New York Times standing with writer after her racist tweets come up

[fixingmytoys]

Racial. Not racist. Racism = power + prejudice. It is not possible to be racist to whites.

Omg you are a fool not to white people that dumb, so what you are saying is that you can say for example you will not hire anyone that’s white because of the colour of there skin which is white and that not racist but yeah if you refused to hire anyone because they areblack because of the colour of their skin that is racist,sorry both ways are racist, to refused to hire someone based on the colour of the skin regardless of the colour it is racist, racist things don’t just happen to coloured people happens to all people

Yes and I'm sure that white people aren't getting hired somewhere because of the color of their skin? Or being turned down for something because of it? I've never been turned down for anything in my life because I'm white.

I have been chosen for things over other people because I was white and they were not. It wasn't even a conscious decision sometimes. What he is saying that white power have more power in the United States then other ethnicities and therefore it is hard to actually oppress a white person.

In the word, it's hard to find a place oppressing my race. This whole racism against white people is the new war on Christmas. I'll wait for you to find some third world country beheading white people and use it as proof that white everywhere are being massacred because of this tweet.

In fact the whole war on Christmas pretty much shows that white people were able to create fake oppression for themselves as it was perpetrated mainly by white Christians.

Nobody is perfect but really what would being racist against the people who hold all the power achieve?

Just because it didn't happen to you doesn't mean that doesn't happen. It's like me saying that I was never raped in my life therefore rape doesn't happen.

I'm starting the underground goblin colony in preparation for the rise of the Korean-American ehtnostate. Other races are welcome to join, too. We have openings for Kobolds, Illithids, and Fomorians. You don't want to be on the surface when it goes down.

Asian kobolds? So doggos?

 

[FGFlann]

I would never presume to tell asians that they must identify as kobolds. The underdark is a progressive society where all creatures are free to express their own racial identity and get eaten by giant spiders.

It's an alleged accusation in a lawsuit.

You do know in the US you can sue for anything right? Until the case is settled that link proves nothing but that The Post needs your clicks.

And that's ignoring the facts of what he supposedly said as a teacher because yet again the case isn't settled.

Edit: Just noticed your other links. Yes you have a list. Everyone has a list don't they? I don't see how Twitter racism factors into this and I was explaining someone else's opinion anyway.

And yet I don't really care how many links or lawsuits there are. You are missing the forest for the trees. Playing the victim is ridiculous for either side and yet here we are with everyone wanting to do it.

Also lawsuits don't always mean that that is what happened. People are pretty sure OJ killed a woman and they found him innocent.

Also in this age of fake news who are you tell me which stories I have to believe? I thought we all just get to ignore what doesn't fit our narrative nowadays.

Feel free to check out the 11 other links I posted in that message, as there weren't just one.

There are two reasons why someone wouldn't want to hire a white person: racism and the company has enough white people and they want to "look diverse". None of these reasons are fair and you should be ashamed for belittling such a serious problem just because you haven't experienced it.

There are far more than two reasons to not hire a white person. The fact that you think there only two reasons not to hire a person based on their race alone demonstrates your way of thinking.

Sometimes white people just aren't good at something.

As for the links please read my edit above. I am allowed to express my opinion about societal issues despite your SJW Attitude. Sad!!!!!

Now look here I am not saying that the “white man” has not have had privilege of been the position of superiority over other races I’m not saying that at all no far from it yes it has happened fathers have done that not the sons I have lost positions due to the fact of being male because it was better for the company in the eyes of the media have more women in management so even after I signed the paperwork position was taken away given to a female just so they could look good with the media. Now yes they have been a sense of privilege white, that does not mean that racism does not apply to white people racism still racism regardless of colour yes white people in the past the powerbrokers moneymakers politicians have had their way not justifying it but with all animal species and humans are of an animal species there is always a leader of the Pack and now the leader has been knocked off the perch, a new leader will emerge but at this stage everybody is fighting with everybody and of course the most hated is gonna be the old leader ,discriminating against anyone on the basis of colour regardless of there colour black or white is still racism, yes in the past the white man has done at the most of that, just the way nature worked there always have to be a top dog of the pack. Not my fault not your fault some dickheads fault 300 years ago come in trenched in culture and life is the way it always has been now that is changing changing for the good but before the change gets there there will be ups and downs just the way it works so yes there will be anger against the old guard the old guard will get angry against the new upcoming contenders, sins of the fathers are given to the sons even if the sons have done nothing, but you will most likely have your righteous point of view to come back with and you k ow what that is fine absolutely fine just keep in mind that not all sons turn out like there fathers just because they are of the same colour to think that’s is. That’s racist. Every generation gonna have its good and bad and idiots it’s just that nine out of ten times the idiots and the bad are the loudest

Your source is almost as old as me.

Averages shouldn't be used to justify individual cases of discrimination in any case. This entire exchange is silly. I shouldn't have to point out the irony of supporting an assertion by implying other assertions aren't good enough.

That is probably the dumbest source you could have used to prove a point, especially if you're not trying to come across as racist yourself. While that may be a general rule, hiring takes place on a case-by-case basis, and even if we assume that the score gap is valid there will always be white people at the bottom end and black people at the top end for any given open position. Trying to assert that "a black person stole a job that I, a white person, was more qualified for due to my whiteness" (not what you said, granted, but definitely what you're implying) is not only asinine but the pinnacle of non-violent racism

That was posted in reply to "Sometimes white people just aren't good at something.". All I did was proving that the other way around is true. And somehow this is racist. Ok. Nevermind that I'm the only one posting sources.

It's not actually proof of that though, what you're posting is an average of scores across a range, and TotalInsanity4 is correct when he says that people of different races will exist at both the top and bottom end of the curve, regardless of the overall average. A top end person from race a is obviously going to be preferential to a middle to low end person from race b. Regardless of race b's overall average score being higher.

... You do realize, again, they were referring on an individual basis, correct? And you're not going to also say that every white person is unilaterally better at every job than any other ethnic group, right?
