Proof that black privilege is real

@msoft You haven't uploaded anything.. nor have you downloaded anything.. in the past 10 years. I can imagine that someone might not be smart enough to know how to upload anything, but there is no reason for them not DOWNLOADING anything in 10 years.

Umm, it's your side that has divided the country.
It's your guy that promised to unite the country but repeatedly called the other side names.
It's your side that repeatedly demands segregation of the races.

n-word will not vanish it has become a crutch when unintelligent white and black people need to complain. Racism will never vanish in the USA, look at the MAGA movement. Make America Great Again? For who? The time when "America was Great" for trumpites was not great for black people. BTW you did call black people n****gers just by imagining if you refered to them as such.
-
Of course, racism exists. No one ever said otherwise.
America was great when we still had manufacturing. Blacks also lost out when all those jobs left.
Umm, NO. Pointing out that it would cause a shit storm if I called blacks that name is pointing out that just that. Compare that to the way people are defending calling whites racist names.

@raphjd "Your side" this, and "your side" that. There you go proving my point again lol
-
Ah, so my side just has to allow your side to do whatever it wants, for "unity".

No one should be describing anyone except by anything but their name and/or clothing anytime you post something and say “If I said &$@@&” that is just pointing to fact that you say that’s things, but you don’t want the world to think or know that of you. What I hear is you say it all the time in private. Hidden racism is the most dangerous in my opinion.@raphjd

You being the good liberal that you are, believe that only whites can be racist.

Actually, me being the scientist that I am believes that the whole construct of race has been proven to be invalid. We are - genetically, and scientifically speaking - one "race": the Human Race.
"In the biological and social sciences, the consensus is clear: race is a social construct, not a biological attribute."
- https://sitn.hms.harvard.edu/flash/2017/science-genetics-reshaping-race-debate-21st-century/Oh, but you were taught about the 3 (or 5) different races as a small child - this destroys your "world view", so it must be false... never-mind that the DNA of humans hadn't even begun to be studied when you were "taught" about races 150 years ago (joking - 40 years ago? 30? even 20!)...
ANY idea that one person's ancestry gives them innate power over others is genetically absurd, and proven to be so...
And, as I've pointed out in these forums before, the American "idea" of race as being principally tied to skin color is unheard of in most other parts of the World - where White Christians and White Jews very much believe they are of different races! Not only that, but White Jews and Darker-Skinned Jews - even Black Jews - very much believe that they are of the same race: the Jewish race!
And again - it's all in our collective heads... there is NO biological difference ... and basing decisions - pro-White, pro-Black, or otherwise based on outdated concepts of "race" is wrong.
While that is scientifically true, it is of little value to ignore the social constructs and ancestral histories that have provided "race-based" advantages and disadvantages to people of certain skin colors based on these outdated and dis-proven concepts of "differences"...
While there is no scientific basis for race differentiation, there certainly are social and societal bases... it will take generations for us - as a society - to tear down these now discredited social belief systems. And it will take a concerted effort - among all - to accelerate the path to a "one race" society... but that won't be my generation, nor even my grandchildren's... and so each generation must do its part to move us (societally) to a more honest and just acceptance of people - all people - as "racially" equals...
Sounds "pie in the sky" - but 400 years ago, it was a popular belief that Black people were "inherently inferior" to other races - and were incapable of being educated to the same degree as Whites! (That's historical fact, not my belief!) Take a look at any college campus today and you'll see proof that those beliefs were wrong - and while considerable progress has been made, there is much more to be done...
