Yes.

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.

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

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

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

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

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

🤦

That's about as creative as this

<:nasalies:485141702403686403>

Be more original 😂

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

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

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.

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

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.

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

But the fear will still be there

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

Hold up

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

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

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

Check

It’s all by design

Check

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

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9nH2JUyQjiA

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

CHeck

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.

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

That's a bruh moment on my part

😂

They’re also trying to call it a homophobic attack

Yes, Gwench.

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.

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")

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

Does that help clear things up?

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

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

I get what you’re saying gohan, but why the bleach?

I get your point.

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

But something had to exist before, no?

Started* it would be more accurate.

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

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

What I am against is that it comes natural.

Someone HAS to teach it.

Except that in this instance, smollett claims bleach was poured on him. It was intentional to make the attack seem racially motivated...from the get-go.

Yeah

Maybe I'm missing something, but to me, bleach doesn't scream racial motivation

It's to "whiten" him up.

Ohhh

And he said that he "kept the noose around his neck when the police came". A total movie player.

I always thought about it from a pain perspective

Noose, Bleach...screams mainstream reacism.

racism*

When you check the video, go to the part where he shows the tweets.

Will do

Can I offer a slight bit of proof as to why underlying racial tension exists?

Do you know what the most racist country in the world is?

(Hint: it isn't the US)

It's India

In India, there exist communities of people who have never seen a person who isn't brown.

When a white person goes to those communities, do you know how they react? The children hide behind their parents, and the parents move towards their living spaces.

Whereas when I visited those communities, there was no such reaction

That’s not racial tension. That’s a natural feat of something unknown

It's a basal sense of "us vs. them," a herd mentality, if you will

A fear of something that looks exactly as you do, minus skin color?

That's exactly what racial tension is

Because there's no other differentiating factor between the two

That's what I've been trying to say, but sadly, my English skills were being used up by this paper I'm working on

That’s natural. But not really racial tension.

If we were being honest, that's what racial tension actually is. And that's exactly what the media has managed to spin up into such a big thing.

It took a base instinct, a natural wariness, and turned it into a big thing

Racism definition

prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior.

That's racism, not racial tension. While similar, the two aren't the same

One is active, one is passive

Is it still your premise that people are motivated because they think they can get away with it? Or is it that they are guilty of feeding fake propaganda themselves?

Both.

People think they can get away with stuff because of society's views on things. Society's views are informed by the media.

(I thought that the second part was implied, but apparently not)

cheese

Can you define "Racial Tension" how you understand it, gohan?

@gohan Don’t you get it? It’s these false attacks that are feeding this racial tension you speak of. Are you ok with this?

Feelings of wariness or fear caused by the sole fact that one's race is different from another's, caused by an underlying, basal fear of the unknown.

Also, it doesn't matter if I'm okay with it or not. It'll continue.

@Larken When you have time please select some interest roles as well. Thank you.

@Larken Congratulations on getting professor role. 😃

Thanks Gwench

There

😁

Thank you

I hate people like that

When you say "fear caused by the fact that one's race is different from another, caused by the underlying fear of the unknown".

I know there's such thing of the fear of the unknown. For example, when some tribes receive guests of all colors, they get perplexed and scared, because of the "unknown" that you speak of. That is normal. When something is very strange to us, we usually respond with fear, because we cannot categorize them in any of our developed faculties (This is developed by Mircea Eliade, when he talks about the Scared and the Profane in his books).

But here's the thing, the "fear" that you speak of coming from the underlying fear of unknown, is not the same "fear" that would be put in the conception of "racial tension". Those are two DIFFERENT things: one comes because of nature and because of lack of contact with other civilizations; the other comes because of the INDOCTRINATION, caused by external factors that are not consequent with the type of fear you describe.

I believe the main problem we're having is that we're defining racial tension in two different ways.

Maybe if we stopped using that label, it would help

I think it was necessary from the get go to define our terms. Sometimes people might agree on the same thing, but they disagree because their definitions are not put.

In summary, what I am trying to say is that, yes, we as humans NATURALLY fear the unknown.

And that natural fear, when applied to humans, is what I define as racial tension.

But there's no such thing as inherent fear for a race when you take into account the fact that the environment where this human is born is already constructed for a long time.

Alright, I think I get it

We're in agreement, but not understanding that we're in agreement

The best example I can give you right now is that of Tarzan (I know it's cartoonish, but it gives a great image).

Tarzan was human, but he was raised by monkeys. When humans of the SAME color as him came, he was "afraid" and curious.

It happens to some tribes: you can come on the same color of your skin. But what they're afraid of is the fact that YOU do not belong to that tribe.

Not necessarily the skin color.

I understand. We've been saying the same thing, I've just been saying it in an unfocused, hazy way

@The Gwench I just remembered that you wanted to hear my evidence as to why I'm a globie

You still want to hear it?

I will

I had more astrology stuff to talk about too.

With relation towards flat vs globe, not just random discussion of astrology.

@gohan Sure

Alright. So as I have been told often, you don't look to the sky to prove something about the ground. So I did some digging, and I came up with some solid proof.

Seismic waves.

Specifically, two properties of seismic waves. The first is the difference between surface waves (which travel along the surface of the Earth) and body waves (which travel within the Earth)

So what about them?

The second property is seismic shadow zones

I'll start with shadow zones.

Ok

The other one is a long-winded mathematical proof that I don't want to type out on a phone.

While I like math, I don’t like it that much.

Thank you

I'll see if I can bring it down, it's long in terms of length, not so much difficulty to understand

Anyways

Seismic shadow zones

Before I start, I want to make sure of one thing.

@The Gwench can we agree that seismic measurements are not faked?

No

I can’t say either way tbh

Then it's pointless to discuss

I mean, people's *lives* depend on accurate seismic measurements

Anyways, seismic waves from earthquakes can be felt at almost all parts of the Earth, at varying degrees of intensity based on distance from the epicenter

There are, however, areas at which seismic waves are not measurable. These are called "shadow zones"

Continue @gohan

On a globe, these are areas at which the refraction of seismic waves off of the core would prevent seismic waves from being measurable, since they'd be bounced away from them.

On a Flat Earth map, these areas are little more than patches on the ground, at which the waves mysteriously disappear, with no explanation as to why those specific areas lack seismic waves, while the areas around them do.

That's the basics of shadow zones

ok just because you say fancy stuff dosent mean your right @gohan

I think he's trying to simplify it as much as possible...

boi

This is about as simple as it gets

"seismic" isn't really that fancy, is it? That's in pokemon

Exactly😂

boi where

Seismic Toss

It's a move

omg

my brotha

@The Gwench you might want to read my stuff before it gets buried

Lol

and what waves

Seismic waves

what do they do?

Reading comprehension man. It's a first grade skill.

Work on it.

I understand now. Thank you.

No problem

I hope it makes a little bit of sense?

Look into it if you want, I might be missing something that would make it work on a flat Earth

I wouldn’t know where to begin looking

I'll share the other bit later

@gohan Watch this video. It covers exactly what we’ve been talking about.

https://youtu.be/bKslk1a3yzs

Hey everyone, **James Munder** just posted a video! Go check it out!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VsZQ7L_ad9s

You see, they jumped on this fake attack and called it a “modern day lynching” and blamed Trump for it. These people are sick!!! 😡

Rolling Stone printed madame president in early november of 2016.

they had to recall them...

The Green New Deal includes ``reparations`` for black people.

Whatever that means.

Bunch of malarkey

Just like the ppl that support it

https://youtu.be/twCFKVmLWVs

Yeah I did the same thing bullets over about 25 feet

There is some good videos on optical slant and angular resolution proving this perspective argument

Just gotta be willing to give up Balltard logic and think critically for about 10 min

It doesn't take a genius to understand it

@KuhRapMan Please use self-assign roles in <#539316279086022666> and <#484538051415113748> 😃

@The Gwench do you have to have a role?

It would be nice. You can advance to verified then

Then your links will embed.

It’s for your benefit

Idk Im fine where I am

Ok

I can't be bothered to do an interview lol

It’s not much of an interview.

Can I assume you are a flat earther?

Im no expert on flat earth so I dont have much to provide

Yea I think the earth is flat

Im new on the subject

That video you posted is already one proof. You only need 2 more. Lol

2 more proofs that is

Then you get verified FE

Well the water argument

Water seeks and define level

Does not magically curve or bend or cling to an exterior

That’s 2

And lastly From Italy Genova you can see Corsica Islands eventho you shouldn't be able to be if the earth was a sphere

I will take that as 3. 😃

Earth's curvature should be 7.92 inches for 1 mile and 24 inches for 2 miles

Congratulations.

And so on and so on so it doesnt make sense mathematically

Lol

Can I post screenshots?

I think so

Try it

Oh good

Nice

@The Gwench well thanks

Of course. Now go self-assign your role. The worst part is over. 😂

And you’re welcome. 😉

Lol

How do you that?

Sorry Im new to.discord too

You click on the reactions that match the title.

If you’re not understanding we can talk in lounge voice if you want. 😃

I’m willing to help you.

Lol thats the thing Im using phone right now and I would have to look for the earphone with mic

I lost it yesterday lol

I see. Meaning you must keep it quiet? I don’t need earphones on my phoneS

Well I blocked my microphone on phone

Or mike
