Because this board obviously needs the reminder
Seems a lot of you think racism is anything racially discriminatory. That’s weird because it’s not the definition.
That black lives actually matter. I definitely support that. Who doesn’t?
Huh? There are way too many of us in this country who make decisions solely on physical appearance. To act like you know everyone’s heart or intent is the very definition of ignorant.In this country, skin color alone doesn't limit one's opportunities. Black people can get into a prestigious Ivy league school just as white people can. Black people can become successful doctors just as white people can. Possibilities aren't restricted based on skin color alone. Anyone who argues otherwise is ignorant.
What can be a major obstacle, on the other hand, is the financial and family situation one is born into. A kid born into a single parent household with poor financial circumstances is far less likely to succeed than a kid born into a healthy nuclear family. That's why, regardless of skin color, the nuclear family is so important.
They hate white people for being white because they're taught white people are the source of their problems. In other words, they are taught incorrectly. Black youth are taught that they will be held back rather than that they can achieve their dreams. Not all, but many. They're set up with a ready made excuse to fail.There are black people who harbor quite a bit of resentment. I definitely believe racial relations should improve on whole. Work needs to be done.

Black people have been used before. Glad it’s for something positive this timeThis board is quite aware that Marxists in blackface are using black people as cover. To forward an agenda of old white, dead German guys who were themselves racists in actuality.
Some irony, eh?
Um you should read more of the thread also. This is an interesting leap.That is correct but what they are responding to is an encompassing definition BLM and the left have forwarded in which logic - math, even - or valid criticism of blacks, are “racist”.
In fact, your words rebut them, and you’re complaining to the wrong people.
So you do have a problem with logic! I didn’t want to officially judge earlier but wow. You just gave 3 weird takes that are really not worth much response.No one; nor does anyone need violent Marxists pushing the doctrine of white, racist German guys to tell them that.
You’re either lying about being a BLM supporter, or engaging in a weird cat/mouse using their symbol to provoke response so you can say ‘gotcha’ without getting skin into the game. Which is equally dishonest and a strange way to pass the time.
The bold is your very uneducated and ignorant opinion. Hard to make any progress when one side totally blames the otherThey hate white people for being white because they're taught white people are the source of their problems. In other words, they are taught incorrectly. Black youth are taught that they will be held back rather than that they can achieve their dreams. Not all, but many. They're set up with a ready made excuse to fail.
And it goes beyond "resentment". Everybody has to be willing to change if you really want to combat racism.
