Like, slavery in general? Are we going to do a chicken/egg thing with slavery in order to past some weird fucking judgement on the present? Do you understand context? Or fuck, basic fucking history? Are you fucking stupid?

There’s racism against people of african descent everywhere even in Africa (tribe vs tribe) so we can move past that but to say there’s no afro-arabians is a far stretch. Bilal was afro-arabian, the former imam of the great mosque in mecca was afro-arab, Muhammad Ahmad Mahdi who Actor Alexander Siddig is a descandant…

Word to the wise: thaQueenIsHere is a troll.

but I think it would be great we could use this conversation to figure out how to reinvigorate Arab-black relationships

This article is way more thoughtful than the song or video deserves. It’s cliched watered down hip hop. I wish that a woman could get this kind of attention for making more thought provoking music. About something other than her fancy shoes and money. (I’m glad she got her teeth fixed though).

You basically just described my family.

The sad irony is that Arab culture, especially in Gulf countries, is often anti-black itself. The lowly employment and mistreatment of dark-skinned immigrant workers has been regularly documented, and even black Arabs themselves endure common social ostracization in society.

That is quintessential white trouble-making, like that one asshole who makes every effort to use the word “niggardly” and is shocked when people react badly. Or the idiot who sports a swastika but swears she’s trying to reclaim it and goes on about its’ pre-Nazi origins. It’s that insidious “plausible deniability”…

You seem to be making two common assumptions. First, that producers may not be able to find a person of color (specifically an Asian-American in this case) that’s a great fit for the role, or even that casting a person of color will make a movie “shittier.” Second, that casting white people in a role is a safer and/or…

It kind of sounds like you’re saying that whitewashing movies makes them better.

Anytime he speaks for more than 10 minutes without shitting his pants, or saying something totally insane

That speech summed up:

“I will not say when we are going to attack, but attack we will.”

I wonder how his pivot regarding Pakistan and India is going to work out?

Is this an actual question? Mariota is mobile, but he is a better QB than Winston. Higher QBR, higher Comp %, higher YPR, Fewer INT, Fewer (last season) Fumbles. And is a decent human being to boot. Mariota has proven he is not a “mobile” QB, in that his career is not defined by his ability to run. Winston and Mariota…

Some of the most sickening rhetoric after police kill people of color comes from Fraternal Orders of Police/police unions, if you put it side by side with quotes from Bull Connor or George Wallace you wouldn’t be able to tell the difference. They already have damn near immunity, are they looking for sainthood after…

So, what we all imagined we were playing when we’re were playing this:

Calling BLM a hate group tends to derail the conversation. Because that’s fucking stupid.

You’re an engineer, which explains why you have no understanding of libel law.

I think we Americans confuse intelligence with morality. Those people are smart enough. They aren’t dumb... what they are is profoundly immoral.
