C_J That’s black-on-black crime Hugo
No shit.
C_J inevitably end up shooting each other over money to buy drugs to numb the pain of watching their brothers and sisters be choked to death by the authorities on TV
Black people in the US are 700 times more likely to be killed by another black person than they are to be killed unarmed by a cop.
LOL!!!!!! Sorry to ruin your frat party.
hugopal Yes, mate, but why though?
Is it because “‘dem niggas just like killin’ folks?”
Or is it because they are so utterly disenfranchised by the system ?
Do you think those numbers would stay the same if blacks and ethnic minorities were truly equal? Not just “treated as equal” or “officially equal”, but truly seen as equal by everyone?
i’m fairly sure they wouldn’t.
lol here we go again.
It’s fucking pathetic. Really is. We will be left with old episodes of garderner’s world and songs of praise once this purge of classic and old tv shows is complete.
hugopal Sure, and neither of those include ethnic Europeans.
lol. Fucking hell.
Hugopal is not inaccurate though is he? Papering over a truth to be politically correct doesn’t improve society either.
There was a time when liberals (I include myself in their number) challenged abhorrent practices based on universal values, regardless of the sensitivities of the cultural group who might engage in them.
Amps yeah it’s kind of a self-fulfilling prophecy isn’t it. The more people hold such beliefs the more it is borne out by events.
its obviously a really complex and nuanced topic though. You can’t lay all the blame at the feet of colonial attitudes and there has to be a degree of responsibility taken by the minority communities too of course.
Im not sure how well Obama ultimately served the needs of those communities and I am aware of a viewpoint which argues that BAME households have benefited from Trump’s administration but its hard to sort the fact from fiction isn’t it.
C_J BAME households have benefited from Trump’s administration but its hard to sort the fact from fiction isn’t it.
I think that’s another completely fabricated bullet point on the MAGA soundbite challenge. At Trump’s absolute peak of economic heroism the economy only arrived back at where it was under Bush before Obama came in. Plus the jobs numbers use a statistic to inflate the real numbers such as; anyone dropping off the welfare register is added to the jobs list but there are countless reasons for that happening. Becoming a drug dealer (non racist assumption attempt) is one of them or simply dying. They don’t specifically use the numbers from the standpoint of people actually starting new employment. I saw an article by Robert Reich on the subject, I’ll try and find the link, but it’s all very simple manipulation of data.
This is getting silly now….
One for Si…
Uncle Bens is rebranding its products to remove the image of the black man who portrayed ‘Uncle Ben’.
Racist bastards.
My company have “designated this Friday as a “Day of Solidarity” to celebrate Juneteenth, urging its employees to spend the day learning about the history of racism and taking steps to fight injustice. ”
So I’m on the beers now, which is nice.
There will be complaints next that blacks are not used in product branding.
mono-stereo should be OK as long as its red stripe
Millsy I am actually drinking red stripe, believe it or not.
mono-stereo I’m drinking red wine, does that count?
