But what happens to most host countries after the Olympics leave town?

I've stopped shopping at Whole Foods since their dumb Co-founder and CEO said the Affordable Healthcare Act is bad for workers.

"Hey stealing is bad but people get raped so we can ignore it for a while"
Your logic is deeply flawed and your go-to example is...disturbing.

"I have no privilege"
I don't think you understand what privilege is. Again, do some fancy book learning please. I mean, you have an internet connection, right?

"White people…

"Honest question: when a person of color is on trial, be it criminal or civil, do you think their jury and judge should be comprised only of other people of color? "
People of color face harsher judgments than whites in courts. People of color are held to different standards than whites at all levels in society.

Thank…

What I'm saying is you don't quite understand what reverse racism is because you act like it's a real thing or a real problem. Also, look up "white privilege." I'm just trying to help you out because you look real stupid and at some point it (maybe it's too late), the people around you are gonna figure out you're…

Stop flipping out, whiteboy.
Google search "reverse racism" and do some reading.
Maybe learn your way out of being so dumb?

"Using your reasoning, no black person's behavior can ever be scrutinized because they are systemically oppressed."

No. What I'm saying, is white people don't get to scrutinize black people - or any other people of color for that matter. It might be difficult for you and other privileged whiteboys to understand, but…

Oh, you're one of those whiteboys who think "reverse racism" is an actual thing. HAHAHAHAHA.
Racism against whites...I wish!

Sigh.
"PS - you don't understand the term false equivalence."
Asking a white person to check the racism of other white people IS different from whitey telling black people to police "fix/stop the undesirable actions of other black people" because of historical context. Most white people like to deny that racism is…

"White people are not the only ones who express and hold racist ideas towards black people."
That is such a white person thing to say (the evasiveness of it).

"But maybe more to the point—how would you suggest I get the racists amongst white people (since I apparently bear some responsibility for their actions) to…

"See, what I don't understand is why she didn't just tell him to stop...Unless she knew he was drunk and wanted to mess with him or something, I don't understand."

I was responding to the above comment, you fool. And you know it doesn't have to be rape to have harmful effects in society - language, ideas,…

Spoken like a true whiteboy.

If you're not that kind of white person, great. How about you help stop the racist ones instead of pointing useless things out?

"In the aftermath of the guilty verdict, several people observed that many of the teens at the party didn’t realize that this was rape. To them, the fact that the victim was unconscious didn’t mean anything. “I didn’t know this was rape,” said one witness. “It wasn’t violent.” It wasn’t a stranger leaping out of the…

You need to read about "Enthusiastic Consent" and why your comment of why "she didn't just tell him to stop" perpetuates rape culture:

You are a gentleman (gentlewoman) and a scholar.

Thanks for sharing. Those are interesting ideas. I still think there will be people who are marginalized and exploited because I don't think globalization will address - or has addressed - social and cultural problems thus far. In the future, any surviving Native Americans (and people who can empathize or…
