    Couldn't agree more about this.  Getting really tired of all the virtue-signaling.  All these people an companies aren't doing anything to actually effect change.  It's just something for them to be able to say well I stood behind you and make themselves feel better in the end.  Enough politics, back to something other than all the issues the world has.

    Bro did you seriously just post Candace Owens? Please show me where she denied the issues of race in America during this climate. She never did. She even admitted she sees the issues a few days ago. I'm not her friend, Black people dont like her. I hate her actually. I think she hates herself. But, I'm neither democrat or republican, I despise both for different reasons. Okay thats my take on her..

    I'm very curious why you haven't proven YOUR blackness. You said you were black. Prove it. 

    I don't give a damn about Candace Owens. Prove YOUR blackness or STFU. Period bro. Don't come here with all your bullshit that Blacks would NEVER say in this climate. You literally said, "there are only two races PC and Mac" as if this shit is a joke. You ain't black but you are blocked now. You claimed "I'm black" to derail my argument and failed.

    Have several seats. 
    No, I didn't post Candice Owens, but I like how you keep bleating racist shit.  I don't have to prove anything to a Rachel Dolezal filled with cultist Karen rage.  Stop being a Karen and stop pretending you aren't racist.  "Race" is meaningless.  Skin hue isn't magic and neither controls thoughts nor actions.  Thinking I have to think a certain way or believe certain things because I am black is racist.  George Floyd was murdered by a cop.  Its awful.  

    You want me to dislike the cops?  I already disliked them well before you were born.  Looting, unprovoked violence against innocent people, and destroying businesses and communities isn't something I will ever get behind.  Your cultist ideal of blackness that comes from white fascist professors does not magically change my skin hue.  


    Since I am not a racist I don't care what color my skin is, neither do I care what color the skin of anyone else is.  If your end game for race isn't where I am now (where it doesn't matter at all to any sane, normal, or rational person), then what is it?  I like some people, I dislike most people, and all of this is based on the person and not their skin hue.  If someone is a PC user and not a savage barbarian console or apple user that makes much more sense for liking or not liking them than skin hue.  Just as I agree with people more who like my type of rpg more than if they like pretend rpgs or rpg lite tripe.  

    I really hope one day you can stop seeing everything through such a ridiculous lens of hyper racial bullshit and can start seeing everyone is their own person with agency and autonomy and you stop being such a racist.   Until then I will group you and white supremacists into the same group of racist lowbrow cultists.  The chance of my showing a picture of myself or giving my real name is zero.  You woke cultists love destroying lives, and I'm not having my real life ruined by zealots.  I'm pretty certain my black life, and the black lives of anyone who isn't as racist as you, does not matter.  If you have the time between your racist rants look back through my posts, like I said I stated it a couple times years ago.

    Other than that, I said my piece.  You think all black people have to think alike or they aren't black, and I think you are a racist.  Have a good day and have fun in your hate cult!

    I've NEVER IN MY LIFE heard a black man to another black man: "You are racist" I've never heard it. ESPECIALLY talking Black-White politics in America. Never heard it. It's just not something we say. 

    SIR. You have dug yourself a hole and I'm prepared to fill it for you. You chose the right one to lie to today.

    You said you disliked cops since before I was born.. Oh yeah? Okay, what year are we talking? I was born in 1987. Which makes me 33 years old. Now let's see if you coward out about this too. What year were you born in? Surely that's nothing crazy to share? I've seen people here share ages for years. Surely you can tell us your birth year sir?

    @blamo2000 ;

    You won't share your social media link but can say anti-black shit, and claim to be black. You are a black person that doesn't think race matters.. in America..... 

    Nah bro you ain't black.

    I'm calling you on your bullshit, I don't care how long you been lying about it, you are lying. The moment you tell me your age, you are going to be revealed for who you really are. I bet you won't tell me that also because you are a coward. Again, I know how cowards move, I deal with this all the time across the internet. You aren't new. 


    Why lie about this? Do you know how serious this is? Right now? You want to lie about your race to prove a point? You think saying "Im black" give you points? It doesn't, it makes everything you said WAY worse. 

    You do realize that Black people don't get to say "My skin doesn't matter" in America. It fucking matters, if it didn't none of this would be happening. The fact that I have to even explain any of this to you speaks volumes that you arent really black. 

    It's weird that you would lie about this to an actual black person. I know you arent and I knew you wouldn't prove it. I've seen this before. 

    You told on yourself so much. We in general don't think that way about race because we are born into a world where we have to acknowledge it every day even if we don't want to. 

    The fact that you are saying the opposite is why I KNOW you aren't black. You are just a coward who thinks he can derail convos by saying "im black" how long have you been doing this and what do you get out of it? Its weird. 

    HATE CULT? Wow. What Cult? Im curious what cult did I say I was part of? I dont remember saying anything about a hate cult or hate group that I was part of. Strange that you would say that.. and you claim to be black. 

    LOL okay. 

    All racist people really do the same thing. It's the same exact playbook. You are the third person in this thread to call me racist, hateful etc for simply speaking up for my race. I never once said anything hateful towards another race, I never once said I hate another race, I only said Black Lives Matter and this is why. I only called out people who are on Bullshit like you.

    Im getting hate from you and a few others because you are upset at what Im saying. But to lie on me and pretend to be black is just another level of hate. Im unsure of what to make of you. Its just weird and sad. Mostly weird.

    You still haven't proven your blackness. Until you do you are a bigot hiding behind "im black" to derail conversations about race that you dont agree with.

    It must feel good to be able to just cut off "Politics" "Or "all the issues the world has" because it doesn't affect you. It must be really nice. 

    Hey, I'm glad you get to do that. Just remember not everyone is in YOUR position so no matter how tired you are of it, it won't stop until change happens. Get used to it. This is going to be how it is for a while. The only way to avoid it is to cut yourself off from the world. This is going to be a while. These companies could say nothing too so I'm glad they are raising awareness because people who think "it doesn't matter" wouldn't lift a finger to change a thing. Virtue Signal or not, this is important for millions of people.

    Not all of us get to say "Enough Politics" because our real life is being affected by current politics sadly.

    33% of black male have felony charges.  That number is quite high.  

    The other side of the story is 66% of black male get pulled over by the police often even though they are law abiding.

    Most of these argument run in circle.  It is all about what you emphasis on.  Some people think the crime rate in the black community is the problem people should emphasize on.  Other people think unfair treatment on black person and racial tension is more important.  And the argument run in circle.

    Exhibit A.

    This is what online racism looks like. So there's no confusion. Because for some reason there are people here that think IM being racist by pointing out the bullshit around here. Cowards that hide behind alt accounts. 

    Edit: this is blatant. I want people to see this. nobody calls this type of shit out, they just act like they didn't see it. NO. I'm calling it out. I don't care who likes it. It's bullshit.

    Now, look at his next comment below how he tries to act righteously as if this didn't just happen. How he tries to gaslight me and pretend like IM the one that's racist. I told you this would happen. It's right out the racist handbook. This is what they do. They do racist shit, then when you speak up they call you racist.

    The new racism is like this. Its microaggressions online, its hiding behind avatars and screen names, its incel chatroom people like this guy. 

    I'm writing here because I want people to see the truth. It doesn't just happen here, it's all over the internet. Anywhere white people gather online I tend to see this rhetoric from SOMEBODY and it sucks. I wish it wasn't like this but it is. So I have developed no tolerance for them. I have a right to be pissed off. I see this so much. CALL IT OUT. Stop letting this happen. 

    I also want people to understand why I respond the way I do to them. I have zero tolerance for it. I won't accept it on any level. 

    @danasty I hope you feel like a real man at night...please when you look at your wife try not to think about what she's dreaming about.

    It shouldn't be a circular argument. I really don't like this narrative. 

    It's very clear. Black men are policed differently than white males. Bottom line. White males commit the same exact crimes. They are just treated differently. Black men are just policed way more aggressively.

    Ask yourself why.  

    The whole black on black crime thing is a myth that was painted of us when they started redlining. It's a myth that feeds into the "Black People are Dangerous" narrative. Black people don't do crime any more than whites.

    The white male number should be much higher but because they are white in America it's not. Don't forget that starting around the early 1900s black men were being tossed into jail for the slightest thing, like looking at a white woman or simply being black in a white neighborhood because of Redlining. There are also a lot of innocent black men serving life sentences. So your numbers are jumbled and incorrect no matter where they came from. 

    White males commit domestic terrorism where they kill people in Mass Amounts. They are still treated better than a black male who was pulled over for expired tags. The FBI has not called white men Terrorists even though they commit all the mass killings in America. 

    It's not a circular argument with normal people. Normal people see the pattern. The ones who don't see it, DONT WANT to see it. It's very clear.

    The issue isn't how much crime black men commit. White men commit crimes also. The issue is how long we have been put into a position to have to RESORT to commit crimes. A position was given to us because of our race. That whole pull yourself up by your bootstraps doesn't work when they won't allow you to have boots.  Poor whites are in a better position than Poor Blacks, so it's not a class thing either. Rich Blacks can still get killed by Police Brutality so it's not a money thing. Its 100% a race thing. 

    America has a race issue and it been that way for a LONG time. Americ's race issue is the root of 80% of its issues. You do know that the national anthem is racist? It's the reason they don't say the second verse.. you do know that when they wrote "We the people" blacks were slaves so they didn't mean us because We were considered property... the money has slave owners on it.. they could have been fixed that... Confederate statues all over the south, slave market houses and plantations are national landmarks...one state has a confederate flag as its STATE flag and talks about Heritage.. man...people really act confused at our kneeling.

    I can go on and on, but my point is America has let this race thing get out of control, and now it's being recognized as a world issue not just American issue but across the world people are wanting change here.

    Think about that.

    oh..we have online racism now. i thought that all what we have is HUMAN NATURE which NEVER changes.

    Btw its easy to protest in the country where "technically" nothing can happen to you. Arabs / Egyptians were using black slaves for THOUSANDS of years sold by "drummrolls" BLACK PEOPLE! - any blm protests there? No right? Dont even wanna guess why...Wondering why africans just keep immigrating from africa to europe full of white supremacist (or whatever is that bullshit racist name).

    Black people should look into yourself first before they accuse others AND they should stop abusing racism word for their own benefits and gains. If black guy goes to white part of the city. nothing happens. if white guy goes to harlem - good luck. so who is racist here?

    Maybe there IS a reason why other people are biased toward blacks. Have you ever seen to protest hispanic / asian people in that scale against racism? i have not seen ever.
    We have a saying:  leaf wont move without the wind.
    Lets think about it.

    Done here. have a nice day everyone.

    Many, if not most, of those felonies are for possession of controlled substances, and many of those are for weed which is now being legalized or decriminalized left and right across the US. That's one of the systemic problems in our justice system that needs reform.

    Young white men drive into the city to buy drugs, get busted by the cops and get bailed out by dad with maybe a misdemeanor and community service. Young black men sell drugs and get busted or maybe just get busted on possession but get charged with intent to sell anyway,  and end up in state prison for mandatory minimums so far beyond fitting the crime. Now they'll have to struggle their whole lives to find work that pays well above the poverty level, so good luck being able to afford good housing or having access to good health care. 

    Huge chunks of the prison system are designed to keep people revolving back into it because they're run for profit and produce cheap labor. It hits desperate people when they're down, then keeps them down until they're desperate enough to break a law and hits them again. 

    Anyone serving a prison sentence for nonviolent possession of weed in a state that has since legalized or decriminalized it should be released and have it expunged from their criminal record. Then we'll see how high that per capita felony percentage stacks up.

    The penalty is different depending on type of drugs, amount of drug process and  weather the intent is to use or sell.

    So it is weird when people say black people intend to "sell" drugs and they get charged with felony instead of misdemeanor.  When you sell drug that is pretty much a felony charge.

    The break in the argument is weather black men commits more crime.  Some people believe so, some people don't.

    Google Mass Incarceration and its effect on the economy.   


    The 13th amendment states that "Slavery or Involuntary servitude is illegal in the US unless its a punishment for committing a crime". This means that after all the slaves were "freed" white America was in fear of the Economy collapsing without all the free labor. So they started arresting black people for petty crimes such as loitering, fitting the "vague description" of a criminal, and even homelessness.

    This was the start of MASS INCARCERATION. It's why Black people make up around 13% of the US Population but over 70% of the US prison population. Its because America has never been able to be Economically stable without benefiting from free labor and slavery.

    It's not a debate. Black people don't commit more crimes, we just get arrested more.

    What happened to Floyd was reprehensible and Chauvin is rightfully the most hated man in America at this time.  I do fear that he may end up walking though, as they potentially overcharged him when they elevated it to 2nd degree murder.  I fear proving intent may be difficult.  That'll be ugly.

    That's all I'm willing to say on the matter here.  I find it's generally better to keep one's politics to oneself, so I only speak at the ballot box.  Stay safe out there folks, it's a crazy year.
