LOUIS CK on being White in America

[ClosedCaption]

huh? let me guess, if i said being white means i get great things solely for being white, you would praise me...instead of bashing me.

fucking hypocrite racist

So you chose the crying option again...Your choice

telling a story equals crying? no wonder your life is so fucked up. you don't even have a clue what happened after....

stick to bitching and moaning on the internet, it is all you're good at.

Dismissing all solutions while still complaining about it...yeah, that equals crying. You'd rather cry about your situation than change it. All I said was change it and you kept welling up with tears

That's ok, you have your victim thing going and besides getting knives shoved in your face it seems to be working for you.

Like I always like to say.... how's that attitude working for you? Is your issue resolved? I have no reason to call you a name. You didnt call me one.

My attitude is working for me pretty great. I'm not the one condemned to poverty. I have no issues to resolve (other than my dwarf porn fetish and fear of ice cubes). Let me ask you a question now. How is your attitude helping anybody? It doesn't help the black community and it doesn't hurt the white community. Your attitude doesn't accomplish anything good or bad. It just keeps the status quo stagnating at its usual corrosive rate.

if you are complaining then your attitude is not working great. You are now saying you have no issues to resolve. Thats just a cover up for your frustration. My attitude gives strength and purpose to those that wish to succeed in spite of the obstacles in their way. I know this because of people I have helped personally.

My attitude has lead me to help people personally as well. Also, I do believe you are complaining as well so I'm a little confused about your fist sentence. As well as... oh wait... this conversation has dissolved into some sort of passive aggressive pissing contest... never mind... time to move on unless you want to forgo the personal ad hominem and return to the topic at hand. I'm not going to hold my breath though.

If you are not racist think about what you say and do so you don't appear to be racist. Gives people excuses, creates hostility, and its rude. example. Don't assume all Black people.....well anything except like fried chicken.

Stop whining about AA. Even though it helps white woman more than any other demographic some Blacks have benefited from it and changed their family tree.

Get your historians to tell the truth about world and us history. The omissions and outright lies create hostility. The truth is out there. Teach it.

Okay, I won't do or say anything racist. I don't anyway, so that's easy. Of course, that won't stop people from claiming it to divert from whatever point I'm making, but there's nothing I can do about that. Done.

Okay, I won't complain about AA. I don't believe in treating people differently just because of something as trivial as skin pigmentation, but if you do, I'll keep it to myself. Done.

Get my historians to write differently? Well, I wouldn't be able to do that.

That would have been it, huh? Oh well, I wasn't expecting miracles.

Now that we've gotten this far, what can black folks do on their own to improve their lives?

Anything?

.

All the Black people having issues can learn whats needed to succeed. They also need to hold themselves accountable. Educating themselves on their true history, learning leadership/interpersonal skills, and learning the concepts of wealth.

Accountability, education, leadership, interpersonal sills... yes, all the things our welfare state doesn't do.

 

[JohnL.Burke]

A disproportionate amount??? According to whom? Stats compiled by whites with a clear agenda of demonizing blacks???? And racially profiling them, based on the very stereotype you're employing???? You drank the kool-aid, and are now a vendor.

I'm assuming these are the same evil whites who lied about the moon landing? Ignoring the conspiracy theory for a second. I just want to say that I am not demonizing blacks. I am demonizing old while liberals who created a system to nurture dependence, illiteracy and violence.

Pardon me....but there is no dependence to speak of...all of the black people that I know, work. And "hard". Illiteracy? Where? Oh....the inner city schools that the Republicans in Congress keep defunding. And they claim that education is so important. BS. Violence? Oh, you mean Sandy Hook, Aurora, and Columbine. I agree. Ban all guns. Repeal the 2nd amendment. FYI. The largest group on welfare are poor whites.

Hmm... some interesting points here... most of them wrong of course. First off, the teacher's union (i.e. DNC) owns the inner city schools. It's quite a stretch to blame the republicans for what the democratic party owns. Also, the republicans do not try to defund inner city schools. The republicans, however, DO promote school vouchers and charter schools as an attempt to give poor children a better education despite the left's dependence on a corrupt and ineffective school system. The funding of these schools is up to the city and state. Washington D.C. spends the most money on schools and has the worst schools in the country.
In terms of violence, yes, Sandy Hook, Aurora and columbine were violent incidences committed by people who obtained guns illegally. To pretend that these incidences somehow override the violence in our inner cities is silly. Our inner cities death toll would be greatly improved if the amount of children murdered was "only" the same amount of children killed in Sandy Hook, Aurora and Columbine combined.
Yes, the largest group on welfare are poor white people. There are more white people then black people. This means one must focus on proportionality or else numbers mean nothing. Proportionately, more black people are on welfare than white people.

Well you were complaining about me saying people should not criticize the recipients of assistance without asking permission and taking time to learn. Thats funny you think this has dissolved into a passive aggressive pissing contest. I dont look at it like that. Would you rather I be hostile and call you names? I can do that too if it makes it more interesting for you.

Thats correct. I might add our present school system is sorely lacking in those areas as well.

 

[Unkotare]

It was I. I told all of the white boys to step off criticizing Blacks unless they had permission from Blacks to do so.

That's because you're as stupid as tank.

I know you have a problem with Blacks not honoring white people as wise sages .

There's another lie from a well-established liar.

 

[Unkotare]

stupid as Tank? Thats [sic] impossible.

You've managed to achieve it.

and the dog in your avatar is smarter than you are.

He is pretty smart. I can't say the same about you, Giovanni.

 

[Unkotare]

If we can get to the point where we no longer put people in boxes this world would be a better place.

You fucking hypocrite.

You are one amusing little guy!!

 

[squeeze berry]

It's hard being white in America these days.

It's hard being black in America these days too.

 

[squeeze berry]

They usually prey on the weak

"they"?

nice to know you support racist gang bangers...not really surprised though

btw, my testimony sent him to juvi for four years...suck on that asswipe

Bullies prey on the weak, just stop being weak

you are always whining about white people bullying black people.

That says a lot about you.

Ah well, I suppose there is no reason to point out that I was complaining about no such thing but it seems that racial walls have been built and there is no reason to add any input on the matter since I'm not the right color. So be it. As I said before, I'm not the one who is suffering, even though I would like to help the chronically poor. If you and I are any indication of a larger attempt to help the poor... then the poor are screwed beyond recognition. That is really a shame.

 

[Unkotare]

I agree with you, my criticism is falling on deaf ears. Why did I even bother? LOL! Oh well, since I'm not the one condemned to government supervised multigenerational poverty while having my kids forced into a failed and violent school system then I guess I won't lose too much sleep over it. It's really a shame though, I didn't know I had to ask for permission to criticize slavery.

No you just have to ask for permission to criticize the slaves. Why you want to do that instead of helping is beyond me.

Yea I know, screaming "RACISM" as a way to deflect from a broken government system is nothing new. In fact, I already pointed this out in a previous post. I appreciate that you proved my assertion correct with a perfect example of what I was talking about on post #146. I can see now this conversation is going to deteriorate into the usual pointless nonsense and name calling. Too bad.

It doesn't take long to figure out this pony's one trick.

 

[squeeze berry]

Its not that white people are our problem. Its that some white people are a problem.

which ones.
Name names and how they keep you down

Like you squeeze berry. If you attempt to dictate to me by telling me to name names that may actually get me angry. If a person is angry they usually cant focus on productive actions. This in turns creates resentment and more anger. Thus you thinking you have the right to demand a name to fit what you think is an acceptable reason for "whites keeping me down" causes the very situation you say you do not want to exist. Me thinking that some white people are a problem.

I really don't give a fuck if you are angry or not and I could care less if you blame white people for your failures as a person or as a race. Seems like you have anger issues.

Seek help from a doctor that will not indulge your persecution complex

Its called consistency of message. Thats not a trick. I'm not trying to prove anything or get over on anyone.

In one thread I'm told that I can't speak about blacks because I'm not black.

In another thread I'm told I should listen to a white guy when he talks about blacks.

PC = a neverending source of goofy.

.

It turns out that you were told no such thing. The poster in question clearly does not think you should not talk about "blacks".

Some people are just naturally great at omitting the entire statement and selectively remembering the things that hurt their feelings.

you stated that white people should ask permission before criticizing black people.

You give yourself too much credit by saying our feelings were hurt. We were amused at your stupidity.
