It all started when my left wing (unfortunately a lot of my extended family is on the left) cousin sent me one of those Netflix memes that mock race swapping and she was mad about it and I guess she expected me to be upset. I simply told her that the joke has a lot of basis in reality and there is a massive over representation of black people in modern day entertainment along with lgbt and some other minorities to a lesser extent. I even told her that I would be surprised if Netflix adapted a book and didn't race swap. I also pointed out that in a majority white country, it makes sense that most of the entertainment would be white people. She then gave me a lecture about representation and I told her that people who have to see themselves in everything have a mental issue and then she really went off.
Long story short, I tried to explain to her that they just want her to be angry all the time and that they have no use for you if you are content with your life. During the "summer of love" I tried to get her to see how the applauding of rioting and looting is the media essentially saying that black people are savages that can't be expected to act civilized, and the same thing with education. Lowering standards should be insulting and make you want to prove what you can do, but she didn't see it that way.
Needless to say the conversation ended with her telling me that she can't really be surprised because I've always "acted white" from a young age and the fact that I voted for Trump shows that I have embraced white supremacy.
Honestly it is funny how many times I've been accused of white supremacy, but I think the next time I am called a supremacist I'll just say thank you since by today's standard it means someone who leads a decent life and works. I guess the relatively small amount of European DNA I have has really been working overtime.
I am waiting for one of the main streaming services to show a movie about a black teen who was involved in blm but becomes disillusioned, stumbles across some Thomas Sowell videos on Youtube, and comes to realize that the "blame the white man" mentality is poisonous and that he controls his own destiny. I'm waiting Hollywood.......
"You can't reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into."
That's what children do. They are children.
Should have backhanded her then raised your hand again and said "Do you want me to keep acting like a nigger?" But then again that would have just turned her on which would make things awkward.
Ha! Sadly I’ve known women who do seem to be turned on by abusive men.
A man strong enough to check a woman's bullshit is necessarily strong enough to protect her and their children, in theory. Doesn't mean he will in practice (see abusers), but it means he could. For a low-quality woman, that's enough. "I can fix him," is the next line of female-fantasy BS that follows the basal attraction to the violence and drama of machismo.
It's tiresome.
And in the act of "fixing" they become insufferable at best or abusive at worse.
A common line near the end of that kind of foundation for a relationship is "why can't you be like you were when I first met you" or "I want the old you" or "you've changed", while completely ignoring the fact that THEYRE the ones who caused it.
"hes out of line, but hes right"
Cut yourself off from that cunt. She's already done the same to you.
I know. We were close as kids but she has definitely been poisoned by the white man bad mindset. Though she lives in a nice suburban area that is majority white. So she fits right in with the race hustlers.
I have but it’s the usual twisted logic about wanting the best for her family yet at the same time being “oppressed” by white ppl that she willingly moves close to
So, being oppresses ist the best for her family? Who knew.
I'm with the others here: You won't reason her out of her mindset. If she keeps coming at you, I'd suggest that you keep reacting with facts at your leisure. As in: If you have the time and think it'd be funny to see/hear her rebooting. And don't expect changing anything.
Using logic? Thinking things through before acting? Acknowledging reality? Knowing math?
"Shit mang, you be acting white eh eff." said the person who thinks rationality and intelligence are inherently white... Which says some horrible stuff about their own worldview.
That’s what I’ve been saying for years.
Oof. Is that the first time she told you that?
First time she said it but I’ve heard that since 7th grade
I honestly just ask these people how dumb can they be to not only be racist, but be racist against themselves.
What do you think is going to happen when you achieve the goal of thinking that all white people like yourself are bad and subhuman and need to be gotten rid of?
Exactly. I’ve brought that point up more than a few times
Given demographic replacement continues swiftly? You get South Africa, then Zimbabwe.
Honest question: what does your cousin actually want for you here?
"Acting white" generally means a decent job, decent prospects, solid home life, etc, etc.
Is your cousin upset because you didn't live an "authentic black experience" and die due to gang violence at the age of 12?
I find this very curious. The British black experience - what I've seen of it from the outside - is very different from the US black experience, even if that fact upsets UK BLM quite a bit.
Yep. Some people think you aren’t authentically black unless you are either, speaking jive, committing crimes, or protesting over some nonsense. What boggles my mind is how many young black people are convinced nothing has changed since 1900. But when you reward people for being “oppressed” then you’ll find it everywhere. During the blm riots I got into so many arguments with the idiots who acted like it was proof that America was a deeply racist country.
"Look, look at all of these black people rioting, pillaging, looting and murdering without a single consequence - see how racist the US is!"?
People had to see that. But a lot of pp were too scared to point that out.
I mean, you get points for trying. But some just don't seem to understand rational thought anymore.
They try to "act white" too, they just suck at it. They think that white prosperity comes from racism, so they embrace racism to try to tap into that same success, while they dismiss the virtues that actually allow a society to thrive as pointless "white supremacy."
And anything like hard work or personal accountability is seen as white supremacy. Can’t make this stuff up
Follow your path, it is the only thing you can do.
bro, don't discuss things like these with women, specially intracultural bitches
it's hopeless
most women i knew like this are in their second abortion and all came back looking for me years later now that im with a based white and traditional woman
been logical against a leftist?
I would have just punched her in the face.
Well she is family. I punched her with my debate skills
To a leftist the party is first, even before family, she stopped being family the moment she became a part of the party
I cannot tell you how many times I have heard this idiotic argument--the absence of X identity on TV or in the movies makes X in real life feel "invisible" and, naturally, "marginalized" (the left's favorite cliche).
The assumption is that to have a well adjusted ego, a healthy self-concept, you need to see someone like yourself as a fictional character. This is an incredibly narrow and juvenile attitude toward art and a very frightening take on self, ego, and the so-called "social contract." It values narcissism and makes any critique of the human condition other than the problems associated with race, sex, or ethnicity irrelevant.
This is why, for but one example, you see the latest edition of Moby Dick with an introduction and critical apparatus, "updated for contemporary concerns about race, gender, and sexuality." as if the human experience is reducible to these pet political issues of the narcissistic left.
Yea I’m so sick of updating things for a modern audience. It’s good to learn how people thought.
The moment someone drops the "phobe" I immediately bounce. Not even worth a nanosecond of my limited life energy. They just aren't worth the time.
"...mock race swapping and SHE was mad..." The Imp saw this one coming a mile away. #TheImpWasRight
Yea. I’m grateful to have grown up in a two parent home. My dad’s older sister had multiple kids by multiple men. Some of my cousins are in a good spot now but some aren’t and you can definitely see the toll it takes on the kid.
I absolutely love that movie. Although I wish his little brother wouldn’t have been shot but I get the overall lesson.
