12th Man 884 Posted September 22, 2017 I keep hearing from the Colin Kraepernick's and Michael Bennett's of the the world about all this inequality that exists between whites and blacks/browns. However, the term inequality is vague gibberish. Let's get down to brass tax! Where does all this supposed inequality exist? Give some hardcore specifics. Go....

KSB2424 3,082 Posted September 22, 2017 It's hard to walk in another persons shoes so I try to give anyone the benefit of the doubt. Couple that with the fact there are true outright Racists out there and one can see where an African American person faces sterotypes and racism on occasion in their life. With that said, I also believe there is a large issue of confirmation bias as it pertains to race issues going on as well. It seems people automatically assume race plays a part in any event when that is not the case more often than not. i.e. just because a white officer arrests a black person doesn't mean race is the issue, or if you see a black man and a white man arguing maybe they are just..... simply arguing. A large portion of people immediately go to the race and the race card. It's a problem because the "Boy who Cried Wolf" syndrome kicks in for the rest of us. As far as "inequality".....in 2017 I agree that it's pretty much over. There is no more "institutional racism". Racism out there is from individuals and its the overwhelming minority of people. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kilroy69 993 Posted September 22, 2017 I believe that 90% Of Black Americans are racists! According to the black community they can not be racist because they do not have power. Sooooo when they call you a honkey or cracker. They are not being racist....because they don't have the power. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DankNuggs 305 Posted September 22, 2017 There are two choices, Everyone can be poor (socialist/communists) but the government elites We can have a spectrum of rich and poor where there is opportunity to fall anywhere on the spectrum (capitalism) There is no option for everyone to be middle class.

Filthy Fernadez 2,696 Posted September 22, 2017 Obama beat Hillary............where was the white privilege? Kaepernick beat Alex Smith for starting job......where was the white privilege? Russell Wilson beat Matt Flynn.........where was the white privilege? Of course you'll hear 'they were better candidates for the job' so affirmative action is just to fix when the minority isn't the better candidate? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hardcore troubadour 12,596 Posted September 22, 2017 Black voter turnout was down 750k in 2016 from 2012. But no one will say a word about that. Hispanic voting was flat. Must have been all those Klansman and Nazis voting. Cry about your alleged negative condition and can't even get off your ass to vote. Is that inequality too?

No middle ground possible? I think you've identified the poles correctly but there's a lot in between. Hell we live in between right now. Yes we're definitely capitalist but we have a social safety net in place - why can't that net be more robust without turning into a totalitarian communist regime?
