Whenever people around me mention "systemic racism", I repeatedly ask WHERE IS IT? I won't stop until I get an answer. Where is it? What public policy or community action of discrimination can we go stop together RIGHT NOW? I never get an answer. Just babble about how we can't begin to understand the life of a poor black child who grew up with a single addict mother. I ask how that is any different than a poor white child with a single addict mother. Don't let them confuse and conflate bad parenting and bad choices with "systemic racism" that doesn't exist. I am only biased against people who are vulgar in inappropriate situations and who don't show courtesy and respect to others. The Left can fuck off with its bullshit gaslighting. That is all.

I just agree with them and go off about affirmative action, discriminatory hiring practices, etc. etc. and how whites and asians face systemic racism in this country.

"Systemic racism" is supposed to be the 'black people have shitty schools so they grow up to be shitty people who have shitty jobs and there's shitty tax income which makes shitty schools...'

Except this stupid circle is like this everywhere that is poor. Doesn't matter your race. A significant number of black people have just been taught that it's all the fault of the white man, and not because breaking this cycle starts by raising your fucking kids right, which means being a father.

The term "failing schools" is a complete misnomer. I know first hand, I taught in a "failing school" district fir 25 years. These schools lack for NOTHING. Sharp, motivated staff; free breakfast and lunch; plenty of books and supplies; laptops for every child; the latest model jumbotron in every classroom; free musical instruments; sports and after school programs; counselors and mentors . . . and on and on. What these schools lack is a preponderance of kids looking to strive and succeed. They need horses that want the drink. End of story.

Or a preponderance of parents who give a ding dong about their kids.

Don't you know?

In the mantra, there is racism of color and racism of class. So even the poorest white kids still have privilege. See how that works?

I actually sent me liberal brother this post and he replied with this video: https://www.instagram.com/tv/CA9LyigBdjT/?igshid=6q56nvvymsuh

they compare a rich white family with a poor black family but towards the end talk about segragation and jim crowe laws and unfair schooling policies, which were all democrat policies. Obviously voting Trump would fix that (school choice, opportunity zones, criminal justice reform, etc), but just curious what ur opinion about this "systematic" angle they are pushing towards the end of the video

Right on. If it’s systemic like these Jack asses suggest then literally no person with dark skin should EVER be able to make it in life. #choicesnotskincolor

Yeah, but Floyd left his home town of Houston because of trouble he had there - he broke into a home, assaulted a woman, robbed her - to start fresh. His fresh start included taking drugs and breaking laws.

I read a headline elsewhere that there's a funeral being held in Floyd's home town, not Houston. How many home towns did he have?

"We are all George Floyd. His hometown is every hometown."

I do PR for "The George Floyd Racism Across America Memorial Funeral Tour."

"It's wrong for the President to use a Bible like a prop," says the people carting a man's dead body around the country to be used as a prop.

BLM would never acknowledge a high-achieving man such as McNair. He proved that hard work, education, and persistence makes a person unstoppable even against racism. It contradicts their narrative.

He was trying to be white. Inner city blacks don’t like it when their kind get uppity.

I did an elementary school project on him. Still remember that. But I never see him brought up.

I wasn't at the Cape that day, but watched it on TV. I was fortunate enough to have witnessed some Saturn IB and V launches when I was younger, and was horrified at what I saw. The Shuttle was a terrible design and I'm surprised we only lost two w/crew. SpaceX seems to get it.

It was an overpriced flight of fancy that kept us from expanding into space. Every single stupid heat absorbing tile, while a marvel of science, had to be manually replaced just so it could land on a runway with all of the grace of a flying brick.

All I heard about growing up were silly experiments being carried out in microgravity, with the repeatedly failed promises of a moon/mars program. What they could never admit was killing the shuttle program was they only way they could fulfill it.

Reading Feynman's analysis of what caused the failure is great. It's only a few pages but it explains everything so well.

Shuttle design is a government program gone wrong. All flash, not sustainable.

This just in: BLM to protest space for its systemic racism against black astronauts.

Why not? They still memorialize George Jackson

Maybe if they cheered and rallied around a hero like this instead of career criminals, professional victims, and low lives, the community would be doing a lot better.

NASA actually had several talented engineers man, woman even before the Civll rights act. You can look it up. Oh, I mean "black" engineers.

Take this to an academic liberal and they'd scream in your face how he is an exception and that racism exists because every black person can't become an astronaut. The fact that this metric applies to all races and groups would not be relevant to their selective outrage.

Normalizing the worst behavior is the racism of low expectations.
