That's not an example of fascism at all, in any way. Who has been "canceled" exactly, and how is it fascist? Use a specific example. Also. The idea that Trump doesn't participate in cancel culture. Is. Absolutely. Hysterical. The man is a Troll. All he does is talk ***** nonstop. He is trying to cancel people, all the time. How stupid are you?

Well, when White people in America are born -- they didn't get their rights in this country 60 years ago. These White people come from parents & grandparents & great-grandparents & so on that were afforded many opportunities that were specifically denied to non-White Americans. That means, in present day reality, White people are born with many default advantages in America. This is a privilege unique to them. Were you saddened when Saddam's statue went down in Iraq? Who do you think Antifa is? Has anybody met anybody in Antifa? You'd think, of all people, I would know at least one person in Antifa. I'm still looking. I'd love to be a member.

Do you think it's an example of White Privilege that you have the ability to consider racism "not your problem"?

Why isn't it your problem?

I don't know why you are spelling it Moslem and not Muslim, so I really don't know. But again, I think we might be in the 20s now. Every single person I've interacted with here has guessed a different identity. I'm not sure anybody has agreed, actually. Folks like @billsfan1959 took -- he took like 6 swings, I think. He was the best because he convinced himself I was Black for a little while and then he decided I was not Black, and then got really mad. He followed me around like you did. Remember, billsfan? Very bent out of shape when I referred to protestors as "We." As in, you know, "We the People" -- it's unfathomable to him to be "We" with Black people. It has to be "They." And yet, I wonder how many times he's referred to the Bills as "We." He's got a lot of posts, we could check.

What did Covid have to do with anything? What was he a felon of, and what drugs was he on? "The race card" that you "don't buy" — do you think Floyd's targeting by those sociopathic cops is related to the extremely, extraordinarily high amount of Black men incarcerated? Speaking of drugs. Do you have an opinion on the fact that Marijuana's legalization has thus far benefitted and profited White people, when Black people have been jailed at high rates for non-violent drug offenses. In states like liberal California even (once again, racism is not exclusive to Democrat or Republican), or Colorado, marijuana is fully recreationally legal. And still people, mostly Black and POC, are in jail, in those states, for possessing or exchanging a recreational drug that is now legal. The "Black market" is always illegal. Do you think that has any connection to Floyd? Or it's all completely circumstantial. Everything involved with race in America — "the race card" — it's all circumstantial evidence that adds up to nothing for you, eh?

So you do chat about politics with your Black acquaintances/employees then? You've communicated in a way that told you definitively that all of the "multiple" Black people you know aren't Democrats. So, remembering that "black on black violence" "isn't your problem" and since you've also said that at least some of these Black people "did what they had to do to get out" (not sure what that means), why haven't you asked what their solution would be?

How do you know?

So why is Baltimore still considering defunding as of right now? https://www.baltimoresun.com/opinion/op-ed/bs-ed-op-disband-baltimore-police-20200609-7dwii2pbmzcfpjb4flcy3namlu-story.html

Preach it. It's reality. You won't find a ton of support on that from the others here, but you're getting it from me. Trump is what American fascism looks like — fat, stupid, lazy, old, ignorant, racist and loudly proud of it Kinda like most of PPP, come to think of it.

I'm not seeking employment, thank you. Just making conversation. Not sure what you mean by cyber skills exactly. Have you asked your Black acquaintances what their solution is to "Black on Black violence"? Why not?

I don't know why you're spelling it Moslem, that's not familiar to me. I don't really know what you're talking about so I don't know what I'm being asked to support. Do you think George Floyd's murder is an example of "living in the past based on that history"? Do you think it was an isolated incident, completely unaffected by multiple strains of cause & effect otherwise known as history? Which aspect of George Floyd's murder is unrelated to the history of racism in America?

Have you asked them what their solution is to "Black on Black violence"? Why not?

I don't believe owning a business is bad. Good for you. How long have you been going? What profession are you in? Do you work with Black people or employ any people of color?

Well put. Kaepernick understood this. He understood he had Celebrity Privilege. He used it. "With great power comes great responsibility." That's what he was doing. He knew he was making a sacrifice and taking a risk to make a statement and start the conversation. It worked. It was effective. Even in spite of the NFL's deliberate interference. (And also the NFL could've easily just supported him from the beginning, supported the cause -- they already do Breast Cancer Awareness month, why not do something like BLM Month? Black lives matter outside of February) Just in the way that -- let's be honest, we've been to the games -- Bills fans is a community that is probably close to 70% white people. Maybe higher. Even though Buffalo as a city is a lot more diverse than that. And the team is obviously majority Black athletes. So, in the way that Kaep used his Celeb Privilege, it's important to understand that everybody has some form of privilege. It's not the same for everybody. White Privilege is obviously very common, and prevalent. It also means that White people helping the cause means a lot; it encourages their fellow White people to perhaps do the same and challenge racism in the fight for freedom & equality as ideals we actually believe in. We can make them actually ideals that are lived up to. But that's just one form of privilege. There's all kinds of ways people have different advantages. Attractive Privilege or Tall Privilege or Rich Privilege or ... on and on and on. There's all kinds of ways people have influence they can wield, and use it for the force of good!

You seem interested in responsibility. Do you feel an obligation to your identity as an American to know its history? Or do you think that's none of your business?

Who has defunded? Who has disbanded? Where has this happened? Only one state has announced an intent to do so. Nothing has been done. Do you know anything you're talking about?

How many Black people know who you are and talk to you?

How many Black people know who you are and talk to you?

What's your solution to world peace? What's your solution to domestic abuse? What's your solution to drug addiction? What's your solution to white suicide? What's your solution to uneducated whites in the economy?

Why are you insisting that I must be angry? All I am doing is asking you how many swords you have in your home. Why can't you just answer a simple question? You followed me for days asking me the same question. How many swords do you have?

Cool, thanks for this normal conversation. You are a very normal person. You're bad at guessing!

True, but that's not a denial. How many swords in the house?

Yeah, do I? If I say you're a *****face little B word and do a bit of cursing, and tell you to suck my #### and put a rope around your neck and let me drag you in the street ... does that make me sound angry? 'Cause I'm chill, bro. I just like to have an ol' chat with the boys!

You badgered me for 2, 3, however many days to engage me with this level of wit? This is what you brought? I'm willing to bet you're the kind of guy that owns a couple of swords. Tell me I'm not right. Tell me how many swords you have in your home right now.
