A great point sorely missed by the media's presentation of events like this. Infantilization is a growing thing that needs to be stopped if anything's gonna get better.

epicalania (05/01/2015) [-] I think if you look at the facts, you can see two distinct groups of black people.
There are the ones who have mixed with the rest of society, accepting that anyone could be racist and that some people will always be racist, they understand that they aren't oppressed and understand that most people aren't being discriminatory (or when they are it isn't because they're black) I mean **** , if someone points a gun at me I'm damn well gonna discriminate against them and if they're black I don't give a ****
The other group are the people who refuse to accept this, they insist they're being discriminated against and seperate themselves from society, which causes them to be discriminated against. You get whites and blacks and mexicans in this group too, but they seem to be disproportionately black probably cos it's easier to deny reality when you have the catchall of racism to hide behind, white people find it harder to say the white cop is racist against them.

the thing that pisses me off is when ******* yell at a black guy speaking normal, gramatically correct english because he's talking "white"

takers (05/02/2015) [-] This has happened to me and i just stare at them like uwotm8.jpg. To be honest they're insulting themselves when they say that, as if only white people can speak proper english.
Also happens the other way around, when a white person likes rap and stuff like that they're "acting black".

streetshark (05/01/2015) [-] Anybody else think it's sad that nearly all of us assumed that this was some SJW brand hate speech because of what those extremist feminists have embodied progressivism as?
I don't want to get too preachy but it kinda pisses me off that these broads have made it harder for me to not be racist or sexist because I generally disregard all left-aligned information as SJW bullcrap.

kaiyuni (05/01/2015) [-] Here's a quick edit of a chart I found online explaining the divide of Christianity a bit better:
i.imgur.com/TOKHV4N.jpg
In case you can't read what the arrow points to (due to image quality) it reads "16th century Reformation divides Church of Rome".
You can also see those more radical churches are branched off from Protestants. Such as the "Westboro Baptist Church"; which are actually totally unrelated to the Catholic Church. Just as a singular example.

kaiyuni (05/01/2015) [-] KKK are against a LOT of things. I have this blood mix:
Irish/Italian/Danish/German (1/4th of each, it's pretty even). I'm also Catholic (Roman Catholic).
The KKK are based in the South and Protestant (Christian). It's well-known that Protestants HATE Catholics. During a very long period of time (really until only super recently), Catholics were the minority in the United States alongside blacks. The Irish came over in somewhat large numbers during the Potato Famine hearing that the US was a land of freedom, just to find that Protestants were in charge for anything big-business related. Thus they typically ended up working in coal mines and things like that. The Irish (and Catholics in general) were basically the "blacks of the north" post-civil war era.
The South is also typically democratic in it's views and how the Civil War went, and the North has Republican views about the Civil War. A great movie to watch to view the Southern perspective is "Birth of a Nation". It's a super, SUPER old movie, but it really lets you know what the South thought. The president at the time who was actually raised and from the South was even quoted saying "It's all so terribly true." after viewing the film from start to finish. Why is this important? Catholics are usually/typically Republicans.
There's a LOT more to it, but that's the short of it. The Jews also receive similar views/treatment from the KKK as well; just so it can't be said I didn't mention them.

wotterpatch (05/01/2015) [-] It's not. When did i say the black panthers were any worse/better?
I personally think being proud of your skin color is retarded, "I'm proud of something i have absolutely no control over whatsoever"

darthblam (05/01/2015) [-] But what about the likes of Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson.
You know, the ones that EXPECT/WANT the kind of "condescender" responses from ole whitey.
And that's also why most of this "condescender" stuff happens. Not because they think they're doing the right thing, but so the ******* NAACP doesn't destroy their lives by blasting them with "UR A RACIST!"
But of course it's still all whitey's fault, ain't it?
Go ahead and take my gif as me spewing **** . This is just how I feel.

effthree (05/02/2015) [-] The people who want the condescenders are prevalent in any group, whether it's the revs or extreme SJWs, some people prefer compensory elevation to equality, "You mistreated me/my people in the past, "we deserve to be and/or believe ourselves to be better than you."
That's ****** and all but it's nice to know this particular message is out there, hopefully being heard.

**rollingpicture rolled image**
I just judge people by their level of assholyness. If they are a good person, they're a level 1-3 of assholyness. If they are complete dicks that make me want to smash their head through a windshield, they're a level 10. Simple as that.

Gonna play devil's advocate...
This video is actually another example of the problem with the black community. Spouting the same "you change so stuff is better for us"...
I worked at a ghetto high school for a couple years. I visited black churches and community centers. I hear this in many of their speeches. How they can change the world around them, so that it is better for them. Very rarely do I hear speeches about internal change within the community...on the same radical level that they would wish to change those around them.
Look at affirmative action and hiring quotas. These are things essentially brought on by the collective whining of the black race.
Just like feminism, there was time when all of this was necessary. That is long past now. You can't make discrimination illegal. What kind of ****** up **** is that?
No self respecting person would want a law where someone has to pretend to like your, for fear of a lawsuit.
To be accepted, you have to come together as a community and throw off the handicaps. Person says ****** ? Don't whine. Boss is racist? Don't whine.
Take that **** as a challenge and better yourself. Look at asians. Why are they so respected everywhere? They don't whine and they work ******* hard. You put them down? They don't give a **** about your worthless opinion. Gook? Chink? Bring that **** bitch.
My friends mom was turned down for a job by a woman who was blatantly racist. Did she sue? **** no. I was chilling with my friend playing some smash bros, when she came in to talk to her son about what happened and how immigrants have to work hard to prove themselves.
She got hired by a smaller competitor and started jacking clients like a looter in Baltimore. That was back in middle school. Guess which company is still around 10 years later and has an Asian COO?
Asians don't expect affirmative action. They don't want quotas. They just work hard.

kurbeh (05/02/2015) [-] She is totally right, I agree 100%.
But when you treat black people like white people, you actually have to be mad at them for rioting and behaving like **** , and then they call you racist because you aren't allowed to judge blacks when you are a white person.

I'm not sure why, but I get the sudden urge to transfer to Prager University.
But seriously though, this was incredibly refreshing to hear. There are plenty of people that I know, both black and white, that are all about the idea of, "They just can't take it anymore. How can we blame them?" when talking about the Baltimore riots and I absolutely hate it.
What sucks even more is because I am white I am, quite literally, not allowed to even have an opinion on the topic. If I try to share my opinion, I get obscene amount of flack for expressing my white-privileged opinion.

truesmokewolf (05/02/2015) [-] Look up Prager's other videos. They take pretty good stances on everything and are pretty close to neutral. They're a little Christian-oriented so they lean right a good bit, but they're far from Fox News or anything like that.

mattdoggy (05/01/2015) [-] I'm glad that this video has been made. It states what many people are too afraid to state because when "forward thinking" and "progressive" individuals state how blacks should be treated with id gloves, any disagreement can just be called racist and therefore invalid. The fact that reasoning individuals can reach this conclusion and pass that knowledge on is refreshing and redeeming and makes me have hope for the future and society.
