 questions repeatedly. If I explain to you the framework of how to understand systemic gender oppression in America, which is the discussion in which trans people would be relevant as that is a question of gender not race, I'm going to get carpal tunnel and you're not going to read it anyway. Race and gender are different classifications. They are similar in more ways than they are not; the definition for racism is not so different from the definition of patriarchy. But like "systemic" and "systematic" even though they are similar, they are not identical. Essentially, both race and gender are constructs that are built around taking physical attributes and insisting that a character trait must follow. The real truth is that we're all fleshy hairy mouth-breathing farting cumming giant babies who, at best, learn the value of their own life before they die, and are able to appreciate it, and share that love and life as much as possible. Genetics are hack. Look in your family trees. See the same faces repeat. That's all "race" is. Out of the primordial ooze, these various physical traits emerged as separate DNA strands and came to define humanity. We had to impose a reason on the fact that we looked different. It couldn't just be "people look different and come from different places." There had to be an objective reason. (Again, objectivity is a lie and method of control; see Racism FAQ) You can have any skin tone, nose, hair, size, genitals and be any kind of character. That's the real reality. The reality imposed by patriarchy & racism through various methods of control, all of which sound like crazy conspiracy theories but all documented like COINTELPRO and all sort of subtle and overt manipulations to control the "race" problem. Race as a concept was not invented by America; it came earlier — but the generation of writers who invented race had big influences on the generation of men who became the framers of the Constitution. Were we assuming it was somehow an accident that all of the Founding Fathers were slave owners and built a society on the economic engine of slavery? Did Washington and Jefferson just go "oopsy, didn't occur to me"? Do you not see how this is all ***** Santa Claus and you're still putting out the cookies like a total mark? Meanwhile "Santa" is going through the house and taking everything you own. It doesn't hold up to any scrutiny if you think about it. It's all BS. It's the Matrix. It's propaganda crap that as Americans we all thought we were too smart and clever and special to ever fall for something like that. But it's right there, and it's obvious as hell once you see it.

You know, I need to do a re-tally but you should sign up. You should tell me what lies you think I'm spouting, and which facts you think you are presenting. I really like how the entire basis of your argument a moment ago was how you "won" because you "proved" that racism isn't "systematic" and now that's just a small little detail since, as it turns out, you didn't know "systemic" was a word and still don't know what it means, but you are nevertheless certain you proved it wrong. Like, I just watched you do that. And I will watch you deny it in your next post. You're going to insist on a reality that is completely different than the one you just subjected me to, because the new reality will better suit your argument. So basically, in real time, you're demonstrating the overall pattern of White people's racism in general and how it warps your brain and how you don't even know it. If this were a lab, you'd be the specimen I would be using to demonstrate to the class. Excited to see how you "win" in your next post!

Did you seriously not notice that in my quote I say "systemically" even though you bolded it? Systematically Systemically Similar, I know. There is a difference. Can ya spot it for us, Johnny? Can ya try? I'll even give you a hint. Blame me all you want. I didn't invent the language. I'm just saying, "if you live here, maybe learn to speak English" Since you can't even identify the words distinct from each other, even when you literally are tracing your chubby sausage digit over the word and s-s-s-s-sounding it out, I'm going to go ahead and guess you're not going to be able to tell me the difference in meaning.

You're confusing "systemic" with "systematic" You'll notice only you said "systematic" because you're not good at reading. You do it sloppy, and as a result, your comprehension skills are below average. Do you know the difference between "systemic" and "systematic", Johnny? They overlap, but they are different. Do you understand the distinction and how it relates? Can you say so for the class?

I love that you guys go from "I didn't read any of this Marxist Chinese Maoist bull####" to "Can I just ask a question?" — ON A DIME. Speaks volumes.

Well, I can tell you, you didn't get that straight with your red hair example. You would know it if you read and processed, but I've seen enough from you to know that is not really your strong suit. If you are "oppress" red hair in our reality, no, that's not racism. That is prejudice and discrimination. If you were to hypothetically create an alternate reality that systemically oppressed people with red hair, yes, that would be racism. Good "alternate universe" hypothetical, champ. Your comprehension is just so embarrassingly off-base, I would like to laugh, but I actually just feel overwhelming pity because you are actually putting in some effort, generally, in your appearances here. You are the result of the American education system. You are the result of over-funding police and under-funding schools. We have to share the country with people like yourself, who in their attempt to understand racism, can only laugh and compare it to teasing red-haired kids. Not only do we share the same amount of rights, the system is designed to give the absolute least deserving people the most advantages. You don't even recognize you have an advantage, this is how unaware you are. It's like you're playing Madden on extra-easy with 15000 handicap and thinking you're a world champion or something. I'm trying to think of another analogy you could comprehend. It's hard to explain to a dumb person what it's like to experience them, because they really have no knowledge of themselves or any ability to think outside of themselves.

Looks a bit Trumpish!

Actually it's because this is a white supremacist argument I've answered before a number of times. The reason you are bringing it up is because you want to insist that Black people deserve their treatment in American society; you are programmed to believe Black people are naturally more savage, more violent, most lustful, and more sinful in every way. That makes more sense to you than the idea you have been manipulated to think that way. You're far too smart to be manipulated, and you're pretty sure you'd know if you were. Bottom line. If you were actually concerned about Black deaths, you wouldn't be using their dead bodies in an argument that their lives don't matter. I know you don't think that's what you're doing, but that is what you are doing. Feel free to correct me by saying you think that black lives matter, police killing innocent black people with impunity is not acceptable, and how you individually plan to combat that, in addition to your concern about Black people's violence to each other.
