Could it be Possible ...

... and I ask this without any pre-conceived opinion, that because of what the Democrats and their allies BLM and Antifa are 'preaching", many Americans who were never ever racists might now think that blacks in the USA are being favored over their white compatriots? Something like what is called "tranformation" or "previously disadvantaged individuals" as practised in South Africa today?

[PacificDude]

No. The trouble with racists is that most of them are in major denial (IMO). For example, most of my family members are racist big time (I still remember my aunt defending slavery because she claimed black people were given food, clothes, and little cabins to live in as long as they were willing to work). Also, she was forever stereotyping black people as lazy, dirty, stupid, dangerous, etc. Yet to hear her tell it - she had nothing against black people. More recently, she has used the riots and protests to her advantage to justify her reasons for not liking black people. In truth (because of her major denial) she has always been a racist. Now she has an excuse to justify it.

[Dax]

IMO racists never require any justification for their actions.

[Undies]

blacks have been favored in many ways for quite a while now. i don't notice much recent change based on democrats or blm. and being aware of the situation shouldn't make someone racist; it's not the black people's fault. if they use it to justify being racist, then they are just actual racist people who think that jealousy is a valid excuse.

I grew up in a family that is racist. Once you go in the world on your own and explore. You realize what you had heard from family of media is untrue about black people. People are people. “Judge by the content of their character, not the color of their skin” MLK

racism is taught by idiots who bully people deliberately.
The only way to stop racism is to call out those who are racist towards others.
You need to remember nobody can control where they were born and nobody can control what colour their skin might be.
You need to remember the word diversity.
That is one word that means acceptance.
go look it up on google if you want.

As long as we have policies and laws that favor one race over another, mild traces of racism will always exist in that society.

For example, Biden is already proposing Covid relief to black owned businesses only. This is an example of racism, as it prefers only one race of struggling businessman over another.

Great topic for general discussion. I was raised two wrongs don’t make a right and you are accountable for what you do and say. Can’t place ancestors and ppl from 400 years ago at blame. Judge people as individuals! What is going on in the USA and seeping it’s way into my land is disgusting. It stems from racism On the left that has always been their MO and is being ramped up by this marxist racist ideology to cancel out ppl who will not say they are anti racist with this double speak.

it is the goal and I reject it.

I feel like this question was asked so your pre conceived notion could be justified.

Also, how in the fuck is "stop killing black people" showing favoritism? Aren't you guys the pro life crowd?

Jesus fuckin christ

Again, at what point do you guys accept the fact that you're on the villain's side?

"Again, at what point do you guys accept the fact that you're on the villain's side?" This is your opinion to which you are fully entitled.

I wasn't aware that you are a mind reader. Also is it really necessary to use such foul language?

Yes. I know. That is how America works.

I'm not a mind reader and made no such claim. Not sure what you're talking about.

And, no, it's not necessary to use foul language... it's just fuckin fun

[Dax]

"And, no, it's not necessary to use foul language... it's just fuckin fun." Okay

[neonspectraltoast]

All the black people seem to know where the racism lies. With the right who want to make America great again; ie return us to the Jim Crow era. They aren't fooled and neither am I. The right = racism.

i know a woman who says outrageously racist things, but genuinely doesn't seem to realise they are racist. her reasoning is that they can't be racist, because she has some adoptive family who are black. i think perhaps a lot of racists are just also naturally pretty stupid, i don't mean that as an insult.. i like this woman okay, but she is undeniably not very bright, there are many indicators of this. So no, the BLM fueled stuff isn't what's making her racist, she already is, but without the BLM stuff it probably just wouldn't be noticed because she'd have no reason to talk about black people.
