We're still talking about systemic racism.

@DarkSkyKEC almost back, hang on please @little hollow you know, the rich can be rich, and that is fine, but there is a point where they should give back, nobody need over 10 billion dollars. @LuckyPuffy and I do go to a private school, and yes I know I am a hypocrite but I will always try to make the world a better place.

Nah man. They should only give back if they so choose.

"All men are created equal" is true, but notice this. All men may be created equal, but they're not. Think of it as a running competition. We're all at the start line, all of us on an equal foot and with theoretical equal chances of winning. The race begins... and the best one wins. Again, equality of opportunity, not of outcome. And haha, all liberals are like that 😂 anyways, back to systemic racism.

The rich do give back in the form of providing jobs in order to make those dollars in the first place, in the form of paying taxes, in the form of charity, in the form of reinvestment.. etc.

If you want the rich to not exploit tax loopholes, that's different from the general idea we're talking about here.

Yep. People just see their salary and then see their own and say it's not fair, inadvertedly forgetting that they got that job from another rich person

Bill Gates was rich because he sold a popular product which has proven to be extremely successful.

Same with Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, Tim Cook (ok, he's a small exception, he somewhat inherited it from Steve Jobs, but Tim took it even further)

Anyways, the name of this channel is <#733606121704521729> sooooo

@LuckyPuffy but in a race the rules are apllied equally, which they are not in this country and the fourteenth demands they should be

How are laws not applied equally?

yeah, but we were talking about the impact of systemic racism on skewed death charts

let me ask a question, who here has biked

like just anywhere?

yeah

Yes....

Please bring up actual claims, evidence, and reasoning instead of constantly diverging.

ever run a emmpty red light, on a bike?

@DarkSkyKEC let me make my point

or jaywalked

Sure

Maybe....

what if a cop saw you what would happen?

Probably pull you over, tell you not to do it again, then let you on your way

ok, sounds fair

Or ticket you depending on what you did

Or how his or her day is going

Or how you treated them

If you're suggesting minorities are treated worse by cops, please bring up actual evidence of that happening.

my friends father, who is of african desent was arrested and held in jail for three days

For what?

for biking through and empty light, no pedestrian, on the bike lane

that's the event that kind of proved it to me

That's something you should bring up with your local officials and not assume it applies to the vast majority of the United States.

You can take legal action against someone for something like that

It's not part of police protocol to arrest someone for 3 days for a biking accident

And how do you know something like that hasn't happened to a white person before hmm?

that is an example, racsim is a problem, no matter the sevarity, and that is why i do not think that acrticle is far fecthed

As for disproportionate minority deaths, there are plenty of disparities between races that cause that as opposed to "racism."

not enough
