Sad.
Apparently it no longer matters what you say about blacks; if there is any way -- no matter how irrational -- your comment can be shown to be negative and/or offensive, that's all that matters.
Adams' comment sounds like it was uttered with a combination of irritation and sarcasm, and as such he has a point, doesn't he?
Bah.
I'd like to see some coverage on blacks who are not woke, and who find the whole woke thing annoying. and want to be disassociated from it.

Imagine being able to write this without seeing the direct, 180 degree contradiction:
“I make two main points:
-
Treat everyone as an individual (no discrimination).
-
Avoid any group that doesn’t respect you,” the tweet continued. “Does anyone think that is bad advice?”

What I don't understand, is how the Post can state, "3 people are typing" at the top of the page. How do they know anybody's doing anything on their computer, until they click "submit?"
As for the content of the article, yeah whatever, I couldn't concentrate as I was so offended by the typing issue.

So what about the Rasmussen survey? Anyone want to address that finding?

I’m sure literally everyone here thinks it’s a sad state of affairs and isn’t particularly surprised about it. It’s what identity politics does.
It also creates an similar reaction in a lot of whites - such as Scott Adams.
Only non-witches get due process.

And that is a feature, not a bug.

Actually, it shows you where racism really exists.

The question I would be curious to know the answer to is how many white people think it’s okay to be white?

I'm rather fond of it.
I am as well, but I bet a poll would come back under 80%…

All I can find so far are these: https://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/lifestyle/general_lifestyle/january_2023/not_woke_yet_most_voters_reject_anti_white_beliefs
That's just a "teaser" press release telling you snippets about the survey. The rest are paywalled behind something Rasmussen calls "Platinum account." :man-shrugging:

I’d be me - lung disease and all - 1000 times over before I’d roll the dice again. But there’s some familiarity bias there. I might well think the same thing had I been born in a Brazilian favela.

As long as you’re typing into the page somewhere, the page can see it and report back whatever it wants.

"I hate you."
"I hate you more."
I wonder if this is a question that can even be answered. Also, what use would be the answer.

Not as many as used to, but give it time and more education dollars and we'll git 'er done!

His comments were a little strange, but it's a shame just comments can get folks canceled. It's like... do you think there would be a mass un-subscribing from newspapers just because it includes a comic strip by a guy who made some comments in a podcast? Then again, not sure how many people subscribe BECAUSE the Dilbert strip is included.
