Not racist because being a victim of racism makes you exempt from any future racism?


i was being sarcastic


I know lol.

I was just trying to shed light on some circular logic.

Sorry just actually lol'd at this.


I personally do not care whether you like cops or not, regardless of what they've done or been accused of doing...

But this viral photos is what matters to me...







Original article

#BlackLivesMatter *IS* a racist front. It *IS* no different than the KKK or Skinheads.


We are either in this together, or we're not in it at all.

I'd give my life for yours...would you gives yours for mine?

Flame on. Chances are, I won't even read any responses to this. I can hear the crying now.


How many people have "Black Lives Matter" killed? Because the KKK has killed many thousands of Americans, burned a countless number of black majority churches, and personally maintained Jim Crow laws in the South. In its prime in the 1920s, the KKK claimed control over more than half of the state legislatures, with 1 in every 4 white males in the South being official members.

Skinheads & neo-Nazis follow the teachings and ideology of Hitler and the Nazis. The Nazis literally killed 10s of millions of people, including being responsible for the deaths of at least 10 million white Slavic people. Most historians put that number closer to 20 million, but I'm trying to be nice here.

So how is "Black Lives Matter" anywhere close to this? That's like me saying the Tea Party is no different than Chingiss Khan/Genghis Khan's empire because they both needed to breathe, eat, and sleep.

This is literally why politicians dumb things down so much. Because apparently some people can't understand any more complex than "me good, he bad, hurr hurr hurr".

Also, is this supposed to be good or bad? Since actual KKK members & skinheads are extremely right wing. So is a KKK or neo-Nazi sympathizer on the right wing supposed to support "Black Lives Matter" now or not? Y'all can't even get your stories straight.


wait so you are taking a relatively new movement, asking how many they have killed

then taking skinhead neo-nazis, and saying hitler killed millions? have skinheads killed millions? we know the democrat KKk killed a lot of black folks for sure!

history sucks huh?


-facepalm-

Did you miss the entire point of this thread? The OP is the one comparing this "relatively new movement" to skinheads and the KKK. Or did you not read that far?

And yes, I pointed out why BLM is nothing like skinheads or the KKK. Then I presented facts. But apparently my post was too long for you to get that?

Oh sorry, I need to be brief. "OP make comparison, I show OP's comparison not valid. Me also not Dem, me independent! Oooh oooh ohh! And if KKK so bad, why extreme right wing still embrace them? Hurr hurr hurr!"



skinheads and KKK are racist
BLM is racist

theres your comparisson all neat and tidy without the whole but but how many people were killed diatribe

youre welcome

also the EXTREME right are a minority just like the EXTREME left


And I already posted why that comparison is invalid.

You can't compare someone to the KKK without mentioning the violence the KKK committed. That was the KKK's whole point: to maintain racial segregation by any means necessary, legal & illegal. BLM is absolutely nothing like that. Hence why the comparison is invalid.

Same goes with skinheads & neo-Nazis, who follow actual Nazis. They were another absolutely violent & genocidal organization that killed 10s of millions of people. They controlled a government & conquer several other countries. BLM is nothing like that.

Also, how can you, an apparent right winger, compare BLM to the KKK & skinheads when today's actual KKK & skinheads are right wingers too? Do you reject them & their sympathizers or do you accept them? Because if you accept them, then say BLM are like them, wouldn't you accept BLM too?


are the KKK racist? yes
is BLM racist? yes...are BLM murderers? not yet.....

there we go


Thanks. You just proved my original point about why politicians dumb things down so much. Because apparently some people can't understand anything more complex than "me good, he bad, hurr hurr hurr".

Lemme guess, the word "blackmail" is racist too since it's not "black-n-whitemail"?


do i look like al sharpton to you? snow is white! therefor its racist!!


You're the one comparing BLM to the KKK & skinheads. There's no way you can know anything of substance about either of those groups then come to the conclusion that they're similar.

"Hey, Genghis Khan's empire & the Tea Party are just alike because they both breathe air. Totally similar!"

Probably the best post on this thread thumbs up and a star for you making real comparisons. Black lives do matter, its ok to understand that. Now as a white skined person I am all for the black lives matter movement, there is alot of racism in this country and African American people are the target of alot of racism, a movement to call that racism out isnt racist at all. I stand with the black lives matter folks, and I stand against racism everywhere. The KKK needs to be labeled a terrorist organization and its members imprisoned for crimes against humanity.

But for the rest of you idiots to deny that systematic racism has existed since the end of the civil war is assinine. Jim Crow and all, and y'all are going to deny that black folks have been held down. Want to pull out my grandfather's purchase agreement from 1955 for his burial plot, that told him he could not sell it to person of color. Or talk to my mother who graduated HS in 1957, small town Missouri, and they still had the colored school.

Or my little town in Missouri who threw a fit in 1972, when they had a section 8 housing situation, and OMG, we had negroes living in my town. This crap has gone on for too long, we all bleed the same color, we are all the same, when are you racist asshats going to realize that.


Why are there all black schools still and not all white? Why is there a TV station that is BET (Black Entertainment Television)? That is continuing racism. Not to mention there are all black fraternity's and sorority's, there are no all white ones, they may discreminate, but that is class to class. The black ones literally won't even accept a white person's application. Racism still lives and more with the coloreds today.

Honestly, a lot of these people know this. They're just playing ignorant. ATS has a lot of older members who were teenagers or full grown adults during the times of Jim Crow laws & forced racial segregation. They know full well how things really were. There's even a thread here (a rant) called "African American Names!", where members here openly admit to throwing out job applications if they had stereotypical "black" names. but they're the first ones to claim institutionalized racism is fake.

I was born & raised in the South. Most "white" people I know here can tell you exactly which family members owned slaves, how many, and a lot more. They can tell you which members were in the KKK too, if you ask. And that includes the liberal, progressive, and centrist people here.

So to compare BLM to the KKK is so far off that it doesn't even make sense.


I can look back and tell you who in my family free'd them upon their death, I can tell you a lot about my family, but outside of "George Washington Slept Here", is relatively unimportant.

My best friend in Florida, was a 6'4" gay black man, he was the best man at my wife and I's wedding. He and I used to travel to car shows and auctions together. It even extends to my wife's mother, she couldn't have her white daughter dancing with the best man, even though the three of us often went out together. Pissed the Mom in Law off even more, when I danced with my friend. No for all the perverts, he and I were just friends. This is probably more of a rant, just tired of the hate.

Because people are still idiots and don't understand that things were white only for a long time, the blacks are trying to catch up. I will pretty much bet that I could walk up and pledge a black fraternity and be accepted, maybe not, I am old guy. Your use of the term coloreds tells me all I need to know about you, I lived in the south for several years.

Because they also believe in segregation, therefore are no different than whites. It's just that within the last 30 or so years whites accept blacks to make their own segregations where blacks throw (Imus's words) nappy headed ho holler fests to get their word in, and whites still are told to feel guilty for slavery. When will that end? Never. IMHO Blacks are the same as whites, and if blacks want to have an all black anything, go to an all black community or to Africa, or else it is not American and segregationalist. There for racist.

What would happen if NAACP were attacked by the KKK? Yin Yang I presume.

I am in my late 20's and was in a fraternity. We had 3 black people out of 70 guys, a few mexicans thrown in there. This is coming from a very white state in the Midwest. But no, a white person could not go into an all black fraternity and be accepted, it is in their code, I have spoken to them about the fact-several times. There were several times I was recruiting a black person to join our fraternity and a black fraternity on campus would call me and tell me to not pursue him, he was "their ground to indoctrinate first," I swear those were the words I was told on multiple occasions. If you want to know more about me, I lived in the same house as Johnny Carson did when he was in our fraternity.

You sir, are a racist, and I am sure you are proud of it. I am truly sorry that you live in and try to represent the country that my family has been in since the 1600's. You are the type of individual that makes me ashamed to be an American. Gee, Imagine that, I am a veteran.

I am not a racist, I am pointing out how ridiculous blacks have gotten. Have you ever researched anything in your life? Whites are shot by police more than blacks, there are more whites in jail than blacks, there are more whites on welfare than blacks, I am saying that blacks think they should have better rights than whites and yet they have the same rights. There is no discrimmination, it is only percieved by those who hold racist thoughts within their own mind who percieve acts of injustice as racist.

Yet another idiot veteran who was indoctrinated to kill another race besides his own. But yes you are not racist because of it lol.

In the nation today black's get their way when they complain and argue, they have their own coalition, their own causcus, their own whatever they want, and yet it is racist if whites want one thing to thmeself? Who is actually racist? I regrettably voted for Barack Osama on the first go around but guess what, evil lies in all races, learned that lesson quick.

Sigh.

BlackLivesMatter is an organization/movement calling attention to and fighting racism, profiling, and filtering against blacks by police that results in brutality, violence, or death. It addresses a specific and very real issue in this country.

In this context, AllLivesMatter is what exactly?

Vacuous.
