white privilege blinds most of you guys, it's sad really. i'm half white, but i'm not stuck on this "Oh, well so what if they had a rough spot in history" you don't understand, they still get shit on to this day.

this country has deep rooted institutional racism, just because you don't see it doesn't mean it's not there. you usually won't see things unless you know what you're looking for. I used to be blind myself, i had numerous debates when i was younger with black friends about their views on white privilege, and how i thought it was bs. eventually i had an epiphany.

See the problem isn't that anyone here is denying that racism exists and has a negative effect on a large portion of our society. The problem is that NO MATTER HOW RACIST EVERYONE AROUND THEM IS NOTHING EXCUSES PEOPLE FROM ACTING THE WAY SUBWAY DUDE FROM EARLIER DESCRIBED. NO AMOUNT OF RACISM EXCUSES PEOPLE PURPOSELY HAVING BABIES TO MAKE MONEY.

Unfortunately people like to turn a blind eye to the reality of the ignorance some people display and excuse it as them being poor disenfranchised, disrespected, and discriminated against souls who's only crime was to be born with dark skin. That's bullshit and the people who say stupid shit like that are these reason these people will stay poor ignorant indecent pieces of shit for life and for generations. No one holds them accountable for their actions? How do you think they are going to act? What do you think they are going to teach their children?

"Oh hey I know daddy drives a benz and acts however he damned well pleases like a spoiled adult child and still gets his way but being poor and ignorant and having to lie, cheat, steal, and abuse the system to get by is a bad thing! You should instead work your ass off and suffer to better yourself." Yeah I see that happening.

Racism doesn't excuse you from being accountable for your behavior. I don't know to what degree of white guilt you have to reach before that seems like acceptable behavior but it scares me.

Hey, dont mix arguments to suit your point. I never said anything about that shit. I was responding to blatantly obvious racism, so fuck you buddy.

You were responding to someone describing people as being "******s" for acting ignorant and ridiculous by saying that racism is still a problem. That reads to me as you saying racism excuses their actions. i.e. it came off as you being the one who is mixing arguments to suit your point.

i said that? really? show me. for reference, my posts are # 50, 78, 82, 85, 90, 98, 99, 103, 109, and 134. are you saying that by quoting you in post 82 that somehow i'm joining your convo? no, fucker, i was using you to reinforce my point in post 78.

you've now made it clear that you are looking for something to bitch about, and you don't know what the fuck you're talking about. stop fucking taking my posts and trying to pidgeon hole them into your discussion about welfare (which is something i was not getting into, if you had actually read my posts).

H'okay, let me make this simple. This conversation started with a racially slanted video about welfare recipients. The majority of the responses were either a.) Welfare is bullshit fuck giving people free money, b.) Shut the fuck up people need that money or c.) OMFG YOU SHOULD SEE THE DIRTY "******S" WHO TAKE OUR MONEY AND SHIT ALL OVER SOCIETY

Pretty sure only the last one of those statements can really be construed as racist... So I am going to assume that your responses to several of the posts in this thread stating how racism is alive and well and the priveledged crackers need to take off the blinders and look around were in response to that.

So you responding to the "racists" about the reality of "racism" taken in the context of their "racism" being their describing the behavior of "******s" I feel that it's pretty reasonable for me to infer that your intent is to excuse said behavior by confirming the reality of "racism".

Maybe I am reading this all wrong and if that's the case I'll offer my most sincere apologies... but you are going to have to provide some other reason why you were bringing up racism in this thread. Cuz right now it just sounds like you are insulting my character for making a logical inference!

[Feachie]

so me saying "racism does, in fact, exist" is translated as "racism is why people abuse the welfare system"?

like i said, you're looking for something, and i am insulting you because you're fucking stupid for drawing that conclusion [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
