Other than the 1488 crowd wanting to be able to say ‘no blacks allowed’ in certain businesses, I’m genuinely curious what else is in there that should make it get repealed?
I personally would like it not repealed mainly because I would be personally affected by said policy obviously, but I’m curious in the reasons outside of just that, if y’all have reasons other than that, as AFAIK, the CRA violates freedom of assembly in the view of people who have that opinion.
Because the outcome that it has created is clear for all to see. And not just the civil rights act, but all the prog policies of the sixties.
America, despite quite a few policy missteps before, still functioned before the sixties.
It came to a very rapid stop afterwards. We've been on a downhill trajectory ever since, something very much in evidence today. When you're trying to fix a machine that is broken, you figure out what isn't right and you undo it. You to set it back to how it was before. In extreme cases you have to go back to original factory settings.
This reply scared him and he name-dropped you further up as the bogeyman reason he needs to dislike Whites. I scrolled down to see what delightfully rayciss things you had to say, and this is super tame.
OP is a bitch in addition to all his other problems.
Oh I've certainly said quite a few "racist" things in the past, not that I think op dug them up at all.
What I find funny is the lack of self reflection here, which is often mirrored among blacks in the United States.
On the one hand we have a world in which the civil rights act was never passed and the corresponding destruction of the United States economy did not take place. This is one in which blacks are begrudgingly tolerated across most of the country. But it's also one in which the average buying power of the black family is double what it is today and because effectively policing criminals wasn't functionally banned, one in which their subculture isn't largely criminal. They eventually gain an uneasy acceptance but are left in their respective enclaves largely in peace. Note, I'm not spouting off here, this is literally what every other large scale accepted outgroup has done in the history of the nation, most recently Asians.
On the other hand we have the present situation, in which the CRA lead to a huge sweep of leftist policy changes, largely destroyed, outsourced or sold away the strongest economy in the history of the planet, and... One in which blacks are still only begrudgingly but mandatorially tolerated by law. This situation and the accompanying lack of legal accountability has created a deep and simmering resentment among the white race, because blacks have effectively become a plague, and in the long term is likely to lead to a pogrom of wide scale and proportion once the white left loses their grip. A pogrom that thirteen percent of the population has no chance of surviving.
And on the whole I've found that they actually PREFER the latter choice.
It's absolutely baffling to me.
Agreed completely.
You don't even need to go hypothetical. Thriving black communities and businesses existed pre-CRA because they had a partially captive market: other blacks. Integration wiped them out because they couldn't compete with White businesses.
And for the record, you have consistently excellent takes.
Well first of all thank you.
And you are correct about black businesses in the past. It's actually a smaller scale example of what happened with NAFTA. When so called free trade was instituted, Mexican local farmers found themselves unable to compete with the economy of scale of the United States. We caused, IMO deliberately so since NAFTA was drafted and influenced by people who we now know as the WEF, the largest economic downturn in Mexico of the last century. And given that they'd just had a depression almost immediately before that since they outspent their GDP hosting the Olympics... Well you don't need to major in economics to see why they started pouring across the border in numbers.
Dislike whites? No, I don’t at all and I hate that you assume that just because I’m genuinely curious as to what this would do.
Bruh
You said you were afraid of being ran out of town. When called an anti-White racist, you said your comment was because you assumed
When all he said was that the CRA and the other prog policies of the sixties were very clearly an inflection point for the country. Is he wrong? Was he advocating that (people like) you be kept out of local restaurants?
My pessimist thinking comes back to thinking the worst, so it’s me being an idiot. I don’t think we’ll see millions of businesses become white and/or asian only, I just overreacted by the thought of being excluded from a business that I’ve been frequenting for years as an example.
Then by all means, feel free to explain what you meant above.
In terms of the OP? Well, I never actually paid much attention as to why people wanted that repealed, but with everything I’ve actually read today, I understand why, and reading the reply to that other person where you talk about how the economy got messed up due to policing being nonexistent (I blame the economy more on Hart-Cellar and immigration more than just the CRA) and part of the policing could also be more recent, since the crime bill and stop and frisk were actually beneficial, but leftist cities decided to stop doing that because the people getting stopped were unruly blacks + the CIA not only importing drugs but also promoting rap to become what it was (that Rick Ross book explains a lot), but in general I get how you believe that the CRA is a big part of why the US is as fucked up as it is today.
I am just trying to think about how changes in the law affect me, because a lot of how I think about the law is ‘how would I feel if the law was enforced on me/how would I feel if certain restrictions were put upon me’, so that I’m not blind as to how laws effect others, but meh.
I just think that there’s so much more as to how black culture got to become what it was than just the CRA, like I mentioned above, but like I’ve said in other comments above this, I hate ghetto black culture, I don’t like BLM supporters, but because a repeal of the CRA would allow businesses to do what I mentioned above, I worry about it.
I think the way whites have been demonized for the past 100+ years is pretty bullshit and absolutely terrible, but I’m simply unsure if this is the solution to that. I’m just a black nerd who hates how ghetto thugs act and effect my life.
Edit: One thing I actually noticed in my life just from thinking about it more here; most of my friends outside of fighting games aren’t black, which I think is partly because ghetto people make me sick.
