2019-02-18 21:29:57 UTC

I'm simply offering the simplest possible explanation that reflects reality

2019-02-18 21:30:24 UTC

His actions weren't politically motivated. The media coverage later? That definitely was.

2019-02-18 21:31:08 UTC

Well. Personally, I think your reasoning doesnโ€™t delve enough into the reasons of why people do what they do. My experience has been there is always an ulterior motive. And itโ€™s never because they thought they could get away with it.

2019-02-18 21:32:45 UTC

You said this:

"Simple, because he assumed that everyone would be on his side due to the kids being white.
Now, what enabled him to assume this?
Racial tension"

Again, there's no "racial tension". The "racial tension" you are speaking about is the ***propaganda*** thrown out by the media, in other words, just because the fake news media says it doesn't make it true, nor does it explain faithfully how reality is actually.

You said he did that because of "racial tension", but what if he got all confused because of the media? Let's be honest, who'd be the first to report things and spin it for their own agenda? The fake news media.

Hence you see many of the young kids in college believing all the bullshit CNN tells them. If you think I am speaking out of my ass, go check some YouTube videos where people interview the young students about political matters and, for example, why they "voted for Hillary", and you'll see that they don't know shit. Like, for real, they do not know anything concerning the things they support.

Wanna know what caused that? The fake news media feeding them their fake information with the baby spoons.

2019-02-18 21:33:19 UTC

That's called identity politics, not "fake news media"

2019-02-18 21:33:43 UTC

I can show you MULTIPLE videos where there are young people interviewed about policies talked about in the fake news media, but not from their own selves.

2019-02-18 21:33:52 UTC

Here's one example

2019-02-18 21:34:45 UTC

First, they repeated what they heard from the news, without knowing the SUBSTANCE of the information. That's my point.

2019-02-18 21:35:13 UTC

And *everyone* does that

2019-02-18 21:35:26 UTC

Everyone parrots the news

2019-02-18 21:35:41 UTC

Yeah, and everyone parrots the fake news that there's "racial tension".

2019-02-18 21:36:17 UTC

Lemme just ask one thing to you, Larken.
(Fuck, I'm going to sound like a libtard now, but it's okay for the time being)

2019-02-18 21:36:30 UTC

It's all good.

2019-02-18 21:36:39 UTC

Have you ever been stared at as if you were a threat?

2019-02-18 21:36:45 UTC

Called a terrorist at airports?

2019-02-18 21:36:54 UTC

Had a knife pulled on you?

2019-02-18 21:37:07 UTC

The first yeah, the second question, no.

2019-02-18 21:37:10 UTC

Been pulled over for "random checks" at airports?

2019-02-18 21:37:23 UTC

Yes.

2019-02-18 21:37:30 UTC

Every time?

2019-02-18 21:37:33 UTC

No

2019-02-18 21:37:48 UTC

I've been pulled over for "random checks" every time I've been in a US airport.

2019-02-18 21:37:51 UTC

I'm not even 18 yet.

2019-02-18 21:38:08 UTC

I've been pulled over since the age of 4, when I first started making trips to India

2019-02-18 21:38:13 UTC

I guess you want me to ask you what's the color of your skin.

2019-02-18 21:38:21 UTC

I'll tell you

2019-02-18 21:38:22 UTC

I'm brown

2019-02-18 21:38:30 UTC

Hence the whole "terrorist" thing

2019-02-18 21:38:49 UTC

I am brown too, mixed.

2019-02-18 21:38:57 UTC

I've been told to "speak American" more times than I can count, even when I was speaking to a person who didn't know English

2019-02-18 21:39:02 UTC

Maybe you got lucky

2019-02-18 21:39:15 UTC

But racial tension isn't manufactured

2019-02-18 21:39:21 UTC

lol it is my friend.

2019-02-18 21:39:24 UTC

The fear that people have of a brown person?

2019-02-18 21:39:27 UTC

But keep on

2019-02-18 21:39:27 UTC

That's racial tension

2019-02-18 21:39:44 UTC

The fear people feel when a black person walks onto their train car? That's racial tension

2019-02-18 21:39:59 UTC

The black guy who hates Puerto Ricans in my community?

2019-02-18 21:40:02 UTC

Racial tension

2019-02-18 21:40:10 UTC

Racial tension isn't "whites vs minorities"

2019-02-18 21:40:14 UTC

It's *everyone*

2019-02-18 21:40:19 UTC

And it's natural.

2019-02-18 21:40:25 UTC

Alright, here's my point. I think I can make the distinctions now.

I'll give you that there is a "racial tension". What I am telling you that is NOT true, is that this "racial tension" you are speaking about is ***Natural***. It is ***artificial***.

2019-02-18 21:40:46 UTC

Racism, as it has been told to us, *is* manufactured

2019-02-18 21:41:07 UTC

While I can appreciate your personal resonance with racial tension, it is only your experience and dies not mean thatโ€™s what everyone else experiences. Now who is making assumptions.

2019-02-18 21:41:23 UTC

There's a "racial tension", but is NOT Natural; it is ARTIFICIALLY made by the media. That's my point.

2019-02-18 21:41:39 UTC

Racial tension exists, "racial tension" does not, is that better?

2019-02-18 21:41:46 UTC

Elaborate.

2019-02-18 21:41:54 UTC

The racial tension is blown out of proportion. The media is feeding it.

2019-02-18 21:42:08 UTC

Yes.

2019-02-18 21:42:12 UTC

What the media calls racial tension is fake, yes, because it calls into play many things that don't truly exist, like "microagressions". But the vast majority of people don't care about that.

2019-02-18 21:42:35 UTC

The media is *trying* to blow the existing, real, racial tension out of proportion, yes

2019-02-18 21:42:46 UTC

But that doesn't mean that racial tension doesn't exist on its own

2019-02-18 21:42:58 UTC

You >"The media is trying to blow the existing, real, racial tension out of proportion, yes"

2019-02-18 21:43:00 UTC

You can't blow something out of proportion if it doesn't exist to begin with.

2019-02-18 21:43:14 UTC

I correct it: "The media is trying to blow the SELFMADE, real, racial tension out of proportion, yes"

2019-02-18 21:43:31 UTC

๐Ÿคฆ

2019-02-18 21:43:37 UTC

That's about as creative as this

2019-02-18 21:43:41 UTC

<:nasalies:485141702403686403>

2019-02-18 21:43:47 UTC

Be more original ๐Ÿ˜‚

2019-02-18 21:43:49 UTC

Not ridiculous if you look at what I have been saying.

2019-02-18 21:44:05 UTC

No, I'm saying, don't modify what I said, just say it on your own

2019-02-18 21:44:12 UTC

I mean, look at Morgan Freeman, he even said this: "Wanna know how to get rid of racism? Stop talking about it". Sounds simple, but it holds some truth.

2019-02-18 21:44:32 UTC

(No, I'm saying, don't modify what I said, just say it on your own" It's ok, I got you).

2019-02-18 21:45:02 UTC

If I started spewing in the media that all colored people are going to bomb the hell out of the airport, don't you think the people will start looking at black people with suspisciousness? yea.

2019-02-18 21:45:22 UTC

But that doesn't mean they ARE like that truthfully.

2019-02-18 21:45:35 UTC

But the fear will still be there

2019-02-18 21:45:41 UTC

And that's the tension I refer to...

2019-02-18 21:45:47 UTC

Hold up

2019-02-18 21:45:58 UTC

I just realized we've been talking about two different things

2019-02-18 21:46:01 UTC

Tell me "Check" when it's my turn, so I don't cut you off.

2019-02-18 21:46:09 UTC

The media is feeding fear into the population with their fake propaganda.

2019-02-18 21:46:28 UTC

Check

2019-02-18 21:46:39 UTC

Itโ€™s all by design

2019-02-18 21:46:51 UTC

Check

2019-02-18 21:47:07 UTC

Alright, here's one great example of what I've been trying to say

2019-02-18 21:47:15 UTC

You don't have to look at it right now. But when you have time.

2019-02-18 21:47:16 UTC

CHeck

2019-02-18 21:48:21 UTC

They spun the bullshit of Jussie Smollet HARD as F***, to make it be a RACIALLY motivated attack. Blaming the suspects to be TWO white persons. You will see the Tweets of too many famous people talking about "racism" over and over again, especially from whites to black.

SADLY, for them, the two dudes....were black, lol.

2019-02-18 21:48:42 UTC

Alright, I get what you're trying to say, and I realized that we've been having two different conversations

2019-02-18 21:48:55 UTC

That's a bruh moment on my part

2019-02-18 21:48:59 UTC

๐Ÿ˜‚

2019-02-18 21:49:05 UTC

Theyโ€™re also trying to call it a homophobic attack

2019-02-18 21:49:16 UTC

Yes, Gwench.

2019-02-18 21:50:06 UTC

And the SAD part of it is that they did NOT bother to investigate before MAKING DAMAGE to the people's mind. You think they are going to tweet and say on the news media something like "We were wrong, the attackers were black. This was not a racist or homophobic based attack".

You think they're gonna say that? NO. They already made the damage, there's no going back.

2019-02-18 21:50:20 UTC

When you refer to racial tension, you're referring to the tension that is trying to be artificially created (along the lines of "only white people can be racist")

2019-02-18 21:51:39 UTC

When I refer to it, I'm talking about the underlying stuff that enables the media to create a narrative

2019-02-18 21:51:45 UTC

Does that help clear things up?

2019-02-18 21:52:11 UTC

The media can't blow something out of proportion if it doesn't exist.

2019-02-18 21:52:29 UTC

It exists, but not the way we're told it does

2019-02-18 21:52:35 UTC

I get what youโ€™re saying gohan, but why the bleach?

2019-02-18 21:53:08 UTC

I get your point.

2019-02-18 21:53:21 UTC

But here's the thing: it exist MAINLY because the media pushed it.

2019-02-18 21:53:30 UTC

But something had to exist before, no?

2019-02-18 21:53:31 UTC

Started* it would be more accurate.

2019-02-18 21:54:11 UTC

If nothing exists, there's nothing to create a narrative out of

2019-02-18 21:54:28 UTC

Nothing existed. They created the narrative > they blew the narrative.

2019-02-18 21:54:34 UTC

What I am against is that it comes natural.
