Whether I agree or disagree, lets again take this as truth for the sake of argument.
This still proves my point, that by being toxic and attacking people who are on your side you will ultimately drive them to the other side and turn their otherwise unexpressed bigotry into far more expressed and harmful bigotry.
No matter how you slice it the sort of toxic behavior I called out serves to add support to the other side and take away your own supporters... At best you may drive them to a middle to a third party (which in your headis almost as bad)
> Have you even met racism?
Did you really just ask a Native American, a race that has almost been completely eliminated due to genocide, if I ever met racism.... seriously!?
> I was meaning that the ruling of the school that suspended the child regardless of the Crown Act was wrong.
Completely agree fromt he get go, the rule itself was wrong, and the choice of the school to enforce it also wrong. This would be true regardless of any racial component but doubly so if there was some racial bias at play as well (which is likely).
> You want to understand "why it disproportionately affects Blacks, when it should not." It's because there are NO good reasons outside of racism and having rules that can and will be arbitrarilarly & disproportionately enforced by racists at will. It's because of racism
That is perfectly fair, and I said exactly this early on and agree with you. The problem is by this logic **all** rules of any kind and of any nature are wrong because racists will ultimately be the ones applying it... My point is that if the rule itself isnt racist (and im not even convinced of that mind you) then fine, lets just admit that and focus on the problem of racists applying rules, which would seem to be the real problem... however if it is racist in **addition** to racists also applying it then we (and specifically me) should better understand why it is racist so we can better see and identify other rules that are racist.
This is supposed to be about learning and attacking people and calling them sealions when someone makes a sincere attempt to understand another POV and consider it as one they may want to adopt... that hurts everyone on the side of good here, everyone.
GTFO with that toxic shit.. I am sincerely here trying to better understand the perspective in the hopes I can adopt it. The disgusting toxic shit you two are trying to do to make that seem like some racist undertone is disgusting. Especially when, as someone who is not white myself, is part of a victim of that same discrimination, so clearly I would care.
Shame on you for creating a toxic environment where minorities cant simply discuss topics in the hope to understand a perspective without being villanized...
And for the record no one made any "relentless request" of you or anyone.. what a disgusting way to frame an earnest question asked in the open for anyone who **Wants** to answer it.
You **ARE** the problem, not the solution, at this point you are almost indistinguishable from the right trolling people with good intent.
Remember everyone, we have gotten to the point where sincerely wanted to understand a liberals opinion and politely and respectfully ask for their views in an attempt to consider them.... we call that sealioning now... yup.. and people wonder why so many people are all of a sudden supporting fring right wing shit... people like this have pushed all the rational people away from the left towards the middle and in some cases even all the way onto the right.
So apparently Musk is going to require **all** users pay to use twitter, no more free accounts of any kind.
Assuming this eliminates ads, might be the first move Elon made with Twitter that will make my personal experience better... not so sure about all the people who cant afford it though....
