How could anyone argue with you? You're set on denying that racism happens at all in 2015 (you did the same thing in the trans thread saying that no trans people were losing their jobs or being assaulted) and you think everyone is just making it up to get attention or further some agenda.
11/13/2015 1:17:39 PM
I know it exists because, despite my empathy and awareness, I'm still guilty of it.And again, you are conveniently dismissing what the DOJ said about Ferguson by being caught up in the hands up, don't shoot narrative.[Edited on November 13, 2015 at 1:24 PM. Reason : narratives also are the ONLY thing that brings attention to the very real problems]

^^ he denies that muslims faced hate and attacks after 9/11 too. It seems he can only prop up his world view by blatantly denying obvious things.

Seriously. There's no point in arguing with someone who "doesn't believe" in other people's experiences and just thinks they're making them up to receive pity or further some "agenda".

^ What is your point and what is your supposed solution.I believe this has been debated in many other threads that now in 2015 this is more a function of culture and socio-economic reasons rather than a racism and a conspiracy to keep African-Americans from achieving. If anything given two individuals with the same grades, extra-curricular activities, testing scores, etc that being a minority is advantageous with all the affirmative action and other programs designed to assist minorities.

Again, please improve your reading comprehension. "Targeted" implies they were targeted because they were trans, and murdered because they were trans. This is simply not the case. When I call out "activists" for stretching the truth, don't interpret that as me saying "No transsexuals have ever been murdered".The vast majority of transsexuals murdered this year were black prostitutes. Does the liberal media care about dead prostitutes, or black on black crime? No. If some are transgender however (one more step up the progressive stack) they can convince people there is an "epidemic/national crisis" or trans people being "targeted".

Ok, let's just assume that all of this is staged and that black people really ARE just doing this to get attention. Wouldn't that still reveal something really disturbing about race in America? That people would be willing to go to such great lengths to exaggerate racism to force people to notice the 'mild' racism you both seem to be suggesting is what's really going on?I certainly don't think that's the case at all, but since you're both so convinced it's staged 'faux outrage', maybe you could think about it from a different angle.

Real quick for the folks who are confused. Missouri is a strange place. That state was never really called to account for racial injustice and whatnot. So, yeah, I think Missouri's still tough for racial minorities...like very difficult compared to NC.[Edited on November 13, 2015 at 7:03 PM. Reason : Strange place.]

Wish the news would get over "micro aggressions" and worry more about actual aggressions like this shit going on in Paris. Not saying people don't deal with this, but students in First World Countries like France are having to deal with real life and death shit, not people just hurting my feelings.

Not that intolerance is "OK" bit in 2015's world of PC and acceptance, why would you knowingly and willingly go to the university known for its intolerance if the above is true ^^.This in my mind is like the gay couple that goes to the Evangelical Church and gets mad when they pitch a fight about letting them have their marriage ceremony there.
11/13/2015 11:44:44 PM
I'd say there's a legitimate point to be made about free speech and First Amendment rights being victimized at Mizzou right now. When you've got a communications professor attacking members of the press, there is something seriously wrong. I don't see much "over the top" about the posters, as described above. Unless there is something more going on, only one side is looking bad in this, and the people calling for Stalinist purges of university students.
11/13/2015 11:45:57 PM
Hah, the "All Lives Matters" posters were actually anti-abortion posters. Bit of a dick-move. Still, not worthy of re-education camps.

Apparently #fuckfrance & #fuckparis have picked up some steam on twitter among some of the BLM crowdI'm quite confident they can get their point across that France did bad things to black people in their colonial era as well in a way that won't get them labeled as assholes in the processJust assuming that getting called assholes by many who would potentially be in favor of their cause isn't too favorable for their movement going forward[Edited on November 17, 2015 at 9:15 AM.

The one bright side of the Paris shooting is there is less undeserved media attention going to this hoax-protest in Mizzou.In hindsight, it really is fascinating to see how quickly and blindly liberalism jumps onboard the "Oppressed Victim" narrative. This case was of particular interest because typically even false narratives require at least something to happen as a rallying cry for outrage culture. In this case all it took was a minority lying about "oppression" and the liberal media echo-chamber blindly supported it. Even after the facts, lack of actual evidence, and "character" of this "movement" have been revealed, gullible liberals, who finally realized this entire thing was just a hoax, will defend it by saying "oh yea, well racism is still bad". The problem is they can't differentiate between legitimate cases of racism and ones fabricated to perpetuate a false narrative of victimization. But hey, what do I know about oppression? Johnathan Butler, graduate school student, millionaire family. Oppressed because Tim Wolfe, in his arrogant white male privilege, refused to pay lip service to a mob of rude, race-baiting "activists". Oppressed because he walked into a car moving 1mph and then lied about it.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5yGrbKwty44[Edited on November 17, 2015 at 12:29 PM. Reason : .]
