I find it hard to believe that you don’t care what people call you but later in your post you say that you get “annoyed” when people ask “what are you” insinuating that you would identify as anything else but “American.” I would think you wouldn’t care either way.
No they can call me Irish or black or Japanese if they want. The question just annoys me. I know I am not Japanese and I have no problem with Japanese people so I don't mind being called it. I don't want to be asked though .
While, you’re right, most Latin people seems to hate the term, it was not white people who invented it…it was Latin people
Well I speak Spanish and I have only heard white people say it. It was probably a Latin person who only speaks English and does not understand how gendered languages work.
The left acknowledges how race and socio-economic struggles that impact marginalized communities disproportionately. There is no manipulation, it's just acknowledgment.
Everyone acknowledges it. Its not acknowledging the struggles. The criticism is in the insincere patronization and in the efforts to use these communities as cannon fodder such as with the BLM riots.
First, you're misrepresenting what the study was looking for: it was not looking to find which races "hate" other races, but rather was there a favoring of one over the other
Yeah so... racism. Favoring your own race over another one is racism. Sorry.
Every study is imperfect but when asked if you are racist un the way it was done and answering that question yes, I'd pretty indicative you re racist.
"white participants were less likely to help black help black people (and more likely to help other white people"
I could only read that studies abstract and the abstract of the studies cited.
I know they cited studies to see if wearing a hijab would decrease the likelihood of receiving help then the abstract explained that it did not reduce the likelihood of getting help but it just changed who was likely to help them. More women helped when the woman when she wore a head scarf. To me this would just be people scared to help because they maybe assume and correctly so that Islamic culture just accepts beating of women and the women don't want help. As somebody who read the Quran most of the time, I can assure you the assumption is well founded.
As for whether black people are helpedmore than non blacks when they need help.... I can only read the abstracts but here is what we call weasel language being used in the abstract;
Interestingly, discrimination against Blacks was shown when there were higher levels of emergency.
From the other abstracts I read of the studies this one cites it appears they're referring to not the level of help received but instead to how the victims are treated after being rescued by the rescuers.
I can tell you that there is inherently more risk in rescuing black people than non blacks, and perhaps that more risk is why it's not done as frequently
Let's say your typical white woman and man is in a car. Let's say they are parents and their baby is not breathing and they are pulled overbecause they are rushing to a hospital and the cop immediately takes the baby from the back of the car to save its life. You know because most ops have extensive training in first aid. The white couple is going to typically shut the fuck up and get out of the way so their child is saved.
The black couple a lot of times is not. Now it doesn't mean every white couple will be calm or every black couple will be erratic and try to stop the cop from rescuing the baby. It does mean that the white couples are more likely to be calm and thus you are at less personal risk by helping them.
It's like trying to rescue a drowning man trying to pull you down with him vs one that just goes limp and let's you pull him to shore. https://youtu.be/aVzZfirxu7k?si=sKw3RapDmzKDvvax
Anyone who doesn't recognize this pattern is likely a rich white person living in a gated community .
By the way, and I do understand I only have access to the abstract but it appears the study doesn't address the racial makeup of the crowds who help black people less.
It’s silly to hear a straight white man say, “who cares about representation” because they’ve never known a world where they didn’t have it in abundance.
Yes I have. Like I said I was the only white kid in my foster home and so I got control of the TV like once out of every 7 times and trust me I also picked black shows because it's just not fun to be the only one enjoying a show or a movie. You want somebody thereto watch it with you. At least for me watching television is a communal thing.
I think representation is probably a chick thing and mostly white chick thing. I never once heard one of the black kids in foster care (all boys home) cry about not being represented. However I did hear fat white chick's crying when Amy Schumer decided not to play Barbie.
When someone identifies themselves as a “New Yorker” or a “proud Texan”, are they being anti-patriotic?
It' s legitimately stupid. Let me be more accurate. When I say I am American, I am happy to be American but it's just a factual thing. Why would anyone be a proud New Yorker or Texan?
You literally have no control over where your mother gave birth. It's dumb to be proud of it.
The issues to focus on to help with poverty and everything that comes with it would be first and foremost: education,healthcare, housing, and employment. You're looking at the symptoms, but not the ilillnes
Incorrect. education you are partially correct with though you probablybthink the solution is throwing more money at the problem and fail to realize that places like DC have the highest cost per student and spending moremoney doesn't stip them from being the worst. So the solution isnt throwing money at problems. However school should be year round to make up for the disproportionate academic decline.
Healthcare- um.no, disproportionate health outcomes are due to a cycle that is too nuanced to get into here as well s genetics. Lets hust say socializing medicine and having 2 year wait times like Canada is not going to help the fact that black people eat unhealthy
Housing- sure, you till havent put together that forcing banks to give mlre risky loans caused the banks to need billions to be bailed out in the early 2000s or noticedthat New york deciding to utilize rent control to help ith housing actually has the highest rents in the country. So you need some pattern recognition skills here.
Employment- correct but again not in the ways you suggest that make things worse. Clamp down on illegal immigration because black jobs are the firat to go. Stop the minimum wage hikes that are proven to increase unemployment of african americans but have zero impact on whute comunities. We also need to spread the "ban the box" initiative to every state because there is no reason that a felon is struggling tonfind employment as a dishwasher.

@thett3
I’m probably going to have to shell out like $10k a year per kid despite already paying thousands in taxes to public schools to avoid them getting groomed by freaks lol
I can't afford that but I told the wife be prepared to homeschooling at a drop of the hat. Fortunately my son's school is pretty good. There are gay teachers there but they are not grooming children they are not part of the woke mob they are just normal dudes who are teachers and just happen to be gay.
I am ready to pull him at any minute if this changes though.
The entire pornographic books in the library controversy is so bizarre to me. I’m not sure how much it specifically matters
To be fair. I don't think it matters much with high-school kids. They appear to be targeting mostly elementary school kids in these incidents I jeep finding.

I am an hour in BTW, and he is now saying that governments who bail out banks should not be able to dictate how those banks spend the money.
I agree with most of what he says but this is the one area where all I can think of is fuckem they can refuse the money if they don't like being told what to do.
I agree with Sowell that not being controlled by the government in how to spend the bail out money would be more profitable to the bank and a better result to th tax payer, but all I can think of is fuck them for Taki g the money and let them fail or be your bitch if they take it.

Yesterday I was at a hotel in Miami. Only 2 people behind the front desk with a line of people waiting to be checked in. We need more immigrants. We need more workers
You are not going to convince anyone that Miami lacks enough immigrants. I lived half of my life nin South Florida and Miami in particular you seem to run into more apanish speakers than English speakers. That hotel needs to be punished for not raising wages enough to attract good workers. Not punished by government but by hotel guests.
After all, the country let your ancestors in and your people are still minimum wage workers. Should we have let your family in? Was it a mistake?
Yeah, huge mistake. The Indians should have been hitting us with bows and arrows the second we stepped off the boat. Their open border policy caused them to essentially be genocided.

I was looking through the patent office and digging through documents on the dark web s well as recording with NXVM people and tons and tons of boring document.
Why did I dig so deep into this odd sex cult?
I kept running into comments that said stuff like
"This stuff really works and changed my life, but yeah it's definitely a cult and bad"
So I kept wondering. Why are these people getting so many good results in life?
You better have good discernment if you look into this stuff because some material is definitely intended to get followers to do free labor for him.
However I ran into one compelling thing. Keith Ranier taught that low self esteem is the result of believing you don't have many options. He paired this with teaching that the average person has about 500 limiting beliefs and that if you get through those limiting beliefs than you will have high self esteem because you will realize all th options you have.

here is a study that asks groups how much they hate other races essentially and whites were the least racist

That’s what you don’t understand: The intention is not political, it’s about humanity
I understand why you think that. You think the words were taken as a way to be self descriptive as opposed to something another group describes you as. I didn't debate you on it, becausei am considering that opinion. What you stated seems feasible and I am still schewing on it. I also don't think you can chalk it up to that.
I disagree that, that sort of ownership of language matters. Maybe that is because I speak 4 languages f and I just automatically accept whatever the people in those languages call me.
You want to maintain your anger toward these groups
You don't know anything about me. I don't have anger towards these groups. I see these groups that engage in that sort of thing as either misguided or victims of leftists. Especially ially groups like Hispanic who are called Latinx because white people don't understand gendered languages and how they work.
I really empathize with marginalized communities, and I see most of this nonsense as intentional divisiveness meant to create hostilities between groups because leftists can sense that these catholic Hispanics and socially conservative religious African Americans have different values than they do and so they exploit them through divisive language.
Here are some opinions I have because I really emphasize with these people,
1. Bans on things that exploit the poor as if they are farm animals such as paid plasma donations, and surrogate pregnancy.
2. End things that harm th black family such as welfare policies that encourage single motherhood and ending the war on drugs so that way black fathers can be in their kid's lives more as well as dropping the stigma from being locked up that makes it so hard to get a job and support a family.
3. Taking measures so less African americans and poor babies are murdered in the womb.
Being against woke nonsense isn't about hatred towards minorities.
representation is also about being able to connect and enjoy a film on a personal level
It's not needed. Quite frankly if you need to see yourself represented on screen you're probably a racist. I didn't cry when I was in fostercare when the whole house watched Martin and listened to Tupac all day.
And could you supply those studies you are speaking of?
My next post I will share one. There are some metastudies on the phenomenon as well, but I assumed you would know intuitively since I assume you are white with an out group bias.
Your fear of change is not rational. We have linguists and historians who study writings based on the context of the time they were written
I believe my criticism was of the speed of change not the slow subtle shifts that happen over hundreds of years naturally.
There are absolutely instances where you would use pronouns with the person being referred to present,
I am not speaking on anybody behalf who isn't a child. It would have to be an extremely rare circumstance where somebody is trying to rape them or something and I yell "leave him alone"
But if I speak on their behalf to save them and they say "it's mam" . I am likely to just say never mind and walk away.
Then why don’t people cry as much about festivals celebrating Irish or Italian heritage as much as they do those that celebrate black culture
I don't speak out about any of them. I just offered my opinion because I felt prompted. In fact when I was in Columbus the had a yearly Black walk to remind black people to be healthy given the disparate health outcomes and I thought that was an incredible ideal. At least that one had purpose unless the festivals where people celebrate things they have no control over.
In fact I probably bitch more about the white stuff. The reason being is nobody ever asks me if I am black but they will start talking about what they are "I am Italian, hey frank what are you?" I am Irish and John is polish. What are you Wylted?" I usually get annoyed and say "I am American dumbass".
It makes me so happy when I meet an immigrant and I befriend them and they become comfortable enough to start saying "I am American" the way I do. I am not Iriah or European or African or Mexican. I am American. That's all I am.
Batman is still a straight white guy, and straight white guys want to see straight white guys they can look up to. And everyone deserves that….
I like Miles Morales better and before you bring up that he is still male one of my favorite characters. I probably identify more with him, though he is better than me so not by much.
If you’re a straight white man, there are centuries worth of stories and characters depicting that experience in a million different ways.
White people didn't invent story telling. There are centuries of stories, hell thousands of years of stories in africa, Mexico, Greece, China. Music that goes back as well. Whites just aren't that great.

Probably because debates like the following are pointless
And even if you get a more competent noob opponent like intelligence or weakeredge their arguments are stuff you have seen a million times and won't be challenging. It doesn't mean you will beat the more competent noobs because voting is so poor here, but it's not going to be challenging because they can't make you rethink your views with rebuttals you already exposed yourself to and defeated before you even thought about creating the debate.
It's pointless to debate midwits and noobs other than as som sort of ego lift or to maybe be persuasive but debate is not about persuasiveness so probably pointless even for that purpose.

Telling people to not groom children is not the same as saying thy shouldn't be educated about sex. You don't need teachers telling 7 year olds what type of sex they like having to ensure teens act responsibly about sex.
Why do leftists think that you need to sexualize children and teach them about butt sex to keep them from premarital sex and teen pregnancy and disease. In fact show me the data that supports your premise that grooming children somehow prevents them from being sexual degenerates.

marginalized people have autonomy over how they are perceived
This statement is the one I take most issue with and is my biggest issue. It's the left thinking people should control how they are perceived.
.it's none of your business how you are perceived. It's none of my business how I am perceived.
What is my business is how I perceive others.
Let's go down the list where this is a pervasive leftist belief.
Fat acceptance community- cries all day that people perceive fatness as unhealthy and unattractive. Attention FA community.it is none of your business if people think you are unattractive or if they think being fat is unhealthy. How you feel about yourself and others is what matters not how they feel about you. Get over it.
Trans people- pronouns are not what anybody is referred to. I don't walk up to somebody and say he or call them she. I call them by their name. Pronouns typically only happening when referring to somebody and usually they aren't around. It might be your business if you are called mam or sir or Mrs or Mr. But pronouns such as he or she that are never said in front of you, because it is rude to talk about somebody in their presence in that manner, is not your concern. Fuck you, you don't have a right to bend my reality to your will. If you see yourself as a male or female or an it that is your business it is none of my business.
Representation- every leftist wants representation. It's stupid. They bitch about not enough gays or fats or blacks in film. Nobody cares. I don't want to be represented in film. I don't want to watch a movie where a short fat guy is the main hero. I don't want somebody to represent me, I ant some sort of figure that represents the values I care about. Preferably somebody better than me so I can seek to emulate them. Not somebody who reflects back to me who I am. I already can look in the mirror and see that. I live my life I already know what it's like to be me, show me Batman Fuckers.
Representation is another thing where somebody is trying to force a perception. Fuck off. It's none of your business how I perceive you. Whats your business is how you perceive yourself and whether you act with integrity or not.

@bronskibeat
The general population, as well as all major institutions in America, are comprised primarily of white people. As a result, “white supremacy” is a more dangerous concept than “black supremacy.” Black people are still a minority, and they will not experience the same access to power that the white population maintains simply because…there are more white people. So, you’re right that the two are not treated the same, because the threat is not the same.
First of all. White people having institutional power is not dangerous. Every study shows that whites have less in group bias than non whites and when we break it down by politics than we see that whites who are conservative have less in group bias than any other race and that white liberals have an outgroup bias which does not exist in non whites.
To me that eems like even with large amounts of power that whites having it will be more fair than groups who have larger in group biases.
Language evolves, it is expected to evolve. But people such as yourself only care when it evolves in regards to marginalized demographics
No it's fucking annoying either way. It's ficking annoying to hear stuff called "mid" or to hear somebody say "no cap" or whatever the hell else is going on with language. The bigger issue is intentionally changing terms for a political purpose. If we change terms to much than you can get misunderstandings of important things. For example the bill of rights. If our understanding of the word freedom differs from those who wrote the bill of rights than we can get into issues where courts think they can restrict speech more than the founders intended. Or we can read other old documents and really tarnish the legacy of those who came before us by misunderstanding their words to mean something other than intended. I don't want my words read 200 years from now and have my idiot great grand kids think I meant something other than what I meant when I wrote them.
while a celebration of white culture would be racist, a celebration of Irish-American or Italian-American culture would not be racist….for reasons, I hope, would be obvious.
It's not obvious and that is a stupid statement. I ill tart by saying I have been to Irish fest and German heritage fests and it is all dumb. These people are not Irish or German they are American and it's actually disrespectful to claim as somebody born in America "I am Irish".
I will say though that if black culture is Olay to celebrate than white culture is. If you don't require them to sub divide it into Ghana or south African or Egyptian culture than requiring whites to divide it up that way is dumb.
I'll leave the explanation to the actual linguists

We are comparing one world view to another. I can see the confusion . I am acknowledging a fair interpretation of the woke world view while also explaining how it differs from the correct world view. When I bring up LGBTQP it is as a way to explore the arguments you hold without necessarily agreeing with the frame work and redefining of words.
Queer is a nonsense word in my world view and at worst means Gay male who identifies as a male.
In the woke world view it means whatever they need it to mean to trick heterosexuals such as Tom boys attracted to males or even bisexual women who really are heterosexual but just have a more fluid sexuality into believing they are part of the movement.

Dude there is this game the left is playing with the English language where they think by controlling definitions they can control mindset.
Queer just meant gay male before. People used to refer to gays as "being funny" queer literally means funny (southern for different) . These people were not referring to people who were gender fluid or very fluid in their sexual orientation when they said it. The left plays this game with language as a stupid trick to attempt to make senior citizens look bigoted. It's a fact. Here I som other examples
Negro- literally the Spanish word for black and clearly just means the same thing as African American. However if I said it on my way to work it would get me attacked on the bus
Oriental- just a way to say Asian many older Asians still refer to themselves as being Orientals. The left wants to make 75 year old people look racist so thy randomly decide to change the term for whatever reason.
Everybody knows racism is bad and here is how it was defined before
Racism- hatred of or having a feeling of superiority over other races on the basis of racial qualities.
Now they know that maybe one in a million people are actually racist by that definition. So they have changed the definition to be the following
Racism- white people . Those with a higher social status in society and are white automatically have that status based on their skin color, oh and by the way since only oppressors can be racist any non white person who thinks they are superior to others based on their skin color are not racist.
It's really a stupid game you guys play and it is recent. Greek words in 500bc meant the exact same thing in 500AD because nobody played those games with language. The left see it as a tool to make senior citizens look racist so they change definitions every 5 years.

First off I called you a gymcel not an incel. Although yes I do assume being a spam makes it difficult to get laid.
The corruption in 3rd world nations are due to a few things.
. Countris where the average IQ is 70, which makes the population ungovernable as well as giving them an inability to govern. The a white nation going full communist would fair better than these countries being free. These are also low trust societies. Give me a high trust society with high IQs as a baseline and then I am interested in discussing whether high regulation or freedom is preferable.
It doesn't solve the problems these countries with bad demographics have. Those countries can only be fixed with a strong religious majority, preferably chriatian but even then sometimes they can get some pretty weird denominations of Christianity and. Church leaders who essentially create cults. So they probably need catholicism so there is some central figure to temper their nature.
Idk how you can avoid degeneracy if you're pro-freedom it's one or the other.
That is a fair statement. Its one I am torn on. I do believe tha people should be allowed to do meth if they want or to cut their dick off and have a tail surgically atta he'd to them. So yes I would leave a lot of room in the laws for degeneracy. I do object to individuals not use legal social pressures to punish corporations who spread degeneracy by not buying from them. I also would oppose children being given meth or transitioned or taught degeneracy in public school. That isn't freedom that is indoctrination.
I support th legal right of people to be degenerates. I strongly oppose society not applying social pressures to those individuals who choose that ort of lifestyle though.
I would rather live in a degenerate nation than one where the government atte.pts to regulate what you do with your body (except when it comes to abortion)
I think strong immigration policies and churches having a strong influence on individuals is the best way to keep the country from sliding into some sort of communist/fascist hellhole.
I think ideally the political parties should not be left vs right but fundamentalists bs libertarians who would balance each other out.

If RM cited Huffington post for one of his arguments, you would dismiss it as a left wing bias; if they cite FOX News, you would call FOX News RINO trash. You can expect the equal and opposite reaction from RM or Roosevelt if you cite left or right wing sources as if they are factual an unbiased.
I don't do that. I think it's fine to cite a left wing newspaper or a leftwing think tank.
Nearly every mainstream news organization for example correctly reported the fact that 9/11 did happen. I usually even take their word for the facts they present me unless I have reason to doubt it, and I will still give the benefit of the doubt.
You will never see me dismiss outright a claim based on the source having a political bias. It doesn't mean the source is lying about th facts.

I'm glad I changed your mind. It's why I'm on here. Plus, I want to run for POTUS and this is practice.
You didn't change my mind. I debunk half of my own arguments before I even make them, I just also acknowledge when somebody else has done the same. I am not Gere to spread a message or to impart my wisdom on the site.
In fact I think people om this site are selling themselves short if they only debate what they believe, and yes that extends to tiny arguments in the forum section.
I do think that they slow shift to the left has hurt cities like Detroit, however you just happen to be correct that single party rule and poverty are bigger impacts and more harmful. It's one of the reasons a lot of people thought the party realignment that focused on ideology was a mistake.
Barry Goldwater headed the party realignment which turned from being largely non ideological to a conservative vs liberal bent. Mitt Rodney's father was the loudest opponent of this party reallignment
