Can We Stop With The Racism Complaints?

Okay, can we stop using whites as the universal scapegoats for anything that goes wrong? This is absurd. For example, whites used to own slaves. Okay, I get it. That's bad. But just about EVERY OTHER CIVILIZATION HAD SLAVES! Now I don't see people going around saying stuff like, "OMG the Spaniards had slaves that's super racist!" Why? Because that's "Holding their past against them." But somehow even though I've never had a slave I'm guilty for what other whites did many many years ago. How does that make sense? That itself is racist because whites are the only ones who get the blame for this stuff. There were even black slave owners in the U.S. but will people tell you that? No! Because once again that's holding blacks accountable for the sins of their ancestors and it'd be racist to hold that against them. Also it was the north that was so apposed to slavery and set them free! Whites also helped out with things like the Underground Railroad but once again we don't get credit for anything positive we did, only the wrong things that we did. What makes this entire thing so stupid is the fact that the only thing that makes us different from each other is a little bit of skin pigmentation. That's it. And somehow because I'm born with lighter skin than other people I'm all of the sudden guilty for all of this stuff that a bunch of people did years ago. There's no such thing as 'white pride' because then everyone else would complain about all of the bad stuff we did and take us on a guilt trip. Let's be honest here, the real racism is here, but it gets no media recognition because that wouldn't fuel enough hate for them. So can we stop being babies over this whole stupid ordeal and stop recognizing each other by skin color instead of character? For those who didn't read all of this basically people need to get over their pasts and tiny differences and man up for the greater good.

  • Theres such MASSIVE problems in the black community right now that its mind boggling they are even focusing on the random black criminal gunned down by "racist white cop" 1. Majority of their cities/aneighborhoods are in shambles. Trash everywhere. Its pretty much guaranteed you go in a half white half black city, the white side will be clean and the black side dirty. They treat their own areas like shit yet expect whites to treat them like Gold 2. Drive through a black area. Notice how young black males just have to stare at you like they want to kill you? I remember leaving detroit and going to a relatives white city for a holiday and I pointed out to him how weird it was not having everyone stare at me like they want to fight. Just the whole attitude in their cities is on edge 3. Crime rate through the roof. Absolutely no self accountablity here. Focus on one white cop killing a black criminal yet ignore the babies being shot in drive bys. Ignore the numerous crack houses. I could go on and on but theres no point. Again just laughable they focus on trayvon martins of the world instead of trying to better their community for the good blacks
