You're not good at these analogies. Apples to oranges.
Even using this logic you can argue laws helping AAs haven't done anything to lower their poverty rate, increase two parent households, etc. Not really sure where you are reaching with this.
posted by CenterBHSFanNah. It was more about how diversity often backfires and can/will be weaponized, basically. Not to mention the fact that affirmative action, by rule, has to discriminate against somebody - often other minorities. That's not reparations, equality, diverse, inclusive or any of the other virtue signal buzz words. It's discrimination. Ethnic (and many times sexual, religious and gender) discrimination.
Diversity weaponized lol as opposed to people actually getting killed haha

I’m saying the govt passed laws expanding civil rights but most white people hated the law and actually killed the guy who proposed the legislation? I’m doing shots now that may or not be true but if memory serves correct

You said: This reminds me of someone who has no chance of getting stop and frisked telling me stop and frisk is no big deal if you have nothing illegal on you lol
I said "yeah" and posted the original tweet from this guy:
Because clearly this looks like "someone who has no chance of getting stop and frisked telling me stop and frisk is no big deal if you have nothing illegal on you lol"
You're race baiting generalization didn't work. Can you understand now?
posted by geeblockIdk who that guy is I don’t follow him. I’m sorry it’s so hard to b white. I didn’t read his tweets. Not sure why u did it how hard u had to search for that. I scanned a few of his tweets u might as well as quoted Tomi or the girl Kanye follows. All my content is original thoughts u won’t see tons of links unless nec

Right. People don't like being called out, I gotcha.
posted by wkfanYou can tell by his responses that he is aware of all of this, but it doesn't fit his victimhood narrative.
Just a troll and not really interested in free exchange of facts and opinions.
I'm out....
Where I'm at. Peace geeblock!
G block are you over the age of 75? I've never seen someone so confused by the internet since I last spoke with my 84 year old grandma.

I guess I am. I thought he was posting a tweet about stop and frisk but all I see is some tweet from him and a possible black dude about admissions policy
You know you can just start a new paragraph in your post right? You don't need to post three times to get 3 points across
posted by geeblockTwitter nowadays is full of bots and people who pretend to be black to push the conservative agenda but ok my bad I guess
Is Candace Owens a bot? Or Noir for the NRA? Or Kanye for your bullshit? Conservative agenda, lol. Intelligence?
Talk about history of blacks. They literally have no reason to vote democrat except the poor ones getting free shit from the government.

"I implore you to use your powers to suspend the dated Posse Comitatus Act, which unfairly limits your ability to use domestic militarization to respond to crises, and send in the resources necessary to stem the violence overrunning Chicago. Let me explain why this measure is necessary, starting with my story."
"I am a black college professor who came to this country as a legal immigrant from Jamaica 32 years ago with $120 in my pocket. I worked for a year to save enough money for one semester of college, and for four years worked up to 45 hours per week while going to school full time. I graduated magna cum laude and then earned a scholarship to pursue a doctorate in philosophy. Not once did I believe that the state or America owed me anything except a chance to earn a living and pay my way as I journeyed through life."
Amen

Professors say some of the dumbest shit. Proof that a PhD might mean you're an expert in your field, but otherwise a moron.

I'll add Larry Elder, Tommy Sotomayor, Thomas Sowell to that list.
You know, the ones who are usually having names flung at them like token, house negro, etc. I've even seen people call Thomas Sowell "wypbipo" lol.

Professors should pretty much only be seen as experts in their field of study. Outside, that many are basically your average citizen, intelligence and all.
So where does that leave Rahm, and the other liberal gun restrictors ruling Chi-town.
Don't really have much to say about this, but some people here might find it interesting.

The happy hour is dumb, and reparations are dumb.

No reparations for Asians? Ohhh, that's right......
In other related news, Rachel Dolezal was arrested for welfare fraud [the jokes almost write themselves]

Yep. It's a contest of who has the most grievances that relies on willing participants and virtue signalling.
