    Apparently the inverse of Scott Adam's comments DON'T get you cancelled.

    Robin DiAngelo Advises People of Color to ‘Get Away from White People’

    Robin DiAngelo, the author of the bestselling antiracist book, White Fragility, insisted that racial minorities should separate themselves from white Americans.

    “People of color need to get away from White people and have some community with each other,” DiAngelo chuckled during a webinar entitled, “Racial Justice: The Next Frontier,” hosted on March 1.

    Later on in the panel discussion, DiAngelo went on to suggest that people who do not concede to antiracist teachings do not belong in modern workforces.

    “In 2023, we have to see the ability to engage in these conversations with some nuance and some skill as a basic qualification and if you can’t do that, you’re just simply not qualified in today’s workplace,” DiAngelo said as the panel of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) consultants nodded in agreement.

    Yeah, I posted about this as well. It seems people are okay with racism against whites. Many argue it’s not happening and they’re blind as hell if they don’t see it.

    We’re not all decedents of blacks. Is that what you are suggesting

    @MelshieMaze here is someone actually doing the "I have black friends" you falsely accuse me of earlier. Do you have anything to say?

    But if you point it out, they're quick to call you a liar and a racist yourself.

    My word is my bond. Fred Hampton was murdered, Nelson Mandela is a war hero, the Messiah was black and is coming back. Do you understand yet?

    MY WORD IS MY BOND, THAT IS ALL THE EVIDENCE NEEDED TO SEE WHOS BACK IVE GOT. WE ALL SEE WHOS BACK YOUVE GOT, WHITE FOLKS, which is why your claim of having black friends is irrelevant since you have no bond.

    I can believe that we originated in Africa but the we all are descendants from blacks makes no sense. Why would they have black skin and us white if we are of the same cloth?

    Yep, and the bullshit you're trying to tag me in here is just as screwed up as when you did the same bullshit in the other, and it doesn't change that I'm pretty certain you were lying for internet clout in that thread.

    You seem to have a problem with someone doing the I have black friends thing even when I wasn't doing it but here's someone actually doing it and you have zero problem with it so that actually tells me what there is to know about you

    That's because you were doing the "I have black friends" thing in your thread to try and get someone to cosign your feelings, otherwise you wouldn't have needed to make the thread.

    I don't really have a side in this thread, I'm only here because you tagged me in it.

    What's an albino if not the truest definition of a white person?

    you are putting words in my mouth that I never said. Feel free to go quote me in that post so as not to drag this one off topic. I just wanted to see if you would apply the same standards to someone on your side of the political spectrum. Don't worry I got my answer.

    Not sure if it's OK to be certain skin color? That's racist.

    Are, for example, the two brothers who allegedly attacked Jussie Smollett white? Is, for example, George Foreman white? Is an ANTIFA member not white? In other words, is whiteness just a skin color or can whiteness also be an attitude?

    No question about it that's 25% of them that are clearly racist. But people make apologies for them

    You seem to never live up to your name. The customer service rep was on the phone and he was making assumptions about their race, so save your condescension for another time.

    You have it backwards. Joe is correct I work customer service because I work behind the register I work retail ergo customer service.
