The worst thing you can do in these situations is to actually apologize.

    Sarcastically pretending to be the people you hate in post titles is played out, imo

    Yep. Particularly when it concerns a trivial event from 2015.

      It's all good

      [–]magnora7 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (3 children)

      Agreed! I'm going to mute this sub in my personal /all feed, I think

      I haven't yet been able to bring myself to mute any sub. It's like inverse censorship.

      I still want to know what's going around.

      Although, I think IP was auto filtered, and I didn't have any issues with that. Lots of purple going on over there.

      IP2 and incels and a few others voluntarily removed themselves from the /all feed, which is an option mods can set in the sub settings on saidit

      I would also just like to say, "ALL LIVES do MATTER"

      [–]Tom_Bombadil 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (3 children)

      Sure. Most lives aren't threatened by the police.

      If the police were disproportionately murdering other unarmed demographics then they'd be included.

      That's the whole point.

      That's the whole point.

      What are you saying, only black lives matter? If so, to myself the idea seems like a cliche against humanity on the whole, and anything ever working itself out. We can discuss demographic breakdowns, we can discuss a lot of figures, but one stands out in my mind, the black male has a disproportionately higher tendency to commit violent crime by statistic. Should this fact be hidden?

      While black lives do matter, and all lives matter, crime matters more, and can cause massive societal unrest; which we're somewhat starting to see now. People don't have much, and the little property they have, including their bodies are important to each individually, and respectively.

      It's not my fault, it's not anyone's fault that the statistics point toward black males. Jesse Lee Patterson, of "The Fallen State" addresses this often on his program; hence the name. Instead of laying blame at the next groups feet, all groups need to take responsibility for their own people. Yet in our current paradigm, the old saying of, 'a Jew made my coffee cold' is if ever applicable, outdated today. Today it really is 'that damn white man did it all!', and from there as seen on tv, it's 'okay' to lay hands on them, and beat them. Cozy, huh?

      What I was conveying in my original post is that all lives matter, and making that exclusive to anyone group being better than the next in any way is wrong; at least in my opinion. The idea of this university president being forced(the tide is clear that if she hadn't, then she'd be gone) to apologize, "Oh I'm sorry, silly me for thinking all life is precious, I apologize, 'black lives matter'!!!", is exclusively repugnant to all life.

      The continuance of this tide I saw recently where the FBI was called in to investigate someone posting signs reading, 'it's okay to be white'.... The FBI??? What if the sign read, 'it's not okay to be white', would that be okay? I think it would be considering the amount of racist groups that are allowed to gather on public property to protest, and exclude white people...

      The link to the FBI investigation is below. If we're from different ideological backgrounds on this topic, please be thorough so I can grasp your view.

      While black lives do matter, and all lives matter, crime matters more

      Really? "Crime matters more"???

      Who's crime? Low level drug offences, or the murder of unarmed civilians.
      The overwhelming majority of these civilian murders are the result of police escalations of minor offenses.

      Do you think the police should be allowed to act as executioners when they're frightened.

      You think they should bypass the court system? If they're scared then call for additional backup.

      Arresting the suspect can always wait.
      If they get away, then that's preferable to an execution.
      Arrests shouldn't be prioritized over public safety.

      I didn't say I support police; usually I actually hyphenate the word like so, po-lice, or for real emphasis, po-'lice'; indicating their parasitic nature on the whole. Overall, my sentiment on the whole is not all are bad, and even some good, but I live by the rule of 'don't talk to the po-lice', and I also in that rare occasion I come across them, treat them like a wounded animal, as I know they're dangerous.

      Having that said, and to what got you rolling, 'crime matters more'. I said that in reference to lives, but why? Have you ever seen the stupid shit people will do to prevent crime to themselves, or retribution from there? Hell, in Arizona, the gun culture there, even has people shooting running bank robbers, just cause they wanted to help out. Crime does create a sense of dishevel, or chaos that doesn't stop unless it's kept in check; people, man lives get hurt when crime goes rampant.

      Considering this stuff has only continued at an increased fevered rate, I think this is entirely relevant. The question I have especially when reading the responses to this thread, is to why this should be muted?

      2015 to anyone over 20 years of age should seem like yesterday. I can imagine people looking back say in a hundred years, should we survive as an intact society, will not only be referencing this point in time, but probably 50 to 100 years, perhaps more leading up to the current time. The reason is simple, tyrants have been setting this up for a very very very very very long time.

      Good post.

        huh, okay, I just saw that this should be 'muted', and I think about that. I really think about that, and who it came from. I don't see any malice in what you wrote, perhaps an attempt at humor; which it appears many received, and appreciated; while others didn't; so goes any public platform designed to foster communication.

        Do you feel bad knowing that what you wrote, or in actuality, your 'art', your 'expression' is condemned, and is considered shit by someone else? To be frank, I don't care if I'm banned from this forum, or the next.

        People always incessantly want to be heard, and often times that same want to be heard turns to attempts at control for what others think, feel, or do.

        hahahaha, I guess I'll stay a brute, and you can learn to be what? More appealing, and to whom? Fuck that, learn, live, and embrace who you are; don't let anyone else 'mute you'.

        Violent crime is 51% since the 90's. You're falling for the propaganda.

        https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2019/10/17/facts-about-crime-in-the-u-s/

        Using the FBI numbers, the violent crime rate fell 51% between 1993 and 2018. Using the BJS data, the rate fell 71% during that span. The long-term decline in violent crime hasn’t been uninterrupted, though. The FBI, for instance, reported increases in the violent crime rate between 2004 and 2006 and again between 2014 and 2016. Violent crime includes offenses such as rape, robbery and assault.

        Propaganda is the real problem

        Public perceptions about crime in the U.S. often don’t align with the data. Opinion surveys regularly find that Americans believe crime is up nationally, even when the data shows it is down. In 18 of 22 Gallup surveys conducted between 1993 and 2018, at least six-in-ten Americans said there was more crime in the U.S. compared with the year before, despite the generally downward trend in national violent and property crime rates during most of that period.

        Oh come now Tom, you write the above post in reference to me stating that the thread is relevant? The thread was about a white person in power, by way of social constructs being forced to change an entirely objective statement towards all life, into a narrow minded subjective statement by way of an apology.

        That's what the thread is about.

        If you want to talk about crime, most cops today don't take many reports, or actually do much beyond responding to Walmart, and Home Depot for shop lifting. Hell, I was assaulted, called 911, and all that jazz. I wanted the mother fucker arrested, and charged with assault; no cop came for me, they were literally busier helping another cop with a dui; no shit.

        And why do I mention this? The thread is about a woman, who I guarantee you isn't a bigot, but who made a statement, and due to the political correct nature of our current society, by example, is more than likely being referred to as a bigot.... But that's not relevant? Please. Carry on the 'this doesn't matter Soros narrative'; as the problem is getting worse.
