Zo, over projecteren gesproken zeg. Twitter stelt je in staat om veel verschillende invalshoeken te lezen, en bronmateriaal te bekijken van mensen die er echt zijn. Zo kun je je eigen mening vormen in plaats van in de WaPo of NYT lezen wat je mening zou moeten zijn. Probeer het eens. Is verfrissend.

Social media is alleen betrouwbaar als je iemand van rechts kan callen als 'nazi' en kan cancelen op een uitspraak van 10 jaar terug.
Voor de rest is het een poel des verderfs. Dat snap je toch wel?

Blijkbaar is de uitspraak van een BLM oprichter van jaren terug wel heel belangrijk als we zien vaak deze hier wel niet gebruikt wordt hier om alles marxcistisch te maken. Dus waar is de populistische consistentie in de logica die je hier probeert te verklaren.

Hypocriet is huilen en tieren als iemand iets doet/zegt wat niet in je straatje past, maar wel roepen om context als het iemand is wiens mening overeenkomt met die van jou. Of het nou het doodrijden van demonstranten is door iemand die zwart blijkt te zijn, of de #metoo van Joe Biden.

De twitter berichten die ik postte gingen vooral over Seattle en Portland. Niet over alle protesten.

En dat zijn overduidelijk antifa-bolwerken.

Systemic Racial Bias in the Criminal Justice System Is Not a Myth

It’s easy to refute the assertion that there is no systemic racial bias at all. Considerable evidence points to some degree of racial bias across nearly every aspect of the criminal justice system. Consider just a few examples: compared to whites, blacks are significantly more likely to be searched after traffic stops but less likely to turn up contraband or weapons; not to be told why they were pulled over; to be ticketed for jaywalking; to be treated with less respect by officers; to be arrested for low-level offenses; to be wrongfully convicted of murder, sexual assault, and drug crimes; to be offered plea bargains that include jail time; to serve life without parole for nonviolent offenses; to receive longer sentences for the same crime; to be incarcerated while awaiting trial; to have probation revoked; to be assigned higher bail amounts for the same crimes; and so on. Consider, in addition, that blacks are significantly underrepresented among prosecutors (95 percent of elected prosecutors and 85 percent of lawyers are white); more than a third of states have never seated a black state supreme court justice; and black judges have a higher likelihood of being overruled than their white counterparts. This is just a fraction of the research on the topic (see more than 300 research studies that are listed here and here, for example).

Given the history of racism in America, these shouldn’t be seen as mere disparities. Disparity by itself doesn’t imply bias, but these differences aren’t the outgrowth of a system that originated on some level playing field. Rather, our criminal justice system from the beginning has produced and sustained disadvantages for African Americans. This bias is systemic in the sense that it is perpetuated primarily by structures such as policies, codes, norms, laws, and organizations across the criminal justice system. Systemic racism means you can have “racism without racists.”

In what follows, I first clarify some confusions surrounding the term “systemic racism.” Next, returning to the Wall Street Journal article by Heather Mac Donald that I mentioned at the beginning, which focuses on fatal police officer-involved shootings, I show that the key claims on which it rests (besides botched calculations) are not empirically supported: (1) the studies it cites as evidence against systemic racial bias do not withstand scrutiny; and (2) the claim that blacks’ higher crime rates explain racial disparities is not supported either. I conclude by considering how systemic biases in police shootings can be produced by other mechanisms besides racist intent.

The bystander video of the shooting, which was taken from a distance, did not capture the man’s actions, though a number of people have insisted he was sleeping or unarmed.

“They put the gun on his head like this and they’re still telling him not to move, to get his hand off a gun he don’t have, and then they shot him again,” Steven Merry, who said he was a friend of the man and reportedly has video of the incident, told KSAZ. “They made sure he was dead.”

BLM Toronto leader believes white people are sub-human, calls them 'genetic defects'

A social media post has resurfaced from a Black Lives Matter Toronto co-founder in which she apparently argues that white people are “sub-human” and are “recessive genetic defects.”

Yusra Khogali wrote the post on what appears to be her Facebook and attempted to use a genetic explanation involving melanin production to explain why white people are “defects.” It has now gone viral after it was shared by scholar James Lindsay.

quote:

“Whiteness is not humxness,” reads the statement. “in fact, white skin is sub-humxn.”

“White ppl are recessive genetic defects. this is factual,” the post later says. “white ppl need white supremacy as a mechanism to protect their survival as a people because all they can do is produce themselves. black ppl simply through their dominant genes can literally wipe out the white race if we had the power to.”

She adds, "melanin directly communicates with cosmic energy."
