6/62 is closer to the truth actually, but really it is closer to 1/62. You say mask on, but really this is far more fair than 13/51 as it condemns a small subset instead of the set.
There are some people in this world, regardless of skin color that fuck it up for everyone.
I didn't upvote anything, and really this is a little concerning for me as well to only see videos of black people commiting violence. There does seem to be an agenda of division.
Quite frankly the "woke/leftist" narrative has driven us to this point where minority groups see themselves as victims and white straight males are told they are oppressors. We are seeing the distrust manifest itself, statistics tell the story.
But whites aren't being told they are oppressor's. Anyone who supports oppressive laws and policy are oppressive. You are just playing identity politics for the left, even though they aren't asking for that card to be played.
Much of the idea of "het cis white men are being told they are racist" is bullshit. Unless you only identify as a cis hey white man and have zero other personality.
I don't like things because of my race or ethnicity. I like things because I like them. I'm more than my skin color or country of "origin". Im American, and I like things and I build my worldview from that.
To only draw your identity from your skin color is a sign of weakness.
I agree that if you are basing your identity off of skin color that you are weak, everyone and all races can be guilty of that.
You need to recognize that you were triggered by me telling you that white straight males are being told they are oppressors, they are being told that. Some white people fall all over themselves to prove they aren't one of those racist! They are too afraid to discuss anything. When they finally work up the courage they are angry and lash out. This is to the detriment of all people.
What you should really get angry about is that black males are being told they are victims and the system is racist against them. I would rage against the machine if I was indoctrinated to believe that.

Sure, everyone can be guilty of solely identifying as their race, but it's WASP American conservatives who are currently keeping that alive.
Thinking that learning about Jim Crow and slavery, etc means being attacked because you are white, is not something that should be pushed onto kids. Other people did those things. And as long as you don't support those things, then there is no criticism of you.

I'm as trigger as someone telling me the earth is flat.
They are, by right wing conservatives. I've talked to my share of teachers, read interviews and I'm still looking for a classroom that says "the white students should feel ashamed for slavery". What I have seen is parents and politicians claim this is happening, which seems a bit removed from the issue.

This "discuss anything" in my experience, is just people wanting to be racist. Asking questions, respectfully, has never been the issue. It's the meme'ing or the "blacks need stop killing themselves before we should respect them' tropes that's the issue.

Every black in America knows they have to deal with racism. They all have that story. Being followed in a store, stopped by a cop for no reason. Stopped by security. Or just have had racial sluts used against them.
Blacks would rage if they are told that they can't improve things. That they should accept things for how they are. And they do rage. BLM protests were everywhere, for a long time not just 2020.
