Race itself is a cultural construct that is fairly new. Regardless, you’re basically saying that a person who happens to have light skin must abide by the same cultural standards no matter their own history, the history of their family, where they’re from, etc. That’s pretty damn idiotic. 

I guess people who dress up as Andorians shouldn’t paint their skin blue either, right? 

No. That’s not the context for this. The woman is Lithuanian. What does African slavery have to do with her?! She’s somehow tied to European slavery because she happens to have light skin? That’s racist!

Seriously? Do you not understand the point of this show? It’s a f*cking PARODY OF FAN SERVICE. It’s making fun of the excessive fan service in many anime. Holy hell. Wake up.

How the hell can you even have Kill La Kill without fan service? Half the point was her self consciousness with her body, the type of self consciousness that any person of that age has. The fan service amplified that element and turned it into half the plot.

There is already plenty of anime that has little to no fan service. If you don’t know that, you need to look harder before complaining about it.

Maybe the abundance of Pokemon players will reduce the number of suicides there.

Niantic is so dumb for doing this. There are no damages to the company, and in fact the company is benefiting. Of course, I suppose this is another downside to the unconstitutional copyright laws that prevent innovation.

It’s all a matter of perspective and will power I guess.

It’s terrifying, isn’t it?

> No, the study you cited suggests that black people are having significantly more encounters with police than is statistically probable...

Uh no; it doesn’t. The problem is, you’re ignoring the higher crime rate among the sub-population for which you are suggesting bias.

> The probability of being shot is

Where?

> Yes, that’s true.

> There are always shared traits across social groups, and if you’re denying that, you’re denying fundamental reality.

Got it. All “black people” must have shared traits, that only “black people” have, because they are “black.”

“The black experience” is a racist concept. That’s to say that everyone who is “black” has essentially the same experience.

Basically, whatever you disagree with is flawed. If racism were involved, why is hesitation greater when the target is a minority?

> What about the societal problem about why minorities are more likely to come in contact with police? I could use that argument to combat basically every one of these points.

Actually it’s probability theory, statistics, and a variety of other things. If racism is to blame, then one would expect that the probability of being shot, given that you have come into contact with a cop, is greater for minorities. But that’s not the case. Furthermore, one would expect less hesitation to shoot when

I said that the issue was not an issue of race. It was an issue of abuse, against the general population, by the police force.

It must be great to live in “lala land.” One doesn’t need to respond with an argument, all that’s needed is a big ol’ “wrong.”
