That’s one of the best posts I’ve ever read in the PWI forum.

I am actually a member of the Cherokee tribe - clan Aniwahya descendants.
My grandparents on my mom’s side were both born on the reservation. People always get quiet very quickly with that response on top of me being half Cherokee by blood when trying to spread the “white man bad - white man evil conquerors” bullshit.

On a related note, several times I’ve been at the Thanksgiving dinner table with a particular family member who speaks of the mean white guys who “stole”
this land. I’ve several times asked him and others after they start such a conversation, “Apparently you think stealing is wrong. So why do you continue to reside on stolen land? Why not leave?”
I never get an answer.

I can relate to this a whole lot. I’m usually expected to think a scripted and expected way because I’m Jewish.

I bet this new jagoff isn’t even going to offer an apology for usurping your right to express yourself from your own unique perspective.

False outrage over nothing is real with these types of people.
I just tell them I am taking the land back a few hundred acres at a time. Then I usually ask them if they will sell me their land and house at 10 cents on the dollar to repent for their ancestors’ crimes.
They never bite on that either.
Yes sir, haha. I am the worst person to think is going to adhere to a script or ethnic line that is put forward by somebody not of that culture or ethnicity.

I am owed an apology and some of their stuff - for free.

Yep. Dude treated you like the subject-du-jour so that he could bloviate and virtue signal at your expense.
If thats not subjugation for the sake of vanity, I don’t know what is?

We should do some cross training on this intersectional wokeology stuff.
Start smacking them with the same stick they’ve been swinging for way too long.
We would give them PTSD and be big meanies.
Yeah, you’re right.
Plus it would take away all of the fun of watching them make up new words and grievances in order to prop up their fragile, pampered, bottle fed egos.

out of curiosity, how do you think WorkSmart even came across this site? I always wonder things like that. How this forum would even come up in a search for someone who clearly has no interest in weightlifting or anything that the site is really about.

I’ve often wondered that myself.
Only thing I could come up with is recurring troll. Someone, former poster or banned, who just gets a kick out of making new accounts and pushing peoples buttons.

This is pretty funny, but I don’t actually think it’s true. This website doesn’t come up when you google ‘testosterone’, or ‘testosterone men’, or ‘testosterone bad men’, etc. I tried a handful of searches to test this theory lol. Doesn’t seem to check out. you pretty much have to include weightlifting or bodybuilding in your search to find this site with a google search, as far as I can tell. And actually, including the word ‘testosterone’, in some instances, pushed this site down in my search. It came up higher in my search result for ‘weightlifting website’ vs ‘testosterone weightlifting’.
I clearly have too much time on my hands.

It just gave me a massive wedgie. All part of Disneys evil plan, no doubt.

I have never gotten answers from such people for my questions for them.
I do not have the patience, time, or energy to go over all of them here, but if Work or others wants to answer some here, so be it.
-
Work mentioned black slavery by white people. Why do others like Work never or seldom mention who else had their hands in the Atlantic Slave trade?
-
Why is there little or no mention of others enslaving blacks, including Turks, other blacks, and Arabs?
-
Why is there no sympathy for white slaves taken by Arabs and Turks, in many cases as sex slaves, or as forced laborers and indentured servants in the Caribbean?
-
Who stopped taking slaves before others did? Where is slavery still done currently (it is)?
-
Progressive policies and programs have been at work for sixty years and have required billions of dollars and work hours. Just when are they going to bring about the intended results? If little progress has been made, can we rightly call “progressivism” inefficient or wasteful? What more results do you want?
-
Why was the nuclear black-family unit in better shape and why were there less black-on-black crime and social problems amongst them before such programs and policies and popularized liberal attitudes? (@twojarslave has previously spoken about this.)
-
Work and others have claimed that blacks are sentenced to prison for profit, and only them. Where is the proof for this?
I’ve casually looked into “mass incarceration” in the past. And I think I’ve correctly remembered some things, though I might be mistaken.
The prison population increased enormously from the 1930’s to the 1990’s, by about a factor of ten while the population only about doubled, and the black population by a percentage of the population didn’t significantly increase in that time. Which means whites had an enormous increase. The white and black prison populations doubled from 1985 to 1995. I haven’t looked into more recent figures but I wouldn’t be surprised if the percentage of white inmates increased since, considering that white communities have more social problems than some other racial or ethnic groups in America.
A typical response for the increase in the 80s to 90s is that crack flooded black communities? OK, that was part of it. But what caused the increase in white law breakers? Why are whites experiencing increasingly more social problems?
If blacks were and are sent to prison for profit, is it only whites who are justly sent to prison, generally speaking?
If I have anything wrong here, those who know history and such stats better than I do can correct me. But the overall gist of my questions stand and I ask them sincerely. As I’ve said repeatedly, I’m not into silly mind games or online antagonism. If Work or another leftist poster answers them I’ll appreciate it, even if I can’t wrap my head around the answers.

I agree that in general they fail to bring the intended results. I don’t necessarily agree that they are inefficient or wasteful. I don’t disagree, but there is the possibility that things would be worse. I don’t really see a way to sort it out TBH. Maybe there is an isolated area that didn’t get progressive policy over that period? Looking there would be a good measuring stick assuming that area was also similar in other ways.

Most of questions 1-7 can be answered with “because it doesn’t divide people enough to acknowledge that every color of people was at some point enslaved”.
Also, number 5 is because most ‘progressive’ policies are enacted under the guise of helping people. Regardless of the track record (RE outcomes) of policies to provide ‘help’, they still have my blind support because I’m a good human.
^In reality, these programs were always designed to create control of a group of people under the pretense of ‘help’. There’s a reason that most ethnicities have a near 50/50 split of red vs blue voters, but the black populace is a near monolithic bloc at 90% blue. You have to ask the question “why?”.
