What's worse? Overt vs covert racism...

by:    

I'm "BIPOC" but I find that term so stupid lol. Anyways, I've experienced far more racism from liberals than from conservatives. It's much more subtle and indirect, but I find it far more offensive and degrading. For example, white liberals speak about my race like we're children and that they know what's best for us and it's only through their good graces can we be lifted out of poverty. This robs us of any self-actualization. I understand there are key problems, but give me the proud boy anyday over the liberal who will smile, wave, and ingratiate...just my two cents lmao.

Discrimination will end the day we stop talking about race and the differences we have.

Lmao what’s wrong with talking about our differences? We are humans, not clones, so obviously it’s expected that no 2 people or 2 communities or 2 races will be alike. If we talk out all our differences we will stop misunderstandings. I get what you’re saying but it only makes sense if we lived in a world where people fully educated themselves about every corner of the Earth. Until then, talking about our cultural or racial differences helps to educate others to eventually see each other as just human

bipoc is the dumbest term ive heard, as if hispanic kids, vietnamese kids or indian kids whose parents own a gas station or something don't have to deal with racism lol. Just another way for white libs to separate minorities

at least their parents are business owners, most BIPOC dont even come from families that rival the privilege of those who can own gas station chains- which btw are fairly lucrative...the focus needs to be on BIPoC because no other group has disadvantages like Black and Indig American

@True... yes exactly, that's why Asia and the Middle East is catching up fast and some countries like Japan and South Korea doing better than Western Europe for more than half a century now. But, Africa you see still has not caught up, not even close, in fact there is a lack of momentum in the first place. Europe created the global order because of historical luck, sure, but that doesn't imply anything about the average IQ and future potential of Africa. They are unrelated statements. Even if you go to other parts of the world- America, Europe, Brazil, etc.- Blacks are not able to come out of poverty as a whole or on average even after being there for several generations. Yes of course there are outliers and the average IQ of a Black person cannot actually tell you anything about the IQ of randomly selected Black person, but I hope you know that already considering its basic stats.

What a dumb comment. I hope you realize most immigrant gas station owners are Indian Gujarati refugees from the territorial war of the 80s, meaning they had no money, resources, or networks. BIPOC if anything have an advantage in comparison because they’ve been able to build generational wealth longer than a freakin refugee.

lmao i know my history, India hasnt had territorial wars (apart from with neighboring Pakistan and China) since 1800s.... there was a major Gujrat refugee wave from Uganda in Africa where they had been for some time but then expelled unfairly in the 70's... you are right tho but you yourself recognized that it happened in the 80's and not a single Gujarati-American today is in that kind of refugee situation... in fact, the current Guajarati generation is doing more than fine and have a huge representation in high income fields... Indian-Americans in general apparently have the highest income per person on average

the only regions of conflict which btw were at the level of near nuclear war were over Kashmir and Aksai Chin... both incredibly far from the state of Gujarat ... India doesn't have many refugees leaving the country but it takes a ton of refugees from neighboring countries
