I, Racist
"White people, every single one of you, are complicit in this racism because you benefit directly from it."
Found this article on Facebook, and was horrified! I am not complicit in anything that I am not a part of. What do you think?

p.s. my wife, who grew up in Buffalo, NY, praises her
upbringing there and damns it down here (her family moved
to tennessee when she was 9) because the races and
ethnicities were harmoniously mixed up there, and
she was responsible for the civil war, down here. -- j

Like the guy who's getting fired and takes his case to the HR manager...
"You're firing me because I'm a minority!"
Response from HR:
"No, we HIRED you because you are a minority; we're firing you because you're a F-ing INCOMPETENT."

In any case, the ones to suffer are the patients who go to the inferior dentist and get poor treatment. I venture to say that the excellent black dentist suffers also, as people can wonder: did he deserve this degree, or is it an affirmative action degree?
Inexcusable.

Someone clearly needs to get their head screwed on straight.
Morons and unintended consequences all around. Sad.
Sounded, in the end, like a liberal's lament of 'beat me up because I haven't cured poverty and world hunger all by myself.'
The problems are extremely complex, yet everyone wants and looks for 'simple, immediate curative solutions.'
And get pissed when their attempts fail, repeatedly, to make a positive difference.
Reminds me of Jew-stereotyping and -bashing. Yep, lots of Jews ARE successful and wealthy. The Jewish culture and history also is one of many generations of valuing and pursuing knowledge and education. Go figure. Now people beat up on Asians for outperforming whites AND blacks in business, in college and by many other measures. Go figure.
I found the article repetitious and it didn't seem to move towards any suggestions of positive actions that could reverse the trends of what he was complaining about.
Sad.
1) I found it interesting that Mr. Metta claims that individual white people tend to think in terms of being an individual while individual black people tend to think in terms of being in a group. If true, perhaps he should examine those claims and possibly find a solution therein.
2) Mr. Metta claims that when white people move to the suburbs (to areas more "white") that their motivation is inherently racist. I would submit that perhaps some of these people are not motivated by internal feelings of racism, but instead by the exhaustion of recognizing the futility of living in a society where their only default status is one of a racist (outright or crypto) no matter what they might say, think, or do.
Not in spoken nor written word nor in deed zero tolerance.
The other issue is blanket condemnation and presumption of guilt. I am NOT responsible for anything before my birth and probably not responsible for the hypocritical racists, sexists, and religious intolerants that raised me.
I AM responsible for my own actions and beliefs since then. This individual is complicit in racism for whatever reason and for what benefit I cannot and do not care to fathom.
Another reason not to vote for the Government Party.
I think the term for what I wrote is ''uppity''
That is indeed true.
By the way, a white person with a GPA below 3.0 is not even considered for admission, whereas black people with as low as a 2.0 have been admitted.
The thing that pisses me off is that the more qualified applicants are denied in favor of the less qualified. Progressive heaven!

In theory, those people want MLK's dream: an "identity free future" in which each person will be judged only by his own actions and the character (or lack of) that they show.
In reality, the SJWs' [1] whole concept of validation is built on the supposed fact that they're victims -- just because they're black, or female, or what have you -- and the "identity free future" is a promise pushed off into a future never-to-be-reached, just like the USSR's notion of "true communism." The actual state they'll build if they win is similarly parallel -- a "dictatorship of the protected classes." We're not all the way there yet (though employment law already is), but one or two more terms of Democratic administrations and we will be.

[1] "SJW" stands for Social Justice Warrior, and it's what they're being called by the growing number of people who are fed up with them.
Its all "whiteys" fault solves no problems and adds to no discussions.
What would be helpful to his community would be sermons on self-fulfillment and achievement irregardless of the perceived obstacles to personal success. Get off the plantation and bust your butt to get where ya want to be in life.
So tired of hearing about all this crap from the left.
