In short, White people have committed the most atrocities in human history. Heck they've killed the most, terrorized the most, Got all the natives almost extinct, shoot black people for fun, Manipulated so they can steal a good portion of Mexico...

But somehow, this is their narrative.

1. Anyone fighting their army trying to protect their own freedom and own iden y and free from outside interference - Terrorist.

2. Manage to kill 80% of aboriginal population - It was neccesary to insure a free country and provide the aboriginal the "right" way of living

3. Systematically put Black people into a major economical disadvabtage through racial discrimination in school, jobs etc..Their economical situation forces them to do bad things - Black people are natural Moneky and thugs.

4. Complains about the whole concept of immigration - Stole North America, Australia, South Africa, Israel through systematic immigration and killings.

You're average white person doesnt even how Africa has been systematically been put in a cycle of poverty through Invasion, Killing, and dictating powers. Every damn African Power has to be somewhat "West" approved all the while these Powers are eating away their countries resources through business partnerships with Western Business. China is now copying their political game, but have no international support to committ Economical sanctions if need be. Any power that doesnt commit to uncle sam policies is automatically a "dictator" with possible Sanctions.

It's a dirty cycle that isnt going to end unless Africans stop being brainwashed into thinking the west is going to provide them with a proper political structure. They need to figure something out for themselves because if they do, Africa has all the resources to reach peak society.

I'm not even going to bother with the Middle East since every American has been brainwashed into thinking all Muslim arabs are demons but the process is identical. Make sure, every power is a puppet, if they are not a puppet..label them dictators or terrorist.

Egypt democratically elects a power. West interefere until they get the right guy on power etc.

Anyone thinking Sign up for the US military they're a hero protecting the US and the world

off...

Even the citizens of unisted states have been placed in a systematic form of slavery that offer an illusion of "freedom". It's just silly.

You are still facing this "race" bull in the U.S. ?

[FromWayDowntown]

Just Pop being Pop:

Popovich has been free with his opinion before, and maybe he says what Steve Kerr said last week. “No matter what side of the spectrum you’re on,” Kerr said, “I would hope that every American is disgusted with what is going on around the country.”

But Popovich has always done more than talk. He’s taken the Spurs on field trips on the road, he’s watched presidential debates with his players and last winter he arranged a movie night with e Lee while the team was in Cleveland.

The feature presentation: Lee’s “Chi-Raq,” a film about gang violence in Chicago.

Popovich has at times treated his locker room as if it were a classroom, and his sense of priorities was never clearer than in June of 2014. The Spurs were about to begin a memorable series, the second Finals against the Heat, when Popovich began with a history lesson.

He explained to his players the significance of Eddie Mabo Day to Indigenous Australians, and the moment brought tears to Mills’ eyes.

A year ago this week was no different. Then, Popovich invited someone whose actions were far more lasting and polarizing than anything Kaepernick ever thought of. John Carlos, his gloved left hand once in the air of the Mexico City Olympics, was the guest.

Popovich has rarely publicized such moments. As it is with the Spurs’ trips to visit with wounded veterans, Popovich isn’t looking to promote himself or his team. This is how he tries to build a better culture for his players.

He figures the more they experience together, the closer they are, and it’s a never-ending process. The Spurs are hoping to bring Cornel West, author and social activist, to speak to the team this year.

Gotta admit TGY is growing on me. As soon as Anderson makes him get over his Kyle hate, he'll be all right.

If he plays like summer league Kyle, I'll stop hating him

[HarlemHeat37]

I'm sure this is just trolling bc nothing could be more counterproductive to the cause than starting a war with police. If you think they have itchy trigger fingers now, just wait until its perceived that BLM are hunting cops. Or worse, they'll stop patrolling in bad neighborhoods and crime will get out of hand and innocent people pay the price. Fixing the system won't be done with violence.

I was just playing..I made my feelings known about the Dallas killings, it was a very disappointing response after the Philando murder, since White people wouldn't have been able to play the but he had a criminal record card(if you search Philando Castille on google, the #4 result is "criminal record")

As I've said in the NBA forum in one of my many race threads(usually anti-Jordan), I'm vocal about coonery, racism among sports fans, etc, but it doesn't actually bother me..lower-class Black people will be oppressed and discriminated against everywhere, especially in America, and that won't change during my lifetime..when I get pulled over or questioned by police, I accept that I will be treated like a dog..all you should do in life is focus on yourself and your people, though IMO..

I left my family at 16, my parents made a combined 30k per year, and I had a criminal record at 18..In less than 6 years, I paid a down payment for their first house and I get to work on the internet all day while stacking $$$..so while racism will always be rampant and Black people from impoverished areas will always be at a disadvantage by being in the cycle of prison and murder, at least there's opportunity for you if you're actually able to escape your surroundings(as unlikely as it is)..

In an ideal world, we wouldn't just "accept" this reality, but it's simply easier to live your everyday life when you accept that this is just the world we live in, unfortunately..I commend activists for their dedication and optimistic naivety, but IMO it's better to just accept their racism and do your own thing..why should I care about the opinions of the many upper-middle class racists on SpursTalk that miss the days of Larry Bird playing basketball?

[apalisoc_9]

Probably unnoticed in Pop's interview is how he aknwoledged that typically change only happens through political pressure. It's a great touch in history. It's always wrong to kill people or be violent about your stance, but in many cir stances, the problems oppressed people face are way too deep for a gradual systematic change to happen.

Kapernick and all the kneelers are not even being violent. They're simply applying societal pressure on the US in hopes for a change. It's brave and People should stand up to what is right.

The United States of America is not Justice..You dont blindly go patriotic on whatever america does and its societal structure. You take actions to improve the current structure.

If every american in the 1800-1900 was your typical white american ignorant trump supporter..Muslims demons, black are thugs, mexicans this etc.. The US wouldnt be the country it is today full of power.

The forefathers like Abraham Lincoln are all closer to TGY, trill, TD21, Harlem in thinking than your average white poster.

[HarlemHeat37]

The only facet of this discussion that still elicits any type of anger from me is when White people use the "Black on Black crime" argument, tbh..otherwise, their anonymous internet racism entertains me, for the most part

[apalisoc_9]

White People are surprised Black people are committing crimes against black people in largley BLACK PEOPLE community.

I'm just glad to know if this are todays white people their future as a race is glim...

@Harlem, you should have went to reddit during the Turkish coup..So many White people making ottoman references and how erdogan is planning on continuing the ottoman conquest of the whole of europe.

The insecurity was hilarious. We're talking about the same people who vouche for democratic elections but turn against it soon as the leader doesnt suc b to their stupid outside interference needs.

I tend to think your average white middle class tend to have that same insecurity towards sucessfull Black People.

[tmtcsc]

All the various gestures are now a fad. The impact is over. That being said, I can see a LaMarcus Aldridge doing it because he is a follower. Sadly, nothing is going to be done about the problem until the public holds the government accountable for positive change. All this other stuff is "look at me" bull .
