Current Affairs George Floyd and Minneapolis Unrest

[Zatara]

It's like quoting the Ku Klux Klan website as an objective source on racism mate.

Really? I googled it and it said online in a lot of places its the most watched tv station in US.

Also i only typed in "military on the streets' and it came up.

If im told that no one in US wants military on the streets and called a liar...then ive proven that person is wrong. Doesnt matter what the source is.

Personal attack after personal attack though. Im not bothered about it in the slightest but i find it very rude.

Btw i havent even said i want the military involved (i think its a good idea to have them assist the police with defending against looters though)!

Do I just not understand what a personal attack is anymore?

Careful now, that question could be seen as a personal attack by him.

He has lost it, bless him.

If you attack his source, which he admits not to look up, you attack him.

Anyway lads, @Debunkology has solved the problem so we can close this thread. The US just needs to tell black communities that no problem exists and quote unrelated stats about black on black violence to them. It's so simple, this problem would go away overnight

Sadly Ollie, despite saying several times that:

A: Im only linking the videos and dont know the people tweeting them.

B: I dont have a twitter account.

It seems some posters have chosen to use selective reading im afraid

Couldnt imagine why...

You don’t need a twitter account to do research (as you don’t need a twitter account to post tweets). I’m not sure why that’s relevant.

I’m absolutely fine with other people’s views. Everyone is going to have a different view politically and socially and economically. That’s cool. I’ve got friends from completely different backgrounds and at completely different ends of the political spectrum. We don’t always agree. Sometimes we argue. It’s fine.

I’d like to understand what your actual view is so I’ll ask you some questions if you don’t mind?

Do you think racism exists?

If so, do you think institutional racism exists?

Do you think people of colour are subjects to racism on a much bigger scale than white people? If not, what is your evidence to this?

Do you think political protest is a valid mechanism for change?

And if peaceful protest doesn’t work or is ignored or silenced, what do you think the alternatives to that should be?

 

[Zatara]

What's the demographics of Fox news viewership?

Dont know and dont care...totally irrelevant to the point i was disproving.

I dont have any set political views, i dont even vote.

Never watched that tv station before

Isn’t this the Fox News strapline?

Who knows what the media is being truthful about thesedays.

 

[Charro]

lol


More attacks.

Seen this time and time again.

You’re in the doubling down phase.

You’ve been challenged, you’ve played the victim, now you double down by posting stuff from out right racists on Fox News.

Its classic alt right behaviour.

1o you think racism exists?

2:If so, do you think institutional racism exists?

3o you think people of colour are subjects to racism on a much bigger scale than white people? If not, what is your evidence to this?

4: Do you think political protest is a valid mechanism for change?

5:And if peaceful protest doesn’t work or is ignored or silenced, what do you think the alternatives to that should be?

1: Yes in every country
2: Yes in every country
3: Depends on which country
4: Yes depending on the form of protest
5: Legally

Keith Lemon has just apologised for his portrayal of Michael Jackson and Craig David on Bo Selecta.

Hopefully things will calm down now after this.

 

[Walken]

You're having a 'mare here Zat. Maybe sit it out for a day or two and come back with a fresh mind

The lack of u17's footie during the virus has done him in

Wow. I don't see how racism can continue after this

Ok so your source is good when it says something you agree with, but you know nothing about it once it's been shot down.

Why are these random videos always from alt right types? How are you finding them? Do you ever watch ones explaining the reasons for the anger on show at the moment?

Try this, for example

 

[DrEFC]

What did the right think of them before the riots?

Debunkology sound like people who call them truth seeker ect on twitter. Binary views pandering to the far right.

 

[DrEFC]

Caution, serious injury in video.

The police have gone full fash. An elderly gent was returning a helmet,

Spoiler: Description of video

and they push him over, and he's knocked out, bleeding from his ear, unconscious, currently serious condition in hospital.

Made me feel sick. Love to see the 2A liberty & freedom nutjobs defend this.

 

[neil999]

Not a fan Neil? I was told to check who i was linking in case people didnt like them.

I checked and Fox News is the most watched news station in the US ?

And the sun is the most read paper in Britain (or it was)
