Here's some food for thought for those who strictly think in terms of "skin color" alone when talking about white privilege, racism, segregation, etc.

Probably not, because white Millennials and Gen-Zers are working from an entirely different viewpoint of the status quo from that of War Genners, Boomers, or Gen-Xers.


Millennials and Gen-Zers--children of recession and lockdown--are starting from the nihilistic viewpoint that maintaining the status quo is futile and should be brought down anyway.

Yes this is true. We blacks are racists and have been since the beginning of time. That is why you make excuses for your people starting the importation of blacks to a country where we will never fit. In fact, we'll never fit with any country since every single one is now taken over by whites and Asians. So there. You are on top of the heap, cream of the crop. You can't pretend having no privilege since you are free, intellectual superior, and "less racist." And it has nothing to do with "white liberals." Black folks are actually republicans by nature.

Let's be really really clear about the purpose of colonization - it was about stealing natural resources. All of the places that were colonized had abundant natural resources and fertile soil. That's why Europeans kept coming, they wanted access to what wasn't available in Europe.

Well, if you want to be historically correct, after slavery was abolished at cost of lives,Africans were offered free pass to Africa. As in - everything paid. Just get on a ship and go. Go back to your roots (that you claim are so strong in you now and here) and establish free society equal to all.
Thing is, not really many takers was then. And those who did move to Liberia, established exactly same thing they fought against or that discriminated them - totalitarian society with local Africans as slaves.

Things is, I don't claim any country and no country wants blacks. Not America, not Africa, not anywhere. Since the fact that blacks exist and "can't do as everyone else" has been so upsetting to all the other races, the only way everyone will finally be happy is eliminating us altogether, to be replaced with the perfectly anatomically correct and supreme artificial intelligence obeying your every order that you all love so much. Then, at long last, you will be satisfied.

So are you saying they are ignorant and will believe anything someone says? I know you don't mean it that way, just pointing something out. They are adults that are able to make decisions between right and wrong. Place blame where it is deserved.

Also, just because a few may be racist doesn't mean you judge the group by the actions of a few.

The “right and wrong” is not the same across cultures. That’s something blacks and whites will always be divided by. Whites just don’t want to accept it because you need a reason to have other people who are not like yourselves around to do what you don’t want or have time to do. Every other race lives with its own people and does not import droves of other people to babysit, pick fruit and cotton, lay roofs, and mop floors. Africans don’t go get whites to sleep in the bush. Asians don’t go get whites to step around in the rice fields.

The difference between right and wrong is the same across all cultures, choices are different.
