Sowell is clearly and Uncle Tom/Ruckus by your standards because he refers to black culture as ghetto culture frequently. I was just citing an esteemed black author.

As an aside. Does it trigger you if I appropriate things? I think I have the itis from breakfast. I’m still hung over from taco Tuesday margs. Today is winesday, so will cook Italian with obnoxious pizzeria music.

Yes, again, Thomas Sowell is a self-hating black man. I'm not sure why you didn't read that the first two times. Also, I'm not 'triggered' by anything you say and that word is moronic.

I think that he loves black people, but hates the culture that it chose to adopt in America at present. That is not self-hating. That is being critical of a culture that was chosen in a very Stockholm syndrome sort of way. I think that he is trying to give black people agency to define a more responsible path forward. If you ever get a chance to watch the MLK comes out of a coma episode of The Boondocks, it speaks to this well. The black creators of The Boondocks must be conservatives or something.

Ah, now you speak for him and the creators of The Boondocks. Is there anyone you don't speak for? Weird how I'm not allowed to do it but you are. Again.

You are really latching onto that. The point that I was trying to make earlier was that you don’t have the numbers to indicate the breakout of black people that agree versus disagree with the author’s sentiments. I don’t reasonably have that either. If a supermajority of black people like their broken ghetto culture, then I don’t believe that they have grounds to complain about their current conditions nor should they get any special treatment.

Yeah, weird how I am latching on to your hypocrisy. I don't care about your point when you won't even acknowledge it.

I give you permission to speak for all black people. Happy?

Nope. That's not admitting to your hypocrisy.

Because I said that they ought to do something whereas your said that they all believe a certain thing. They are not the same.

Uh-huh. Except for when you said what they believe. Nice try.

I said “I think most black people want”. The keywords being “I think” not asserting it as fact.

Uh-huh. Just like you "wager" than I'm Gen-Z even though it took you multiple comments to go from saying I definitely am Gen-Z to saying you "wager" it but that's not actually a real wager.

You are one of the most dishonest people I've ever talked to. Along with being a racist.

You are correct that I doubled-down on you being Gen-Z because it would be easy for you to correct if I was wrong. No outside parties are needed, so I took the gamble. A gamble or wager does not need to involve money. Definition #2 of wager is “used to express certainty”. That’s all it means. Also, you can gamble anything including simply staking your current understanding of an issue to give it up if wrong. Your lack of worldly knowledge is part of why I think you are close to if not Gen-Z.

At the moment, I don’t feel dishonest, just gaslighted since you are trying to fish for ways to peg me as a hypocrite as a deflection, but it is a red herring in order to avoid the true issues.

How will race issues ever be resolved if anyone with good ideas of how to resolve them is dubbed a racist or a self-hater. You are using the “that’s racist” mantra in order to create a wall instead of a dialog.
