Somebody can explain this DEI thing to me.

[The Sage of Main Street]

Don't be a hateful racist, homophobic, bigoted asshole.

Hope I cleared that up for you.

I'd Rather Be a Big Ot Than a Little Liberal Snot

But, you ended up being a small little orange shrub.

You don't know what a blanket statement is, Cowboy. I was talking about individuals. "Blacks" can't be qualified for jobs, but a black man or woman can be. A blanket statement would be like all whites are racist like you keep saying, vermin

Again.
You should never be taken seriously.

 

[Delldude]

Jim Crow really didn't go anywhere.

Yes it did....personal prejudices didn't, much as you do.

 

[Hutch Starskey]

WTF? More white right wing amnesia.

This is what racism does to people.
It keeps them on the defensive at all times as they’ve chosen to act as if they aren’t racist but everything they do and say betrays them.

You ever notice that most racists will never openly admit they are? It’s almost as if they know it’s wrong and society would come down on them if they did. Rightly so.

 

[Hutch Starskey]

I have hired a lot of people, not once have I hired any race. Show me a link of who has, lying vermin

So your experience is definitive?

I can’t imagine you were much of a leader being so shortsighted.

 

[IM2]

DEI is racist and supported by racist.

Do you believe black people can't be racist because of their race?

What I believe is that blacks in America did not create a system providing blacks preference only because of color and have tried maintaning that system for going on 248 years.

But whites have.

 

[IM2]

No, I'm not stupid, you wanted me to guess. Homey don't play that. You asked me a question, I said it was too vague, be more specific

You are doing exactly what I said.

 

[IM2]

Nothing but propaganda and talking points. Fun fact, I was never a slave owner and you were never a slave. I bet if you look back on your life honestly you will admit that you may have been screwed at times , but the only one who ever stopped you was you

Bullshit. Don't try that "you never were a slave" bullshit after trying to blame todays democratic party for slavery. If you took at look at America honestly you know white racism is a problem and there is no doubt in my mind that you're a part of the problem.

Understand this, your ass didn't fight in the Revolutionary War, but you recognize that war as a reason for our existence today. Your ass didn't fiight in the Civil War but whites like you want us to thank you because your ancestors fought in that war. Whites like you talk out of both sides of your mouth. It's time you STFU and moved on, because I'm above your paygrade.

Equity just means you help those who need it the most.

Who decides and defines need?

Not everyone gets the same.

Says who? Who decides who gets what?

 

[dblack]

Says who? Who decides who gets what?

Whoever is running the show at the time. This kind of thing makes it that much more important to have your guy at the helm. You'll get fucked otherwise. That's the entire problem with these kinds of schemes. Everyone imagines that it will only ever be their guy making the call. But the worm turns, and soon the government that is screwing others on your behalf, will be screwing you for their benefit. Better to just not let government get in the business of deciding who gets what. That's what we have a market for.

 

[Natural Citizen]

So, then government.

Can be anyone from your local school system to the Federal Government

[dblack]

So, then government.

Of course. Government is always the answer! Even if there's no question.

 

[Natural Citizen]

Government defining one's need and then deciding what and how much to give this theoretical elect sounds like communism to me. Patently.

 

[rightwinger]

So, then government.

Could also be Corporations

 

[dblack]

Sounds like communism to me. Patently.

Oh, now they're gonna start the whole "you don't really know what communism is" schtick. Did you have to go there?

 

[Natural Citizen]

Let me ask this.

If stealing and redistributing 100% of someones labor and the fruits thereof is considered slavery, then what percentage is not slavery.

 

[Natural Citizen]

Oh, now they're gonna start the whole "you don't really know what communism is" schtick. Did you have to go there?

I know what communism is. I don't require a tutorial.
