Dear (some) white folks: Thank you for proving my point and showing your a*s...I mean privilege [View all] Chitown Kev Nov 2015 OP

America is a rabidly, viciously racist country. White privilege is EVERYWHERE randys1 Nov 2015 #1

Let me say...as a White person... VanillaRhapsody Nov 2015 #2

The utter hypocrisy of it is Chitown Kev Nov 2015 #4

they are blinded by the White... VanillaRhapsody Nov 2015 #5

"blinded by the white" ismnotwasm Nov 2015 #39

..you are welcome to use it... VanillaRhapsody Nov 2015 #42

I'm gonna put it in my tag line ismnotwasm Nov 2015 #47

Look at the people taking offense and those high fiving those with the delicate fee fees Number23 Nov 2015 #84

I just don't get some people HassleCat Nov 2015 #3

No they don't VanillaRhapsody Nov 2015 #53

Oh no - he made the book! NaturalHigh Nov 2015 #56

If you want civility on DU, maybe you should try showing some yourself. NaturalHigh Nov 2015 #7

Trust me... Chitown Kev Nov 2015 #10

If someone had replied to a video of a group of white people... NaturalHigh Nov 2015 #13

He then went on to make his point ismnotwasm Nov 2015 #41

"Shit happens" wasn't the point? NaturalHigh Nov 2015 #43

Fuck no it wasn't the point ismnotwasm Nov 2015 #45

Have it your way. I would have voted to hide. NaturalHigh Nov 2015 #48

No it wasn't ismnotwasm Nov 2015 #49

"Shit happens" wasn't making light of that beating? Seriously? NaturalHigh Nov 2015 #51

My question on that post was Chitown Kev Nov 2015 #55

I don't need you to validate my credibility either ismnotwasm Nov 2015 #57

That's good. Otherwise you would be off to a rough start. NaturalHigh Nov 2015 #58

I'm not off to any damn "start" ismnotwasm Nov 2015 #77

Don't respond anymore - Group Host JustAnotherGen Nov 2015 #86

I'm white, and even I saw the point. yardwork Nov 2015 #65

This is the AA group, not gdp. bravenak Nov 2015 #11

Looks like we found one... VanillaRhapsody Nov 2015 #27

This one is one I'm familiar with JustAnotherGen Nov 2015 #91

Group Host JustAnotherGen Nov 2015 #85

Hey I am here. At your invitation. And this is how you discuss issues? Bread and Circus Nov 2015 #8

No need to come to the AA group being aggressive. bravenak Nov 2015 #9

I was told to come here so I did. I was told this is the place where issues should be discussed. Bread and Circus Nov 2015 #19

Are you proud of this post? bravenak Nov 2015 #21

Very. Bread and Circus Nov 2015 #63

Actually you got here late...very late...for one Chitown Kev Nov 2015 #22

This is going to be my last post on this thread and this forum Bread and Circus Nov 2015 #102

So, let's review: today, you learned that African Americans in the US have a high rate of Squinch Nov 2015 #26

You can't help it.... VanillaRhapsody Nov 2015 #29

Husker do, baby! Squinch Nov 2015 #37

norwegian ("husker du" -> "do you remember") unblock Nov 2015 #111

Thank you. Squinch Nov 2015 #115

basically the same in all the scandinavian languages, just spelled differently unblock Nov 2015 #120

He is discussing it. You are not. That's the issue. Bread and Circus Nov 2015 #30

Should, should, should..... Listen to yourself. yardwork Nov 2015 #32

Yet you are telling me what I should do. Hmmm... do you hear yourself? Bread and Circus Nov 2015 #69

You bet your sweet buppy I'm telling you what to do. yardwork Nov 2015 #70

Ok so you admit you are telling me what to do. Bread and Circus Nov 2015 #74

Who "invited" you to the AA forum? Please show me the post where you were "invited" Number23 Nov 2015 #90

LOL, he's referring Chitown Kev Nov 2015 #92

Jury results. Codeine Nov 2015 #121

Thank you. H2O Man Nov 2015 #122

Chi Town Kev. Go look at my thread he linked in this OP. Bread and Circus Nov 2015 #93

Your posts were a perfect example JustAnotherGen Nov 2015 #98

"Although I will say I am surprised at what I did find here in this forum." Number23 Nov 2015 #104

+1 Agschmid Nov 2015 #75

He mentioned it. Big freaking deal. The minimum wage is an issue that has come to Squinch Nov 2015 #36

And, PS, you aren't exactly discussing the issue either, are you? You are simply telling Squinch Nov 2015 #38

I learned a lot about you too! So that's a bonus! Bread and Circus Nov 2015 #97

That's just friggin unbelievable ismnotwasm Nov 2015 #44

Poster has a new OP in GD-P. yardwork Nov 2015 #64

I don't now why the person (apparently) assumes that I'm a Hillary supporter Chitown Kev Nov 2015 #66

But, you're black. yardwork Nov 2015 #68

And that's another thing ismnotwasm Nov 2015 #81

Oh dear gwheezie Nov 2015 #110

Because you are not an enthusiastic, full bore, he can do no wrong Bernie supporter. IOWs ... 1StrongBlackMan Nov 2015 #118

Have you been able to find anything in regards to health care? Bread and Circus Nov 2015 #72

It was years ago on old DU. I'll never find links. yardwork Nov 2015 #76

Good way to put it ismnotwasm Nov 2015 #83

Found on the front page of the AA forum Number23 Nov 2015 #89

I asked him and Natural High to go JustAnotherGen Nov 2015 #95

Absolutely agree. Which is why I was wondering who'd "invited" him to the group Number23 Nov 2015 #105

Group Host: Normally we give first and last warning JustAnotherGen Nov 2015 #94

I didn't invite you over here, exactly Chitown Kev Nov 2015 #15

Since you're here, I have a question. yardwork Nov 2015 #25

I am a physician. I take care of poor people. I absolutely support the ACA. Bread and Circus Nov 2015 #28

I remember a very different stance from you. yardwork Nov 2015 #31

The affordable care act? Show me the links. Bread and Circus Nov 2015 #59

I'm a registered nurse. ismnotwasm Nov 2015 #46

primary care Bread and Circus Nov 2015 #61

I'm also in the healthcare field, and interested to learn more. yardwork Nov 2015 #67

I am still waiting for your links. Bread and Circus Nov 2015 #73

You're gonna wait a long time. I never promised links. yardwork Nov 2015 #78

Because you can't find any because what you said is a lie Bread and Circus Nov 2015 #82

Okey dokey ismnotwasm Nov 2015 #79

I can easily understand the issue with the first thread you linked to. PersonNumber503602 Nov 2015 #12

My posts in that thread explain why I find it offensive. yardwork Nov 2015 #24

I think it's also not likely that Bernie will do more about this issue than Squinch Nov 2015 #34

I agree. I don't see much if any difference in their approach on this issue. yardwork Nov 2015 #40

You're OK Chitown Kev Nov 2015 #50

I don't get the motive behind your posts. upaloopa Nov 2015 #14

This specific one? Chitown Kev Nov 2015 #16

This one and the other one. upaloopa Nov 2015 #18

I didn't (and don't) need for Malcolm X to tell me that. Chitown Kev Nov 2015 #23

Some people can't help themselves gwheezie Nov 2015 #20

You should just put VanillaRhapsody Nov 2015 #33

The perpetual listen to us lowly minorities we know what's giftedgirl77 Nov 2015 #35

shit happens saturnsring Nov 2015 #60

The problem is clearly that we are allergic to discussing issues. yardwork Nov 2015 #62

It wasn't that way in 2007 / 2008 when I supported Obama. What happened? Bread and Circus Nov 2015 #71

What happened is you seemed to have Kind of Blue Nov 2015 #112

A terrible hide. I hate that the bullshit threads you link to are still up emulatorloo Nov 2015 #114

Your post deserved to be hidden (if any do) jack_krass Nov 2015 #117

Well if you think hiding posts are silly Coolest Ranger Nov 2015 #123
