False Dichotomy Fallacy
Why is it either/or with this board and this nation? Why is it all or nothing on ideals, politics, and social issues?
When I first joined this board back in ‘06 I was far right and didn’t know sh*t about anything as I was 28 years old and full of sock moisturizer with zero brains. The older I got I read articles that pandered to both sides. I made good friends with Hispanics and AAs over the years and just listened to what they had to say. It took me a while to warm up to the idea of their plights as I thought it was a ‘woe is me’ mentality, but after very long internal thoughts of what they were saying I realized they were right.
Black people aren’t allowed to be upset in public like I can. The stigma is there. I can walk into an establishment and be upset and hardly get noticed. Swap me out for a black dude and it’s a completely different ballgame. Black Lives Matter is an important t movement and I’m behind it. Am I 100% behind it? Absolutely not. I’m not for saying “f*ck the police”, rioting, looting, and defunding the police. But I am for removing the oppression that is clearly there. I am for justice for all police brutality cases. Nobody should be afraid of the police and everyone should be able to express themselves in public and draw the same kind of attention.
It’s ok to agree with certain things on the other side. This isn’t an either/or situation. There’s a middle ground.

Re: False Dichotomy Fallacy
Bullshit.
Is there racism?
Yes and it’s on all sides and if you want to be honest about it, you’ll see that blacks tend to be more prejudiced towards other groups. Just ask Petey Bootyfudge. Blacks shut his ass down because they still won’t vote for a dude that likes teh cask.
BLM isn’t about saving BLs. If it was, it would support cops who’s job it is to keep things civil where the overwhelming majority of BLs meet their end, almost always at the hands of another black dude.
Are there still people who look at blacks differently than they do others?
Sure. Just ask Jesse Jackson.
We all do it whether we want to admit it or not. And as long as people like George Floyd are held up as martyrs, this won’t change. He was a lifelong violent criminal with a bad drug habit.
So Coogs, be honest, what brought this change in you?
You’re gettin’ a little brown sugar, aincha ?
If you are, rack you, my man!!!!!

No. He did not.
Police brutality is still a thing. Unionized public servants that don’t give a fukk about their bosses (the public) remains a problem.
But the charade of “systemic racism” is just that. And you “progressives” know it, but you also know that you need to keep balck dude pissed off at the evil systemic racist republicans.
Heaven forbid you be for things like school choice which would give poor black parents an opportunity to give their kids decent educations to escape poverty.

Re: False Dichotomy Fallacy
All lives matter. As soon as you start adding qualifiers it starts going off the rails.
Why does BLM as a movement focus on the very few cops/whIte killings of blacks and ignore the huge number of balck on balck killings? Why does BLM not talk about the balck babies that are aborted? So even within the BLM movement some lives apparently matter more than others.
As a result of BLM we got Blue Lives Matter, to recognize law officers killed in the line of duty. This then led to clashes that supporting one meant you didn’t support the other. Of course you could and should support both, but to many that isn’t possible.

It's about state sponsored murder, you got forsaken nimrod. That is why they aren't discussing the racist meme of balck on black crime.
Wake up already.

Re: False Dichotomy Fallacy
I said I didn’t agree with all of it, but there is an issue with the system. Of course racism is a two way street, but with the blacks and whites the history of racism runs way longer on one side. And we’re 70% of the nation vs 13% for AAs. I’ve been discriminated against by a group of black coworkers and did not feel good, but I surely wasn’t oppressed by their actions. It barely scratched the surface. I’m a white American male AND I’m over 6’ tall. I can’t even be discriminated against on tinder because I’m tall.

And there's no worldwide bullshit propaganda movement.
9 unarmed blacks were shot last year. 5 of which were justified.
Every 48 hours, officers are murdered, with many many more shot and wounded for life.

You really are a mentally ill sick fuck.
Are there some drug related murders? Sure.
But you justify black and brown rapes and murders by calling them drug and poverty related?
Justify black criminals because of racism and poverty?
You need serious psychological help. ASAP
The vast majority of black crime, just like the vast majority of white crime, is due to mentally disturbed criminals.
Color or race has nothing to do with criminal behavior.
Before blacks came to these shores, there was plenty of rape assaults, torture murder etc...for centuries in Africa.
You are so fucking sick to justify criminal behavior. Regardless of race, criminal behavior is criminal behavior.
For you to chalk up black crime to poverty and racism? Exposes you as the mentally disturbed sick fuck we've always known you to be.
How many poverty stricken whites can blame their crimes on their pathetic existence?
Millionaire OJ Simpson sliced off the heads of two whites due to oppression.
Bill cosby raped young woman due to oppression.
Kobe Bryant raped a beautiful young woman because he was a victim of oppression.
Criminals come in all colors.
Just like stupid disturbed fucks like you come in all colors.

Re: False Dichotomy Fallacy
Oh the boomer hater card comes out. Epic. Blame it all on them. You fucking putz.
Millennials could give a fuck about anything that does not directly impact their day to day existence. I have 5 millennial kids. They have told me they could care less about all this race bullshit, and political bickering. Most of them don't vote, the only care that they can have the best of every thing before they are forty and bitch and complain when they cannot get it right away. Kind of like you when you brag about all the pussy you supposedly are shagging every night.
Millennials have to fit it with certain behaviors and demographics in order to be part of the in crowd. Their work situations and peer associations have more to do with their political bent than any kind of belief system or even remote understanding of the political system.
Everything will be just fine when the Boomers and X's are gone, they are the blockade to any kind of racial peace and understanding. Millennials will solve the worlds problems. You are just a complete fucking troll ass idiot.

Not sure this is a good place to ask your questions as few here are interesting in intellectual discovery.
The middle ground you refer to is substantial in this country. The silent majority? perhaps.
The resistance to change comes from those threatened by it. They think they'll lose some privilege or power they perceive they have.
It's not necessarily the young ones who believe in change, but time will more things forward.

It’s tendency is towards corruption and incompetence.Kierland wrote:There is nobody here from the right who can articulate just what is so great about their side.

That being the case, we should give them as little control as is practicable.
I will grant you that many that espouse that theory don’t practice it.
And one thing that government should do is enforce the laws on the book.
You fukking libs want tons of laws but won’t back the people charged to enforce them.

Is this all George Soros, Antifa, and liberal chaos? I’m well aware of the propaganda and the fear mongering. All that is is noise.
But before any of this happened, I observed four black guys (all over 50) having a conversation about how they tell their sons that when the police pull you over just be respectful no matter how small the reason they pulled you over. Say “yes sir”, say “no sir” and “thank you”. They spoke out of fear and these are pretty sharp and successful guys. One guy told me he bought his son a nice truck and he put 26s on it. Said after he put those wheels and tires on the truck he was pulled over 9 times in less than three months and never got a ticket for anything, because he was completely innocent if wrong doing. But he fit a profile.

Re: False Dichotomy Fallacy
See that is a perfect example. It sounds like you get it, but you call this knee jerk. Dude lots of people have given this a lot of thought AND implementation. It’s been 400 years just in the US and Plato was talking about it thousands of years ago.
You just think that way because it’s new to you so it seems knee jerk.
You can dip your toe in if you want, that is better than nothing I guess but the water is not going to burn or freeze you.
And I’m a criminal defense atty so I have seen the (Spoiled) sausage being made. It ain’t pretty.

Re: False Dichotomy Fallacy
No I get it. It is a knee jerk reaction and a shame parade. Look, we f*cked up and didn’t get this right when crime and drugs were out of control in the 80s and early 90’s. The crime bill was enacted and although it was executed well in reducing crime, nobody thought to spend the same amount of money in community outreach to keep a bunch of fatherless children off the streets. And also, that crime bill gave way too much judicial power and there were insane sentences being handed out to minorities. That is the oppression. It’s not just the cops. It’s the system. We live in a judicial system and not a justice system. But let’s cancel Paw Patrol. That’ll show them.

Re: False Dichotomy Fallacy
So again you sound like you get it but you still call it knee jerk. How much longer do you want to wait to dismantle the system you seem to understand is a shame?
I looked up Paw Patrol and it sounds like it was a TV show so a business cancelled it. I don’t know why but if it depicts the old model of policing then yes it needs to go because it normalizes that model to, apparently, kids. You can’t normalize and reform a behavior at the same time.

Re: False Dichotomy Fallacy
You can’t persuade entrenched beliefs by doing the same thing over and and over again. And Kap didn’t help with his protest. That created division even though the message was strong.
