When you inhabit the peak of social privilege, and habitually debase those you consider different, equality sure looks a lot like oppression.
Yeah, and by white people he means his dad. Because you know, his dad was such a racist piece of shit that wouldn’t rent to people of color and Woodie Guthry wrote a song about him. Becouse he was such a piece of shit.
When you’re used to privilege, equality looks like oppression
It’s not even equality, it’s just a little less privilege.
Yeah you shouldn’t have privileges anyway. No one is entitled to be above others. And leadership isn’t being above others.
Ugh. This reminds me of a relative asking me ‘aren’t you afraid of how you’ll be treated if minorities become the majority?’
I think my mouth literally fell open. Not religious ideologies that hate women, mind you. They meant racial minorities in a predominantly white area.
People who ask questions like that know in every cell of their body that the system that they thrive in treats others horribly and justify it by believing that anyone in power would do the same.
So no, I’m not afraid of a race or nationality of people. I’m afraid of people with inhumane ideologies.
aren’t you afraid of how you’ll be treated if minorities become the majority?
Many (mostly white) people are convinced that others will seek “racial” vengeance.
It’s all throughout the myths regarding what they thought would happen if we freed the slaves, to what they thought would happen if we allowed black people equal footing under the law, to what they thought would happen if a black man was elected to the presidency.
It’s really one thing the entire time: the false insistence that “race” is some kind of determining factor in a person’s soul or essence, and the loathsome postulate that at some point there will be a “race” war in which their “race” will reign supreme.
It’s in the Nazi myths; it’s in the KKK myths; it’s in the Turner diaries; it’s in the neo-Nazi myths; it’s in the Manson family myths; it’s in the Ruby Ridge myths; it’s in the Waco myths; it’s in the Timothy McVey myths; it’s in the myths of the racially motivated mass shootings in South Carolina and New York; it’s in the MAGA myths.
To say the idea is pervasive is almost an understatement.
These people continually try to incite a “race” war through their actions and insist that if another “race” was in charge they would do the same thing.
Really, they’re just massive pieces of shit racists and they haven’t realized that most people aren’t such losers that they consider their “race” to be worth killing or dying over.
Jesus fckn christ, that’s horrible, is education illegal in america or what
People who ask these questions generally are the type of people who treat others badly because they believe they are better than them… so they expect to be treated how they treat people
vocabulary equal to his murdered rape baby
How.
What weren’t they allowed to do any more
Own people. Simple as.
I don’t care that food is unaffordable. I don’t care if my kid has to go into crippling debt for an education. I don’t even care that I can’t afford to fight my wife’s cancer, so she just died. I will not share my water fountain.
Killing minorities has a chance of punishment now.
Can’t you see both sides?
I mean, all they had to do ( and did) was join the cops, they are allowed to kill minorities without punishment
At this point in time, I think I’d pay to see Trump’s throat slit on live tv
For cryin Out loud. Can that pig Just shut Up for a minute. Worse than any Idiot at a bar thats one Beer too deep
No. He won’t shut up. It’ll only get more and worse, untill yall mass strike, and bring the american economy to a pause, so you can force him out.
“I’ll take: things you won’t hear on Fox news for $500”
The fact that Germany who committed one of the biggest atrocities in history was like “fuck we fucked up bad please accept our apology” years after the war.
While America contributed to slavery yet can’t be like “we’re sorry we hope we can unite everyone” instead are like “why are you making whites look bad”
Is hilarious and astounding
So the takeaway here is we need to invade the US , batter them into submission before they’ll become reflective and apologetic ? Similarly Russia, and Israel i guess
After the civil war Lincoln was trying to unite the country again and gave Confederate leaders a pass and allowed them back to Congress. They should have all been jailed and or executed.
Forgiving insurrectionists is a US tradition.
We’ve got to change that.
We made baby steps by prosecuting the Jan 6th insurrectionists, but thr system allowed Trump (Republicans) to pardon every single one of them as soon as he was back in office.
This is why you don’t forgive Insurrectionists, you HANG them. The next time some putz says come and fight for me, they’ll remember what happened to the last bunch of morons.
“But the fascists might use fake insurrectionist charges to hang people!” say the moderates who ignore ICE openly murdering people.
Yeah, those that try to overthrow a free and fair election should hang.
free and fair
I wouldn’t call our elections free, as corporations/billionaires/the parties essentially get to veto anyone they don’t approve of, and the presidential election certainly isn’t fair, Trump and Bush got elected despite not having the plurality, and in Bush’s case, not even the most electoral votes.
But the constitution gives congress near total discretion as to a traitor’s punishment. Brazil’s Lula demonstrated how you use that tool to consolidate power to enact the will of your constituents.
Way too much surrendering in advance. They’re always threatening about something or another, you can’t just automatically give in because they MIGHT fight back. Call their bluffs, every time. Make them work for it. Make them earn it.
[Monkey’s paw curls a finger]
Lincoln was pro-reunification, but he died before reconstruction could really begin. It was Andrew Johnson who fucked everything up.
Like being shot by their government for fun?
If you need an apartheid system that gives your group better rights and opportunities then the rest of the people, and if that is intrinsic to your self worth (and your ability to make a living) then you are a failure. Some people are ok with that even though it means they are a loser who need special privileges to succeed in life. Being on the same level as everyone else = very badly treated.
He holds a grudge because as civil rights were popularised his father was outted as a slum lord who would single out poor black families for worse treatment by putting a ‘c’ next to their names on their applications and tenancy agreements to indicate they were “colored people” and worthy of less consideration.
Racism and injustice is the Trump family’s legacy project.
Donald J. Pedophile said what?
Hitler, reading Trump headlines from his luxury penthouse in hell
I assume Trump’s photo would have been hung next to Ford’s in Hitlers office should they have lived during the same time.
