This is a beautiful topic for discussion, yet outside the misc, if I tried to open up some of these controversies for discussion, I'd be silenced. Cancelled. Ok, so none of this is new, people can post up their clown pics and say 'what do you expect?' But I can't help but try and fight against the raging lack of critical thought on public issues these days. This is merely another example.

Cliffs (but article is a damn good read):
- black girl at fancy college uses her power privilege as a student to do what she wants (eat in a dorm while it's closed during summer)
- the area is empty except for her and a few working class staff - janitors, campus security
- she is approached by an unarmed campus security and an old janitor who just want to confirm her student status, since the only people who should be using the dorm/hall at that time are away (special summer classes)
- Ultimately, nothing harmful occurs, other than what this girl perceives as racism
- She chits on the school, on the workers, and the dean (or president, w/e)
- Old workers who have been there for decades are treated like chit, quit and lose their jobs, labeled as racist, can't find new jobs, etc.


On one hand, I would agree that black people experience a world with threats that are imperceptible to myself. There can be cause for alarm in situations that are otherwise harmless to myself. However, I believe there is a power element at play here, which is being leveraged and shielded by the black experience - which is beyond critique.

It seems like this girl is angry or afraid, and as a consequence, she's going to ruin other peoples' lives. And for what? To serve as an example of a black individual in america fighting cultural (systemic?) racism? And yet it's clear that by every measure, these people weren't being racist. No one was. People just going about their days, as some had done for 20+ years, handling situations by the book. The color of her skin was never an issue until she made it one.

Obey.

remember when pulling "the black card" was a joke? just fkn LOL @ it being legitimized now

Another "black man is bad" thread.

It'd be great if mods made a thread dedicated to blacks doing crime or pulling race related issues.

That's a pretty ugly spin / oversimplification. Groups are being marginalized left right and center. This isn't 'shame on black people,' it's 'where the fck is the critical thought??'

Fake news spreads faster than facts. We are doomed.

You know, it's going to end up being a fulfilling prophecy. All these people who claim there are racists everywhere will inevitably create more racists who feel that no matter what they do, they will be always be judged unfairly and without due process and that will just end up creating more hate and anger.

You're already on the defensive. Just look at the statement you made.

You've bought the lie already and are too scared of the power of cancellation to even have conviction. Quit being a loser and stand up to what is ridiculous.

If you think Im going to make an NY Times account to read that I have really bad news for you

Black Lives Matter

"Smith College officials emphasized “reconciliation and healing” after the incident. In the months to come they announced a raft of anti-bias training for all staff, a revamped and more sensitive campus police forceand the creation of dormitories — as demanded by Ms. Kanoute and her A.C.L.U. lawyer — set aside for Black students and other students of color."

Wow.I reckon we'll see either: a doubling-down on the university-borne identity politics "agenda", or a backlash against it as unrealistic an intractable with modern life.And there you have it, Ms. Kanoute missing the forest for the trees.

And you care why? Liberals can bend at the knee all day long, but at the end of the day it still doesn't matter because whites still reign at the top. In the grand scheme, the status quo remains the same. In essence you're complaining about nothing.

With that said, we weren't there and there was no audio recording, so we have no idea who was in the wrong. It's all he said, she said.

When all you have is a hammer every problem looks like a nail, and when the only tool you have is the race card every problem looks like racism.

Segregation was moral srs

I'd say blame white people but at this point leftists deserve their own race.

This probably has more to do with her being a girl than being black. The janitor isn’t even a human being in the eyes of a woman, so of course she will gladly ruin his life for a bit of attention. 15 minutes of fame and the heroic victim status is worth it.

I read that as "clown marches onnnnnn"


Like that "time marches on" country song.

Dear diary

Black racism and black fragility are accepted and forced upon American society. It has been this way for decades in certain domains (academia/education, government, etc.) but it is now aggressively being pushed on all domains of society. The reason is Ashkenazi and Anglo-Saxon feminist liberalism/leftism, especially in academia, which has overwhelmed, in a bizarre way, the American discourse and narrative. They use blacks and "racism" as a hammer to bash and destroy everything.


Cliffs: Clown World is Juggernaut. It devours all in its path. Honk Honk.

This is why when I fu*k minorities I make them swallow my cum

American woke culture is a joke.

LMAOOO at nobody daring to say anything. They got you by the balls.

Why the fook does these people not sue for libel and the school for wrongful termination, srs.

Because the judiciary, law enforcement, and legal theory, the whole juridical structure and its institutions, has been devoured by Clown World.

Great question. Initial thoughts, finding a lawyer is a problem?

strongI care because good people become outcasts at the mention of a word without any real consideration. It seems like the equivalent of a which hunt.

Black people choosing to repeatidly cash in on the descrimination card are doing an immense amount of damage to black people as a whole. The narrative being presented is that black americans are extremely sensitive to words, not capable or qualified for jobs w/o gov. assistance, and having a kind of "persecutory complex". Having lived in Georgia and being the minority in inner-city areas nearly all my life, I can safely say I've maybe heard the race card pulled a handfull of times tops. Funnily enough nearly all the black people around roll their eyes and are fully aware the person is just abusing it. Society needs to stop treating black people like incompetent infants because it's ridiculously patronizing and will result in people putting on 5 or 6 filters whenever they're around in fear of triggering them.

Smith college again...


lol

You'd never find any of this drama in a men's only STEM institution btw.

Yeah that’s what I thought as well, but it really can’t be that big of a problem.

(Also regarding the whole judicial system being “compromised” as another miscer wrote above, without evidence, I can only assume that is complete BS)

and then she went for a jog

Remember when segregation was a bad thing ?(literally like only 60-70 years ago)

Perverse reversal

Funny how liberal MSM is reporting this

Almost like they just report the news and not follow the woke agenda right wing retards always accuse them of
