I'm a long time supporter of TD. In the Plebbit days, I had the honorable "Salt" tag for sending literal tons of salt to the media. I'm not some fucking shill. I'm old-school pede. Mods can verify by my E-Mail address.

But I'm disgusted by what I'm seeing on TD.win, when it comes to talking about "Blacks" in general. You (not We) are crossing a line.

I work in the IT industry. I work with a lot of black folks, and I work with a lot of African American folks. They're different groups in my book. The Nigerians, legit Africans, and the Black Americans. Hands-down, every single person I work with is a straight-up, legit and full blooded, talented American. I'm proud to call every single one a "friend" regardless of political affiliation.

But I see SO many posts referring to "Blacks" as a singular group. I know what you MEAN. I get it. There's a group of black American-born individuals that have a victim mentality that is fed to them by the Democrats, and even those in their own sects, such as Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, etc. CONSTANTLY telling them that they're the victims with a RIGHT to some sort of reparation. That's only partially the problem. The true problem is victimhood. But that's a different argument for a different time.

Black Americans are no more responsible for Black Thugs than White Americans are responsible for the KKK. If you say "Blacks need to fix black culture," then they have EVERY right to say, "Whites need to fix redneck racism."

You get pissed when they say you have "White Privilege," right? How do you think Black folks feel when you lump them in with Ghetto Thugs? I have an idea, because we've had those discussions.

Are you white? Are you a redneck racist? No? Should you be RESPONSIBLE for those redneck racists? Presumably not. Then why would you argue that "blacks" as a whole are responsible for ghetto culture? They aren't a part of it. They don't agree with it, and they don't like it. But yet on TD we're seeing a lot of posts (perhaps shills, perhaps not) throwing the responsibility of that ghetto culture on "Blacks" as a whole. If that's fair, then it's equally fair for them to slap the "White Privilege / RedNeck / Racist" label on YOU.

Stop it. It's gross. It's ignorant, and it's fucking disgusting. Stop.

Statistics show that LEGITIMATE (eg; from Africa) African Americans do well in the U.S.

This is literally the ONLY statistic you need to prove that the concept of "Systemic Racism" is a farce. Clearly race is not a factor. Period. Equally, race plays NO ROLE in what an individual is "responsible" for.

My wife and I have talked about this until we're blue in the face. Where the real problem comes in is how do you discuss the "ghetto" culture. It's not a "black" thing, it's a "culture" thing. But this "culture" comes from racism. Not from the whites, but from the other "ghetto" individuals that continue to feed it (I point to Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and even Barak Obama, who claimed a thug that attempted to murder a Mexican American as a "kid that could've been my own son.")

White people have the same problems. The meth heads, the rednecks that thinks (somehow) that it's the "blacks" keeping them down, the white trash that can't seem to understand that a stable family (eg; a father and mother in a household) is what can help you succeed.

Nobody "defends" white trash culture, but the TRUE problem comes when "ghetto" culture IS defended by those "ghetto" crapstains on the left. (I point again to the politicans that are feeding the problem. THE POLITICIANS. Not the people.)

For the love of GOD, can we QUIT telling "Black People" that they have to "Fix THEIR culture"? If not, then hey, us white people, we need to "fix OUR culture".

Claiming that a black person, because of the color of their skin, is somehow RESPONSIBLE to "fix" the ghetto culture is in absolutely NO WAY different than telling a WHITE person that THEY (YOU!) are responsible for fixing meth-head redneck "culture".

Not their fucking problem, folks. Unless fixing every Nazi, KKK, redneck racist piece of shit is YOUR problem.

I don't know how to "label" the ghetto pieces of trash because there's no "label" for it. But that same crab-pot mentality that you see among those groups exists among us too. I saw it in my own family, where one of my cousins was doing well, and was dragged back down into the "crew" because she would've been "one of the MAN" if she didn't step down. She's facing death row now. (No, not exaggerating. She was convicted of premeditated murder in Oklahoma. Probably made myself super doxxable now, and as a result will delete this portion of the post in the near future.)

Shitty people do shitty things, and shitty people drag their friends in to the shit. This isn't a "Black vs. White" thing. And the sooner we stop playing the very race games that the "left" likes to use as "proof" of racism, the sooner we can get past the bullshit.

Blacks aren't responsible for other blacks. Period. Unless Whites are responsible for other whites. Quit... fucking... talking... about... it. Shitty people are responsible for STOPPING being shitty people. As a general rule, they won't. They're shitty. Shitty people will continue being shitty people until the shittiness is educated out of them. (WHOLE different problem.)

We can teach. We can bring back the importance of the nuclear family. We can push the idea that for ALL races, it's better if a mother and father are involved in a child's upbringing. PSA's, public programs, whatever it takes. This isn't a white vs. black thing, this is a shitty family vs. not shitty family thing. PUT THE FOCUS WHERE IT FUCKING BELONGS.

Sorry for the rant but I'm so fucking sick of seeing the whole "blacks need to fix their shit" posts. It's such utter, side-handed horseshit, and it makes me hate TD the more I see it. I get that TD is supposed to be an open platform where we can ACTUALLY state our opinion, but fuck you, this is mine. My opinion is that if you think it's a "black" problem, you're a piece of stupid shit.

No. Nobody is responsible for other people's shit. If "blacks" are responsible for "fixing" the ghetto fucks, then YOU are responsible for fixing white trash. If you aren't, neither are they.

Call "ghetto" trash what they are. Come up with a term. "Ghetto" clearly works for me, and it is by no means limited to a race. I know plenty of "Ghetto" whites. But stop... Fucking... Telling... Blacks... That they are responsible for "their" people. Unless you PERSONALLY are taking responsibility for shitty white people. Because I'm not. Fuck shitty white people. I have no claim to them. They're few and far between, as are the shitty ghetto fucks. And I sure as FUCK don't expect my friends to take ownership of those fuckers.

End fucking rant.
