basilico: You never responded to his giving Zelensky javelin fire and forget missiles while Obama sent Ukraine blankets ,canned beef and googles . Germany and NATO are smarting from his efforts to end the Ukraine war , refusing to join the Straits of Hormuz project. Why bother having NATO when it cannot help at the hour of need.
There is a bigger game here. NATO was created as a bulwark against RUSSIA - primarily. And now, it is being weakened for RUSSIA.
tctrills: Ok, calm your nerves, my child. Luckily for you, I have the entire transcript, so it's easy to find out who the lying soul is. Here, Kirk answered the question "The disappearance of the black father has been the number 1 cause of black poverty." Note, he never said giving equal rights to blacks is the cause of the problem. I'll post the entire video. It is long, but I will leave the important timestamps.
Timestamp, from 1.19.00 till the end This s should end the argument. You should learn not to lie these days. Everything is online these days. I believe someone sent you that little extract and you ran with it like the kid you are, without seeking to learn more. Please try to watch 10 minutes of the video and then admit you were wrong.
Thank you for wasting my time. I watched as requested (and it's a repeated watch by the way) and I remain right. You just enjoy flinging around falsehood. I quoted him verbatim and properly in context as the video shows (because I was watching when quoting the first time anyway). His remarks are exactly what I said they were and in context too. I dare you to point out my lie. You can't.
And oh, that young lady took him to the cleaners.
As an aside, his argument was also shallow. He is blaming absence of dads as a culture thing as though it's just genetically natural for black dads to disappear. There is a social-scientific reason for that and a historical reason and addressing that is where the real discussion is - and the young lady to her credit pointed that out to him.
Your arguments - all of you guys who parrot what he said - are just lazy and shallow and the evidence shows you are just repeating his argument without thinking at all.
Pitiful.
That ill fitting, Triangular, Disjointed And most accursed head -
IjeBos: Imagine Bemeruca who has 5 kids out of wedlock with 2 different women and who doesn't raise 4 of them(maybe all of them) talking about Black families staying together.
TV01: What wealth did Japanese Americans inherit? Or the Irish or Italian. The Nigerian or the Ghanaian nko?
Stay in school - to degree level if possible. Get gainfully employed. Get married, and be sure to do so before you have children. Simples. If relatively poor, there are all kinds of assistance, grants, awards and scholarships. Myriad programmes and DEI initiatives. It's actaually harder not to have a modicum of success. But love of grift and a propensity to lawlessness no go gree you !
tctrills: Wow so you are this smart. You understand that culture has a great part to play so do not act dumb when we say that black culture in America has gone completely insane.
How about I give you a better analogy.
How come, there was less black on black killings in the 40s when the blacks were much more poorer than today. Since you claim that the blacks are committing more crimes because they are poorer than the whites, the blacks in the 40s were many times more poorer than the blacks today so what change?
Statistically, the rate of Black-on-Black homicide and violent crime was significantly lower in the 1940s than it is today. I have given you the best analogy so let's hear your answer.
Talking about guns and gun laws, Chicago has tighter gun laws than Boise Idaho and is much richer, how come more crimes are committed in Chicago
What do you think is responsible for violence in black communities.
Please note that Kirk's answer from what I quoted apparently was the fact that blacks now have equal rights. What is your answer.
Also tell me what exactly has gone insane with black culture in America.
raumdeuter: Excuses are like shoe sizes you will always find one that fits. There are places with worse climate, worse Geography, worse of all these and they managed to get beyond them
If you are hell bent on blaming what happened to your ancestors 200yrs ago then you will likely not come out of it
You are so ignorant of the topic that you don't even know that worse climate of certain kinds actual triggers development.
This subject is beyond you.
Let me ask you. Why do you think Africa is behind. What is your own explanation?
raumdeuter: What is holding Ethiopia back?. Note they were never colonized
The factors that have stymied the development of African nations are many and there is complex history and science to it. The factors include climate, geography, and all of the events of history including wars, trade, plagues and pandemics, flora and fauna, chance and many many more.
It's a huge subject and there is substantial academic work on it.
But the problem is that you lot are thoughtless and anti intellectual. Because for you lot the answer is simply that blacks are inferior and lazy and victims.
Dtruthspeaker: Not even when the Bible made it clear that God was so happy and proud of w job that He was using Job to boast and prove to Satan that job could beat him?
Which father does not do that? Why else do children enter competitions?
A father enters into a bet and allows the children of his son to be killed enmasse to win the bet?
tctrills: Are you sure? Then explain why Memphis, Tennessee has a much higher violent crime rate than Acrra.
You guys keep excusing foolish behaviour in blacks or blaming it on whites. It's ok to take responsibility.
This is a terrible analogy. You need to compare apples for apples. You cannot just take one city with a totally different culture and mixture of people, history and social interaction and draw a comparison with a city half way around the world, the capital of an African country and then say aha!
What is wrong with you people. How would it sound to you if I took Chicago and compared its crime rate to Abuja's? For heavens sake. You didnt even stop to consider the prevalence of guns under the gun laws of one country as opposed to the very different scenario in another country. The right thing to do would be to compare violent crime among the social classes in each city itself.
And drop this nonsense about taking responsibility. We are more than up to that. The problem is that as far as you are concerned white people must not be held responsible for anything whatsoever!
tctrills: You always have a way of coming to the wrong conclusion. So if I say that the whites in America should return to saner times when there were much less white on white killings, would that also be racist or is it only racism when we tell it to the blacks.
Anyway, let's look at some stats Below are the Victimization Rate per 100,000 people for blacks and whites respectively 21.3 3.2 Your blacks murder themselves at a 7x rate.
It is quite normal and understandable that violent crime is typically higher among the poorer demographic anywhere in the world.
raumdeuter: We have people who were decimated by wars, famine and almost extinction who pulled themselves up and made something for themselves, Its almost every part of human race that share such story,
raumdeuter: List the rights a black person growing up in America in 2026 is denied of that other races have
Here again you fail to understand that just as wealth is inherited, poverty is inherited and for that reason alone it will take generations to even things out after centuries of unspeakable discrimination, economic marginalization of the worst kind and all. So its not a simple question of saying "what rights are they denied today?" That is terribly simplistic and even you should know better than that.
Everyone Every set of human can point to a time in the past when bad terrible things happened to them. Whether war famine slavery persecution etc
They all picked themselves up
Civil rights act was signed about 70yrs ago, how many of these youths killing themselves ever experienced slavery
But permanent victims will go back to a time when their mom wasnt born to justify being victims today
TV01: TV is never vulgar . I suspect you have mod permissions and employ them to hide posts you find hurty !
Not all black issues stem from the "centuries of discrimination, segregation, prejudice and economic marginalization". Further, using that as a fig leaf to hide behind and a cosh to ward off scrutiny harms black families. As do other social pathologies, especially amongst FBAs. For many black and non-FBA blacks, this whole discrimination\raycist bag is typically a grifters charter.
Nope, I don;t need a course in languishing in victimhood, growing an insufferable entitlement or refusing to take charge and map my own destiny with everything I have - stand or fail. People are short, broke, disabled, crippled, blind, barren, orphans, living in war-torn countries and challenged in all manner of ways. What is it?
Every group or community of people have at some point in history suffered setbacks, marginalisation or wide-scale trauma. Making those experiences your habitation will only have a compounding effect.
Similar to individual relationships. Have a bad one? Ok, pick yourself up, dust yourself down and get on with life. If you choose to become a misandrist or misogynist and spend all your time wailing about how wicked the opposite sex are, that's your baggage. At some point, no one will care, and no one will want to hear it. Free will bro .
TV
The way you people use the word "victimhood" is sad because you deploy it to effectively throw away any and all real issues of systemic marginalization. There is a quote from Martin Luther King where he describes exactly how black people had been economically deprived and strangulated in the US and wound up pointing out how it is a very bad joke to say to a bootless man that he should pull himself up by the bootstraps. Especially when those saying it were given massive advantages such as free land by the Federal Government to get them going.
You just have no clue what you are talking about and its sad and painful to see ignorant folk like you speak the way you do about a matter that has cost the deepest pain, blood, torture and grief to so many. Its insensitive, callous and shallow. But ever worse when it comes from black men like you.
basilico - Trump has said he will reduce the American military presence in Germany. I keep telling you to watch out for the outcomes only to understand his role as a Russian asset.
