General Politics Discussion VII [ARCHIVED] • Page 1732

wake up: maybe today will be different and good for a change

looks at chorus fm genpol thread: ah, no. the same old fucking dumbasses being fucking dumbasses on the internet.

 

“there is only one race the human race” don’t let me ever catch you posting on this url again you fucking moron lol

 

that's my point.

I deleted the post tho haha

 

No need to engage with someone who clearly has not been reading this thread lol

 

Yes, insulting the people who think differently is the answer. People with that stance deserve everything that is happening to them.

 

racism and policing are too intertwined to just be color blind when talking about justice and solutions. And while it’s true that police brutality also has a class element that extends to all races, the disproportionality of African Americans in the lower class and segregated extremely poor neighborhoods ALSO has its roots in racism and policing. So we can’t really talk about solutions to police brutality and social justice without acknowledging and confronting race.

What the police really believe

10 things we know about race and policing in the U.S.

 

you are not thinking differently, you're making excuses for systemic racism. shut the fuck up.

police are out there murdering black folks and you're saying dumb shit like "mmm is the looting going to far guys?"

shut.
the.
fuck.
UP.

you bumbling fucking moron.

 

Who deserves what now?

 

quick q: do you think there is a such thing as good cops

 

When this thread hits 88 mph...you're gonna see some serious shit.

 

you’re a better person than me but there’s also zero chance they read any of these links

ramona all over again

 

that's a very weird speed for this thread to hit, is that number in reference to something?

(88 is usually code for Heil Hitler where I'm from)

 

Oh god no....haha I'm just quoting Doc Brown from Back to the Future.

 

ah okay! haha

I need to revisit those movies. maybe one day.

 

Best trilogy of all time.

 

they aren’t going far enough

 

*child terrorist shoots BLM protesters dead in the street*

Hmmm, are BLM really the bad guys here? I am not asking this question in bad faith at all

 

Finally someone with a polite counter argument...


I don't justify anything. Racism exists and it's terrible, and those things should not have happen. I'm just suggesting long term solution that can benefit everyone, and i wanted to know other people's opinion.

In the end, i don't even know why i'm trying to argue. No matter the outcome, it will not change my life at all. Hope no one will suffer anymore because of their skin color. Peace...

 

is this an episode of i love films

 

yes. this is certainly what you meant by it. quoting rosa parks while you’re saying the BLM movement is going too far.

answer my prior question: do you think there is a such thing as good cops

 

Your solution isn’t a solution and only benefits the racist classist system that people are rioting over. Telling people to calm down and being more upset about riots than the murders and state brutality that triggered that reaction is not a solution. You’re asking people to trust the status quo and trust that there isn’t a racist and classist criminal justice system and to just let the system root out the bad cops. But this has been happening for 100+ years here, the fact is this response is tame for what people have had to endure and is a product of the failed system that we’re demanding to change.

 

but guys they’re from europe, where there certainly has never been a history of cops disproportionately murdering groups of people for no reason. they don’t get it!

 

It really kills me when being willfully and woefully ignorant is “thinking differently” or “having a different opinion”
