another race thread: white privledge

[Rootin4EverybodyBlack]

Nothing worst than racists who just won't come out and admit that they're racists. Nothing but a bunch of cowards really. They want to spit out their racist views without suffering the consequences of being a full blown, all out racist.

Exactly. @oneilmatt spitting that socialist, worst president crap than when asked to expound on it he goes ghost. Racist and misinformed. Yikes. :x

Did you read my post? No president has ever overstepped his authority even near the level he has. Obamacare is socialism. Do your own research before trying to lol me away.

You keep throwing out these random terms you clearly got from Fox news with NO EXPLANATION. Explain, we're all waiting.



He's like a socialist and stuff, and he like oversteps his authority. Explain. I'm calling you out, you have the podium, say something of substance with proof.

Substance and proof? Actual reasons? Not gonna happen. "he's, he's,... He's a Muslim!" not a fan of these halfway in racists.

Not at all defending closet racists, but are you sure you're dealing with one? Or are you judging someone based on your beliefs of certain ideas, a hallmark of the same of people that you condemn?

To me, what's worse are those who are quick to reject views that do not conform to their own (likely narrow minded and uneducated) opinions and additionally tag them with names such as racist and coward to redirect attention and gain support (sadly this usually works like a charm).

By all means keep doing what you're doing if it serves you well, but allow me to suggest considering various perspectives as a means to try to understand others beliefs rather than jumping the gun with the labels and deflecting the focus from meaningful discussion (not to mention resorting to malicious name calling).

He would not allow this sort of discernment to take place.

I don't know how long you've been on here but certain individuals have a very long history of making racially charged comments and then saying "but I'm not a racist". To me that's being a coward.

I'm on my phone so I don't really have time to type up a whole essay, but to sugges my views are somehow narrow minded and uneducated sounds like you're jumping the gun, not me.

 

[Mark Antony]

Sometimes it's great to be a neutral voice of reason, but it's annoying when it's clear you're not even really engaged, you just wanted to be heard.

Not sure if aleady posted, but check out www.whitenessproject.org . It is a series of videos conducted by pbs, worth the watch.

You sound like you're regurgitating what someone told you about Obama, nothing you said about him even remotely makes sense or is based on facts.




He's a socialist......rly?

Did you read my post? No president has ever overstepped his authority even near the level he has. Obamacare is socialism. Do your own research before trying to lol me away.

aye bruh,define socialism real quick b, then tell me how does that coincide with a affordable/available healthcare that's country wide.

edit: and yes i understand healthcare is mandatory

 

[johnnyredstorm]

I feel like Bush probably overstepped his authority more than Barry has. I mean, let's be serial, Bush disrespected the Consitution with the Patriot Act, he allowed the housing bubble to burst, he put us in a war with Iraq to make his daddy and Cheney happy. I'm not an Obama fan by any means, and I do think he does abuse his power, but he's not the first or worst to do it.

 

[rillo561]

They don't have to define it, that's just the rhetoric they hear and repeat it. Same with him being a 'Marxist', and being a 'King'. Nothing has changed under Obama, maybe little social things but it's business as usual. Bush\, Obama, and most likely Hilary will carry the torch. GOP has no answers, no candidates maybe Rand Paul? But that's a stretch.

[Coromanti]

I don't like the term "White Privilege", I would say it's more like "Class Privilege".

Absolutely not.

A poor white guy will get the benefit of the doubt anywhere, a rich black guy will only get the benefit of the doubt in his community and among those who know him.

Obamacare was approved by the House and Senate, signed by the President, and upheld by the Supreme Court. We then had an election where the opposing candidate's platform was that he would repel Obamacare. America chose overwhelming to give Obama 4 more years and as a result keep Obamacare.

Stop acting like it was forced down your throat just because you disagree with it. Just because you hear that on Fox News doesn't make it true

BTW stop using "socialism" like it is some sort of negative thing. There are tons of "socialist" programs in America, many you probably take advantage of, and almost all the countries with the highest quality of living are "socialist".

-Obama has been far from a perfect president, a straight up disappointment in many areas, but the GOP has made it their mission to make sure nothing gets done from the day he got elected, and are now trying to blame Barry for the lack of progress. Dude had two years to cook, and even then he had to compromise with the right.

Now we gotta a group (the Tea Party) holding the country hostage, the same group that has no problem having protest on the mall calling Obama the n-word, secret Muslims and waving around monkey signs. And somehow, those people are called the "true Americans" by Fox and others.

There is even white privilege in criticizing the president.

Found a perfect example right here...

And he won't be the last president to do so either, yet he gets so much flack for doing so.... which attributes to the argument of this thread yet again.

Dudes in here deflecting aren't doing anything really but strengthening the argument that there is white privilege

Please define socialism for me... i guarantee you have no idea what it really means.

By the way how many executive orders has Obama signed compared to Bush jr and your savior Ronald Reagan? Don't worry I have the correct answer here for you when you pull some random number out of your ***.

^^^ That Scholar Scrappy Pic always gets me

 

[Mark Antony]

That dude is gone. If he does come back he's just gonna ignore your questions and facts and repeat Fox fake news buzz terms. No substance, ever. It's almost like people in that vein don't realize that whatever deep seeded reason that keeps them regurgitating this stuff makes them appear as if there's some learning disability. Like dudes would rather look like they were shell-shocked than objectively look at the President.


And "Barry". Yikes. I've never seen a President addressed outside his name as much as our current.

Yeah every time I read Barry, I was like do you personally know him or something?
