Read my previous posts, especially the post a few posts above. Wont be any us vs. them in my mind. White wife, mixed daughters, so in my eyes, to protect my family, I have no side. Only their sides. Anyone that threatens their safety, I will engage with extreme prejudice. Bring it and get it. Black or White. Or any other race, creed or nationality.I hate the sudden hard polarization of our country.

I can go to a BLM meeting in my city and would certainly be welcomed.
With open arms right?
DERAY MCKESSON: “...Ads have already been placed looking for people to help. I know you don’t care for them [white people] but this is the time we need our white allies doing a lot of the work for us. They are the ones who listen the best.”
JOHNETTA ELZIE: “...You know I can’t stand those white allies, but yo right this is the best to use them. They hang on every word you say and will do whatever is asked. I just hate all that kiss ass they try to do. Like that changes who they are.”
I know that's only 2 of them but one has to wonder just how many of them feel the same.
Thank you for demonstrating their hypocrisy. They're nasty. They despise white people.
Too bad we can't sort them out. They're the ones who made it us -vs- them. I can deal with that. They won't be able to ... and they'll cry and cry.

So then even you can see they are racist like the KKK is. Yet you seem to be fine with it...that doesn't bother you?
And nether will I. And didn't say it was your problem. And I'm not intimidated by you and your kind, whatever the f@ck that's supposed to mean. I already said what I said and I have no squabble with you. But you seem to have a problem with me and for what. My family has served this country PROUDLY AND WITH HONOR from WWII til this second. Don't get all rah rah with me because of some BLM idiots. I'm not the one.

Not my problem. You might have an easier time shplaining said polarization to the people doing the polarizing. 'Cause when my kind get around to it ... we ain't talkin' wif words.

I would not accept the ignorance of a KKK member either. I don't believe in treating others inferiorly because of their race. I would condemn it and vocally disagree with it. That's what it takes to combat divisiveness. They can say what they wish as words don't hurt, well unless they advocate physical revenge on those they deem inferior. Which they seem to constantly do. That gets people killed.
You just seemed so nonchalantly cool with it I was just curious why really...

Wow! The butt hurt in this thread is real. Sucks being treated differently. Especially on something as stupid as skin color.

More like Prejudice 101. Those idiots don't have the power or numbers to be racist. A racist can keep you from a lot of things in life because of control of all necessary resources and predominance. BLM has no such power and never will.
I'll agree to disagree to a degree about your take on racism. I appreciate your civility.

I appreciate your point about all blacks not supporting BLM. I find myself having to say this a lot on ATS, but guess what, black folks, just like white folks, aren't monolithic. Some are republican some dem, some christian some muslim, etc. So i am with you there.
However, what you have typed above is becoming a common claim that I find to be unbelievably dangerous. First if this is true, how can a poor white person be a racist? What power do they have over black people? Yet if they would lynch a black person for being black, people would rightfully scream racism. Yet if a black person kills a white and says its cause he hates whites, people say thats not racist because he doesn't have institutional power. Thats ridiculous.
Also, this idea that black (and i am not saying you said this but many do) people have no institutional power is ridiculous. There are many different institutions. One such is the legal system, where blacks may have less power and authority. Another is academia, where it is totally acceptable to bash whites, and anti whiteness is in almost every class and major. Lets not pretend this isn't institutional power.
There can also be different levels of power in the same institution. For example, most politicians are white, and yet ask any of them and they will tell you that being a minority gives you different advantages in politics. The point is the idea of only whites having institutional power is over simplified and leads to dangerous situations where it seems acceptable to bash poor wite people who have no power.
Racsim is hating someone for their race. Period, no exceptions.

I thought I made this abundantly clear, but seems as if I'm not a credible source. Please listen, MOST BLACK AMERICANS HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH WHITE PEOPLE. Believe me, I KNOW THIS. Just like MOST WHITE PEOPLE are cool with Black people. Yes there are SOME BLACKS that don't like Whites just as there are SOME WHITES that don't like Blacks. And MOST BLACK AMERICANS do NOT subscribe to the BLM bu!!s#!t. Tell a friend.
