I don't have to be told at all, I read the article about the anecdotal incidents and the subsequent reaction and immediately thought first world problems.  Really? An entire senior administration at a major public university is supposed to have a total meltdown over the possibility that someone MAY have driven on campus and MAY have yelled the N word out the window?

An entire senior administration at a major public university is supposed to accost the entire university community, including facility and staff because one individual of unknown origin and affiliation MAY have used racial slurs on campus towards others?

The entirety of a university and its constituency must be be subjected to the jackboot heel of hyper PCism because someone or some people who MAY or MAY NOT be affiliated with the university MAY have engaged in an act of racism?

Wow MIR, sounds like you've had some shitty experiences. But it sounds like you kinda just lived your life and went about finding a job where you didn't have to put up with that crap. Good for you. You know what probably wouldn't have helped? Going on hunger strike until your demands were met, like the resignation of some white camp owner you probably never even met. Why can't people just live their lives and ignore all the real and not so real unfairness? Life's not fair. Bitching about it gets you nowhere.

My wife and I both work at jobs with black coworkers and black managers, some of whom outrank us. They're doing just fine. So are we. Race is not an issue. People are just living their lives, doing their jobs.

At my company, the owners son is drawing a paycheck to basically do nothing and one day he'll be on the board. Who the eff cares? Good for him. I'll live my life and he can live his.

You missed the point, every point it seems. Should I just be happy that I have a job far beneath my skill and my accomplishments, because I'm not. I wish I had the conviction to go on a hunger strike for injustice and inequality because I certainly would. I have kids and I want things to be better for them that it was for me. I have no idea why you went to the comparison of "some white camp owner I have never met" the gentleman having a hunger strike has met the system president, more than once. Clearly the hunger strike has had some affect, the country is talking about this and the administration is feeling pressure.

Also your little life is not fair rant is trite and insulting. I also never insisted that african americans aren't managers and decision makers so I'm not sure why your story about blacks who "outrank" you is relevant. I'm in charge, I make the rules, I hire and fire; none of that has a damn thing to do with equal opportunity I have no idea how you can't see that.

Look bub, you either like your job or you don't. If you feel it's beneath your skill level and accomplishments as a camp counselor, get a new job. Or don't. But don't bitch about how raaaaacism and white privilege are holding you back. JFC. Quit whining.

No more "funny" then people who want to call the entirety of the fabric of an institution racist and failing to do their job over anecdotal accusations against people of unknown origin or affiliation.  That's absolutely absurd.

KSUW doesn't think collective action works and dax thinks collective action is a vast, all powerful conspiracy with fascism at its heart.

Collective action against actions of apparently unknown people, of apparently unknown origin or affiliation based on anecdotal/circumstantial evidence.   

Administrators must resign because they didn't  hit the outrage meter high enough when unknown person or persons participated in a racist act. 

The arbitrary world of PC jackboots is scary.

MIR, I really appreciated the vulnerability to share those stories. Thanks for sharing. Sometimes big systematic issues in society seem far away. When its a story of your friend, its more real.

I can't tell in that exchange with Wolfe if they meant to be saying systematic or if they were trying to say systemic or if either of those words is suitable given the cited examples.

Welp, this is probably the gayest pit thread in a while.

If the rando would have just smeared crap into a Jesus face, instead of a swastika, we'd still be on the safe side of the race/pc fulcrum, some guy wouldn't be on a pretend hunger strike and a bunch old ladies would be having a very smelly vigil.

If you saw Jesus it would take a special type of sociopath and a unique amount of courage to smear crap on his face. I'd like to think he could stop you from doing that.

I think people would laud the creativity, some may even pray to it like Jesus toast. I may be wrong but I don't think that Jesus' face is an international sign of hate and intolerance like a swastika. Weird comparo FSD, why do you hate the son of God?

Yep, lots of other groups in the United States that were enslaved, subject to overt discrimination for the next 100 years specifically designed to keep them poor, socially subservient and educationally inferior.

What are you even talking about?

Quote
...a race of people whom nature has marked as inferior, and who are incapable of progress or intellectual development beyond a certain point, as their history has shown; differing in language, opinions, color, and physical conformation; between whom and ourselves nature has placed an impassable difference" and as such had no right " to swear away the life of a citizen" or participate" with us in administering the affairs of our Government

guess the race (hint, not black)

every group of immigrants has faced hardship (even the white ones). some more than others. but the successful ones didn't sit around and complain.

take mir's story. it's terrible what he faced, there's no doubt about it. people are assholes. but i still see blaming others for his problems. and if he's qualified to be the head coach of his profession, he would have found a way to make it happen. then again, he wouldn't go on a hunger strike for his kids.

my grandmother grew up dirt poor in a farm village, had 4 kids, husband died young, half deaf, back problems, had to work 2 manual labor crap jobs just to put her kids in college. then all 4 learned from that work ethic and found success. when you grow up hearing stories about all that, it is easy to recognize how ridiculous all this black lives matter/white-blaming bullshit is. it's all a bunch of .

Unsurprisingly, you didn't read carefully enough, don't even bother.

I don't understand your point about your grandmother. Both of my grandparents graduated from college including my maternal grandmother being the 2nd black undergrad admitted at Oklahoma A&M. Both of my parents are college grads, I'm a college grad. When I'm being discriminated against or marginalized none of that matters.

I had a Laotian friend who tried to kill himself, in his letter me mentioned being called a gook. Clearly only the negroes feel the burden of racism.

Hey guys, can racism exist and people also have other really tough problems and trials about their lives  :Wha:

Nope not possible, racism is a zero sum game. All minorities have to be in constant fear of being enslaved or lynched for racism to exist.

This makes me pleased. I hate mizzou.

I hope they pull the scholarships of those that refuse to practice/play or at least the leaders of this protest. I hope Pinkel gets fired. I hope they play the football game with a bunch of walkons and get destroyed.

While I don't condone racism at all from any side, I think the damage they are doing to themselves is far worse than a racial slur or poop-stica painted on a wall. I'm in my mid 30's and I've never seen a racial divide among certain factions of all races in this country. I blame Obama.
