I say very few because you know there's still 1 or 2 people like that

2020-10-31 07:48:55 UTC  

Yeah, the statistics and evidence for it is really fucking wacky.

2020-10-31 07:49:26 UTC  

I debate with lefties a lot and they have a decent amount of statistics to back up their arguments but I don't have the time or energy to read through them and really think about it.

2020-10-31 07:49:38 UTC  

Fair enough

2020-10-31 07:49:45 UTC  

I will say though, the justice system targeting blacks for being black sounds retarded.

2020-10-31 07:49:54 UTC  

I totally agree.

2020-10-31 07:50:35 UTC  

And in general, the justice system targeting men for being men is retarded.

2020-10-31 07:50:43 UTC  

I can guarantee if a white guy went out in public and got beaten and killed by a cop nobody would give a damn

2020-10-31 07:51:21 UTC  

^ This has been video recorded and it's true, no one cared. Exact same case as George Floyd except the victim wasn't as much of a criminal.

2020-10-31 07:52:09 UTC  

apparently the word "uppity" is racist

2020-10-31 07:52:12 UTC  

there's some evidence to suggest the justice system is slanted unfairly against men in the family courts but I doubt the people in it are that stupid

2020-10-31 07:52:13 UTC  

I just was told so

2020-10-31 07:52:24 UTC  

They stir up a bunch of controversy On news channels and social media you have to wonder if they're trying to start a second Civil War

2020-10-31 07:52:51 UTC  

Let's back up to the justice system being targeted toward the black poppulation.

2020-10-31 07:53:25 UTC  

From my research, it's the democrats who put laws into place to make that happen. Albeit, republicans still had to agree to vote in the policy.

2020-10-31 07:53:46 UTC  

In my mind, the disparities in the justice system have more to do with socio economic status than anything related to race.

2020-10-31 07:53:46 UTC  

And from my research, Trump is the ONLY president who has done anything about it.

2020-10-31 07:53:57 UTC  

A private lawyer is much better than a public one.

2020-10-31 07:54:08 UTC  

I agree @米饭和面条 I believe it's more to do with socio-economic status than race.

2020-10-31 07:54:31 UTC  

The only argument the left has against trump is Orange man badd

2020-10-31 07:54:43 UTC  

So apparently the word "uppity" was used by Southern racists to describe black slaves who got too self important. Therefore, it is bad to use in modern day language due to its hurtful past

2020-10-31 07:55:09 UTC  

wait that's a lie

2020-10-31 07:55:29 UTC  

lol

2020-10-31 07:55:31 UTC  

apparently it was used by slaves to describe other slaves

2020-10-31 07:55:33 UTC  

^ Speaking of words. Ever hear the terms zipperhead, gook, slant?

2020-10-31 07:55:39 UTC  

yes

2020-10-31 07:55:46 UTC  

Yellow

2020-10-31 07:55:46 UTC  

Idk who to believe anymore; I've been using this term to describe snobby white people my entire life

2020-10-31 07:55:57 UTC  

I spend more time than I would care to admit on wikipedia pages on racial slurs.

2020-10-31 07:56:10 UTC  

There's a bunch of other racist terms for other people that have far worse history than the N word

2020-10-31 07:56:42 UTC  

ok so it turns out that the word "uppity" was first used in songs written in "slave dialect"

2020-10-31 07:56:44 UTC  

Most of that would much rather not be said. 🎃

2020-10-31 07:57:04 UTC  

this is just what I needed to learn after writing an essay that I honestly feel is unintentionally condescending

2020-10-31 07:57:05 UTC  

isn't the n-word just the word for black in another language?

2020-10-31 07:57:11 UTC  

no

2020-10-31 07:57:13 UTC  

I believe words only have as much power as you give them. The asians (myself included by half) didn't care. And the power of the words died out. And now they're rarely heard. And no one cares. You call a korean a gook and they've never heard it. You call a japanese person a zipperhead (as offensive as that is) and they've never heard it. Because Asians never let the word have power over them. I believe even the n-word should be said until it has no power.

2020-10-31 07:57:18 UTC  

It's spelled different but it actually has a meaning to it

2020-10-31 07:57:26 UTC  

hard r and soft a aren't directly from those languages

2020-10-31 07:57:32 UTC  

the spanish word for black is

2020-10-31 07:58:03 UTC  

Just a quick reminder: If you say the n-word or something close to the n-word, you will be warned.

2020-10-31 07:58:26 UTC  

hard R and all, I believe the word should be said until everyone is freed from the power it's been given. A word shouldn't have that much command over people.
