@Pioneer1 these relationships seem to fly in the face of your ideas about racism. It’s still not clear to me why you have such difficulty with Chilli, Chaka Khan and the millions of other people who enter into relationships with people you understand is being in different races.

Ignoring a hyperbole, white folks will get their houses taken if they fail to pay that note. They would’ve won most victimize in 2008. You mean before cell phones and TikTok, I don’t think so See, this is what I mean with flawed ideas and how they compound each other. Being born of racist is about as likely as being “born” a Methodist. I can guarantee you’ve never raised children in a multicultural environment. Dude, we live in a white racist culture that is the reason racism exists, but it’s on a decline. the country is not nearly as racist at once was. I said, continuing to decline into races and no longer exist. That’s the trajectory we are on. -

Right, and how did they become racist? The racist is one who is easily manipulated who cannot think on his own and is probably undereducated and has read very little outside his racist little world. He knows nothing about, does not understand, or simply rejects science. these are the people who waved the confederate flag and who storm the capital They are the toothless uninsured, who fight against the affordable healthcare act, fluoridated water, and vaccines. They wanna replace the Bible for science courses in schools. They want to ban books with black and gay characters in them. They want to teach you the world is 5000 years old, slaves, learned valuable skills and are better off here than in Africa… we need help. -

It is sad actually. 400k southern whites boys willingly have their lives to protect the interests of the wealthy. There is little difference today. they were manipulate then and they are manipulated now. -

That’s it? You mentioned that 20 million people might lose their health insurance even if a fraction of those people did how many of them are on life-saving’s meds and will die because they have not gotten the medication they need? -

Hummm I wonder why you say that could it be… I wonder… SOCIAL MEDIA! See to say that Kamala was the wrong candidate implies that Trump was the right one. Which in a normal world would make absolutely no sense but that is what happened. We already know that is what happened when Hillary lost to Trump the first time. At that time, I was still on social media and I had decided not to vote then. @aka Contrarian talk some sense to me and I voted for Hillary. In my book, that was the last straw and I stopped using social media. I have been manipulated and did not realize it. It’s not just me relating a personal anecdote. this has been documented! Trump is a creation of the media primarily social media. If it wasn’t for social media Trump absolutely would not be the president of the United States. Has anyone been harmed? -
Exactly and that is what will happen — unless we do something about it which seems unlikely

Sure, but ownership requires capital. -
I was about to surmise the same thing —a biological adaptation. Why would we find foreign accents sexy when it would seem more reasonable to find them odd or even repulsive? I always found foreign accents, including the southern ones attractive all things being equal if a sister had a southern accent I found them more appealing

ObamaCare aka Affordable Care Act Subsidies Expire Soon
Troy replied to ProfD's topic in Culture, Race & Economy
While my policy quintupled in price I was able to find another policy that was actually less than what I was previously paying. Now I’m not sure it’s gonna be any good but I can use the doctors I’ve been using so we’ll see. I live in a red state, Florida. I can’t see 20 million people losing benefits at least from from my experience at healthcare.org -

Yeah, I think that notion is over the top given GQ far too much credit. If it wasn’t for pioneer I wouldn’t even seen the cover I doubt many other black women have seen it — at least those who I’m not on social media. wait just how old are you? You better not be younger than me — cause I’m not an old man If people spend an inordinate time on social media and they are manipulated into not voting for Kamala and others are manipulated into voting for Trump. Has any harm been done? If people are tricked and manipulated into voting against their self interest by those using social media for this purpose is that time on social media not hurting you? -
Cynthia Erivo: Disgracing The Black Woman
Troy replied to Pioneer1's topic in Culture, Race & Economy
Yeah, but if you are asserting something that she says is untrue why don’t you just share the link or admit that you was telling stories or being hyperbolic? Assuming you don’t wanna say you were just lying. Agreed birds have to fly… eventually and drug addicts need to be in rehab. Much of this work is mechanized. I’m not sure how many jobs is gonna produce. It’s not like the old days when guys donned hardhats and went into to tunnels with pickaxes -

This is easy to resolve just do a search for the post and share it. If the website are search engine, can’t find it use Google’s search engine. — Yeah, I don’t know if guys asking girls out less or if this is just some social media hype, but I did notice a couple of things that I think hurt the culture: (1)I remember taking my daughter to dances. All the girls would dance with each other and the boys would be on the side. I thought this was really strange because this is the age where we began asking girls to dance one on one As I’ve gotten older, I noticed adults do the same thing. All the women are line dancing and the dude sitting at the table or bar watching… As far as taking women out in a world where women often make more than men, men feel cheated, having to pay for everything. I don’t begrudge any person in their 20s living at home, especially in places like New York; the “rent is too damn high.” Seriously, if parents have the space why force a kid to move out when they can be saving money. I would imagine for men it is really hard today; you graduate from college saddled with debt, back in your childhood bedroom, can’t afford to take a girl out to a nice restaurant… the culture has not changed so much that this can’t wreck havoc with your self-esteem. AI replacing all entry level professional jobs will only make things worse— unless we take action to avert the pending disaster. -

@Delano it is harder to make smart, older people laugh. -
Oh, I’ve seen more of this. But I don’t think the foreign Bourne women have an advantage over the homegrown sisters. Sometimes a woman from the Caribbean has a leg up as dudes sometimes find their accent, sexy. Stereotypes are based upon stereotypes. Just because you find one doesn’t mean they’re all like that. I bet if we went to China right now I’m better at math than the majority of Chinese people in China and I’m not that good at math, I have just studied a lot of it. While less than 20% of Chinese people have graduated from college. Would you look at me and say that Black people are better at math in Chinese people? So I guess it depends on what you call a fact. I just gave you a fact that conflicts with a stereotype. The actual fact is Black people in Chinese people on taking as a group very likely have negligible differences in mathematical aptitude all things being equal.

Yeah, I’ll buy that. -
No, not one. I do know some brothers who married European women, but they are either childless or made their own babies. Of course it’s perfectly fine to relate your personal experiences, but to extend those to the general population, it’s never a good idea. In the same way that you like stereotypes. Of course you’ll find people that will fit a stereotype, but they’re actually some white boys who run faster, are better Ballers, who dance better, and better endowed than a the average brother. Likewise, there are brothers who are stingier than Jewish people, who are better at math than Chinese people, and who like to read

How many guys are we talking about Pioneer, five, a dozen? The problem with your reasoning here is that this is just your personal experience, anecdotes. It’s not data. You’ve heard the story about the blind people feeling different parts of the elephant and coming away with a completely different understanding of what the animal is? Your personal experience is analogous to this so you touching the elephants tusk and thinking the whole elephant is smooth and hard, get it?
