Where the left went wrong

Post Reply New Topic

Sounds like the racists who want to go back to segregation and call it "freedom of association". As for diversity, I'm not calling for anything. I'm pointing out a reality in the US today.

There's no reasoning with them, same with the 'alt-right'. If a fact hits them that doesn't fit their narrative, they implode or just lie/ignore it.

People are basically being told it is a crime to be white guy.

Calling for freedom of expression is like being a racist? Can any view you disagree with not be labelled with ism/ist at the end?

Nearly all liberals acknowledge that racism exists in Zimbabwe. We've been commenting on Mugabe's racism for quite some time now. That's why we were glad when he was overthrown.

We also acknowledge the racism exists in China. This is largely because China is a far-right dictatorship. Although China considers itself to be a socialist state, it, in practice, functions more like a far-right fascist state.

Don't put free speech on the same level as segregation.

Segregation can ruin lives. Speech is only bad if it involves overt threats of violence.

Racist speech can also ruin lives. It creates an atmosphere conductive to hate. Racists in the US do this all the time and claim its just "free speech" and "the truth about blacks" and etc.

... and then the left doesn't bother to refute anything that the racists say.

That's the real reason why racism has been spreading out of control. Racism can be scientifically refuted, but most people don't bother to refute it.

Nobody is being told being white is a crime. That's just what racists like David Duke and Richard Spencer tell their followers, so they can pretend diversity and tolerance is victimizing them.

Actually, there are some Tumblr users who insist that all white people are racist and insist that non-white people can't be racist. People like that ruin the left.

Then let me qualify that with: nobody of importance or of substance is saying that.

"Conservatives" and "anti-feminists" are disrespectful. Some people, like certain YouTubers or journalists, take advantage of them to earn money. Or, perhaps more accurately, they also breed them. Stay away from them, their words are chosen to calm anxieties inside you. Like let's say you're feeling rejected by society, like an outcast, then you feel like you're disrespected and so you don't wanna respect others on your own cost by having things such as economic programs for jobless. Or perhaps women reject you so you don't wanna respect their needs to feel beautiful and belonging to society, respected and stuff. Also they may sound very convincing, though be not fooled, it's often just that they ignore big parts of reality and only focus on small fragments of it that support their proposed view. They also try to sound smart. They may try to say certain facts that are true (but noone else really objected to that they're true) and then they say other things, disrespectful bs, and because they said one true thing the other must be true as well. They also try to sound smart and pick a few rare cases of over-the-top things and then apply that to much more. They're filled with tricks, and that's basically it. I'm not judging anyone who are fooled by them too harshly, they're just taken advantage of. Personally I've watched so. f*****g. many. hours. of "anti-feminist" and "conservative" garbage, but never again will I be fooled (about this). -_-

Ofc. when it comes to economics certain things may not work. But that's not what I talked about.

Watch "Cops".

When cops see white people in a black ghetto they think they're there for drugs or prostitution.

And yet in comparison, how many more blacks get arrested for drugs? Whites and blacks use drugs in equal numbers, and yet it's blacks who get sent to prison for the exact same crime. Whites getting arrested buying drugs in black neighborhoods might be one of the few occasions where white stoners are netted.

But where are the calls for diversity and mass immigration to change the face of China?

Speech can only ruin lives when you condition people to be offended or yes a threat.
