Originally posted by El-blanco View PostAfter these equal rights are achieved through protest, what is going to be the next step for a group of people who value Kanye and Gucci Mane? There's major problems but solving one won't automatically solve the others.
Speaking of Kanye, I like his music. Admittedly, his recent content is a bit superficial, but I still value the honesty in tracks like "No Church in the Wild" and "New ******," which certainly go deeper into issues. Does that mean I deserve to be discriminated against?
Not that I need to justify my taste in music, but I write poetry, and Hip Hop is about as close as it gets to it. I don't necessarily agree with everything all Hip Hop artists say, but I value lyrical word-play. How is there anything wrong with that?
If you don't like a track, then you have the right to not listen to it. However, that doesn't also give you the right to tell others what they can or cannot listen to. Certainly, you cannot go even further and judge it based upon race.
I mean, did you ever stop to think that there are many White artists that White people listen to which aren't necessarily the best "role models" in the opinion of some, or whose content could be categorized as "questionable" by someone?
I don't like Justin Bieber's music, but does that give me the right to ban the millions of White fans he has from listening to him? I'd be violating their rights.Last edited by SunSpace; 09-01-2016, 10:44 AM.

People should kind of heed "that which does not kill you makes you stronger".
This multiracial tag team set on driving white people into the ground and blaming them for everything, excluding them from college admissions/scholarships, brushing it under the rug when they're disproportionately victimized...
What do you think you're doing exactly? What's your endgame? You'e going to turn a bunch of soft ******* white people who just want to play with their model railroads into a bunch of hardened separatists.
I just don't get it. Nobody really believes white supremacy is still amok in the US. White people more or less voluntarily gave the US away when they could have easily taken over the world.
This new anti-racism obsession will backfire hard. I meet a lot of guys who were gay as **** ******** until they realized they'll never be accepted because they're white. They get hardened by all the scapegoating.

It's almost like the outgoing hippie generation chose trophy ********** over their own offspring (which was the measure of coolness in the day), who are now ***************, abandoning mainstream society moving way further to the right just to thrive.
I don't really see that much tension with Hispanics. Probably due to the fact that hispanic itself includes multiple racial groups. That's more just a straight up policy issue (border) than a domestic racial conflict. Similar to how most middle eastern issues relate to their opinions on Islam, not our racial backgound.
