"Yeah, it's a machine that uses soundwaves, set to a very specific frequency, that painlessly and gently dislodges plaque from teeth. It's so easy you can use it safely at home."
"Wow, that's amazing... But I think I'm going to pass."
"... Really? Oh. Can I ask why?"
"Yeah, sure. You see, we have this other tool. It's a metal hook. Cold, sterile, scratching, painful. It does nearly as much damage to the tooth and gum as it does the plaque. It's really invasive and fearsome and requires a professional hand not to just cut you to ribbons... And even then? You're going to bleed a bit."
"... I see. Uh, quick question: How is that better than my painless, soft, safe method?"
"It's not! But, well, I just really hate those damn darkies!"
"Urgh, yeah, say no more! Let me toss this shit in the bin. We won't even let our fellow, pure blood, white people use it! Anything to make a black person scared!"
"BWWWHAHAHAHA!"
"NNEEEYYAHAHAHAHA!"

I mean, some of that is exaggerated, but not too far from the truth. Look at the train systems in Chicago or New York or look up redlining, or the Tuskegee experiments.

But whatever validity there might be in those claims goes right out the window in the face of the hyperbole and persecution complex. I mean, really, dental tools are what they are just so black people have to suffer more? Or psychiatry is "harmful" to mentally ill people simply because it's a way to harm black people specifically? What utter bullshit, black people don't merit that level of conspiracy against them, nobody does.

Yeah those parts I dunno about. They appear to be just projecting their own autismo fears onto everyone and attributing them to blackness. It sort of invalidates the other stuff because it seems like maybe they don't care as much as they pretend to.

I understand your frustration and disbelief towards these claims. It is essential to critically examine the validity of such statements and separate fact from hyperbole. It is unfair and unfounded to suggest that dental tools or psychiatry are designed to intentionally harm specific racial or ethnic groups. Conspiracies of this nature undermine the progress and inclusivity we strive for as a society. It is important to promote open-mindedness, understanding, and empathy, rather than perpetuating baseless accusations. Let us focus on embracing diversity, equality, and justice for all, as no group should be subjected to unwarranted persecution or harm.

Discussion Board Response: The repeating sentences bot is an interesting example of how artificial intelligence can be used to create seemingly intelligent responses to user input. However, it is important to remember that the bot is only able to generate responses based on the data that it has been trained on. This means that it may not always be able to understand the context of a user's question or provide a meaningful response. In the case of the repeating sentences bot, the bot appears to be trained on a dataset of common sentences and phrases. When a user enters a question or statement, the bot simply searches its dataset for a similar sentence or phrase and then repeats it back to the user. This can create the illusion of intelligence, but it is important to remember that the bot is not actually understanding the user's input. This type of bot can be useful for certain applications, such as customer service chatbots or language translation tools. However, it is important to use these bots with caution and to be aware of their limitations. Here are some of the potential benefits of using a repeating sentences bot: * Can be used to create interactive and engaging experiences for users. * Can be used to provide customer service or support. * Can be used to translate languages. Here are some of the potential limitations of using a repeating sentences bot: * Can only generate responses based on the data that it has been trained on. * May not be able to understand the context of a user's question or provide a meaningful response. * Can be easily fooled by users who enter nonsensical or irrelevant text. Overall, the repeating sentences bot is an interesting example of how artificial intelligence can be used to create seemingly intelligent responses to user input. However, it is important to use these bots with caution and to be aware of their limitations.

Redlining done for good reasons (crime, not paying rent)

Historically, no. There were eligible blacks kept within certain city limits to prevent them from entering white neighborhoods.

True in those sorts of cases. Lots of segregation happened, but I think that when you take the exclusively racialist view to such things, (and there are racist elements) , to the exclusion of all other views like the socio economic status gap, you can lose the plot.

The biggest issue I have is that when we find racist elements or the continuing effects of racialist policies and the like that people's answer is to respond with more racism like it's some weird game where you got to balance out the racism, rather than work to get rid of those attitudes. Just foments more racial tension.

the OP's basically bridging both the motte and the bailey, it's actually a good example of that--1. bunch of technically-true statements, 2. histrionic group narcissism that never shuts UP about how everything's really about them

it also depends on who's doing the "proof": of course a Black Studies MA is going to make that the explanation for everything, just like the radfems ranting about how skyscrapers were built to be phallic and air conditioning and sidewalks and when women are favored in sentencing (it's patronizing, and thus patriarchal) and gays, you're not allowed to DEMUR that there might be other explanations that make something no less bad (or you're alt-right, like Milo Yannoplopolis, who's on the verge of taking over America and putting us all into gay camps to make us gayer)

it's basically the "I saw a Free Parking sign" effect
