Affordable Housing is something the west coast and northeast can’t address well enough or fast enough.
There is affordable housing in the inland northeast,like New Hampshire,Vermont,western Mass and rural upstate New York.Where I live I get a two bedroom appt. very rooomy for only $625 a month,it's not real nice but it's affordable.Go to some place like Pittsfield,MA or Bellows Falls,VT and you can get real cheap housing.

What about white lives matter?


Since when have the lives of whites been systematically devalued for generations? Oh right, that's just a dishonest strawman that racists and the useful idiots who carry water for them trot out.

Where do the terms "Eurotrash" "Red Necks" "Hillbillies" and "Trailer Trash" come from? :scratch:

Quote:
Trailer trash is a derogatory North American English term for poor people living in a trailer or a mobile home.[1][2] It is particularly used to denigrate white people living in such circumstances[3] and can be considered to fall within the category of racial/ethnic slurs.[4] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trailer_trash


Quote:
Redneck is a derogatory term chiefly but not exclusively applied to white Americans perceived to be crass and unsophisticated, closely associated with rural whites of the Southern United States.[1][2] Its usage is similar in meaning to cracker (especially regarding Texas, Georgia, and Florida), hillbilly (especially regarding Appalachia and the Ozarks),[3] and white trash (but without the last term's suggestions of immorality).[4][5][6] In Britain the Cambridge Dictionary definition states: "a poor, white person without education, esp. one living in the countryside in the southern US, who is believed to have prejudiced ideas and beliefs. This word is usually considered offensive."[7] People from the white South sometimes jocularly call themselves "rednecks" as insider humor.[8] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redneck


Quote:
"Eurotrash" is a derogatory term for certain Europeans, particularly those perceived to be arrogant, affluent, and expatriates in the United States.[1]

Among the early printed uses of the term was in the early 1980s, when Taki Theodoracopulos, a wealthy Greek living in New York City, wrote a newspaper column entitled "Eurotrash" in The East Side Express.[2] The term was also used into the 1990s, with American band Cracker releasing a single called "Euro-Trash Girl". The song's narrator describes a dissolute life, drifting across Europe in pursuit of an "angel in black," the titular Euro-trash girl. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurotrash_(term)

Redneck came from white people who worked the fields and there necks were sun burned from bending over to pick produce in a farm field.

Trailer trash meant someone who lives in a slum like low income trailer park.

A Hillbillie means someone who has lived there whole lives in a mountain or rural setting far from any city and has a naivete to the world because of lack of exposure.

I think Eurotrash denotes overly flashy Europeans living in the US who are always going to disco tech's and taking MDMA or better known as ecstasy,also looking down on American's believing them to be uninformed and out of touch.

It is unrealistic to expect a landlord with a ton of tenants to be in favor of making rent affordable.

My landlord is affordable,you don't get much and there is a giant hole in my roof where plastic lining is the only thing keeping out rain and snow but the rent is very affordable,I get two bedroom for the price of one.

How does any of what you've posted address my question? I asked about lives being systematically devalued and you come back with the origins of some relatively tame racial slurs. You seem to have missed the point entirely.

I think most people think that there have been gross mistreatment of blacks and other minorities in America and from the news it seems to be still going on clearly.

The big question is:Does endless rioting,looting and violent protest do any good?Does white guilt and silly white people endlessly apologizing for being white with "white privilege" dribble drabble also do any good?

The answer seems obvious but what do I know. :mrgreen:

You mean the rioting police have been doing in response to peaceful protesters? No, that won't help anything but that's the point, it gives the racists an excuse to just remain dismissive and insist that somehow those perpetuating the problem aren't at fault.

Haven't heard of much peaceful protest,most cops are not violent,it's the bad 10% that ruins the proverbial batch.

The big question is: what circumstances lead people to riot and loot? Don't like the riots? Why not focus on the issues that cause them, instead of moralizing over the symptoms.

What about the 90% enabling or defending the "10%"? Are they "good" cops?

^^^
I have never said we should not address the issue at root of the riots.

I have said the riots are unhealthy and won't accomplish what non violent protest would.

I'm all in favor of America taking a serious look at race relations.

The vast majority of protests have been non-violent. Much of the violence has been initiated by police against non-violent protesters.

No, it really isn't "the bad 10%" when the rest of them actively help cover it up or sit by as a man is murdered by their colleague. It's intellectually dishonest to complain that it's unfair to judge police by the violent criminals in their midst after mischaracterizating the protests as violent based on fewer than 1%.

Racism and slavery has always existed, throughout times in all countries. Africans in South Africa discriminate against whites, to the point of killing them. Their were white slaves. Irish slaves ect

My ancestors didn't have slaves. In my family tree. Not every white person was responsible for slavery same with blacks having whites as slaves.
