Youre from Ireland, nah?Oj a big name there? Still got people talking?
he's trying to move to oklahoma though
Was there a point in all of that rambling on?
Alabama or Georgia. We're being gifted a house in one of these states. Oklahoma would be awesome though. It has unrestricted concealed carry, Alabama and Georgia are shall-issue.
DiAngelo proposes that we instead think of racism as a worldview thats inevitably formed, and reinforced, by a racist society whose institutions deem Whiteness as a neutral standard. Instead of imagining themselves on either side of a bad/good binary of racist or not racist, she suggests that all White people reimagine themselves as occupying a movable position on a continuum of racism.It probably isnt possible to totally escape that continuum, she says; racism is so deeply embedded in society that it informs every facet of our experience and perspective
I don't have a car.
That's okay. Walking around with a bottle of Dewar's in a brown paper bag and screaming "I'M NOT RACIST!!!" in the faces of random bystanders will basically have the same effect as your posts. Gotta watch out in those red states, though - poorly funded public services increase your chance of a violent encounter with police. Stay safe!
Georgia please. Need to keep it red.
Anyone going to try and claim she doesn't think white people are inherently racist?
grossjust stay out of new englandwho cares?
who cares?
It's a political movement many people don't agree with making everyone take the knee at sporting events and pushing some kind of message in entertainment programs. Would you expect to see a defund the BBC dance performance on Britain's got Talent, for example or everyone being coerced to raise a pro-Brexit fist in the air before a cricket match? It bothers me because it's paving the way for things like forced unconscious bias training at companies, obligatory reading of 'White Fragility' at schools, and other nonsense like that. They bully people into accepting all this by the inference that anyone who doesn't wholeheartedly support them must be a racist who thinks black lives don't matter.
And yet, if you look at this thread, we've got stoat flipping out about a book he hasn't read and trembling about Marxist insurgents like we're in Central America in 1986, shanebarry doing one of his driveby howls against racism accusations, even though nobody called him or anyone else racist, Lichtenstein stomping his sandaled feet about anarchy, pillaging, and white guilt from his hut in the tropics, while hangook77 leaks brain puke about Michael Bloomberg banning "sugar soda".
It's hard for those of us who value freedom of speech and oppose cancel culture to understand the mentality of someone like stoat, with his insatiable desire to ban books and punish the BBC for broadcasting problematic dance routines.
No, I've never heard of Oj.
