So who's standing up for the average hard working American White Man these days?...
The 100% that the Democrats govern for include those American White Man. So Democrats.
The Republicans really haven't been looking out for the welfare of the middle class in the last decade.
I just dont understand how BLM can be a thing and everyone is supposed to respect and support it
Do you believe that there is institutional racism?
How our government up until the 70's stopped minorities from moving into the suburbs and allowing our economy to severely limit black people from taking economic advantage of the suburban boom when the government opened up access by road with the interstate system.
And when the black people where left in cities that white people abandoned, that our Wealthy White Heterosexual Male Only politicians worked hard to keep power out of their hands with moves like gerrymandering and limiting access to vote (hours long lines).
I would start there if you want to actually gain an understanding of the social justice protests that had occurred over the summer.
...but if someone mentions White Lives Matter they wanna publicly tar n feather them...why can't white people be proud of their race but African Americans can have an entire movement....why can there be all black colleges but let someone dare start an all white college....why can there be a BET(Black Entertainment Television) and it's ok but let someone try n start a WET(White Entertainment Television) channel and see how everyone reacts...
I would ask why you think it is necessary to say White Lives Matter? Why is that even a thing?
And why does it bother you that a company started a channel that is a pioneer in directing entertainment towards a group of people who didn't really have any other channel dedicated to having people that look like them on TV to the point you would think White Entertainment Television would be a good brandname?
.why can't white people be proud of their race but African Americans can have an entire movement....why can there be all black colleges but let someone dare start an all white college..
All college were white basically up until the 70's. That is the problem.
Its ridiculous
White Privilege??....yeah maybe for some spoiled rich kid who's been handed everything...but I dont see much white Privilege for the people around me...
I would consider if people around you's kid works his butt off, and get's a great job, they are not going to get things like being pulled over because they are driving into a nice area after a long day at work. And they are also because of that going to have a far less chance of being pulled out of their car and harassed and being arrested because a cop had a bad day and targeted a black guy in that same situation.
actually I see just the exact opposite...all the African Americans I work with are lazy and refuse to do their job and if you say anything to them or try n correct them they pull the "race card"...its been a running joke at my place of employment that if your an African American at this job you dont have to work you can just hang out all day n get paid...yeah we have some white guys who are lazy too but at my particular place of employment 100% of the African Americans refuse to do their job and dare you to fire them or say anything to them and walk around with a chip on their shoulder putting off the vibe "I'll be damned if any white man is gonna tell me what to do"...NEWSFLASH Buddy...your getting PAID.
White Privilege?...I'm white if you haven't guessed by now and I've actually been racially and sexually discriminated against bc I've applied for a job and was told that "yeah your more than welcome to apply sir...but we have 2spots to fill and to meet our requirements we must hire one more female and one more non white person"...and I'm neither
Sounds like your job sucks.
But that doesn't mean your kids don't have a far easier shot at working hard to achieve a great education and career that that black guys kid. When you consider things like they can achieve the same things as your kid (Public schools are generally not going to be as good as they are in suburbs (even though you have the same job, do you live in the same neighborhoods?)), but not have to deal with interviewing with people who almost all will not look necessarily different than you.
Unfortunately I've not always been a fine upstanding member of society..
It happens, sounds like you are working hard and doing well in life now though.
I've spent my share of time behind fences n walls and also in low income housing projects in cities up n down the east coast...
When you got out, were you told we don't rent to your kind?
Because in the 70-80's (as late as 2000's I have seen examples of widespread redlining in AP that I posted in here somewhere if you actually want to have this conversation and are not just trolling/drunk/whatever) you would have heard that if you were black looking to make a better home for your kids.
This a big economic reason for why we are in the mess we are in today with our minority communities.
I've spent my share of time around African Americans and if your white and you think they give a single flying fuck about you...your wrong...they dont...when your not around they laugh at you...and if you dont believe that your very naive...
Maybe you people live in a different world...you probably do..but in my world and in my experience this is how things are
You don't think that a mixed race kid can come from parents that love each other?
I call bullshit.
Doesn't trigger me...I've thought it was ridiculous from the 1st time I ever heard the words some years ago...I just think its stupid n I see straight thru it is all...when I see bullshit I call bullshit...I see what they're tryna do...unfortunately stupidity trumps Intelligence in this country so they're winning...that's what all this is about right...the BLM movement and the Biden campaign?...that they would bank on the stupid ppl falling for their bullshit?...well they were correct I'll give em that much
Where did you first hear the words years ago?
That is the propaganda that has been pushed your way. There is really no reason you would have heard those words if not.
As for Biden campaign and BLM I really have no clue what you are even going on about there.
