Is this professor getting banned to speak at a public college forum or something?

A nobody professor loses his **** and says whites are inhuman, and conservatives cry racism. A US Presidential Candidate says Mexicans are rapists and thieves, and they vote him in. Really admiring the double standard presented here.

Black people can be racist, that's true. White people just can't complain about it, because black racism wouldn't exist if white people didn't enslave them, subjugate them, lynch them, and so many other things. If I was a member of a group that was hunted enslaved and oppressed, I'd hate the group that did it to us. So it's a bit ridiculous when that group cries racist when someone says something hurtful against them. Unlike most racism directed at minorities, white people actually earned their enmity.

This is nothing more than a weak propaganda tactic brought on by the right, who are scared their privilege is disappearing as other ethnic groups gain acceptance. White people are like that schoolyard bully who makes the weaker kids punch themselves in the fact, then cries to the teacher if the kid ever gets the upper hand. "They said mean things Ms. Teacher, I don't know why they hate me, boo hoo." followed by a sly smirk towards the kid.

Frankly, I'm surprised every black person isn't super racist. If something like slavery, and decades of oppression ever happened to white people, they'd have such a hate on. Mexicans offer their labor cheaper, and white people elect a reality tv star to build a wall (which will never work) to keep them out. That's what he meant by white people are inhuman. They set up rules and regulations to better their own lives at the expense of others. A sentiment, I think white people have earned ten times over, if I'm being honest.



And now the US imprisons more per ca pita (majority black people) than any other country in the world, and calls itself the land of the free. It's inhuman.

That's not really true. The idea that black racism wouldn't exist if some white people weren't racist is laughable. Especially considering when you take historical accuracy into account(i.e. the slaves brought over to the New World were often those captured and enslaved by other Africans; there was a very clear understanding of the concept of subjugation given the existence of extensive African empires which went out and conquered other tribes; extrajudicial killings were common in Africa(still are); etc.


So in other words if I was Chinese I could yell obscenities at any or all Japanese people I came across because they collectively oppressed us collectively?

Once again, not true. Give me an ethnic group and I could give you a laundry list of horrific things people of that ethnic group did that, under your claims, it would be justified to hate them therefore.

A more accurate analogy would be white people as the bigger, tougher high school bully who comes onto the scene and smacks around the old middle school bullies who can't quite grasp why it's happening.

Decades of oppression have happened to white people before buddy. European Jews, Irishmen and Scots, Protestants in France, Poles in Russia and Prussia, Slavs in Austria, Greeks and Armenians in Turkey.....

Imprisioning the guilty does not prevent one from being called the Land of the Free, sorry.

Ummmm. Well, unless you forgot to mention that this professor said that the article is an example of racism and should be studied with that understanding, I'm not sure what you're trying to say.




So if I publicly share an article saying that we need to kill all the Jews, I don't see how it helps me that I didn't author it. It's still a horrible thing that I shared, which implies agreement rather strongly. No?

You really need to get educated. Here's a start: White Slavery

No sir, I have real guilt. I was raised by white supremacists. From a very young age, I was taught to hate black people, Jewish people, Muslims, and race traitors in an open way. I graduated from high school shortly after my parents went to prison. I'm a millennial, no one can say racism isn't alive and well in this day and age to me. It almost ruined my life. I know what hate is, and what it looks like when it's hiding in plain sight. I can tell you, most white people are completely oblivious, intentionally oblivious, to how our laws and systems are being abused to target minorities. It's the old plausible deniability gambit. As long as they are given even a flimsy excuse to justify an action, white people can enjoy the benefits of systematic racism with none of the guilt. And protect the people that put in those systems, from a morally un-compromised position.

It's how white hate has adapted to fight Political Correctness, and I'm not falling for it.

The practice of self flagellation might go a long why in your case to help sooth your pains created by all us white folk.

You should read the articles you comment on.

Here's a quote from the professor.



He made some angry posts and clarified. I don't think he's a hero, and I don't agree with his posts, but the OP is a misrepresentation of this case, and the Campus Reform article is inflammatory excrement.

His words were pretty clear. He didn't call for the death of a system, but rather individuals.

That was very clear.

Hmm, after examining the wording I can see how you could take it either way. What does "them" refer to in the hashtag? I am sure there is a grammatical term for that. It isn't "dangling participle", but something like that.

If he was calling for the death of a system, would he have said LetIt****ingDie?

I think its OK because he retracted/clarified it. I think this is no big deal.

Which one do you think is more likely to be a lie?

The original postings or the CYA afterwards?

I think you will choose the most damning interpretation regardless. We can either accept when people tell us their intentions are benign or we can pigeon-hole them as enemies. The political atmosphere in America has been so poisonous lately that we give no quarter and allow no room for error.

Sure, if he were talking about one thing.

But "vectors of their destructive mythology of whiteness and their white supremacy system" is plural. And those are the things the tweet says they need to "put end" to.

There's a distinct difference between someone saying, "I like the current President" and saying "an entire race of people should die".

Just sayin'.

Also if we fire the child molesters, will we also fire people with speeding tickets? Makes ya think

Because they want to. That's all it takes in America.

A professor does not have control of the American military including nukes so a religion bigot and racial bigot president and his supporters are far more dangerous then a college professor.

No one should be allow to keep his job if he dare to made statements in support of Trump.

What nonsense are you spewing? There have been 45 US presidents and 38 to 40 in that group have far more racists
credentials than Trump!
