Laid off: Newspapers drop office cartoon 'Dilbert' over creator's racial remarks

Really.

In what specific ways are black people being repressed.

 

Is this true?

 

I don’t have to hate them to not vote for them. I don’t like their agendas and that’s why I will never vote for them because their goal is to oppress whites by law.

 

Yep.

Man nabbed for Bronx rape allegedly said she ‘deserved it’ for ‘slavery’

 

It's something of a strange question when presented without context though. It's not as if being white is a choice so the question of it being OK is meaningless and the term "OK" is so generic as to be meaningless without any clarification. There is essentially no way of knowing what the people answering the question actually intended by their answers, individually or as a whole. To be honest, the whole survey strikes me as a classic example of asking a bunch of generic questions designed to generate some kind of result that can be spun up in to a click-worthy headline.

After all, that is exactly what happened and Adams was apparently fell for it, ironically giving it even more coverage. It is also ironic that Adams response could essentially be boiled down to "It's not OK to be black."

 

Nah, you've already put black people and all women in the same category.

 

I think all rapists should receive capital punishment. But this one definitely highlights my point. Modern day whites had nothing to do with slavery. And the majority of whites alive today have had nothing to do with Jim Crow. But the agendas pushed by black communities teach hate for current whites. I do believe they constitute a hate group. We should not give platforms like BLM, CRT, and NBP don’t deserve our time. Neither does black history month in my opinion. Any program or national holiday that looks at race specifically deserves no attention in todays society. Blacks have just as much opportunity as whites and even more than white men because of affirmative action.

 

African Americans continue to face many forms of oppression and systemic barriers in the United States today, including:

1. Police brutality: African Americans are more likely to be killed by police officers than any other racial or ethnic group. The Black Lives Matter movement has brought attention to this issue and called for reform of law enforcement practices.
   
   
2. Mass incarceration: African Americans are disproportionately represented in the US prison system, which is often criticized for its harsh sentencing policies, unequal treatment of minorities, and for-profit nature.
   
   
3. Voter suppression: African Americans have historically faced many barriers to voting, such as poll taxes and literacy tests. Although many of these barriers have been removed, voter ID laws, gerrymandering, and other forms of voter suppression continue to limit African American representation in politics.
   
   
4. Economic inequality: African Americans continue to face economic disparities, including higher unemployment rates, lower wages, and limited access to credit and capital. This can limit opportunities for upward mobility and perpetuate cycles of poverty.
   
   
5. Healthcare disparities: African Americans experience higher rates of many health problems, including hypertension, diabetes, and COVID-19. This is due in part to a lack of access to healthcare and to racial bias in the medical system.
   

These are just a few examples of the ongoing challenges that African Americans face in the United States. Addressing these issues will require systemic changes at many levels of society, including in law enforcement, education, healthcare, and the economy.

I'd like to thank ChatopenAI

 

1. Not an example of racism. It's an example of 13% of the population committing 51% of the violent crime which naturally leads them to getting shot more often.

2. See 1. Unless they're innocent that's not racism.

3. There is no voter suppression in the US. Recent claims of voter suppression in GA resulted in the largest black turnout ever.

4. There are no barriers to blacks. Blacks and other minorities enjoy benefits that other races don't have under the law. If blacks fail to succeed it's because they're not putting in effort to succeed. There are many rich black people in the US. If one can do it, all can do it.

5. Did white people give black people diabetes, hypertension and Covid19? They have the same access to healthcare as everyone else. Unless you'd like to show where hospitals are turning away people because they're black.

You didn't give examples of anything but made up nonsense.

The opportunities for black americans are the same as any other american.

If some black people can succeed, then all of them could, if they put in the personal effort to do so. And, of course, that's true for all races in this country.

 

As you gave a "like" to the reply that Joe Knows offered for you, responding to this same post of mine, in which he'd claimed that whites are being oppressed, I will take your (title of an Alicia Silverstone movie, which is nonetheless, now considered too harsh a description to be allowed) questioning of black repression, to have been meant facetiously.

 

Translation: You couldn't come up with anything.

 

Are you suggesting that whites are not oppressed by law?

 

They are also more likely in terms of rates to commit crimes. So if you’re tall death rates that argument is sound but not surprising being their crime rate is also higher.

 

Again, they statistically commit more crime so their incarceration rate will likewise be higher

 

Voter ID’s do not oppress legal votes. Anyone can get an ID. Are you suggesting that blacks are incapable of getting ID’s?

As far as gerrymandering, both sides do it and judges have ruled for and against both sides on this issue

 

This is also not true. If you look at it in face value of mere ownership then sure but if you couple it with graduation rates it is no wonder they have a a smaller portion of the pool of wealth.

 

Now this one is laughable. During the COVID pandemic minorities received one extra point of priority just for their skin color. In fact everyone received this point unless you were a white male. That is oppressive against whites, not blacks

 

And so what do you think of what Adams said?

 

Well the pollster kind of pulled a dirty trick. Wording matters. Context matters. Consider the similar slogan "all lives matter." On its face, how can one disagree with this? But in context, it's an anti-BLM statement. Similarly, "it's ok to be white" started as a 4chan troll, but became a neo-nazi slogan.

The combination of innocuous "face value" with the recent racist history is likely why there is such a high "not sure" response.

It's okay to be white - Wikipedia

So basically, the pollsters were either stupid for not googling their own poll question or were themselves seeking an illegitimate but headline grabbing response. Had they wanted a legitimate response, they would have come up with their own wording that is unambiguous and without such a history.

 

Well done! When it comes to online mysteries, you are our own, resident Columbo!*

How many times do I have to tell you I already gave my response to the OP?

If you can't find it maybe it's because of white supremacy.

 

Here are all your quotes prior to me asking what you thought of Adam's statements. Can you help me find where you already addressed Adam's statements?

 

Adams found out where the junction of FA and FO is.

Free market, it works, even when you don't like it.

 

Scumbag ner’do’well. It’s all this rat f is. Real coffee with the cartoon artist, pfffft. Supreme ****, Scott Adams.

 

And you still don't see my response to the OP. Amazing.
