Wow how ironic... in their attempt to stop something that isn't even racist to begin with they actually became racists. It'd be funny if this cult like thinking

Wow how ironic... in their attempt to stop something that isn't even racist to begin with they actually became racists. It'd be funny if this cult like thinking wasn't infecting our entire country. Thank God the white people were there to tell the black man how to think and feel about himself. After all they're incapable of self care and rational thought... /s

    "Or to Make themselves look good to piers?" Why would Piers Morgan be interested in their debate???

    I'd think piers would be to busy contending with water to care much about how anyone looks.

in their attempt to stop something that isn't even racist to begin with they actually became racists. No, they were racists all along. They merely over-played their hands and revealed it. But actually they reveal it in other ways if you care to look: the hair and the pronouns in bio are giveaway clues. They "colonised" our industry and now it's time they got decolonised themselves.

  This comment is getting downvoted, but the point it makes is validated by my own experience as a black engineer over about 30 years. My "internalized racism" has been explained to me many times by women who share many (if not all) of the same attributes. As near as I can tell, their need to explain my condition is triggered by independent thinking on my part.

    One of the worst forms of racism is often perpetuated by the coastal elites. I'm not saying it starts with a nefarious intent like other forms, but it's rampant. I've brought it up before to some and it's like a light bulb went off, yet they don't want to believe they're a part of it so they try and rationalize. It's where they change how they treat someone based on the color of their skin while alleging they're an ally. They think they need to save or help them because they think they're incapable of doing things like getting ID at the DMV, voting or using the internet. They're the ones that use terms like African American and have never had real talk with some black friends, if they have any at all. They say they're for equality but they don't treat other races or ethnicities as equals. Maybe it just makes themselves feel good, maybe they have a lot of guilt, maybe they feel like they're part of the solution. And certainly, some people could use more help than others, but it's dangerous, unhealthy and unfair to start with the assumption that someone is incapable of something or treat them like a victim to feed their own savior complex or agenda. People who are physically handicapped don't even want people coddling their life. Why do some people assume they need and want their help with everything?
