She was a college professor. She’s definitely gotten the subtle sarcasm down pat.

But that’s the thing. White people like to make those sorts of arguments, as if race isn’t paramount. They assume that you can’t track the bouncing ball. If you say “the media”, then that’ll assume you think it’s some large apparatus divorced from white... when that phrase usually mean “the mostly white media”.…

It also acts like white people have no agency whatsoever. Like... well, that’s all that’s available, so.... when all we ever hear about is how white people built America. Shit, if it’s always been a damn meritocracy, how come they didn’t pick their own cotton and other shit like that? I don’t give a damn if it’s cheap…

It’s a game for them... like, putting a finger up to somebody’s face and saying “I’m not touching you”. That’s their tell. “You can’t prove it.” You can’t prove it to them means, I know I’m racist but I can dance around it until you indulge me in a pointless diatribe of why I act the way that I do. This earns a punch…

As if anybody ever needed to be a mind-reader to know what they are.

If the Klan and Neo-Nazis find you to be favorably racist and black people hate your guts, why don’t the other white people know what racist is?

We don’t require criminals confess to crimes in order to know they did something criminal, when there’s…

But there’s the idea right there. You can’t just “believe” your way out of racism. You can’t just say “I don’t see it”, therefore it doesn’t exist. At least not have credibility if you do feel that way.

The Articles of Secession were pretty clear on this stuff on slavery. Any white person who claims that slavery wasn’t…

What is YOUR job? Do you have one? Is it being the Internet police? Beat it.

You get it, but then why comment about it, then? Have the same energy to criticize them when they get away with the stuff as you do for these people splashing down wet pigs.

“Maybe” is the manifestation of that unearned benefit of a doubt white people give themselves and expect us to also give to them. That is one of the largest white privileges that exists... because it allows them to coast through society as if they are innocent voyeurs, non-actors never contributing to the problems or…

Howard County being a bastion of racist hate in Maryland doesn’t shock me at all. I look at how they created Columbia. You know white people created all of those curvy, winding roads and cul-de-sacs because they were scared of black folks (presumably criminals) driving down their streets. It’s a regular feature of…

And this white woman is in her 50s, so this was post-MLK assassination, when supposedly all white people woke up and realized racism was bad (if you listen to white conservatives).

I thought it was weird that she adopted black children but didn’t understand that racism is still prevalent as hell. That’s why bothers me about white people adopting black children. Given the history and current events, one always has to think about what their intentions are with these children. Is it to serve them,…

It’s easy to bitch about it because it seems like it’s only one fucking white person at a time having the Goddamn epiphany. They keep *just* learning shit. That is aggravating when this stuff is ubiquitous. You can’t turn on the news without seeing how differently people are treated or watch a television program…

That’s exactly what I was thinking. The second I read that he fired a black chief for secretly filming cops, that rung the bell for me. Typically, these cops all stick together. Blue Lives Matter/Blue Wall of Silence BS. You have to be some kind of super reformer to try to secretly film racist/corrupt cops as the…

Yes, you will, and you do.

You either had slaveownership in your family which trickled down in terms of wealth and/or education, or your people came here after the fact to piggyback on that wealth and subsist on the policies other white people used to enrich themselves at our (and natives’) expense. So kiss my ass with…

I know, right? Biggest copout, ever. Nobody in this country agrees on everything. We’re going to get these people to agree on a fundamental truth that’s uncomfortable and requires money? YEAH RIGHT.

You sound lost. He wasn’t strong. Saying he should pivot sounds like you care more about his tone than about his answer, which to me suggests you either aren’t black, aren’t concerned, or maybe just naive. Beto is dead in the water. Buttigieg will definitely fall off, and Biden may or may not remember that he’s not…

Yeah, I would never trust somebody who pushes reparations as part of a suit of programs or practices government should be doing for its citizens, anyway. Reparations is specifically to address slavery, so land and cash money. All of the rest of it is BS.

It can happen if Dems win enough seats. The problem is, Dems never show any promise when they actually do win, so people get angry and don’t show up again in some places.

See that’s the thing. These Democrats keep giving these a-holes the benefit of a doubt that they’ve never earned. It’s like saying, if you teach white people about the bad stuff, they all have a damn epiphany. Why is it that every generation, white people forget about all of the bad shit they’ve done and continue to…
