Alright, I can't believe I'm coming out of retirement for This Sh*t but some people are too idiotic to be left unchecked.

- America has NEVER been "great" for black people... Or gay people... Or women. And it still isn't. I know this because I TALK TO A LOT OF F*CKING PEOPLE and they make their feelings abundantly clear on the subject. They resent being told that their "laziness" or "bad attitude" is why they struggle so much harder, across the board, then straight white men do.

Let me be clear: Most of the people I talk to don't automatically think that just because America has never been "great" for those people, that by default it is "horrible" for those people either. Few of them think that. They might be inclined to say that America can, and has been, "Good, but not Great" for their group. But the facts are, America has only EVER been "great" for one group of people, and the ramp is a lot more steep for everyone else. Thus, "Make America Great Again" IS a loaded statement by definition. To say otherwise is intellectually dishonest.

- If you honestly think that "real" bigots only wear Klan robes, and otherwise they're not hateful people... Well, that's nuts. These are the nonsense statements that constantly make me suspect that very few of you spend much time outside among the rabble.

Your action figure customs are great. Your political opinions are terrible. I really hope to never have to come back here but when people show me sh*t like this it's like Jesus Christ. I can only HOPE these are sh*tposts and that people don't actually think these things, but sadly I know better.

As a non-white person, I tell you that living in America has always been great to me, not good, GREAT. And no paid Hollywood shills are gonna change my mind or tell me what to think, what to wear, how to act. I’ve been to other countries, so yes I do go outside and know how the world works.

Was racism a problem in the past? Yes. And that’s history. We’ve come a long way. Racism was abolished in the Civil Rights movement. It became too great in America, now our corrupt politicians and race hustlers wanna take a step back and make reverse racism acceptable, encourage violent protests and rioting, while the elite globalists are busy enriching themselves. Why the left gotta be such doomers?

Now, a simple question: has the government (and the media, their propaganda wing)-forced obsession on race and race relations and perceived racial inequalities made things better or much worse, these past 3-4 years? Objectively?

WORSE.

I’m tired of everyone pretending that things are hunky dory.

This is anecdotal though. Your point is based on who you have personally encountered.

"I know black people have it bad because I talked to a lot of black people and they told me so." That's just not a strong argument. We all have our own personal experiences but they don't just equate to objective truth.
