Oh boo hoo... people are picking on whitey because there is no preferential treatment.

How does it feel to have your resume overlooked because of your name? Wait....





This conversation is not about a global scale. It is about America.



Enlighten us to these "no-go" areas for whites.



Deflection is strong here...



Here's the thing:

Did you not read history? I was born in America. I've been here for at least seven generations. Black people in America were brought here against their will. I can't just "go back to Africa" to be with "my people (wtf does that mean anyway?)."

You do not have the moral right to tell me to get the hell out of America because a handful of ignorant white people don't like black people. "It makes me sick."

It's beautiful how RACIST your replies are. Your last sentence summed it up perfectly.

A HANDFULL of white people who don't like black people stirs you up so?? How are white people to feel about the HANDFULLS of black people who hate them?
It should make you sick.

Sure sounded like you wanted special treatment. About half your list (points 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, & 9) would require special treatment. Point #5 would require a mandatory sentencing guideline, which is also deemed as unfair to blacks.

And this is our fault... how? Blacks have been given generous opportunities since the Civil Rights era. If black neighborhoods are not nice places to be, instead of blaming us, why not work to improve them?

Not a lack of preferential treatment. How about active discrimination? Is affirmative action not discriminatory against white people?

And keep up that attitude! You are alienating white people and waking them up to what's happening in our world. We are realizing the leftist cause is not one of equal rights, but an anti-white one. It's a cause that recognizes the right to self-determination for every race except whites.

The rest of the world is relevant, too. This isn't just black and white. Every race is being invited to America and is being given preferential treatment in the form of affirmative action and this is happening almost everywhere in Western Europe, North America, Australia, etc. Why's it not happening in Africa? Japan? India? White ethnic replacement is the goal of the globalist elites.

See above. It isn't "defection." We're supposed to be color blind, yet minorities are not. The left would have you believe the whole world was color blind and us evil American whites weren't. But that's so far from the truth. The right of every ethnic group to advocate for their own self-interests is a given elsewhere in the world.

Don't put words in my mouth. I said nothing about going back to Africa. And I've made plenty of references to majority black areas of this country where I clearly showed how blacks in these areas enjoy privileges. You have every right to live where you want to, but you have no right to demand that any race, even the majority, give up their heritage and self-interest because it doesn't benefit you.

A minority group, a small % of the population, with high poverty and crime are always going to be disadvantaged. The fact that the skin color is different highlights this. Blacks will never have the majority and can't be artificially given majority power so we have to live with the color difference and focus on the problems of crime and poverty. The disadvantage comes from the families and the only way out is to stop bring kids into the situation, like all bad situations involving all skin colors. That won't happen so we get to hear about this in perpetuity and it will never totally go away.

"White privilege" isn't even the correct description, black disadvantage is. I keep saying it but the spin is already out of control on this one. Much like "rape culture". Yes...leading into a new election cycle these are the leading contenders of things we will hear about. Oh, and thinking we can stop a virus at the border by somehow controlling the worlds transportation. These things are all "reporters" will write about, all the talking heads will talk about. And it's all BS. This is why I've already decided to not pay any attention to it and just straight up vote against anything that even hints it's trying to address these things unless there is a sound medical breakthrough. I have better things to do.
