Hey all,
I wanted to start this thread out of a bit of frustration , maybe you have something similar . a few members of my family are leftys, not middle type sane folks who lean left- nope, antifa loving ,BLM following , AOC type leftists. They plaster their BS all over social media and shout down anyone trying to reason with them or ask them to defend their position. I'll share the latest from my SIL and what I would respond but I can't because the family fued that would result would not be worth it- here's the post-
Dearest SIL,
Don't you think "white people living in white neighborhoods" would know if they , themselves are racist? Aren't these the people who you claim are the cause of this divide? Can't you see that the people who you directly accuse of racism should have a chance to defend themselves against broad and ignorant statements , instead of just saying "what the f*** would you know?"? I'll tell you what I know, I know that saying "white people do xxx" IS RACIST against people who's skin color is lighter than some other people, nothing more. I understand and believe that individual racism exist, there are dumb people of every race but to claim the system is racist must be proven if I'm expected to agree.
Show me a law that sets different standards based on race, you can't . Show me the disproportionate number of minorities that have been oppressed in modern america, folks of asian decent consistently out perform other races academically & professionally , they're minorities so who's holding them down? What about Obama , how could he have become the most powerful man on earth if the system was designed to keep him down?
Hasn't occurred to you that black culture and inner city mentality glorifies crime through rap "music" and celebrities that promote illegal activity? This is why there is a drastically disproportionate number of black men in prison, welfare culture has promoted and encouraged single parent households with young black men who use gangsters as a role models which causes the cycle to continue. It's sad but until moral men are seen as role models in the black community this is going to continue. Black athletes who make more in one season of playing ball than I'll make in multiple lifetimes kneel and scream oppression , this is nonsense .
if a judge is biased convicting black men and over sentencing them to prison time then that individual should be corrected- it isn't the system. If an officer unfairly targets and abuses their authority that individual needs to be corrected, there is no memo from the cheif that says brutalize minorities, if it exists show me. There is no proof of institutional racism, bad individuals acting on their own bias don't represent me or all other Caucasians. That's like saying all black people hate white people because al Sharpton hates white people and has admitted to spitting in white customers food when he worked in a restaurant.
Why would white unarmed men be killed by police every year exceed the number of black unarmed men if the cops are out there killing minorities for sport? 9 unarmed black men killed by police in 2019 is hardly systematic . the number should be zero but that isn't reality, the streets are ugly and sometimes it gets sideways , the officers are held accountable, their lives are ruined even when justified, no one wants that regardless of how racist they may or may not be. Do Americans hate Germans? The Nazis killed thousands of our patriots last century. Do we hate Vietnamese folks? They killed thousands of our young men. Do we hate Japanese? Or any of the other nations of people we've been at war with? Nope. Neither side sees it that way.
Slavery ended , anyone who expresses openly racist rhetoric is shunned by EVERYONE. I'd actually go as far as saying that black racists outnumber white racist by a large margin. As an example , what would happen if I went 40 miles from my home to the south side of chicago, let's say Stony Island area- 98% black, .3% white, I can't walk down the street there without being in fear for my life and with good reason. How about Compton , how about areas of Baltimore , how about any ghetto in the US? Now show me a single neighborhood where a black man would fear for his life to walk down the street. Maybe in some backwoods redneck town they could get some friction but probably not. I lived in the hills of east Tennessee as rural and redneck as it gets and I saw black folks around (although very few) but they were not in fear of their life and carried on as normal citizens without a problem. I'm sure there were ignorant individuals who didn't like them but that's INDIVIDUALS , not the mass population.
I can accuse anyone of anything without proof but that doesn't make it true. Institutional racism is such a crock, if it exists shouldn't there be systematic protocols that separate people by race? I blame Obama for this divide widening , he's a black racist who harmed race relations more than anyone in modern history .
Normal black folks don't blame the system for the trouble. I have a good friend who is a black man in his 70s, he lived through segregation and racism - real racism and he'll be the first to tell you these assholes have lost their mind, he hates the divide and told me these punks don't know oppression. I believe him and feel the same way.
---rant off---
I just wanted to vent about the BS they've been cramming down our throats. They're building a new foundation of anti-white racist and the media is condoning it . what ever happened to a person being judged by the content of their character rather than the color of their skin? Generalizing white people is no less racist than someone saying "all black people" do xxxx. Plain and simple. It's now normal to be called a racist and if you attempt to defend yourself they'll say "you can't see past your white privilege " or "your opinion is invalid on the subject". They need to get off their high horse and gave real conversation rather than finger pointing and accusations, that helps nothing . even black conservatives are labeled and mocked by the media because they're not buying it. I'd just like someone to provide real evidence of this systemic racism instead of just shouting down anyone who questions them. We're all brothers and sisters and if you see skin color as a way to determine ANYTHING about someone, you are in fact a racist . simple.
What are your thoughts. If you have gripes with social media posts that you can not freely respond to , post it here and rant. I've got some other screenshots I can rant on but I'll see how this one goes.
