Dear White America: Its time to get the message


For decades now, black people have been trying to tell us white folks something. Here's how it looked in the 1960's:

 


With the advent of social media, the same message was communicated following the acquittal of George Zimmerman for the murder of Trayvon Martin via the hashtag #HeIsNotASuspect.

Today, we're seeing black people doing their best to communicate the same thing via the hashtag #dangerousblackkids.

107. No. It is a call out.

There is an American culture.

That culture includes people of all colors.

Progressive people understand that we are in this together, cooperating to build a better world.

Is it that you think white people who here at DU are to stupid to understand that concept?

Or that white people here on DU are unaware that racism exists?

Or that white people on DU do not support the black community?

Or that white people here on DU are just racists in general?

If that's not what you think, then you won't be offended as it's not about you.

3. No, none of that matters. Whites are bad, bad people. Simply because their skin is white.

So say the hypocrites with their broad-brushes, wanting to lecture everyone on racism.

85. but it DOES apply to me because of the way it was written

You don't get to write "White people suck" and then go "oh, I didn't mean YOU" to the white people who object.

The OP does not get to write "White people need to get this message" and then say "well, when I wrote white people, I didn't really mean white people, just some white people, even though I didn't bother to write the word 'some'".

If you say White America, then you have said White America.

93. An opinion that you are more important than dead black kids. (nt)

 

They are just a bunch of hateful haters.   The things that kills me is they assume every poster is white.  They have no idea who these anonymous misfits are (I post frequently to moron trolls - you know I am black right?, I am not, but they have no freakin idea WHO they are posting to - they are all racist morons).

Hey white folks...its time to wake up and get the f*cking message!!!!!

Here's an issue, and it has nothing to do with race.

Whenever a lib says to "listen and get the message," it's not enough to acknowledge that you heard it and understood what they're saying, you also have to agree 100%. If you don't agree 100%, then you really didn't listen and get the message.

And then they actually believe that type of nonsense works.

The left is all about diversity as long as everyone thinks 101% the same. There is no tolerances for any thoughts outside of the hive mind.

This is just more proof that the people that tell you they are against hate and intolerance are in fact, very much people of hate and intolerance. The projection of leftists is an amazing thing to behold.

Oh I got the message.

If your'e Black, reverse discrimination is OK.

If your'e Black, no matter what your behavior is, it's the white mans fault.

If your'e Black, you deserve to live in America, gratis.

If your'e Black, the media will gleefully pronounce a guilty verdict well before a trial is under way. If you don't win, scream "racist".

et al..........
