    Pointing out racial disparities is not racism. No matter how much you perform your outrage. Saying that only white people are fit to really be CEOs would be racist. Pointing out that oddly most CEOs are white is not racist. Oh and by the way just to scare you with a boogeyman, CRT!

    Oh and you literally said that if a CEO put morals over profits that they would be a bad CEO and replaced. Basically implying that morals are incompatible with capitalism.

    By the way I am anti-capitalism in large scope. And I’m also against whiny little concern trolls.

      Pointing out racial disparities is not racism.

      Depends on the context. Just like the “jewish-controlled media” (when talking about e.g. the new yorker) would have an implication, the “white-controlled media” has an implication, too.

      This information can be presented independently, but you have to wonder why this disconnceted information is brought in multiple times in just the opening of the article.

      a boogeyman, CRT!

      I’m not American. Private slave ownership never existed in my country. (The term “race” when referring to a group of humans, however, is very ill-regarded.)

        So-called ‘reverse racism’ (ie just normal racism) has become shockingly acceptable in online discourse. To me, it’s just absurd how the same people who’d be outraged at black stereotypes will turn around and say ‘lol white girls fuck dogs’.

          Kiddo I am a white male. Take your reverse racism and shove it. I can be racist against myself if I want to. And yet you still cannot explain the disparity in much of American society without pointing to the factual and enduring racism and racial bias that exists in it to this day.

              Just a privilege little white kid talking about shit he doesn’t know. The fact that you’re white does not make it any better calling out another white person claiming reverse racism. A thing that doesn’t exist. It just drives home the point that you have no idea what you’re talking about. You know what’s worse than racism. Pretending it and its effects do not exist.

              And I should not have to explain well-known American history to you. Has school failed you that badly. That you learned nothing about slavery segregation or the ongoing racial divide that still exists to this day. Effects that extend into all ownership not just the media. Or are you just another foreigner trying to tell someone who’s experienced and lived through all this that what they feel what they’ve seen what they know is wrong. I don’t take kindly to gas lighters.

        I see. So you’re trying to misrepresent, and worse gaslight someone else about something you have no personal experience with and no very little about. Good to know.

          What do I have no personal experience with? Slavery? Or Americans? Or white-controlled media? Or racism?

          What personal experience would you say I’d need so I could make the claim that “the jewish-controlled media is trying to sway people away from democracy” is a problematic statement?

          (By the way good job moving away from the topic and moving to baseless attacks against me.)
