My problems with Steve's posts is that everything seems to be labeled "systemic"
I do not deny that racism exists in America (and EVERYWHERE ELSE for that matter). There are white racists, and there are also black racists. There are White supremacists, and there are also Black supremacists. There are whites AND blacks that make use of their talents and work hard to get ahead. There are whites AND blacks which are comfortable using the "victim" excuse for their failure to get ahead. What I deny is that our system, our culture, our laws and judicial systems, and our OPPORTUNITIES are systemically prejudiced. I firmly believe that anyone with any brains, skills and a willingness to work can, and will succeed in the US. Sadly, this is not the case in much of the rest of the world, another reason I get incensed when I see left-wingers disparage our wonderful country. |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: I have been reading all of Steve’s posts. To ‘group’ everyone that is white into a white supremacy group is very wrong. To believe every black has started out at a disadvantage is very wrong. I have known many ‘vice vets a’ situations. I have known many blacks who have stated ‘ I am so tired of being told that I’m disadvantaged and started off in such a bad way!’… we need to stop ‘grouping people by color. This ‘going backwards’ in our country is so wrong. Kids are now calling each other names when they never even noticed their friends color since the CRT. I’m glad you’ve kept this conversation going with Steve’s I’ve had time to think and Steve is very wronf. Perhaps what he saw and put away in his memory from years ago in those scenarios- but in other scenarios at the same time that was not the case. |
