I think he is mentally ill like most true conservatives and racists. They suffer from a high level of paranoia and neuroses and, as we see in the last bit here, delusions that are either self-serving for attention or come from psychosis.

To be fair, that was always painted as Wakanda’s greatest flaw. But when you spend your existence fighting off colonialism, and likely saw what the West did the people who didn’t have the resources that they had, its not unrealistic for them to say “Fuck it, we’re good on our own.” Not everyone takes the moral high…

Well they do help, they just don’t share. Just look at Civil War. The bomb crossbones set off and was directed up killed Wakandan aid workers.

Yeah, as we all know the Marvel forumal is always about African nations with an almost entirely black cast. That trust ol’ chestnut, the Marvel formula.

Let me help you: this looks amazing.

Right. And because of his pull in Hollywood, those that did speak out had to do so with coded language. He could ruin people and I understand not wanting to cross that.

Unless the car belings to one of them (highly unlikely), vandalism. A felony in most municipalities

Yes, a crime. Absolutely. It is illegal to threaten, menace, intimidate. When you or your lived ones are the victim.of this crime, then you will suddenly underatand the actions for.what they are. Your dismissiveness is not, however, a crime, just deeply diaconcerting

Just to add

I think that counts for the “reverse racism” square. “Two wrongs” is very close to #alllivesmatter, but I won’t count it. You guys should try a little harder so I can get a bingo.

You say invest, I say colonize. But whatever.

The People’s Republic hasn’t so much as “invested” in just secured future deposits of key materials for the next century or so.

Yes but much like the railroads built by Europeans those roads aren’t meant to get people around but to pull minerals and oil out. The loans are just putting them into even more debt anyhow which gives China leverage on the local government.

There are so many things at play here. It’s really just sickening. This is definitely an important point though.

yeah, I was about to say you can google and read all about the apartheid like conditions china has created in several african countries and predominately afro caribbean islands. The situation with the chinese government and jamaica for example is tense.   

It’s seems like the same mentality that brought about “The White Man’s Burden” burden back in the day. From what I understand, US and British imperialists sold their ideas as humanitarian. Of course, it was just profit seeking as usual.

But police? A crime?

It would be the thought police if they had left it at bigoted thoughts. When you do something like this, viewable on a public platform, it becomes a job for the actual police.

Racism like most of the ‘isms’ and most in-group and out-group think is largely the result of resource protection for the in-group. As such, as those competing for resources become more able to obtain power and resources, those using in-group tactics become more virulent. It’s the reason that racism is more vocal and…

I don’t give a fuck about their feelings. How do you think the native students feel? It’s never too early for anyone to realize the world is unjust. Please don’t try to tell me it just makes things worse—those unable to think critically, who would lash out at others in this situation would find an excuse to do so…
