I used to believe racism in the United States was overstated.
Sure, it existed. But it's not something widespread. Common. The claim americans are racists is ridiculous.
Well...I was wrong.
"Zohran Mamdani is a terrorist"
"Mamdani supports ISIS and HAMAS"
"New York City faces sharia law"
"Mamdani wants to MURDER jews"
The amount of shit published about this guy is absolutely insane.
He recently attended the 9/11 memorial ceremony.
At some point, he greeted congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and smiled for 5 seconds.
Immediatly, politicians went wild
Senator Ted Cruz:
Congresswoman Mary Miller :
Speaker Mike Johnson:
Here is the video. You can clearly see that he was stoic. He hugged her. Then he immediatly went back to being stoic.
Dude smiled 5 SECONDS in a 5 hour ceremony and they accuse him of celebrating 9/11
At the same ceremony, JD Vance and Howard Lutnick laughed and joked.
No one cares. They are white.
The US is more racist than I ever imagined.
You DON'T think white culture in the US has lead to clearly racist legal systems? This isn't a monitored harvard rules debate, quibbling about ''this isn't the SPECIFIC WAY to talk about racism'' is the entire fucking cornerstone of white supremacy in the US, it requires one thing. people like you saying what you're saying here. this isn't the way? I'm not white. keep talking about how we need less of me and my kids when you drive by their elementary school, and I'll keep explaining how racist you are, and I won't make you comfortable while I'm doing it. people who aren't into white culture norms DO NOT GIVE A SHIT ABOUT THE CONTEXT OF POINTING OUT RACIST SYSTEMS.
I do think that white culture does that. I'm a Latino and, while don't live in the USA, I know what the fucking bastard nazis of the ICE are doing to immigrants just because they're not white.
But the problem is that you started speaking about something that hadn't anything to do with what he was saying: he said that white people aren't a monolith, implying that not all of the white people are part of that white culture and as such aren't racist, then you responded with something about laws, so I said that it was a red herring fallacy and a non sequitur fallacy (you should read about what these are), because you assumed that he said something he never said. Is that so hard to understand? Anyway, I'll cut it here. Live a good life, and think a bit before you speak.
You don't live here. your not in their club, but your here to defend their culture. that you don't experience and aren't a part of. Bud when I say 'white culture in the US' I'm not taking about ANY white person. I'm taking about centuries of culture that plenty of pale people in the US don't like and don't fight for. why are you fighting for it? don't fucking do this.
Where the fuck I'm defending their shitty culture?
I just pointed out two fucking fallacies you made. It's that a defense of bigotry now? Stfu and gtfo
fuck me yourself, coward!
