What does that picture suppose to even mean? so there were only 120k "right wingers" in 1981? Or extremists?
I detect a large deposit of bullshit yet again from your articles.
It honestly scares me people like you actually exist and think like you do.

Yeah,there were only 120k right wingers in 1981. Now only 8000. You are free to be in denial.

No, I'm not gonna keep it to myself. My fucking country is being destroyed by the woke ideology. I'm fucking angry and I have a right to be. Lawlessness and hatred towards white men is being promoted based upon a total myth. There is no fucking widespread racism against black people. Black people can get into Harvard with like a 22 on the ACT exam. Everyone bends over backwards to give them every advantage possible.

So to see people acting as if all this violence against us is justified? Its disgusting. The left wing media ought to be ashamed of themselves but of course they aren't, because they have no morals or integrity left. Its all about their agenda to stir up hatred so they can pit the rest of the country against white males.

Hear hear! (although I do loathe agreeing with you =D ) We even had a Black president who was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for doing essentially nothing.

One of the most disturbing things is the prevalence of hypnotic catchphrases, such as, "against racism", and "Black Lives Matter", which are repeated until they have lost all meaning.


A relevant post from yesterday's Imgur:



Regardless of how "offensive" it may be in woke culture to say, "All lives matter.", logically and according to the rules of the English language, that sentence expresses equality, while, "Black lives matter.", sounds elitist. As opposed to Asian lives? White lives? Native American lives?

In human history, every group has oppressed another group and has been oppressed by yet a different group. Obsessing about tit for tat reparations for all brutality throughout human history will require at least 200,000 years of accounting.

It feels to me as though we are being fed simplistic, thought-terminating cliches aimed at dividing the 99%ers.

While human trafficking, widespread political corruption, water-hoarding by Nestle, clear-cutting of rainforests, etc., continue unabated. We're being played.

Divide and Conquer has been The Man's M.O. since at least the British Raj.

What was the population then? 50-60 million? So you are saying that japan was super right wing back then because only 120000 people out of 60 or so million. full of shit.

I think you are confusing people who register themselves as right wing member and those who are right wing thinking but not register as member. The decrease number of right wing members also suggest the decrease number of right wing thinking Japanese people. This is supported by the fact that majority Japanese now support immigrant workers and giving foreigners permanent residence.

I really didn't expect Japan to be part of this movement that is going on since they barely have any Non-Japanese citizens.

To say the very least....THANK YOU JAPAN!

As a non-White female American conservative, I must say that you have an ignorant, bigoted view of American conservatives, many of whom are of Color, secular, and far, FAR more open-minded and accepting of me, for example, than are immigrants of Color.

Thanks to my ethnicity and gender alone, every liberal I meet immediately assumes that I am also a liberal. Conservatives, on the other hand, tend not to make such assumptions and to treat me as a *gasp* human being.

40 years from now some kid studying in school about the corona virus:

"So what was the main attributor to the corona virus truly gaining traction? Dumb ass fucks literally thought mass protests/riots which include extreme close proximity and at times even spitting on each other/cops was a good idea in the midst of a virus that literally spreads by breath, what a buncha jokers amirite?"

^ exact words, taken directly from a future academic book.

UH OH, what if, maybe, I know this is going to be controversial but, What if right-wingers are actually quite diverse and hold a VARIETY of beliefs which sometimes even include left-wing beliefs! OH MY, it's like, they're actually human-beings or something! hard to believe right?



ps. being serious though the majority of left-wingers are sheltered rich kids who not only are uneducated about their own country but probably have no clue about the outside world, where as most right-wingers are extremely educated and actually know the history of their own country and love learning about other cultures. yikes

And black people are still experiencing police brutality and dying because of it.

Because they commit the most murder/robberiee? Check fbi stats.
Black people get more privilege then us "white privilege folk"

In California universities they make asian/white people get higher scores and minorities can get lower to get in. So oppressed.

12% of the population sure likes the play the victim card a lot. Funny they think when whites become a minority in like 25 years, they think they'll be the majority. Maybe they should stop killing themselves(highest murder rate) first.

Oh, perfect time to copy and paste what I said to Rune a while ago:
past said:
That stereotype, in particular, is a self-fulfilling prophecy. Because due to that stereotype more police are at black neighborhoods which increases the likelihood of them getting caught over whites who may do it at the same rates, which leads to more black fathers to jail, which leads to single-income households, and which vastly increases the chances of a said child committing a crime due to the poor neighborhood in which they were raised.

Blacks have been extremely disproportionally targeted by the police(Proof
):
"engage in more misconduct (unjustified stops, corruption, verbal abuse, excessive
force) in disadvantaged, nonwhite neighborhoods (Epp et al., 2014; Kane, 2002;
Mastrofski, Reisig & McCluskey, 2002; Terrill & Reisig, 2003). This includes ‘stop
and frisk’ practices in poor ethnic-minority communities, as research in New York
neighborhoods demonstrated (Fagan et al., 2010).

These studies demonstrate that policing is typically more aggressive in neighborhoods
that are both economically disadvantaged and populated by a subordinate ethnic minority."-pg 6-7

"Regarding the argument that such stops are due solely to local crime rates, the study found that the stops increased 500% over the past decade while the city’s crime rate declined; that the efficiency of the stops (the arrest rate) decreased by 50%; and that this decline was disproportionately concentrated in black neighborhoods. "-pg 5

"A recent study reported that the race of the driver is not a factor in routine, ordinary traffic stops (e.g., for speeding or other driving infractions), but drivers’ race is a predictor of ‘investigatory stops,’which are based on more minor violations and conducted in the hope of making an arrest or for the purpose of harassment. Such stops are a pretext intended to uncover other offenses (such as the possession of illegal drugs or weapons) rather than simply a driving violation. Such investigatory stops are largely targeted at young black males (Epp, Maynard-Moody & Haider-Markel, 2014)"-pg 2-3

Oh, and btw keep in mind this mounting evidence is the tip of the iceberg, as the whole article is pretty much just stating how unfairly the police treats black and ethnic groups compared to whites. It's crazy really, how a stereotype can manifest itself into a self-fulfilling prophecy like this. You are now more on the lookout for exclusively black people committing crimes because you expect them to do so out of this stereotype, and this causes more arrests on black people. That's kind of funny in a twisted sort of way.


As for the other part about affirmative action. You do know that black people are more likely to be raised in poverty and all that, I'm assuming. This means that black people on average don't have as many resources to better education and might have to work, on top of schoolwork they already had to do(as they would probably need that money). I think affirmative action is pretty justified for those reasons. America is actually pretty lacking when it comes to economic mobility or people getting out of poverty.

poverty especially poverty trap stuff like redlining and other systemic racism is the source for high crime rate of blacks, same logic applies to poor countries we usually have high crime rates too because you know desperation for basic needs

As new data shows early signs of economic recovery, black workers are being left out
https://www.cnbc.com/2020/06/05/coronavirus-recovery-black-workers-are-being-left-out-data-shows.html

so im not sure what you mean more privilege here because economically that is not true at all since despite black people there are less than 15% of the total population they are like second rank on poverty last time i check

I didn't say white genocide. I said hatred towards white people. The Democrat Party promotes hatred towards white people. I don't want to make this another essay post by me, so I will give you a brief description of all the findings in this links.

White cops are no more likely to shoot black suspects, than black cops are. In addition, 90-95% of people shot by cops were actively attacking the police.

https://msutoday.msu.edu/news/2019/the-truth-behind-racial-disparities-in-fatal-police-shootings/?fbclid=IwAR1S3ayGxrH0dBiuS8eDNL4RqWz3b_gNPcAIIBvp7JuC-xoy4Q63IZ8DHxk

Harvard university found "On the most extreme use of force –officer-involved shootings – we find no racial differences in either the raw data or when contextual factors are taken into account."

https://scholar.harvard.edu/fryer/publications/empirical-analysis-racial-differences-police-use-force?fbclid=IwAR0YfmULirxGFSgMcqYMJ8xAeqYYSTMEJyBtggHLzzxvMYpOEi6kOcP1gcU

Washington Post found that exactly 15 unarmed black suspects were shot by police in 2018.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/2019/national/police-shootings-2019/?fbclid=IwAR1oLGknM3FbdqMkFda3iBDXQhfTHh06gfG5_VCYjk-xw8ID3ll6UVvPCWc

To give you perspective on how tiny these numbers are...

270 people are killed by lightning strikes in the US every year.
120 people are killed by deer.
100 people are killed by bees.
24 people were killed by champagne corks.

You are more likely to be killed by champagne corks, bees, and deer, than you are to be killed by a police officer if you are an unarmed black suspect. And this is the super liberal Washington Post saying this so don't say its from "right-wing media sources."

You know who does kill other black people a lot? Criminals... Criminals kill 7,500 black people. But instead of focusing on them, let's focus on the 15 unarmed black people killed by police, many of whom were probably killed by other black cops?

ok you got some to me reliable up to date studies on that but is that some conclusive studies already or they say in the end again that further studies are needed to change the scientific consensus? because its the same thing with other social science studies like the scientific consensus in willpower is that its limited but new studies says its not limited at all although they say it needs further studies

but your washingtonpost interactive graph says this though about blacks
249 people shot and killed by police match your filters (25%)

EDIT:

saw the 15 unarmed stats now but for whites its 25 unarmed so not much difference there although ye the blacks are still 15% of the total population only compared to 70% of whites there

but if you are only focusing on the 15 unarmed deaths then ye ok i can understand that too

Its funny you say that because I've always wondered the complete opposite. Why the fuck do left-wingers like anime?

Anime has ultra feminine girls who devote themselves to their boyfriends, promotes traditional gender roles and nuclear families, it promotes love as the most important thing for both men and women's happiness over career, it does not try to propagandize us into thinking of the world as some kind of hierarchy of oppression with white males oppressing all the women and minorities. It does not encourage women to see men as their competition and oppressors in life but rather encourages a relationship between men and women that is special and harmonious and does not require that we compete with one another. In-fact, there's nothing promoting animosity towards whites, conservatives, or males at all.

Its almost like... Like... Maybe we don't care if Japanese people are white, American, speak English, or are Christian? Maybe a lot of us have had trouble being accepted for who we are too? Maybe we think YOU are the racists and we're sick of watching movies and TV shows that constantly portray us as bad guys?

NOPE.

In fact, I rarely if ever link anime with politics....the few times I do that I don't get to enjoy it very much.

TBF tho...I should've said "Far Right Wingers"...

saw the 15 unarmed stats now but for whites its 25 unarmed so not much difference there although ye the blacks are still 15% of the total population only compared to 70% of whites there

but if you are only focusing on the 15 unarmed deaths then ye ok i can understand that too


Consider that 10 million people a year are arrested by the police, and the 15 unarmed people who got shot seems minuscule.

Its actually amazing it doesn't happen more often. There are almost 1 million police officers in the US, out of 1 million people, there are bound to be some scumbags like Derek Chauvin. But you won't see anybody on the right justifying his actions. Last night I saw Justice Jeanine give an emotional speech on exactly what happened with George Floyd and utterly condemn his actions.

But the fact is, this is really really rare. And these isolated incidents are being twisted by the media in our country to try and force people to accept a narrative that racism is widespread and that the crazy things they are trying to push forward need to be implemented to solve the widespread racism. They want to eliminate the police force now, they want to make white people pay reparations for slavery, in cities that are being looted, people are putting up signs saying "black owned business." In other words, "this business is black, so don't loot us, go loot the white people's businesses."

Not only that, the Democrat Party is trying to push the narrative that white racism is the reason why blacks aren't succeeding to distract from the fact that their own policies are failing black people. All of the major cities and states where black people are failing are controlled by Democrats, often times, black Democrats. The mayor of Minneapolis? Super liberal. Mayor of NYC? Super liberal. Mayor of Baltimore? Black Democrat. Detroit? Another Democrat. governor of Michigan? Super liberal. Mayor of Chicago? An openly gay, black Democrat woman. Atlanta in George? Another black Democrat woman.

So why does the black community keep supporting the party that fails them over and over and over again? The reason why is because of this lie being pushed to them that Republicans are racist, that we hate them, and want them to fail. The real message is simply that Democrat policies don't work, they result in economic and social failure and every time this happens they rely on rich, white conservatives to bail them out of their own financial ruin.

As a non-White female American conservative, I must say that you have an ignorant, bigoted view of American conservatives, many of whom are of Color, secular, and far, FAR more open-minded and accepting of me, for example, than are immigrants of Color.

Um, not my fault the majority of American Right-Wingers tend to be White, Christian, Conservative, and AGAINST diversity, AGAINST gays, AGAINST immigrants, etc.

Take it up with your fellow conservatives! Not me.

ps. being serious though the majority of left-wingers are sheltered rich kids who not only are uneducated about their own country but probably have no clue about the outside world, where as most right-wingers are extremely educated and actually know the history of their own country and love learning about other cultures. yikes

I know you're not American so I hope what you're saying here is more indicative to YOUR country because it sure as fuck isn't about America....which is what I was alluding to.

Ryuk9428 said:
Its funny you say that because I've always wondered the complete opposite. Why the fuck do left-wingers like anime?

Anime has ultra feminine girls who devote themselves to their boyfriends, promotes traditional gender roles and nuclear families, it promotes love as the most important thing for both men and women's happiness over career, it does not try to propagandize us into thinking of the world as some kind of hierarchy of oppression with white males oppressing all the women and minorities. It does not encourage women to see men as their competition and oppressors in life but rather encourages a relationship between men and women that is special and harmonious and does not require that we compete with one another. In-fact, there's nothing promoting animosity towards whites, conservatives, or males at all.

Its almost like... Like... Maybe we don't care if Japanese people are white, American, speak English, or are Christian? Maybe a lot of us have had trouble being accepted for who we are too? Maybe we think YOU are the racists and we're sick of watching movies and TV shows that constantly portray us as bad guys?

Trust me my dude....I'd love nothing more than to have a girl devoted to me giving out blow jobs like it's second nature to her.

You must have me confused with the OTHER type of lefty...

Anyways....my generalization of Right-Wingers wasn't fair....I should've said "Far Right Wingers".

I obviously don't consider every Right-Winger a Far Right person.

Because they commit the most murder/robberiee? Check fbi stats.
Black people get more privilege then us "white privilege folk"

In California universities they make asian/white people get higher scores and minorities can get lower to get in. So oppressed.

12% of the population sure likes the play the victim card a lot. Funny they think when whites become a minority in like 25 years, they think they'll be the majority. Maybe they should stop killing themselves(highest murder rate) first.
Oh, perfect time to copy and paste what I said to Rune a while ago:
past said:
That stereotype, in particular, is a self-fulfilling prophecy. Because due to that stereotype more police are at black neighborhoods which increases the likelihood of them getting caught over whites who may do it at the same rates, which leads to more black fathers to jail, which leads to single-income households, and which vastly increases the chances of a said child committing a crime due to the poor neighborhood in which they were raised.

Blacks have been extremely disproportionally targeted by the police(Proof
):
"engage in more misconduct (unjustified stops, corruption, verbal abuse, excessive
force) in disadvantaged, nonwhite neighborhoods (Epp et al., 2014; Kane, 2002;
Mastrofski, Reisig & McCluskey, 2002; Terrill & Reisig, 2003). This includes ‘stop
and frisk’ practices in poor ethnic-minority communities, as research in New York
neighborhoods demonstrated (Fagan et al., 2010).

These studies demonstrate that policing is typically more aggressive in neighborhoods
that are both economically disadvantaged and populated by a subordinate ethnic minority."-pg 6-7

"Regarding the argument that such stops are due solely to local crime rates, the study found that the stops increased 500% over the past decade while the city’s crime rate declined; that the efficiency of the stops (the arrest rate) decreased by 50%; and that this decline was disproportionately concentrated in black neighborhoods. "-pg 5

"A recent study reported that the race of the driver is not a factor in routine, ordinary traffic stops (e.g., for speeding or other driving infractions), but drivers’ race is a predictor of ‘investigatory stops,’which are based on more minor violations and conducted in the hope of making an arrest or for the purpose of harassment. Such stops are a pretext intended to uncover other offenses (such as the possession of illegal drugs or weapons) rather than simply a driving violation. Such investigatory stops are largely targeted at young black males (Epp, Maynard-Moody & Haider-Markel, 2014)"-pg 2-3

Oh, and btw keep in mind this mounting evidence is the tip of the iceberg, as the whole article is pretty much just stating how unfairly the police treats black and ethnic groups compared to whites. It's crazy really, how a stereotype can manifest itself into a self-fulfilling prophecy like this. You are now more on the lookout for exclusively black people committing crimes because you expect them to do so out of this stereotype, and this causes more arrests on black people. That's kind of funny in a twisted sort of way.


As for the other part about affirmative action. You do know that black people are more likely to be raised in poverty and all that, I'm assuming. This means that black people on average don't have as many resources to better education and might have to work, on top of schoolwork they already had to do(as they would probably need that money). I think affirmative action is pretty justified for those reasons. America is actually pretty lacking when it comes to economic mobility or people getting out of poverty.


Its good to see leftists admit that they don't support equality, and think racial discrimination against whites is great.

isnt most rich and urbanize states are controlled by democrats anyway like New York and California?

urbanize areas got high income inequality overall anyway and systemic racism like redlining for example is hard to fight against the capitalist lobbyist or crony capitalism anyway that even the democrat politicians are known for supporting now with neoliberalism capitalism

so i doubt even the republicans that are pro neoliberalism too can do better

also how about reports of republican states of voter suppression and gerrymandering

The race of the cop isn't important, more so if the shooting was race-based(so it'll be better if you look at the victim). As for the second part. Go here and click on the blue part in that article you linked 1st:
"The findings – published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, or PNAS"
And you'll see this study which stated that Black people were more likely more harmless when they were shot which could or might imply bias, though does not by any means proves it:
" Black civilians fatally shot by police (relative to White civilians) are more likely to be unarmed and less likely to pose an immediate threat to officers."-Racial Disparities by Type of Shooting

It's also pretty important to note, that this study specified that it was talking about actual fatalities, not the intent. It also already said early on that 40% of officer's shots miss. So there's that too.
I am also going to mention that the study concluded saying that it couldn't find any racial disparity when they did their models("No model showed significant evidence of anti-Black or -Hispanic disparity, although evidence for anti-Black and anti-Hispanic disparities was stronger when civilians were young (Model 1 vs. 2).")However, even then, the article made it pretty clear that the racial disparity shouldn't be conflated with racial bias which wasn't discussed in the original link either.

As for the second source, I think you should probably do a double-take on this point: "There is no fucking widespread racism against black people."

As for the Havard link. Within 2 sentences it said this:
"On non-lethal uses of force, blacks and Hispanics are more than fifty percent more likely to experience some form of force in interactions with police. Adding controls that account for important context and civilian behavior reduces, but cannot fully explain, these disparities. "
This implies that there might be some discrimination involved since the disparities can't be fully explained with the behavior of the civilian and the context.

I skipped Washington post because I don't have a subscription to it and it doesn't allow me to see that particular article.

I know you were focused on shootings since those were deg's arguments, but when it comes to other stuff there might an actual bias that could be present when it comes to the police. It's not usually police shootings, in particular, that are criticized as much as police brutality broadly. Which unarmed shootings are used as an example of. Whether these come from bias is unknown as your first source looked at fatal shootings which only a very small portion of were unarmed, so there was no strong data on it and the study didn't even look at intent, to begin with. And the second didn't even talk about unarmed shootings.

Anyway, as to why the police are a focus instead of criminals. Well, societal wise police are expected to be the good guys, so it's disheartening and scary to hear that they might be killing unarmed black people for no good reason or would beat them up. Criminals are who the police are supposed to catch. If it is the case that they might be hateful and violent towards black people as well, then there's an internal problem with the system.

Closing for gaps due to how poorly America's economic mobility is a way to make up for the more extreme discrimination in the past that made it so that black people were in poverty. It's not there to screw over white people. Moreso to help black people and acknowledge that they had more obstacles when getting to the same place.

Just to add the this the definition of "unarmed" often wildly varies in how they're reported as mentioned in a recent politifact article. An armed individual can include everything from a person with a toy gun to a person in a vehicle.

Not to mention data in general for police interactions is extremely limited as mentioned in all of their links. Any major data they release is done voluntarily and many fail to do so. Washington post for example openly relies on a combination of news accounts, social media postings and police reports to gather their database which they only started doing in 2015.

They're not racist though. You get one guy every few years who is bad enough for the extremely observant left-wing media to catch wind of. And those incidents are enough for BLM to advocate getting rid of the police force? And I don't wanna see anyone pretend this isn't BLM's official position because its right here on their front page...

https://blacklivesmatter.com/

https://blacklivesmatter.com/defundthepolice/

I think we are owed a real explanation for why BLM wants this. 90-95% of black people who were killed by police were actively attacking them. That leaves, in the most generous numbers, 24 black people were killed by police who should not have been.

In a country of 330 million people. We have 24 wrongful black deaths, at the very highest of possibilities. And that doesn't even account for the fact that police make mistakes, they think somebody was reaching for a gun and it turns out they weren't. They enter a dark apartment, can't see too well and somebody makes a quick movement. Shit happens. I'm willing to bet the vast majority of those 12-24 wrongful deaths were accidents. Not intentional killings. This means the number of black people intentionally killed by cops every year is extraordinarily small.

But this extraordinarily small number justifies defunding the police force? It justifies destroying people's businesses and livelihoods? It justifies people going out and murdering police officers? It justifies mobs of people going out and beating people up because they are white? It justifies allowing anarchy and lawlessness to rule the streets?

If the police are defunded, I guarantee you, a lot more black lives are gonna die. And the people on the city council in Minneapolis are already telling people they shouldn't complain and ask for the police to come back when their homes are broken into. Which indicates they've considered the fact that crime will increase with a defunded police force, and they simply don't care.

Japan is maybe the country with the most apolitical population. Trying to force the Western left-right scheme and its daily agenda on Japan's political system does not make any sense whatsoever. People will vote LDP anyway and the current PM will enforce the way of policy as he sees fit. I won't blame Soros, but those protesting are probably living in a bubble since mass protests are maybe the most unjapanese thing to do. Even if they happen, protests are most likely influenced by foreign ideologies and interventionism or due to economic reasons. Even the large-scale protests of the 1960s were basically 2 foreign ideologies clashing on Japanese soil.

With regards to culture Japan is the prime example for a monocultural society in ethnography - period. You really need to pick something like the buraku to find any resemblance of a cultural minority. But even they share the same overall culture and are basically a stigmated remnant of the bakufu-han system. And no, watching South Korean soap operas and idol groups does not make a culture diverse.

In terms of ethnicity Japan is also as homogenous as it gets. Yes, there were various waves of migration in its early history, but you really have to draw the line when the Kofun period roles in. Today's Korean and Chinese minorities arrived much later and live in their own bubble, partially by choice, partially due to discrimination. However, as others already demonstrated they are statistically as significant as the Ainu in comparison to the overall population.

I left the US late 2017, In the 3 years I've been gone Hemet hasn't changed at all since then. Even California as a whole hasn't change besides more homeless throughout LA. But yeah you certainly did prove something, you most likely don't even live in California yourself and truly do have no clue how it is there. Entire towns don't change much in 3 years let alone an entire state, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt considering you're most likely a sheltered little twat who hasn't even left his own town let alone lived internationally.



If you don't care about your people's achievements, its because your people achieved nothing, and you wish to take other peoples inheritance.
nice strawman

no i don't care about ancestors achievements when talking to the individual because they are there own person they are not there ancestors so why would I treat them like some one they are not?

what some ones ancestors did should have no baring on the treatment the invidual receive.

do i take pride in my parents achievements sure, but i do not flout them as my own nor do i wish to be rewarded for there hard work. i will make my own path. it would be an insult to there memory to take credit for there work.


i don't believe in the sins of the father nor the achievement of the father.

imagine honoring or damning some one for something they didn't do and had no way of controlling. it makes no sense to punish or reward some one for what there far off ancestors did. they are not that person they are there own person with there own beliefs and achievements why not honor them for what they did themselves? what value is there in treating a person badly or better because there ancestor was a saint or villain?

one should not have to atone for something they themselves did not do. Nor should they be rewarded for it.

only the lazy and weak willed seek to be praised for that which they did not do.

and only the foolish and ignorant seek to blame others for crimes the person they are accusing did not commit.

i spit on your degrading of individualism.

And YES this is a wake up call to the right wing.

The jim crow laws consisted of other things aside from buses and fountains. Levittowns made it so they were stuck in poor neighborhoods in the city and the separation of schools made it so they weren't allowed to get a good education, both of which furthered their poverty.


They weren't just stuck in the poor parts of the cities, those areas of the cities were majority black, it was their neighbourhoods. So blacks couldn't get a good education if they went to school with black people. You are being very racist, as you are saying blacks can't prosper without living around whites and they can't get a good education unless they go to school with whites.

The issue is schools require funding. If a school was in a primarily black area they had much less access to supplies, less qualified teachers wanted to work in those areas due to low pay, which carried all the way into higher education.
It's not saying that black people being around black people is the cause of making them unsuccessful, it's that the government would actively hinder their chances of succeeding by ruining the environment around them.

Edit: Also there's possibly a specific reason Levitowns may have been brought up which is a reference to redlining from the new deal in the 1930s. For White neighborhoods and families this meant it was incredibly easy for them to get home loans from the government. So easy in fact that between 1934 and 1968 98% of home loans went to white families. This allowed them to purchase homes and accrue wealth and also attract businesses due to the influx of wealth. Eventually resulting in things like upper middle class suburbs you can see today in the US.

[You are saying Cneq isn't American, when his family has probably been in America for over a century, yet your family immigrated to America from the Third World probably decades ago.

This could be the dumbest thing so far in the thread...

#1 In his own profile...it says he's from Australia, do you need a fucking map?

#2 What does family have to do with the individual?

Last time I checked the ideals and viewpoints you have are your own, and has nothing to do with family.

And SORRY...but in America, we do NOT have "Ethnic Americans"....it doesn't matter if I'm a first generation American or a 10th generation American....we're the same by law.
I'm pretty surprised you haven't noticed yet [especially because how much I post it on the forums] but I'm in fact purely American, Australia is simply where I reside [because why would I put the US when my location is obviously not the US lmao] but I'll explain that in a bit.

So then,

One side of my family migrated from czechoslovakia [my grandma on my dads side is 100% czech]

and for my moms side not too sure [although my grandpa looks pretty damn jewish lmao, or german or some type of euro background]

And almost all of my family has fought and died for the US, great great grandpas on both sides of the family fought in WW1, both great grandpas fought in WW2 and my uncle fought in vietnam [and later on intelligence type stuff].

So yeah in terms of how "American" I am at least one side of my family was with America since the very foundation and my other side came in the early 1900's from czech and I mean shit even my dad was in California before anything was even there.

And I was obviously born in the US, grew up in the US and spent 18 years of my life in the US and only the past 3 years have been in Australia.

Also while there is no real "Ethnicity" of Americans there are varying degrees of those who have been here from the beginning [and shaped the country and it's culture, because yes, America is extremely rich with culture and you would realize that if you left the US, it's very unique compared to the rest of the world],

And then you have those who came very recently, like post 1960s.

All Americans migrated from somewhere, be it the Italians, French, Koreans, Japanese you name it but make no doubt about it these people and the struggles they went through when the US was starting out made the US into the superpower it is today, which is why we should all respect the efforts of those who died for the US and those who built it.

Australia wise,

of course I'm technically "Australian" by law, since I'm a dual citizen but that's about it. Technically only been here for 3 years [5 if you count the time I first came over here back in 2009].

You literally just quoted what I said, so why are you replying to me like it's somehow related to the individual?

I said it's important to respect the efforts of those who came before, especially as someone newly migrating into a country [or if your parents recently migrated before you were born] you should realize how much effort, blood and death made it possible that you were even born in this place called "American" in the first place, because without the efforts of those who came before all these people who have fled from 3rd world countries may of lived completely different lives if their parents didn't migrate.

For example as a migrant to Australia myself despite being "legally" Australian, would I go as far as to say I'm on the same level as those who's families literally shaped and founded this country? Not in a million years, that's completely absurd.

So it has nothing to do with the individual, it's simply respecting the history of the US and the efforts that made it to what is is today.

They're not racist though. You get one guy every few years who is bad enough for the extremely observant left-wing media to catch wind of. And those incidents are enough for BLM to advocate getting rid of the police force? And I don't wanna see anyone pretend this isn't BLM's official position because its right here on their front page...
I don't think it's as rare as you think it is. Racist people aren't just the ones doing the killings.
defunding the police isn't synonymous with getting rid of them(and from what you linked that doesn't seem to be what BLM wants). As for the reasoning, If violent crime is at a low currently, then why do we need to give the police that much money? We could afford to defund them a bit and put the money towards things we need more right now.

90-95% of black people who were killed by police were actively attacking them. That leaves, in the most generous numbers, 24 black people were killed by police who should not have been.

I wouldn't be so trusting since despite what the author of the study said, they did make an affirmative statement about racial bias based on the data(something I missed on my first read-through): "The data show that it’s not racial bias on behalf of white officers relative to black officers when it comes to fatal shootings, and that’s good news"
^and to think I was iffy about saying that "it might possibly imply something"

The author made a pretty good case as to why their data doesn't confirm anything about bias, which makes me believe that they(the article writer) may have not carefully read the study they linked. I also couldn't find that 90-95% statistic on that particular point at all. So either they/I misread the article or they didn't link the second source they got that data from.

This means the number of black people intentionally killed by cops every year is extraordinarily small.

Again. it's not just about the deaths, but police brutality in general. Which includes other non-fatal types of aggression. Such as non-fatal shootings, being beaten, chocked, among other things.

But this extraordinarily small number justifies defunding the police force? It justifies destroying people's businesses and livelihoods? It justifies people going out and murdering police officers? It justifies mobs of people going out and beating people up because they are white? It justifies allowing anarchy and lawlessness to rule the streets?

I'm guessing this relates to BLM. If so, I can't really comment, as I don't know the protestors or the context of what they have done that well. I only commented on the defund police point because you just made the simple claim they believed in it and you linked an official article from them(so I knew enough to comment). My one and only source of knowledge on that movement was an opinion piece video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDwCLoo_5GA

Edit: Not that this is relevant, but I am also going to fix that 40% claim I made last time: "It also already said early on that 40% of officer's shots miss. " I got it backward. The majority of the time the police miss, 20-40% of the time they hit the one they targetted.

@GamerDLM
You weren't far off with the point I was going to make. I was going to say more specifically: Levittowns were a big deal back then and Levittowns were an example of richer, suburban housing units black people weren't allowed in. As in, black people couldn't get to the richer, better opportunistic neighborhoods via blatant discrimination().

respecting history is fine, but we should not treat the persons of today based on the actions of there ancestors or parents.

nor should it be used to determine who gets better treatment.

it disgusts me to think that it was once common to murder a new born baby merely because there parents were criminals or roughless dictators.

or treat one as royalty because there parent was the king or a saint..

if your ancestor had great and stunning achievements great i am happy for them, but that has no baring on how i should view you.

regardless of lineage one should be treated on what they do with there life not what there ancestors or parents did.

Who are you talking to mate? I literally just told you the individual has nothing to do with respecting the land you inhabit.

It's common decency, for example you visit someones house, would you treat them any differently as individuals? Not really. But would you jump on their sofa, kick your feet up on the counter and demand them to go get you a drink? Of course not lmao

That is because you're aware that you're a guest and therefore should have a bit of respect for the place you're currently in/residing.

Goes for both visiting countries and living in countries, respect the culture, respect the people and most of all respect the efforts of those who made it all possible.

house =/= country

and if your both born in it doesn't matter if some one has a longer family line of being born there your still both citizens of that country. that doesn't make the person with the longer family line of being born in america a better person.

would you roll over and lick a persons feet because they tell you too and give you the reason was because there ancestors lived there longer? Obviously not unless you had no self respect.

that doesn't make you a worse person then them though does it?

to inverse that does that mean you believe your worse then a modern Australian criminal who commits murder whose family line can be traced back to the founding?

Dude are you actually blind? THE INDIVIDUAL HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH IT, NOR DOES BEING A PART OF A LONGER LINEAGE = SUPERIOR.

Read my dude, take a breath and read lmao

You should RESPECT the country you inhabit to a healthy degree and RESPECT the culture you have migrated into and attempt to assimilate into it. You should also RESPECT the efforts of those who made the country the place it is today.

This is literally what's required and asked of you when you get a green card to the US and even in Australia you are required to take a full history class to become a citizen, the very idea of "migration" is that you are coming as a guest to a country for a better life and only by staying there for a number of years and become one with their culture are you truly able to become a part of it, and that takes respect for the people who you are coming into their home, ALL of their homes and the respect for the history of their country.

Literally on the application when you choose to migrate, that is what asked of those migrating to the US or Australia.

So when it comes to people born in the US? Like I've said your family lineage means jack shit, ALL Americans need to respect their country and those who make it possible. PERIOD.

so then you would agree that protesting (not talking about rioting or looting.) against the death of a fellow citizen at the hands of a government agent i.e police brutality which goes back to what the founding of the country is against is not disrespecting ones country as far as the U.S goes.

You're missing something, the very ideals of the right to protest and free-speech is what the US was founded on, so in reality peaceful protests are in-fact directly respecting what the country was founded on, so of course I agree.

However these were never peaceful protests, I was watching live since day 1 [and since I'm in Australia I was able to watch from 8pm in the US all the way until 5am] and that is when these "protests" turned into complete riots.

So not even at day 1 were these "protests" anywhere near peaceful and the very reason the rioting began was because these "protesters" broke from the main group once nightfall hit and the days after more and more people came out of the woodwork to get some free-shit.

So then, people say this "well there were still peaceful protests happening!" and that in itself was the problem and the exact cause for the riots. As more and more support came for these "protests" more and more people came out of the woodwork to use it as a guise to cause chaos and looting, so then what was the solution for that?

Simply call them off and re-schedule once shit calms down, literally that simple. It would of stopped all the looting, saved millions of dollars from being lost and saved the lives of multiple POC and various others who were beaten half to death. That was the responsible thing to do, yet what did people do? Double-downed and therefore these "peaceful protests" in-directly caused the riots and therefore they are also to blame.


Oh and let's not forget the pandemic and these "protests" being illegal to even begin with, but I guess that's old news at this point yeah? at least until all these morons get sick.

I would like to point out several things that some of the most well know peaceful protest happened with people still being violent around the protests.

see MLK and Maclom X

MLK didn't stop protesting for equal rights just because Maclom X's group were vandalizing and assaulting people.

similar things happened with gaunhdi. where there were people taking advantage of his peaceful activism to cause violence.

should they have gone.

"Welp some people are being violent pricks guess it's time to give up."

so why should peaceful protest stop just because some pricks are looting and causing trouble?

as for the whole pandemic thing. (as well as the illegal thing.)

many peaceful protests in the u.s woman suffrage, protests against Vietnam war, and again MLK did it despite knowing they might die or be hurt as a result.

such as a black person refusing to give up there seat on a bus despite knowing it was "illegal." and they might die or be beaten for it.

outside the U.S example a Buddhist monk burned himself to death in a peaceful protest against war.

a old sane goes the differences between a foolish and heroic act are results.

my questions for you is do you believe it's moronic to risk death for what you believe in?

So first up, MLK/Malcom X had no where near the savagery as seen with these most recent protests.

Secondly, which this basically shuts down your entire argument, these protests were deemed pointless the moment they refused to condone the violence and most supported [almost all of Antifa are the belief that the violence is the whole point and most BLM as well, it's a "revolution" to them. I still have over 50+ images saved from twitter of BLM supporters leaking the details of cops, their homes and their wives and have images of comments literally calling for their deaths.]

Not only cops but even minors were dox'd and one BLM supporter [with literally thousands in the comments, like 80k retweets] were sharing some high school kids home address, his school and more of his personal details with intent to harm him.

And ALL of them, hundreds of thousands of comments, directly supported it. The mindset of these people is violence spurred on from anger and hatred, there's nothing peaceful about it.

So then, you ask "well that still doesn't tell me why they are pointless" but it does, let me ask you, what is the point of these "protests"? I mean if they still want to go with "peaceful protests" the very point of a protest is to get your message out and why to get your message out? to educate people and gain their support to help with change, yet what have these "protests" done in this instance?

The complete opposite, EVERYONE, not even just in the US, EVERYONE is appalled by the lunacy and depravity of these events. Both people of color are appalled, white people are appalled and even some guy milking his cow in bandoon galeeche is probably appalled. Both blacks have had their shit burned, blacks have been killed all directly caused by "BLACK LIVES MATTER" lmao do you even see the lunacy mate?

So the reason it's pointless is because they've completely run their rep into the fucking ground lol Black lives matter? They couldn't care less! I haven't seen a single fucking BLM/Antifa supporter grieving for David Dorn yet I've been feeling for that man like I lost my own grand father, the fuck is that shit?

So now that people finally realize the only "Black lives" that matter to BLM are the black lives that agree with their agenda, people are even more fucking appalled and even more of a racial divide has been set up. So why did they continue these protests that are constantly causing the adverse effect? Fuck if I know, the majority of these people are uneducated, naive, sheltered fucking morons without a grain of sanity left in their brains lol

So yeah, blacks lives matter and if you agree you'd directly criticise the fucking hypocrites going around causing even more POC to suffer.
