It’s complicated, but they are highly similar of a micro and macro level. Fascism the ideology means the combining of industry, media, and government into one entity driven largely by racial identity. If you want to look at what industry, media, and government combining looks like, think covid pandemic (and that was done by the left). Even in the micro level, black clad masked people shouting down free speech and using violence to intimidate political opponents…

It happens quite a bit, but I was only commenting on what you advocated.
Fyi, just because I said there are far too many vocal racist African Americans does not mean there are a lot.
My tiktok feed is mostly compromised of black creators so that is what I see the most, content from black people.
There were some analytics done on I think twitter that showed it as a larger trend.
I didn’t mean to imply that there were a lot, just that the impact would be disproportionate.

I am so tempted to leave a stupid response to this question like “Your mother”
But in all seriousness no one honestly.
I think this will solidify their beliefs.
It seems the people that have influence over others are generally people that others like.
I remember reading about a black guy from the south that made friends with the KKK. He showed them by his actions that they weren’t right about black people. 200 of his friends left the KKK.

That’s also a principle in Dale Carnegies “How to win friends and influence people”

Do you think this would fix things? Say a white guy was racist towards blacks, so a black guy beats him up. The white guy then thinks blacks people suck, they’re violent and I was right about every negative thing I ever thought about them. His feelings are reinforced and he now has real life experience that he thinks proves him right.
Does that seem productive?
And because we’ve talked about it before, you’re just not going to apply any of the teachings of Christ to your views?

(He is black. I think a few posters in this thread have not been aware of that.)
@jshaving I wasn’t. So I’ll take back my statement. Referring to content by black creators as what he sees, and not offline experience gave me the impression he wasn’t.
@tlgains Sorry about that.
Maybe the big baby who wants to troll and make accusations of racism shouldn’t have brought her up in the first place.
I was completely joking with that, my mother awesome and so is my dad.
If you check out my log, you’ll see snippets of me bragging about my college accomplishments, I am making them VERY proud and I’m proud of myself.
I thought he was just gay.
I doubt your college will be bragging about you.
They set the bar low it seems.
Maybe not, but the chairperson of my major does.
I don’t care.
Alright, I think it’s time to cool it with the back and forth personal attacks.
Let’s get back to an actual discussion.

Holy crap this thread blew up haha.
However, men who behave like women have been despised for thousand of years too. A chunk of Americans don’t want to go by concerns or feelings that existed for thousands of years
The difference is in the bathroom example, there’s the risk of a woman getting physically harmed. No one is getting physically harmed by looking at a guy in a dress haha. We have to pick and choose what traditions/“feelings that have existed for thousands of years” we keep.
Terms like, “acting like a bitch,” “don’t be a p—,” and “man up” came from somewhere. So did discouraging men from crying “like a girl” and “tough love.”
My guess is that they’re proxies, just like how most “signs of evolutionary fitness” people look for are. For example, the theory that taller men are more selected in dating because being taller is an advantage in a fight. Since it’s impossible to tell how someone will perform in a fight without seeing it happen, men are selected for height since it’s a reliable proxy.
A guy who cries a lot and likes acting/dressing girly is more likely to be weaker and cowardly. Anecdotally, you see this all the time, so it makes sense that “effeminate behavior” in men is seen as a negative trait for fighting and physical labor. However, these proxies completely fall apart on the individual level. What if the crying guy in a dress can kick everyone’s ass haha? Mike Tyson in a dress can’t be effeminate because he’s Mike Tyson. If @creative_name can suplex a guy making fun of him for wearing pink, then the other guy is the effeminate one in the situation haha.

Pay attention to their actions, the word antifa is a disguise, but their actions are opposite to the word meaning
i agree, enough of the derailing, apologize to the narrator of the subject line

It’s worth noting that one of the tenants of the extreme left is newspeak. Manipulating words by using them with the exact opposite meaning is a literal tenant of the far left.
