raumdeuter:LoLz. No feather weight that's not my logic, that's the caricature you conjured in the empty space that replaced your thinking capacity. If CURRENT employees are getting compensation in 2026 it means any discrimination they faced remained unresolved even while they were in active service ie they continue to experience the effects of whatever discriminatory actions were taken against them. Wrap that around that empty space between your ears. |

GracieX3:Shows you don't understand what you posted. You saw numbers, no understanding of what it entails, especially when you are arguing in the context of per capita. |

benalvino3:Per capita indeed. You extrapolated raw numbers that you didnt understand. Abeg, continue denying racism like your uncle ruckus hero- Officer Tatum...... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C5nHjgAkSCA&t=50s |

GracieX3:You are doubling down on your nonsense reasoning. Blacks are 13.5% of the population, yet they represent 26% in your data. White's are 56%... From this point, try to use your brain and reason, help yourself. |

LordReed:Your logic is not logical Anyone can get compensated in 2026 for an offence that happened 5, 10, 20, 30yrs or 40yrs ago |

The left are the most retarded people on earth When it's time to take covid vaccine, they will trust the science, but when it's time to identify male and female, they will trust their emotions

Ishilove:Ishi, it's far more complex than even that. Here in UK, blacks of Carribbean descent view and experience racism different to us from Nigeria, in lots of cases, and even many Nigerian Brits' views' differ to those of many JapaNigerians too. Golly! Two JapaNigerians can have different views of racism. I think it's because of different past experiences. I'd be more tuned to, or at least have a different view of racism if an ancestral ma had been defiled by massa who chained and whipped pa to work massa field, or fought the race wars of the 70-80s that got us where we can say that institutional racism still exists but it's a lot less than it used to be; than someone who flew first class on BA in 2026. Issue in this thread is some saying somes' shoes is invalid despite knowing they are valid, is my think. Like, my feet don't hurt much so it don't count that some walked while I flew.

raumdeuter:You just cement the fact that you are clueless about what systemic racism is. You think it's an event? LoLz. |
| Re: American Politics Thread: 2026 Midterm Elections Live! by budaatum: 9:11am On Aug 06 |
raumdeuter:There do not need to be laws or institutions that intentionally discriminate based on race for racism to be institutional. An organisation just needs to have enough racists influencing in it to be institutionally racist. Examples are our own Metropolitan Police in a country that had laws against racism yet was institutionally racist because of the racism of many of it's members and the way it hired potential police people. Thankfully, DEI has put a severe dent in the institutional racism of the Metropolitan Police. That said, there is indeed systemic racism in USA. Too many USAnians are racist for racism not to be systemic there, which is why USA needs DEI. And no, DEI does not mean lowering the entry standards for minorities, but just promoting the opportunity and encouraging minorities to join since there's obviously enough minorities who far exceed the minimum entry criteria. |

benalvino3:The per capita fallacy is strong with you. Not everything can be extrapolated to per capita. For instance, meth trafficking occurs heavily in specific parts of the USA and so, you cant extrapolate the total figures or percentages it to per capita across races in the whole nation. Worse, is that per capita skews the perfomance of smaller groups (making them larger than they really are) when there is a huge disparity Keep denying racism.

LordReed:The problem with you is severe ignorance and allergy to reading. The screenshot you posted if you rea the article gave you clues but like with ignorant people you missed it since putting things in writing makes it inaccesible to you |

budaatum:Define systemic racism in your own terms |
| Re: American Politics Thread: 2026 Midterm Elections Live! by GracieX3(f): 1:08pm On Aug 06 |
Benalvino3, ramdeuter, basilico, It is clear why you people are MAGA. You hate facts, truth and reality. So studies and research can show systemic and institutional racism but you people will still deny it. Please, why are your anecdotes more important than professional research? |
| Re: American Politics Thread: 2026 Midterm Elections Live! by LordReed(m): 3:00pm On Aug 06 |
raumdeuter:A feather weight like you shouldn't be pointing fingers. The article says there are CURRENT employees who were STILL experiencing the effects of the discrimination but here you are spilling rubbish from the empty space between your ears. |
| Re: American Politics Thread: 2026 Midterm Elections Live! by GracieX3(f): 3:19pm On Aug 06 |
raumdeuter:Of course, your definition is incomplete. It is not just laws- practices, policies, and customs too by people in government and institutions. If 40% of a police department is racist, then the department itself is racist. A law is only as good as its enforcement. A police department's policy could be to stop suspicious vehicles during the day, which is a good policy. However, a racist department will enforce that policy by seeing blacks or african american as suspicious. Can you see how a normal policy has been executed in a racist way...a systemic racist way?

LordReed:You are too uneducated to read and understand which is why the left keeps using your head from the article you took a screenshot, when was the lawsuit filed? |
| Re: American Politics Thread: 2026 Midterm Elections Live! by LordReed(m): 3:47pm On Aug 06 |
GracieX3:There are none so blind as those who will not see. ICE is literally enforcing a systematically racist policy but to these D I M W I T S there is no systemic racism because they choose to be wilfully ignorant. |

And….just like that MAGA is now against healthy food. Just watch

| Re: American Politics Thread: 2026 Midterm Elections Live! by benalvino3: 4:26pm On Aug 06 |
GracieX3:Okay, using your standard, name one police department today that has been credibly documented as institutionally racist not merely a department with some racist officers or isolated incidents. Show the evidence that racism is embedded across its policies, practices, customs, and enforcement. Otherwise, you are simply assuming that individual prejudice automatically makes the entire institution racist. |

Very good. States should go after him as well. Florida lead the way.
