It's sad and shameful we have black people here who's ancestral history was shaped by colonialism and racism hold water for white supremacists because of hate in their hearts, not that they gain financial or material benefit from the rubbish and jargons they type here.

But just check this out, in 2021 an elected council member can openly say a racist word, not implying anything, but blatantly speaking the disgusting racist word.

And some idiots here say there's no need to teach Americans about the racist past so everyone can come to a reckoning about race and make things better than it is.

The idiocy of these coons are so blatant that they mixed up everything by saying all African Americans says that african lives in a hut with no electricity. How do you generalize with that stupid statement when you do not know all African Americans. If i say that to the unpaid cultists here, do i represent almost 50 million Black Americans. Another fallacy is the Wikipedia idiot saying african Americans all says that Whites are holding them down. I do not blame the fool who never step out of Nigeria but knows how African Americans feel and think in America. How can Blacks in America say that we are being held down by Whites and at the same time being the richest and the most successful Black group in the world. I really give a lot of credit to Buddhaman, Ibime and our other guys engaging these guys that do not know what the fcvk they are talking about. I leave them to continue carrying the Nazi banners. Hope they have gotten their White Privilege Card from Appalachia too.

Buddha loves talking, I can see it through her posts, kudos to her.
But these cultists need to understand the HISTORY of racism and how it has permeated the institutions of not only America but major Western nations. Instead of relying on semantics and discussing racism like we discusing Thermodynamics why not talk about it's History and boil it down to today?
Seems they just discussing rubbish without bringing the long history of racism into the discussion.
And that is very disingenuous.

I did that to these folks but like the three blind monkeys they neither cared to read or understand but instead called it a copy paste and proceed to look for someone to massage their ego.

Only fools deny history and look away from what it has done to our present and how it will affect our future. Period.

These Nazi loving loudmouths know nothing but says alot. Not single one of these Coons ever lived or work with Whites but they will denigrate people that have spent their lives living with racism and succeeding despite the systemic racism that's imbedded in Western Countries. I will give you examples of what i meant by systemic racism. My wife and i bought our 1st house about 23 years ago and we only have few remaining months to pay off our mortgage. We have five rental properties (three flats) that we got mortgages on and we lease it out. We can go to our Chase Bank and with our credit scores being close to 800, i can assure you we will not get a favorable rate compared to a White Man with similar credit score. That applies with Car loans too and commercial loans. Another systemic racism is that i am always packing with my Glock on my body with my FOI Card in my wallet. God forbids i get stopped in my vehicle or walking down the street, that encouter might ends my life but opposite will be done to a White Man even if the White man is a crack addicted alcoholic. These Coons just throw alot of trash out there to make themselves smart but they end up looking like fools they are especially talking about a culture they only know in their dreams. Just gave those two or three examples and i can give more but these loudmouths says a lot of things that are false and their brothers in coonery love give them their desired likes like that will make them rich.

What you are seeing in this thread is the typical Nigerian 'I too know' behavior especially with it comes to issues of blacks Americans, black Americans who fought through several decades of segregation, civil rights protests to get where they are today are called people with victim mentality by Nigerians who have never fought for anything in their lives, you see why I won't engage in this madness?

They all have hot takes on Black Americans but place them on same situation they won't act differently I can assure you 100%, and the lack of incuriousity that makes them join in attacking CRT with same people who will proudly fly Confederate flags, they won't forget 9/11 and teach it school along with Pearl Harbor attacks and other tragedies, Goodvibes post some good picture illustration today that perfectly describes what's happening.

They are there focused on CRT meanwhile the new Texas bill will remove writings of some civil right movements icons like MLK, let's agree teaching CRT is bad, what's the problem with accomplishments of civil rights movements?

Have you ever seen these Coons telling Jews to forget the horrors of pogrom unleashed on them by Hitler and his henchmen when 6 million jews were cremated alive in various ovens in Poland and Germany. Now the racist loudmouths in America wants us to forget the history of slavery that exterminated tens of millions of Africans and the resultant effects of Jim Crowism which led to civil rights in America. These nazi bootlickers will call Dr Martin Luther King Jnr and his able lieutenants vile names if they are alive today. Like you said before, walk in my shoes for a block and feel how it pinches. They can sit in their caves with their Made in China Cheap Phones and N200 data and become Google and Wikipedia lords.

You nailed it Goodvibes. Republicans did exactly the same thing while they controlled the Congress. What makes them special that they can do it and Speaker Pelosi can't. Jim Jordan might be deposed by the special commission anyway because of his alliance and utterances that led to the attempted overthrow of our government on Jan 6th. The right thing was for Speaker Pelosi to kick Jordan out and she did. I am glad this inquiries will go on for months and 2022 will be a banner year for the Democrats. Bigotry, Racism, Xenophobia and Misogyny doesn't sell in America any more.

Are you working towards an answer or she want only specific people who only agree with her? She already has about 12 people who likely agree with her, why cant she accomodate 2 people who do not

Anyway McCathy has withdrawn his reps, she will likely go ahead with the commission and the outcome will be discredited since it didn't have those from the GOP

And where does that leave us with the January 6 incident? Nothing. An opportunity to get to the root of January 6 and find out the sponsors and other facts that will ensure it never happens again get wasted on the altar of partisanship

Those GQP never wanted the committee or any investigation of the January 6 incident to begin with.

It's good those Insurrectionists were kicked out. They were selected by Trump's lackey (McCarthy) to be cogs in the wheel. Good riddance. Cheers to the Speaker.

Wetin consign you inside? Is Jan 6th not worthy of a show, and why are you holding brief for McCarthy?

Was McCarthy not one of the insurrectionists who voted not to certify? Furthermore he wants to nominate two cultists who voted to overturn the election to the panel.

Jan 6th was a sickening assault on democracy, and somehow the GQP want to make a.mockery of the investigation, and you are here holding brief.

What's worse is that right wing media has now programmed you to not see anything disgusting in the downplaying of that incident by the nomination of insurrectionists to oversee the panel. Is it not the same lie the two nominees continuously expounded that made those people to march on the Capitol?

This is the equivalent of nominating Sinn Fein to a panel investigating the crimes of the IRA.

They instigated those terrorists that invaded the Capitol by their words and deeds. There are montages of jan 6th debacle starting from Trump's speech leading to the events of 1/6. Senator Josh Hawley was giving the rioters an OK salute on his way to the chamber to vote and Jordan was a big part of Trump's lunacy of not agrreing to the results of the election. This Republican lunacy is goid for the Democrats in 2022 because everything is on tape and Americans will see the party of terrorism who wants to ovetthrow over 245 years of Democracy.

The sad part apart these Coons is that they are full of hate for African Americans that looks like them and they love the racist Pig that think of their ilks as subhuman mongrels. Any of these clowns can step in US and people will assume they are African Americans until they speak.

There are many questions unanswered from the January 6 insurrection that needs to be answered, Some people are still walking free today and a commission into it will unveil everything. These "cultists" are members of congress and were duly chosen by their party to partake in the investigation

January 6 was an assault on democracy and everything about the remote cause needs to be aired, there are sponsors and actors still walking free today
Do you really want a real inquiry so we can stop future occurrence or just to play to the gallery about January 6 so it becomes a charade?

What is wrong with Fox News or any news media? I watch both sides and make my deductions.

What is dangerous about hearing everyone. Its one of the beauties of democracy, everyone gets a hearing, their opinion gets out but the majority still carry the day

Whatever lie they told or believe still deserves to be heard.

It doesn't work like that. This is an assault on democracy and those who partook in the assault whether through the ballot or physically have no say in it. There are many Republicans who did not vote to decertify the election who could be nominated. Anything else would be a mockery.

Fox News has drifted way right since the election. They were already bad enough before the election. Taking views from "both sides" is actually ingesting poison at this point and it's starting to show in your viewpoints. Unfortunately I don't think America has a centre-right media where you can get solid views. So you have a choice to either become Independent or follow Fox News all the way down the rabbit hole.

A station like Fox will not even be tolerated by Conservatives in my country. Most people on this thread don't even know I'm a Conservative because their definition of Conservatism which they get from America is actually way out cültism and intolerance.

That is because you hear most American liberals who want to cry wolf at every opportunity. Everything is about the politics of winning the next election and for them right now keeping Trump in the news everyday is a winning strategy. I dont blame them for it that is why you need to discern your own truth

There are fake outrage from both sides, CNN and Fox are the channels close to the center on both sides and both still have their obvious biases As an intelligent person you will sieve through the chaff

I wont watch MSNBC neither will I watch OANN.

What is the other side of listening to both sides? You will rather be in the CNN and MSNBC echo chamber that believes there is a bogeyman killing people in every street corner or is it not the same America we live where different races and religion coexist peacefully despite pockets of extremists

On the Sport thread last week you were defending UK as not a racist country and shouldnt be characterized by the actions of a few thousands, Going by Social Media characterization post Euro, Someone outside the UK will think the racists rule over UK given their loud and viral tweets about the black players.

That is exactly the way America is. A few loud lunatics on both sides and majority sane people in the middle who just mind their business

FOX is nowhere close to the centre, that's the problem you have.

Then it would be better you follow Reuters, Financial Times and co if you think FOX are centrist.

I'm not in any echo chamber. My.main news source is Daily Mail which is considered right wing in UK. I don't read them particularly for their journalism but I like the convenience of their app. In the UK, Daily Telegraph is what you would call centre-right and The Independent is what you would call centre-left. Most UK residents would consider the paper I read way to the right but they are puppies compared to FOX.

95% of UK people will be offended if they come in your house and see you watching FOX.

Less i forget, Ivanka, Don Jnr, Eric and Mike Pence lost their Secret Service protection as of today making six months after the swearing in of President Biden. Good riddance to the mafioso family feeding high on the hogs being paid for by American taxpayers. Worthless grifting family. Your wing is waiting in Upstate New York penitentiary.

European Politics is different from American politics. Europe is much more left generally than America is.

Some consider CNN as extreme left, I do not, Some like you consider Fox as extreme right I do not. Both are left and right of center
There are many hosts on Fox who are right and normal, Not everyone is Sean Hannity
There was a reason Trump did not like half of the Fox analysts, Fox was one of the first stations to call Arizona for Biden, and some of their analysts were Biden leaning.

CNN had Santorum and Michael Steele, Fox has Donna Brazile and Gerrardo
You will not get that from an extreme station

Most Republicans have made peace with Biden winning the election and moved on, there will always be people who wont accept or believe whatever hits them in the face. When Trump Bush, Obama etc won there were some democrats who never accepted.That is why its a democracy every sane and lunatic get their say and the majority who are sane gets their way

Which Republicans have made peace with the result when those who accepted the results are getting primaried left, right and centre. At the same time, Republicans are ramping up authoritarianism and perfecting voter suppression tactics.

Let's not forget that Texas lawsuit where virtually every Republican State signed up as amicus. Republicans are finished as a decent party my friend. Even George Bush, Cheney and co have become powerless puppies in the party.
