It’s always some nikkas rushing into threads to downplay some shyt.

No matter the topic.

While I agree people are big on downplaying things on this forum, we live in the USA and racism is as American as Apple Pie and Football. It wasn’t ancient history when the police were getting slaps on the wrists for shooting black people.

As a matter of fact, the Civil Rights Act was only 10 years before my birth. Racism never went away. It was never worse or better. It’s been a constant for the past 400+ years.

Okay let me be REAL blunt.


I need you DNC shills to stop coming to our forums and telling all the black forum users to act like scared b1tches of the "orange man", okay. We don't give a fukk. Yall think reporting anybody with a backbone is going to stop the coli. Its not gonna work.

I disagree 100%. Racism is not static in the same way that views on Palestine/LGBT/vaccines are not static. There are ebbs and flows of public sentiment and the last few years have been going in the wrong direction. The idea that we are experiencing 1940s racism is not passing the smell test. Yes, there are still racist people and will always be racist people, but the overall racist vibes are worse now than a decade ago. People didn't have a platform to push racist views and indoctrinate the youth as easily as they do now.

How much are you willing to bet that I can prove my point with numbers?

The flip side is that it normalizes it and then u create a world where because it’s normal then it starts to get acted out in real life in my opinion
Breh, I ain’t worried. Most ain’t going to step and if they do it’s me or them. Heads or tails. Not many going to take them chances. The same way they can live in their world, they have to live in mine.

Most of social media nowadays is just a bunch of racists commenting on things. If a black person is in any video or picture I’m sure it’s gonna have a bunch of racist shyt in the comments. The silver lining on all of this is that I’m using social media way less now.

What do you mean by 'spill over'?
I think the racism on Twitter is very over the top and emboldens people to try that shyt more often and aggressively in public…let alone twitter’s effect on politics and policy changes shyt is wild and I think it’s going to rain even harder on our heads

I think it is already having an effect in real life but I am unsure if it will spill over into outright violence. One of the things about the modern far right is that they see themselves as being on a moral crusade so I think they are more likely you to provoke with words to get a reaction so they can say "look at how violent, chaotic" etc That is why they are also trying to make race science mainstream.

Also that whole thing of younger generations being more and more progressive is dead. Gen Z are the most racists, nihilistic generation for a minute. I think a big part of all of this is people see no hope for the future, don't have a clear identity and no sense of purpose.

The most dangerous thing is the other non whites who are willing to spew racists shyt towards Black people to get a pat on the back from the white supremacists. Even with all the ICE shyt Latinos are still on that:mjpls: Asians killing affirmative action not realizing it harms them too.
