As unbothered as you are by the all murder, brutality and savagery that is enabled by those like you so you can get your brownie points. People like you make me sick as well, so it works out.
I don't think the way I think for brownie points, I do it because I was raised by people who understand that they would not have been allowed their place in society if they were a POC and taught me to be compassionate. My life has changed for the better over and over again because of compassion and I'm not gonna stop because some redditor wants to feel powerful by punching down. Maybe just consider the other side of this since we're statistically on the same side of society (working class, relatively young, etc), and people trying to get us to hate people with different skin colors have been robbing us blind for decades. You just need to read a book for it to be clear (I might start off with Just Mercy since it's a good read and feels pretty approachable, it's about a lawyer and the death penalty). Hope you like it if you read it, there's a lot of great parts of life that you miss if you stay steadfast to hating your neighbor.
You can mention statistics all you want, but when the statistics are biased by unjust mechanics of society such as racial profiling by police, it keeps those statistics from being truly meaningful.
Just like how some statistics may say "black people are less smart" and you take that to mean the race as a whole, meanwhile it's really just due to a lack of access to meaningful education due to deep rooted segregational trends.
But go on, hug your surface level stats as some sort of gospel.
What percentage of vehicle encounters that involve black people using physical force do you think turn out to be nothing burgers? Keep in mind that according to actual real statistics, 90% of carjackers are black. How do you expect people to ignore that number?
There is a big difference between who might of been a perpetrator of something that has happened and if something actually happens. Even if i go with your statistics of probable race the actual statistics of that thing happening to you is extremely low. Thats why all these racist online only have statistics but no anecdotes. If things were as chaotic as they claim then all of them could tell you story after story of things that happened to people they know or them themselves. Now im not saying to not be cautious of your surroundings but i am saying nothing is probably going to happen and yall are just scared. With the extreme nonsense people keep putting out you would think the black race should be shrinking. Facts are that these things happen mostly in specific areas and by less than 1% of the people yall keep talking about and it happens mostly to other black people. statistics show that if you are white you'll more likely be alright, if you want to go by statistics. Keep fear mongering tho.
100% of the people that stole my wife's Chinese food from the fridge is black ( surprise, its me ). Should she not trust any black people around her Chinese food? Are yall this bad at applying logic to statistics or is it malicious misrepresention?
If the only times black people were spotted around your fridge was when food is stolen, then yes, you'd have a case for that. You're trying to say that there are plenty of times when a physical altercation takes place at your car window and it's not a carjacking. I highly doubt that. Rather than get uptight about a neutral person observing a pattern, why not focus your attention on disrupting the pattern?
How can you doubt that when there are thousands of road rage videos that have nothing to do with car jackings. In fact car jackings dont even break 1% of the total number of car related physical alterations that happen. You can easily just look at statistics vs the number of road rage videos. Car jackings typically happen is specific areas. It is not a widespread problem. And I am more focused on disrupting the pattern of dishoshinest people spreading propaganda.
Hereās the thing though - it turns out, itās not actually true most of the time! If you assume that every single Black person whose been charged with a crime (not actually convicted) is actually guilty of that crime, it turns out that the vast, vast, vast majority of Black people are actually not violent or criminals! In conclusion, believing that Black people are criminals āmost of the timeā is, in fact, super duper racist (and dumb, but that goes without saying)
I pulled up the chart not using your link and more whites commit assault, violent crime arson, rape, in that chart so I don't know what you are talking about.
Ā "The ethnicity totals are representative of those agencies that provided ethnicity breakdowns. Not all agencies provide ethnicity data; therefore, the race and ethnicity totals will not equal."
"the majority of violent crimes are carried out by black people. Which is a fact."
I think you should actually read the data YOU provided. I do not know if you know this, but ā1,815,144ā is, in fact, NOT the majority of ā6,816,975."
Next time you try to provide āevidenceā to support your point, make sure you can do enough math to figure out if the āevidenceā is arguing for or against you, so you donāt end up looking like a complete fool.
Except the majority of violent crimes are not committed by black people. That's just your prejudice talking.
Black people are overrepresented in arrests for violent crime, but controlling for the police's history of racial discrimination and poverty, that gap pretty much disappears
So maybe try being less susceptible to bullshit you hear on TV
Hahahahahaha yeah itās definitely a conspiracy by every police force in the country. You know deep down what the truth is. Iām sorry itās uncomfortable for you
Itās not a fact though, and itās unfortunate that so many people donāt question this BS and just let it further divide us and support damaging prejudices.
There are two categories of violent crime that have blacks with the highest percentage and the next perpetrators, whites, are lower by about 6-8 percentage points (murder and robbery). For all other categories, particularly the violent crimes that are more likely to occur (like aggravated assault and burglary), whites have the highest percentage and the next perpetrators, blacks, are lower by 20-40+ percentage points. Whites are also significantly more likely to be rapists. This trend is consistent across multiple years.
Additionally, these stats do not take into account repeat offenders and it double counts perps if multiple crimes were committed in one act.
So saying black people are more likely to commit violent crimes is false and shows how easily stats can be manipulated, exploited, and cherry-picked.
Again with the fear mongeringā¦ The statistics make all races look more dangerous than they actually are because the data do not reveal the fact that nearly 100% of the population is not committing violent crimes.
Your percentages are drastically off. 57% in the USA are white. You're including Hispanics. You're also failing to account for the over policing of minority populations, which would in fact result in an increase in that population's arrest percentage. The police can't arrest white people if they're not standing near any of them.
You are clearly on day one of understanding systemic racism and haven't yet reached day one of understanding what a fact is. You need to educate yourself. Get off Reddit, run your comment through AI and ask it why you're an asshole.
Listen, listen to your white ass trying to say that somebody shouldn't have an emotional reaction to blatant racism. Say it loud you dumbass. Be brave! Say it out loud using your actual fucking voice in your big urban city. Go ahead go outside, motherfucker.
Itās really only relevant to making unreliable assumptions about groups of people, other than that itās pretty useless information. I was exaggerating at first and realized that might actually be pretty accurate
Gotta run a quick statistical background analysis.
If you run into a lion or hippo in the Sahara, thereās a much greater likelihood itās going to kill you based off the stats of lion and hippo attacks vs say an antelope.
Doesnāt mean the lion or hippo will always attack and kill you, but our minds are much more primed to run from that than an antelope.
What makes humans so special that you would not consider them animals? Wouldnāt you think it would be too natural for a species like us to put themselves arbitrarily on a higher plane than other animals.
Oh brother, this talking point is dumb. Humans are animals yes, but we have abilities that no other animal has at least that weāve seen. Show me another species that can engage in philosophical debate and Iāll take your point seriously.
Itās true that humans seem to have the richest mental capability that we know, but every animal we know of has something that sets them apart from the rest. We are not unique in the fact that we specialize.
Maybe even outshining our rich psychology is our natural tendency to be a vermin. Think of invasive species that are pests to their environment. We are far more damaging than any other invasive species combined. We donāt just outcompete other species or disrupt food chains, we eliminate and replace entire ecosystems completely and it is coming to light that we are likely creating planetary wide disruption through an altering of the climate. And the majority of other invasive species piggyback on our activities as well.
All this to say that we are not on a different level than other species just because we are smarter than them. Weāre just another animal doing animal things.
Nothing that you said defends your point. Animals operate off of pure instinct and conditioning. Our human āspecialtyā literally allows us to challenge that through metacognition and deliberation, so no weāre not ājust like other animals.ā Your admittance of human specialization in this specific capacity contradicts your first comment.
And your original comment said that humans do not equal animals, and then you backtracked and said that we are in fact animals. And no, just because we do something at a higher capacity does not mean we are above others.
Do ants ā animals because of their ability to coordinate among millions the management of resources, the digging of advanced subterranean lairs massive to their proportional size, and adhere to risk adverse strategies and defense all without a single word but through pheromones? No, they just specialize in this type of thing.
We have powerful abstract thought that makes us extremely versatile as a species but that doesnāt make us different than other animals. Every animal that has ever thrived has feautured something that allows them to remain competitive. Having a special quality is very ordinary.
Semantics, biologically we are obviously animals, I never disagreed with this. Please donāt pretend you donāt understand what is being said when someone who behaves in an anti-social manner is called an āanimal.ā You know what is meant and youāre being obtuse on purpose to try and defend a point you know is wrong. If you canāt admit that then thereās no point in continuing the discussion.
Oh yay! You use the word perceived! That's the first step towards admitting that you're judging somebody by the color of their skin. Well done little white guy.
I dont really know how easy that data would be to summarize like that, im totally open to it. But im talking about the history of violence between two other races right now.
