That's because you're white and in the first world. Where I live it was illegal to move into certain areas if you weren't white until as recent as ~45 years ago, and you can still see the results today. It's not like all these things just magically disappeared.



That's because you aren't willing to accept reality. When reality gets uncomfortable you get all triggered and disengage.

I am not saying that that wasn't a horrible thing, however, we aren't talking about racial violence. We are talking about building highways through black neighborhoods without compensating them for it. I searched for the word "highway" in the Tulsa massacre entry in wikipedia and found nothing.

Oh shit bro. You searched "highway" on wikipedia and didn't find anything? Damn. That's like, ten years of research. Do you want your Ph.D now? /s

If you actually put in some effort you might learn. Go ahead, actually read the article, and then maybe go outside of wikipedia and read a second one.

No - you're just asinine in how you formulate an argument.

We had a topic about Communism Vs Capitalism - and now you want to blend racism into it and pretend like Capitalism and racism are somehow inherently blended, which is just a dumbass college girl's fallacy.


Don't you literally work on quantum computers irl or something? Shouldn't you be smarter than this?

There is no need for your snark. I am trying to have a civil conversation with you.



Please do not talk condescendingly towards me. Like I said, I am trying to have a conversation with you.



I see that the fact I don't get equally outraged about Tulsa massacre as you do really hurts your feelings.

Capitalism and racism are fundamentally linked. Sorry that triggers you, but it's just reality. I get it. Reality is hard to deal with. We all want to hide from it sometimes. The important thing is to accept it and move on.

I could also bring up all that Native American genocide that happened under capitalism. Ya know, that's another great point.



When you show you don't even have a first grade understanding of world history I will talk down to you. Sorry if that triggers you.

The appropriate response here would have been "Oh yeah, I guess there is some basis for your opinion. I'll try to think my comments through before I make them".

If we're going to follow the logic that Capitalism must inherently include racism, then what happens when a racially ubiquitous society like say.. Nigeria - goes full blown capitalist? Is that like dividing by zero? Black hole engage?

Capitalism doesn't stop at national borders.

Wrong on all counts, where I grew up and lived for the greatest part of my life, minimum wage is 500 USD. Then again it's a stretch to assume my position based on my race/ethnicity. You can do better. My country, even though corruption leaks from the system, endorses many social programs (which i'm in favor of)

I'm not arguing on personal experience. It's just a fact that this 'trait' (if you'd like to call it like that) is less prevalent in capitalist societies. That doesn't mean it is nonexistent, but there is a reason why it is associated with socialism/communism.

-Please- do not make the 'white man hijacked my black brain' argument.

If you recant this stupidity in the next 20 seconds, I may be able to forget you said that.
