History: Racism in America Today.

[Ontologuy]

Still, there's a sizable difference in levels of bigotry between burning crosses in their yard versus genuinely wishing them well while subconsciously underestimating their capabilities or qualifications, or only appreciating the ones who "act white." Do you agree?

Meaningless, as your contrived construct here is simply not happening all throughout northern capitalist countries to qualify it definitively according to Merriam-Webster to be "structural"/"institutional"/"systemic" racism.

So it's not worth discussing.

You may have first heard about the concept of microaggressions from BLM last summer, but Psychology Today talked about it 10 years ago and it involves more than just race.

Critical race theory was developed in the late 1970s, mostly by Professor Derrick Bell, a communist, who said that "capitalism is evil". The erroneous term "microaggression" was coined then. Esoteric use of the term to erroneously refer to supposedly "unconscious" or "unintended" racist expressions can be found, as your post here presents, in various places since then. BLM, however, is the first organization to really run with CRT and its erroneously employed control-based terms as a means of mass manipulation. Referencing an erroneous term or a terms erroneous use, as you do regarding "microaggression", doesn't make that term less erroneous or meaningless.

On equity disparity and systemic racism, according to the National Bureau of Economic Research, as of 2003 resumes with black names were 50% less likely to get called for interviews. And here are 26 more examples from BI.

Neither of your examples reflect racism. The first one merely jumps to a conclusion without interviewing the decision makers, thus it merely assumes, and thereby cannot be considered a valid study. A particular firm could have maxed out its "quota" of a particular race and rejected those it thought belonged to that race. That's not an example of racism; that's an example of perhaps jumping to a conclusion.

The second one is an opinion piece. I viewed some of the 26 examples and they were clearly not evidence of racism. I'm pretty sure none of them were. Again, without knowing the accurate "why" of a matter, you're just jumping to conclusions.

And again, for there to be systemic racism it has to be: 1) shown for certain that it's indeed racism, and 2) it must exist, according to Merriam-Webster, essentially throughout the, in this topically relevant case, entire country.

Your examples showed neither to be the case.

I appreciate the offer for more relevant information on CRT, but my beliefs are not based on CRT and as you can probably see I prefer high quality sources of authority, not so much things like blog posts from BraveNewAmerican. Thanks though!

Having read the blog post and studied BLM and CRT myself I can tell you that if you want to learn the truth about BLM and CRT that particular blog is the best I've read. It even references scientific studies and Wikipedia. It's pretty much right on.

But your supposed preference for "high quality sources of authority" is considerably suspect, considering you've rejected the highest quality definitive source for the definition of "racism", Merriam-Webster, falsely alleging it to be "incomplete".

OMG, Montgomery, could your sophistry be more obvious?! "Trained Marxists" and "trained to be Marxists" is pretty much the same thing here. And BLM's contrived Marxist dualism of oppressed Blacks v. oppressor Whites is clear evidene that BLM's presentation from communist critical race theory is Marxism that they're executing.



The rest of your post here is simply pure denial -- you've realized that BLM is a communist Marxist organization, founded by communist Marxists, executing Marxist ideology in the framing of their statements .. and yet for some probably ideological reason, or because they've successfully duped you into thinking BLM is all about "anti racism" when that's merely their Marxist Trojan horse, you can't bring yourself to say the obvious, that BLM is indeed a communist Marxist organization .. and such an organization is a bad thing in a capitalist society, obviously.

Why don't you do yourself an edifying favor and read the linked article in the OP of my signature link below. It may be worth it to you.

Stop being silly for their sake. BLM is a protest movement against the huge racism problem that was capitalized upon by Trump.
And fwiw, a regime that's now fearing a fascist coup by it's military, could benefit greatly by a good dose of Marxism.

You need to grow up and start understanding why you're so lucky to be a Canadian. (if you really are?) We're #1 in the world on quality of life because we lean slightly left on the larger world's political spectrum.

If you're really a Canadian, batten down the hatches and devise your survival plan. The US could turn their catastrophic situation into something nuclear!

You're very committed and entrenched in your beliefs but I don't want to be a part of your growing pains. Just think of me as one of the millions of Canadians who are commies, and then you'll find satisfaction you crave in saving the world from the red scourge! Or from black people, whatever you've made to be your mission in life.

Stop being silly for their sake.

Your ad hominem here is actually a projection. You're clearly engaging in a very silly defense of BLM.

BLM is a protest movement against the huge racism problem that was capitalized upon by Trump.

Wow -- you've completely drank the BLM Kool-Aid!

BLM's faux virtue signaling of "anti-racism" is merely part of the Trojan horse front they put up to dupe people into doing their Marxist communist dirty work. It's amazing how some people are so ideologically blinded to the truth of it.

There is no "huge racism problem" in America .. well other than BLM creating a faux mass hysteria that there is when there isn't.

And Trump isn't racist, there's no actual evidence that he is. Also he never "capitalized" on a "huge racism problem" because no such problem existed. Trump capitalized on capitalism over socialism, that's all he did .. but, of course, Marxist communist BLM is more aligned with socialism than capitalism, obviously ... .

And fwiw, a regime that's now fearing a fascist coup by it's military, could benefit greatly by a good dose of Marxism.

Well now, here you finally admit that you're a leftist in line with Marxist communist BLM!

I don't know why it takes you so long to admit to the obvious?!

You need to grow up and

Oops -- another ad hominem projection by Montgomery!

start understanding why you're so lucky to be a Canadian. (if you really are?) We're #1 in the world on quality of life because we lean slightly left on the larger world's political spectrum.

Whether or not your conclusion is true about our place in the quality of life standing, your premise that it's caused by leaning slightly left is definitely false. It's in spite of a significant left orientation that we're doing as well as we are, which, all in all, we could be doing a whole lot better.

If you're really a Canadian, batten down the hatches and devise your survival plan. The US could turn their catastrophic situation into something nuclear!

Now that's just silly. One faction of the U.S. isn't going to launch on the other. That's, that's, just silly.

And now your mocking patronizing only evidences your lack of facts, debate skills, and political awareness.

You keep talking about "my" "growing pains"

But I would hazard a guess that my decades of studying and writing about political science and political psychology has provided me with a depth of knowledge that far outstrips yours.

Still, you've twice now admitted you're a communist or communist sympathizer.

Thus your support of Marxist communist BLM is understandable.

Canada is a communist country run by the Liebruls, who fight against the Conservative plans of a fascist coup.

 

[RetiredUSN]

The racism is still so prevalent and powerful in the US south that Trump was able to put it to his political use in the very same way Hitler used the Jews to blame for 30's Germany's problems. That was what made Trump's popularity among working class Americans.
Now that Trump is gone, it's the right time to talk about it.

Because poverty hasn't gone away and it's certain that Biden won't do the job, mostly because of the opposition to his intended reforms but also due to Biden's need to uphold the status quo of the very wealthy.

Trump never even tried to escape from the power of the very wealthy, and didn't ever acknowledge that was America's problem.

Why don't you go do some actual deep studying on post slavery America before you post this generic trash?

The black people who escaped to the north still faced many many racist people, cities, and institutions. And it continues in northern states today.

Yes, I agree!

[TheParser]

I've answered your question on another thread and I know that I've answered it several times on this board. America created a race problem by holding black people back in poverty and lack of acceptance by white people.

Black people weren't even allowed to live in many new sub-divisions, post WW2.

Why?



If you're truly trying to understand then I'll try to provide some answers, and I'll ask for help with questions I can't answer.

Why?

C'mon, everyone knows why.

“Marxist dirty work”. You still don’t know where the conspiracy theory forum is?

 

[Eatomus]

There is so much we can & should learn about wealthy white privilege racism from Canadians and their leader Sir Justin, as the author of this thread has instructed .
Won't you dear northern neighbors please teach us more ?
We want so much to learn from you .
