CACs Created This Monster That is White Supremacy and Racism, So Why Don't Want to Deal with It?

[ghostdog56]

It's because they don't want to lose the top spot and blacks in America are like the lost and found box at your job, anybody can do whatever they want to with the items because nobody gives a fuck about them

they really want to believe they are where they are through hard work and intelligence lol. to admit that the system is designed for them to succeed at the expense of others pretty much discredits any and all white accomplishments.

Money is the issue. When profits can be made off of the labor and resources of others a person/government will do/say anything to justify and continue that status quo

Not only that...since most of em are regular working class folk like the rest of the minorities, they're under the impression that we're the same. Since they're not rich they don't "benefit"...which turns into them believing they have nothing to apologize for, and therefore nothing to work on because they don't actively participate in the system ("my family never owned slaves, I never oppressed anyone").

Racism was created to take care of the white people that couldnt afford to participate in slavery. The high class and low class are covered.

Today there are still rich and poor. Theres no slavery (except wage slavery) so folks are more focused on themselves. Most people don't care about things that don't effect them.

Premise is flawed. A lot of white ppl, especially young ppl, want systematic racism to be done away with and the cops to be held responsible for their actions. How is it accomplished though? It's deep though. I remember seeing a documentary piece once where they filmed a white guy and a black guy (with all the same credentials) and the black is regularly treated worse than the white guy. Even by other black people. That's when you know the problem is systematic.

How hard would you really try and fight/change a system that benefits you?

But they have white skin. That's the trump card.

If we answer that question then we will ask it yet again..

 

[gns]

Or is simply because white people are inherently racist and they enjoy the power and benefits that they derive from systematic racism and white supremacy?

Bingo.

Add to that

they really want to believe they are where they are through hard work and intelligence lol. to admit that the system is designed for them to succeed at the expense of others pretty much discredits any and all white accomplishments.

And this

How hard would you really try and fight/change a system that benefits you?

Theyre pretty much good in their own white world and dont have to gaf about anyone else in america. Two americans one black one white can grow up in the same city and have two completely different experiences.

These folks will not care lest they are affected/have to feel some shit.

Banking on their empathy is asinine.

but wait systematic racism goes way beyond law enforcement and the justice system.. Supremacy has touched every facet of our lives and continuously lives in it.. Its easy for them to see and appreciate what they see as injustice in regards to the law/order but everything else they couldnt even wrap their minds around just how deep white supremacy is... I think most people ... including people with the best intentions have a view.. of "Thats messed up" whats happening to black people but dont have a depth of true understanding or care beyond...the generic "thats messed up"

A honest discussion would reveal that they benefit from discrimination and that institutional racism has permeated our system (Criminal justice, banking, etc).
