Thoughts On Areas That Welcome Diversity (Minneapolis: taxes, live in, law)

You have your biases, as do we all, but you seem to be blind to them. I guess that’s on you.

Ah, gone to the cheap non-responses. You had a good stretch going...too bad it's over.

Back to your fraudulence.

Further proof that to you, someone or something achieves legitimacy by confirming what you believe, so we can conclude that your views on news organizations follows this pattern, and is, therefore, useless.

Thank you for making my work here so easy.

LOL. Not even close. The neighborhoods with the BLACK LIVES matter signs are mostly white. Black people don't even have black lives matter signs. I remember my wife was looking for a hair salon driving through South Minneapolis. We saw a shop with a BLM sign. First thing that came to mind was, it's a white shop. I WAS RIGHT.

I don't play that game with evolution deniers, and I certainly don't play it with people who like to pretend that systemic racism and white privilege don't exist.

Good luck finding others willing to waste their time playing your games. I know they're out there, as surely as you and I know that exactly what I've described exists in abundance.

Funny, it seems like this would be so easy to explain. Your reaction is precisely what I expected.

Why is that, I wonder?

Why would anyone accept such a fantastic claim without evidence?

I notice you didn’t respond to my comments about you but instead chose this issue which has nothing to do with you. Why is that, I wonder? Perhaps even you see the validity of my criticism and find yourself once again without a meaningful response.

Why does the idea of white people having racial equality signs bother you so much?

Just a reminder: Denial is the most pleasant form of racism.

There comes a point where it's pointless to continue, doesn't there? You can run on fumes as long as you like, champ.

Poor baby! And here I thought you wanted to be pals. Oh, well.

It doesn't bother me at all. It was the fact that the poster thought the area was diverse due to seeing black lives matter signs. But that's not true. White neighborhoods here have BLM SIGNS as well.
