Current Affairs George Floyd and Minneapolis Unrest

[DrEFC]

Possibly yes...however

In japan white kids born there are bullied and called gaijin

Mixed race kids are called halfu (half local half foreign) and bullied

China has models who are mixed or local born from expats who are destroyed on social media...

Etc etc




Theres rich people in any race.

Why do you think black people would paint a different picture...they seem to have the time of their lives out here like celebrities.

Fair play to them.



We all make our own path and self improve...work hard...socialise and open a route to self actualisation.

If people want to knock me down...racially profile or whatever then i adapt.

Im not going to cry about racism to people...im going to get myself into a better position despite that.

Would i march for foreigner rights in Asia? No chance.

Fair play to you responding, but the last bold bit sums it up why you possibly perceive things differently.

You tell me;


3: Black guy goes into a club in most Asian countries and its instant celebrity status.

Categorically untrue.

Exactly...im not going to march for something when i can be doing something i consider more productive.

Certainly not during a pandemic. Ive not been outside for 9 weeks

I've had women put their hands down my trousers or up my t-shirt on nights out. I've had a patients say foul things enough, that the midwives wanted to knock her head off. The difference is, I could laugh it off because if I wanted it to stop, it would. I have power over them physically, and societally.


*I was slim and good looking at one point in my life

People seem to find it hard to understand that there is a whole different dynamic and associations, to a guy groping a lady to a lady groping a man. They just use a lazy equivalence. Ridiculous

George Floyd wasnt a foreigner. He was American and he was killed by his own countrymen, who work within an institution to protect the public, reportedly over a $20 cheque.

Yeah but there's racism everywhere. He should have concentrated on adapting to it rather than crying "I can't breath" like a baby.

Also, he was over 25 which means he was basically ready to be used for glue anyway

$20 counterfeit banknote I think wasn't it?

Saw a (white) guy post something that I thought was pretty powerful the other day. Basis of it was "George Floyd and I were both arrested for unwittingly spending a counterfeit $20 bill. It cost him his life. For me, it's a story I sometimes tell at parties"

I've started reading Zatara's posts in David Brent's voice.

 

[JimmyJeffers]

Zat's posts becoming increasingly more bizarre and unconnected.

‘Black guys are treated like celebrities in Asia and have the time of their lives’

Not only can I use my own personal experience of going to different clubs in Asia, @Zatara can also call on his own personal experiences. (If of course he still remembers them) to refute this notion.

I think he has me on ignore so can you tag him for me please.

Ouch - that undermines his weirdly unrelated points big time. Ah well, I’m sure linking a few more alt right tweets will get his argument back on track

Wow. Excellent vaulting Jimmy. I didn't know you had that in your locker

 

[Death]

Did anyone see the video of the young black couple sitting in traffic in the car getting their car smashed up and then tazered and battered while a while couple in the car before them was left alone?

I can’t remember what I had for dinner but can weirdly remember mental posts

 

[Prevenger17]

@Zatara, @JimmyJeffers wants to know how you square your assertion that ‘Black guys are treated like celebrities in Asia and have the time of their lives’ with this post you made a while back

Irony...seeing your black mate being racially abused by Chinese door staff and then being stabbed from behind by a non-Chinese gang paid for by the club when I asked them to stop being racist.
