The global diversity executive at Facebook stole 4 million dollars
peenie replied to kilroy69's topic in The Geek Club
Black men and women commit white collar crimes yes, but that isn’t the issue, imo. It is that she is in a role that is supposed to be about getting along with others, exposing our culture to each other and breaking down barriers and stereotypes so we can hire more people of color because we’re equally qualified and bring positive qualities to the workforce. It’s just very sad for me because I work in a field with very few blacks and it’s really hard to get blacks in power or high paying positions. And yes, people are sick and tired of all this diversity training and such. So it’s just proof to those that don’t like it and eat to keep the status quo, that it is unnecessary. And lastly, why is this still only on FOX News? This means the news I’m watching isn’t really trying to inform me. -

It makes it really hard to talk about racism, discrimination or hardships when you have people like this at the forefront. She was given a chance to do really great things: given trust and money and she abused it. It closes doors and cements all the negative stereotypes about working with blacks. She should really be taken to task for this. Her, her family and friends that ripped off Facebook. Yes, plenty of white folks have done the same, but we as blacks are in a fragile position, especially as a black woman! I’m disgusted, honestly. I look at Jews who take their money and build neighborhoods and schools for their community and here this woman is buying trips and cars and crap that capitalism brainwashes you to believe is important. She should be trying to uplift her people, instead she dragged them in the dirt. ETA, I sent a message to the 4 top black news that I follow on Instagram asking why this isn’t a story? They can post about every white police officer that commits a crime against a black driver yet there are crickets about this news. -

My sister called the guy who keeps inviting me over to his house to watch Netflix instead of out on a real date, Low Vibration and my other sister says he gives Small D*ck energy. I just thought I'd use it here. I just stopped answering his calls. I believe he's one of these manosphere/passport guys. Oops! You may not even know what that means.... The manosphere is a heterogeneous group of online communities that includes men's-rights activists (MRAs), incels (involuntary celibates), Men Going Their Own Way (MGTOW), pick-up artists (PUAs), and fathers' rights groups. Simply put, the manosphere encompasses a range of misogynistic communities that vary from anti-feminism to more explicit, violent rhetoric towards women. The “Passport Bros” are men who have chosen to seek out foreign women, typically from other countries, for relationships. The viral movement, coined as "passport bros" on TikTok, refers to men seeking foreign women who they believe come from more conservative backgrounds and, therefore, place more emphasis on family and loyalty. "In many cases, these passport bros claim to seek out non-western women out of frustration or wanting something new. They often blame feminism and impossible standards by U.S. women as the reason for them seeking out relationships overseas,"

What does it mean if someone is low vibration? A low vibration is brought on by a generally negative outlook on life. It can be connected to the people and places you associate yourself with, worrying, overthinking, indulging in unhappy thoughts, or negative self-talk. Low vibration is a spiritual energy frequency associated with negative emotions. High vibration frequencies are associated with happiness and positivity. Signs of low vibrational energy include persistent feelings of sadness or anger, sluggish thinking, constant fatigue, and apathy.

I wonder if he was an alcoholic that was also popping pills?

My daughter was skipped a grade and was an honor student and got full ride scholarships to multiple colleges. She received an award from the President of the United States. She was a child raised in poverty and on welfare. There are more children of color graduating with honors or average grades across this nation than are failing. If you want to raise your self esteem by searching out stories like this one instead of the ones that will fill you with pride, the ones with teachers in inner city schools that are inspiring children, then I think you are a sad , low vibrational being. It would be one thing to find fault with the parent (it is her fault) or with the school (it is their fault) or with the student (it is his fault), but since you want to blame diversity, then you need to look at ALL the factors that led to this child’s circumstances. Do you want me to point them out to you? Let’s begin with the fact that this child’s ancestors were brought here in chains, raised to be nothing more than the cow, chicken or donkey on a farm. His ancestors were not even considered human beings. It was illegal to teach his ancestors how to read or write. His ancestors lived to an average of 21 to 23 years of age. None of his ancestors had the privilege of owning or raising their own children, unless they were lucky. When his ancestors were freed they lived in segregation-still to this day-surrounded by poverty and in the worst neighborhoods this country has to offer. Redlining (look it up) and all sorts of rules or laws have affected the black family - such as black women in the south were not allowed to be housewives, they must be employed (to keep servants in white households) or welfare laws that would not give aid to a black woman with a husband or man in the home. People who come here from other countries come with their heritage in tact. Some of us black Americans have survived and thrived while others have failed and are stuck due to poor choices or undiagnosed mental challenges. Maybe that boy AND his mother are autistic? Yes, that is a sad story but search yourself as to what’s wrong with you if the only conclusion you come to is, it’s the fault of liberals and diversity. Y’all didn’t mind diversity when it was picking cotton, sugar cane, rice or tobacco.

Not the same issue. Black crime does not excuse police crime.

Best fight scene ever:
-
Not all lives are being arrested on fake charges and being brutalized regularly, but Black Lives are and hence the protests and anger.

I’m an American. I am not invested in a crime that happened in France because crimes happen everywhere. Also, I’m not racist so I don’t see a constant threat to my livelihood like you all do just because it’s a person of color who has the gun. You don’t mind when the French invaded other countries and killed and subjugated its countrymen.

No one cares what you think. Black lives do matter and you and your ilk can go to your grave crying and complaining about it.

This man was changing his tire when this police officer arrested him because he asked her why he needed to show her ID simply because he was changing a flat tire. As you see in the video, she used excessive force. In her police statement she claims she found all sorts of drugs on him. She was unaware she was being filmed (by his brother). The video showed he had no drugs nor were drugs found on him later. He was initially put in jail with a 500k bond. He had no prior arrests. Once the video emerged, all charges were dropped.
-
He was handcuffed on the ground and lying still because he was being restrained for a long time. He was not a threat to anyone as he was not carrying a weapon and his arms and hands were bound by handcuffs behind his back. You are the exact same type of person who looked at the Rodney King video and argued that the police felt threatened because Rodney raised his arm while he was getting beaten. No one has ever claimed George Floyd was a good man.

I saw it in the late 80’s and never watched it again until last night. The movie is based on the real life gang rape of a woman in a bar on a pool table in Massachusetts: In 1983, Cheryl Araujo was a 21-year-old mother of two living in her hometown of New Bedford, Massachusetts. On March 6th, she went into Big Dan’s Tavern to buy cigarettes from a dispenser inside the bar. After chatting with a waitress and ordering a drink, Araujo was attempting to leave the bar when a man grabbed her from behind. She was gang raped on the bar’s pool table while others looked on. One man admitted during the trial that he shouted, “Go for it! Go for it!” during the assault. After more than two hours, Araujo managed to escape, and ran half naked into the street where she flagged down a car carrying three three men, including brothers Dan and Michael O’Neill. Based on your upbringing, do you believe the way rape was defined has changed since you were young? For those that remember the crime, some people believed the men were innocent because she enticed them or that her being in a bar alone implied she was deserving of the rape. I am old enough to remember being afraid for any girl who was drunk and went off with a boy. I was afraid she might get raped by him or him and his friends. I think men were not taught, like they are today, that taking advantage of a drunk girl was wrong. I recall boys laughing about “pulling a train on a girl”. Girls who were coerced or forced into having sex with more than one boy at a time, back in my day, told no one and faulted herself. (Luckily, I was not a victim of that sort of rape.) Today, thank goodness, boys and girls are taught that NO means NO and you can’t consent to sex if you are under the influence or under age. However, rape, when I was very young, was something that happened by a stranger not your boyfriend or husband or friend. It was a severely violent act. Furthermore, if you as a girl or woman were at a man’s house or room alone and you didn’t scream bloody murder then it wasn’t seen as being clear that you didn’t want to have sex or lead the man or men to believe that you wanted the sexual act to occur. For you older guys, do you remember having to unlearn certain behaviors or ways of thinking about what rape is or how and when to make sexual advances towards women?
