It's almost like you won't venture any further analysis because you know your actual beliefs re: black families are obviously racist. Weird.

Pelosi's district is 6.3% black.

You picked Pelosi because you're a grab bag of tired right-wing talking points.

I’m willing to change my mind if confronted with enough evidence to the contrary of my belief, like most reasonable people, but I haven’t read anything persuasive as of yet. 

Pelosi is the minorty leader of the United States House of Representatives, stop being naive.

People are tribalistic and will never stop being so. The goal is not to fix the human condition, which is literally impossible, it is to mitigate the most damaging aspects of our social flaws.

Your belief as to what is the cause behind the dissolution of the black family is not even stated, much less backed by evidence.

Your argument is literally, "I don't know, but it's not racism!"

And that title gives her influence and sway within the black community?

Let’s do reparations. And then move the fuck on.  I’m dead serious. Would a twenty percent wealth tax on all whites be enough?

If not, give me a number.

About three fiddy but you still wouldn’t shut the fuck up. Neither would they.

I don’t believe 75% of black children were born out of wedlock in 2017 due to racism, no. I think that’s silly. 

Considering that she was voted in as minorty leader by members with larger minority constituencies, yes I believe she has influence.

Racism has definitely played a role in creating the society in which 75% of black children were born out of wedlock.

I’ve admitted as much. Do I think it’s the primary factor? No.

I embrace and acknowledge our history.

 

I refuse to accept responsibility( and your dumptruck load of guilt) for it.

 

Every man has basic fundamental choices to make in life, and when they continuously choose the wrong things, it's not on me to get em through it.

 

That doesn't mean I am not generous, compassionate, and charitable.  Those things happen without the bullshit guilt trip though. I understand someone being down in life.  I've absolutely lived it.  Eventually, every man must take responsibility for what's happening though. If you want your situation to change, start making better choices in life.  Stop blaming the other guy.

The growing socialist party would want a hell of lot more than that.

If you're eager to sign up because you think it will end the discussion of race in America, you will be disappointed.

until there is a huge increase in personal responsibility we will have a discussion of race in America.

I vote and do everything in my power not to exacerbate the problem by being racist.

You vote. Well, OK.

You do everything in your power to NOT be racist (your answer doesn't read well but I get what you mean).

In your opinion, what is "being racist?"   Overt acts?  Subtle acts?  Just being white? Any act contrary to the perceived general wishes of another race?

Serious.  Not trap questions.  Just trying to understand you.

I agree with Ibram Kendi on this: being racist is regarding one racial group as being inferior or superior to another racial group in any way.

I have no problem with that. I don't believe any one race is better or worse than another.  Stamped from the Beginning seems to be an inetetsing book.  

Just reading and agreeing with a book's premise does not make non-racist.  We all have some in us to a degree. All of us.

One of the biggest problems in this country is the failure of white people to come to terms with our nation's history. It makes them very uncomfortable. This thread is a perfect example of that.

Our history is not my opinion.

Nothing in our nation's history contributed to you being a retard, you own that by yourself.

That's precisely why we need to work on it and not "move the fuck on" which, apparently, some people would like to do

Nobody is perfect. Well, one guy was and we hung Him on a cross. 

I think some people do work on it. Some don't.  But that's up to them.  Claiming that "white men in power" is on its face "racist"  is sweeping generalization that's a little hubristic.

You're being purposefully obtuse, but here we go anyway...

If Person A and Person B both want to buy the same house, but Person B saw it first and applied for the same loan at the same bank with the same financial situation and is denied, but then Person A is granted the loan and purchases the home. Did Person A benefit from the denial of Person B?

Simple question. Please answer.

Apply online dumbass. Or is Skynet racist as well.

maybe rocket mortgage is racist. You seem to want to reset race relations back 50 years so you can feel good about your white guilt and how progressive you are. 

 

It is sad you think an entire grouP of people are not capable to help themselves because of their skin color b

What you don't recognize is that an entire group of people, capable or not, have been advantaged because of their skin color.

I'm white. I know where I stand. I know that the number of white men in power is disproportionate to the number of white men in the general population. The numbers tend to skew in our favor in a big way. I'm trying to change that with every vote. 

You allude to just that in this post.

What's the murder rate like at country music concerts?! The answer: Worse than rap concerts. 

Lol at violent psycho upper class whites from two parent households. 

White people are violent for myriad reasons that are worth exploring in depth. White people violence is not supposed to be lumped together.

Black people violence, however...

White violence is a mental health issue for which the individual is accountable.

Black violence is a cultural issue for which the group is accountable. 

Murica.

You don't think that it's due to white privilege.

Why do you think black males kill a lot more than others?

They have to be whiny and sarcastic because they know they'll be yelled at if they say what they really believe.

Stalin & Hitler were white. 

White Americans committed genocide against the native Americans and white Americans & Europeans enslaved virtually all of Africa.

But crips vs bloods on the bad side of the railroad tracks = an immutable racial indictment.

Most of the enslavers in Africa were black. Blacks sold fellow blacks into slavery to South American and North American buyers.

White people are also praying for if not outright planning a biblical Armageddon which will annihilate billions of innocent people, so that Presbyterian 1%ers can re-congregate in space heaven.

But omg that Ludicrous album!

Sounds like blacks are doing great and we could all learn from their nonviolence
