You missed what I said. I said the phrase “I like my racism out in the open” is not anything new. I’ve heard people say that way before I ever visited the Coli.
Right, and you've heard black people use that as a reason why they would prefer to move down South? Because they prefer the open racism there?

Are ya'll living the dream now? :patrice:


Has Trump made America better by being more openly racist than previous presidents? How has open racism benefitted you personally?

I'm asking seriously.

Ya'll prefer the Dylan Roofs to shoot people to remove any doubt instead of him just thinking and fantasying about it?

Ya'll prefer cops to kill black men and women instead of wishing that they could but not acting on it?


I'm serious, what the fukk does that statement even mean? What is the benefit of open racism? What is the upside? Do you see racist shyt on TV and say "good ole open racism :banderas:"




I really dont get the phrase at all. All white people support racism, you shouldn't need them killing us to remind you of that fact :comeon:

Dylan Roof's are going to Dylan Roof.
Cop's gonna Cop...been copping well before Trump.

We aren't going to change racism by pretending it was fixed with civil rights. This is just an indicator how fragile the situation really is. Also, I don't think anyone would realize this term would apply to the Potus. I think they were talking their local shop owner so they know who not to spend their money with.

I'm talking bout the past couple administrations compared to this one. I'm not comparing the civil rights era to now, as I imagine most of us weren't alive during that time to form a comparison
Hell I was alive in the 80s and 90s

Cacs were firebombing Black churches in the 80s 90s
And cops were killing nikkas
Regan was killing nikkas and slanging dope to nikkas
Serial killers were kidnapping and Killing Black kids

This time now ain't shyt
Just the same Ole shyt
But the internet just acts like the present moment is the most extreme :mjlol:


Trump ain't shyt compared to Regan
Trump just run his mouf Regan got all his evil shyt accomplished :francis:

I gave you an example of how people talk about racism. I’ve had these conversations with my relatives all the time Over the last 2 1/2 decades.

I think the problem is deep down inside so many Black people doubt the dedication and white people have to racism and practicing racism white supremacy. We still think that is some good in them as some of them somehow someway I’m not racist.

Almost all white people are just as racist and homicidal as police killers and the killers of Ahmad Aubrey. And that’s what we don’t want to admit. Larry who invited you over who you eat lunch with every day is probably a racist white supremacists. So there is no running whether it’s open racism or hidden racism you’re surrounded by enemies.

Do I prefer people letting me know they don’t fukk with me rather than pretending they do when they don’t? Yes. Not to mention the effect it has had on black consciousness

I would counter that most policies that we are asking for/have in place are due to the fact that we know people don't fukk with us but we make it legally/financially painful for them to


Lets take Affirmative Action for example.
Would you rather all the top colleges just go back to "no blacks allowed"
Or rather "blacks need to be valedictorians to even get looked at"
Cuz then we would have alot less black judges, politicians, lawyers, etc who have the education and standing to change legislation.

Or what about home loans?
Should banks go back to "we dont lend to blacks"
Then how many black homeowners would we have?
Generational Wealth would be diminished.

Alot of open racism was fought against, but that doesn't mean those cacs ever stopped being racist. They were just not allowed to be open with it or risk losing their livelyhoods

Just yesterday I showed how Black people have made very little progress in fact in some ways regressed since 1968 the year that Dr. Martin Luther King died. So even if they pass laws white people are so dedicated to racism they will find new ways to practice IT!

Nice attempt at a Strawman but I didn't say shyt about voting or anything bigging up Biden

I'm asking you guys a question since you are the one's who are telling me that you prefer your racism out in the open. Okay, its out in the open, is this preferential to you or not?
I’ll do it for you. I’m voting Biden/Harris 2020. Anyone that has a problem with that can go jump off the nearest bridge.

I think this is an interesting take, but I have a few questions.

I dont think the civil rights leaders thought they were making Americans less racist by fighting for rights. I do believe however that they were fighting for a chance to survive in a racist world by making it harder for racist to be as openly racist as they were before.

The sentiment i'm getting from some of you on this board is that this was a mistake.


Instead of abolishing "White only" and "black only" areas.. maybe we keep them so black people never patronize those establishments
same for integration of schools
same for integration of government roles
same for public transportation, etc.
same for sports

Do you guys feel it would have been better if we kept those white only/black only signs and force people to be on code?

The only time Black people ever got on code was when it was extremely obvious that they didn't fukk with us.
Got on code and did what? It takes open racism to make us get on code? In the 60's we got on code and voted...If that's what you're saying I agree...besides that what should we get on code to do that we did before?

OP used the most extreme examples of that statement. I don’t think anyone wants cop killing blacks or a Dylan roof type situation to occur, but unfortunately klan members are going to klan member.

I think when people use that phrase it’s more a situation of where they’d rather their coworkers and neighbors wear I support trump shirts instead of smiling in our faces pretending they like us. At least that’s my opinion.
