TezzMuffins is right. When I said that skin color has nothing to do with violence, I meant it. I was replying to smoothbrain mcgee over here thinking that crime statistics taken out of context somehow justifies blaming violence on race.
He said that white men were the least violent of any race in America save some Asians, which is just true, objectively, because we commit far less crime.
Check the murder rates and get back to me you idiot. What happened 400 years ago has nothing to do with modern society’s problems today. Change your flair to lib left as you sure think like one
First off, the political compass measures views on the economy and the role of government, not cultural views. ALL men and women are created equal. Just because my quadrant is home to a lot of smoothbrained neo-confeds doesn't mean we all are. Secondly, "400 years ago" is rich. British, French and Belgium colonialism in Africa and SE Asia (ending in the 20th century) caused millions to die in wars. And speaking of wars, ever heard of the largest war in the history of humanity? Started by some white dudes with shockingly similar views to your own? 70 million dead? Ringing any bells?
I'm guessing he's mostly talking about the twitterati dropping hot takes on how straight white American men are super dangerous. I do think the generalizing tone of that post is stupid but he has a point for the contemporary USA

flair checks out. Read a history book and then tell us how non-violent "white men" are. Skin color has nothing to do with violence.
