#241935 — OT: Ignorance about racism

FromSnit <usenet@gallopinginsanity.com>

SubjectOT: Ignorance about racism
Message-ID<CF8C4CA7.367D6%usenet@gallopinginsanity.com>

    Study Finds White Americans Believe They Experience More Racism
    Than African Americans

    There's a saying that "the new racism is to deny that racism
    exists." If that is the case, it may explain a study conducted by
    researchers from Tufts University's School of Arts and Sciences
    and Harvard Business School. Their findings claim that
    self-described white Americans believe they have "replaced blacks"
    as the primary victims of racial discrimination in contemporary
    America.
    ...
    An astounding 11% of Caucasian respondents assigned the maximum
    rating of 10 to the seriousness of anti-white discrimination.
    Compare that with only 2% who reported the same of anti-black
    racism. Caucasians, the study found, often believe that racial
    equality is "a zero sum game," where one group gains at the
    expense of others.
    -----

Makes me think of the fools in COLA who think they know what it is like to
have their rights denied to them because, oh no!, some people find it hard
to pronounce their names! Or those who just want to sweep the facts of
racism under the rug. I mean, really... just stupidity.

Blacks are the most racist of all races.

Even if true, in the U.S. they clearly do not have the power to do much
about it. And, of course, it is a completely unsupported claim.

You have the power to refer to a black man as a monkey and a nigger and chase him out of CSMA. Stop being a hypocrite and claiming you are not racist. You are.

I wouldn't expect someone stuck to a chair to have any experience with
what's happening in society, so you'll just have to take my word for it.

Your accusation remains baseless. And, of course, you will never even try to
back it. Your claim is biased and racist... but it will serve to show who
jumps in to back you.

There are plenty who lack the balls to admit that they agree, for fear
of being called "racist."  There are even some who might vocally disagree,
just to reiterate that they are politically correct to a fault.  I'm sure
you are one of the latter.

What you say people believe does not in any way back your bigoted claim.
Your claim remains backless... and, face it, since it is emotion-based and
not logic and evidence based it will remain that way.

It is observation-based.  Such observation requires that one actually
venture out into society.  Unfortunately, you are stuck to a chair, and
so your opinion is formed from emotion rather than observation.

No support... just bigoted claims. You get *one* chance: try to back your
bigoted nonsense. Try. After that do not whine when the response you get is
simply a reference to how when you were given a chance to back your bigotry
you failed.

Where have you been the last ten years? Look at the rioting in LA and after Katrina. Look at the OJ trial. The darker the skin the more likely someone is to become a lunatic like you in any crisis.

For some reason you worship the black man, maybe because you are as insane as they are. Obama, Neil DeGrasse Tyson and Powell are the only people I have ever seen you say you would accept as president. You long to reverse the roles and put a black man in charge of white people. 

We have that now with the dark one and look where it has gotten us. Our country will go bankrupt with the handouts that the blacks want. They want cradle to grave pandering with health care, falsely increased wages, retirement funds that we can not afford, food stamps, housing and taking care of their 20 nappy headed babies. 

Enough. We need to take care of our own and not worry about people who did not even want to come to this country. Let them go back to Kenya or wherever they came from. 

Keep the White in the White House.

WTF does that even mean?

I'll bet there's more "support" for his claim than for your allegation that "it is a completely unsupported claim".... gee, here's some now:

http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/lifestyle/general_lifestyle/july_2013/more_americans_view_blacks_as_racist_than_whites_hispanics

Notable stat:
"Among black Americans, 31% think most blacks are racist, while 24% consider most whites racist and 15% view most Hispanics that way."


This is all irrelevant anyway because, as we all know, It wouldn't matter what kind of support was put in front of you, on any topic, especially when you're in denial mode. Crank up your denial dial to 10 now, Snit... you know you want to ;)


(cue up Snit claiming how everyone else in America is "wrong" but he's "right")
