These experiences are teaching me to be angry and even hate… I'm not sure what you're saying. But I will try to respond. "Why is it O.K. to Discriminate against an different race..." It is NOT okay to discriminate against a different race. "Is it OK to discriminate against white people? Why? Because White People discriminated against Black People. DUH!" It is not okay to discriminate against anyone because of their race. If you discriminate against a white person because another white person discriminated against a black person, then you are disciminating against that white person because they are white. That is not ok. That is the definition of racial discrimination. You can't cure racial discrimination with more racial discrimination. That type of action produces racial resentment among white people who are not guilty of anything except being white. It drives the races apart and produces poisonous conflict between people and has the opposite effect of what we are trying to accomplish as a society. We show less advertisements to registered users.

I just was asking because who cares? Sure, he could be a canary in the coal mine. He could also be just one of the 350,000,000 people in this country who is stupid. I hate what deconstructionism is doing to this country, but that guy is small potatoes. It's sad he feels that way, but we can't build a coalition by othering. I have a lot of black friends, and while they have some misconceptions about whites, I've only ever met a few radicals. You can't change them. They also aren't the majority. We shouldn't fear them. We need to be fixating our ire on the people that cause this mess. The elites do this. He's just a biproduct.

Isn't it true, though, that "black pride" and "white pride" are treated quite differently by the media and society at large? The cartoon does make a valid point, doesn't it?

The cartoon says they like it, not that they're proud of it.
Liking the way you were born is healthy. But being proud of a circumstance of your birth, when you obviously had no control over it, is problematic regardless of what it is. Black, white, boy, girl, American, Mexican, no difference. Now if we are ever at war I would hope we would all be proud to be Americans. And I understand black pride as a necessary defense mechanism against a world that prefers whiteness on many levels. But the need or excuse for both types of pride should be temporary. In general pride should only be applied to things you've done, not things you were born into.

Most blacks I know wouldn't answer "That's racist." They would answer with "That's obvious." So, my answer would be a very small minority. Now, if you took out the black guy and put in an educated, white liberal, that percentage goes WAY up.

You gotta stop posting those. Every time, I end up wasting 30 minutes of my day scrolling through videos. Have some compassion, man!

Sure If slavery and 160-some-odd years of civil rights oppression never happened, it would make a point. But that [BLEEP] happened and it's not yet distant in our rear view mirror. Maybe when we are far enough removed from the recent history 'black pride" and "white pride" won't have such disparate meanings. But for now - one is a pride stemming from a legacy of oppression. One is a pride inexorably linked to the legacy of the oppressors. |
