LOUIS CK on being White in America

[LoneLaugher]

.

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".

Excellent!

How may we "get out of the way"?

Precisely?

And you won't need anything else?

.

Heres what you can do. Stop being racist, stop assuming all blacks do one thing...and stop shitting on blacks. Typically when you shit on someone they don't tend to like it unless they have a fetish for that stuff

how about you stop assuming white people are you problem

U funny

 

[Asclepias]

how about you stop assuming white people are you problem

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.

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

I think the sentiment is great but when people feel responsible for giving assistance they then assume they have a right to question what you do with that assistance. I'd rather have no assistance and you just move out of the way than to have someone in my business criticizing.

Whats really funny is that some people act like the tax dollars for programs that benefit Black people only comes from whites. It comes from all people that pay taxes. Some of those people are even Black. Go figure.

Are you suggesting that all tax payers (including blacks) are wrong to be angry when their tax dollars go to people who abuse a program? I suspect a black man working hard who pays taxes gets just as angry as a white man who pays taxes to a broken government system. I couldn't disagree with you more. Tax payers (no matter their color) have every right in the world to question what you do with their assistance (money).

Not sure how you got that. No its fine to be angry when the money spent is not producing results. What I am saying is that the criticism should be leveled at the administrators and not the people receiving the assistance when it does not produce the desired result. Lets not make the mistake and call this voluntary assistance. Its forced. If you voluntarily give someone money then you really have no say in what they do with it.

Criticism should be leveled at the administrators AND those individuals who abuse the system. Of course, it doesn't really matter if one JUST attacks the administrators, the folks defending a corrupt and broken status quo will still scream 'RACISM' in an attempt to save their own government jobs. The politicians will still scream RACISM as a way to frighten their constituents into voting for them and the press will still scream "RACISM" as a way to spread a political agenda and sell their product. On the bright side, for the left that is, the democratic party will still throw pieces of cheese to the poor as a way to keep them submissive and docile while the republican party ignores the same people because they don't tend to vote republican anyway. In other words, nothing is going to change anytime soon.

What happens when you criticize someone and you are ignorant of their circumstances? Nothing positive is going to come from that situation. You are only going to exacerbate the problem right? Those that are abusing the system either are going to do it regardless or they dont understand what they are doing. Either way your criticism is going to fall on deaf ears so save your breath. If you truly want to help listen to the recipients views on the issue and ask permission to help in the solution.

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.

 

[Ernie S.]

You are right except for a couple of things.

Not all the black population does those things.

and

Others besides the black population does those things.

I didn't mean to suggest every black person does these things. A disproportionate amount of black people do these things however. I'm quite sure Lewis CK didn't mean to suggest that every black person is "cranky". I realize what Lewis CK and I said were generalizations. However, when talking about general groups of people, generalizations are needed.

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.

No, asshole! Stats compiled by the US Justice Department. You know, the one headed by the black AG who was appointed by the black President. Yes, THAT Justice department. If you do some reading and some math, you will find that in all areas but white collar crime, blacks are over represented 6:1.

So unless mathematics is prejudiced in favor of Caucasians, you are full of shit as usual.

My God man (and I use the term loosely) My granddaughter can make a more cogent argument than you. Go away!

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.

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.

[Mac1958]

My point exactly. Not only that get out of the way so we can succeed faster.

Excellent!

How may we "get out of the way"?

Precisely?

And you won't need anything else?

.

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?
