Yeah I’m of the mind that the antisemitic black guys who likely feed into the antisemitic rhetoric that includes the attacking left,globalism, and Whatever other boogeyman are are infact, voting for trump.

Yeah this thread is off the rails right now. Never seen so much right wing bullshit in this sub.

I'm not right wing. I fucking hate Donald Trump. I'm quite far left and extremely anti racist. That kind of comes with being in an interracial marriage and having black kids.

But no. This was not done by a trump supporter. I wish it were. It would make it easier to not have to confront a serious fucking issue. But ignoring shit like this is not a good idea.

Edit. Someone above asked for a source for what I'm. Talking about in regards to the race aspect. https://www.jns.org/other-minorities-committing-vast-majority-of-antisemitic-assaults-in-nyc/

Again: I fucking hate this shit. But it's an actual problem.

…Your source is saying that minorities can in fact be racist. This isn’t a new conversation or shocking, nor does it dispute what anyone was discussing. Him being black doesn’t remove the fact that most overt racists tend to gravitate towards a certain worldview that reflects in their politics.

Also, I’m gonna say this with the best of intentions, dont bring your kids into a conversation about race. As a biracial person, I’m telling you that if I found out my white parent was using me and my other parent to act as an authority on discussions of race it would make me uncomfortable. It’s weird and almost as bad as “I have a black friend.” I promise you. You can join into these conversations if you’re sensitive, capable of introspection, and willing to listen/learn, you don’t need to add the qualifier of your children.

That's not what it says. That's not even close to what it says. It says that 3 percent of hate crimes against jews are committed by white people in NYC. So when this sort of thing happens, trying to paint it as white trump supporters is statistically unlikely.

Almost 70 percent are initiated by black people. That's a real actual problem. Hence why everyone knew how this case would go. It was the statistically likely option.

No one is using anyone. But let's not claim someone is a right wing racist for pointing out the obvious facts here. For complaining about racism. (My wife and kids enjoy talking about race, actually. Especially this sort of thing, as they've been victimized by black racism. But thanks for the advice without knowing anything)

But yeah, unfortunately qualifications are needed when someone tries to paint you as a right wing racist, who doesn't like black people, LOL. Come with that silly shit and I'll point out the obvious. Perhaps you misunderstood me? I was pointing out that the reason I'm so anti racist....is because I have to be for my family's sake . I didn't think it would be difficult, especially for someone like you, to understand.

Youre personal experience is your experience. No one else's. And your promises dont mean much, especially in light of the accusations presented.

I'm standing against racism by calling it out. Not sure what y'all are doing.

Who here painted you as a racist, bud? Are they in the room with us? Seems like a victim complex to me.

Trump supporters… can be black. The whole OP is about a black man committing a hate crime and vandalizing shit. This seems to be coming from your own feelings towards whiteness and the assumptions that follow.

I’m glad your wife and kids enjoy talking about race, me too. I’m not sure any black or biracial person enjoys being used by a white partner or family member as a way to bolster their own opinion with strangers on the internet. Genuinely, ask your wife if she wants to be used for karma on reddit.

You’re popping into a thread and getting mad at the people pointing out that there are black Trump supporters and that there’s no purpose in bringing up Trump unless one is purposefully being inflammatory. I don’t see you speaking out against any of the other genuine racists that have popped into this thread. That’s so wild to me, saying you’re anti-racist, propping your family up as proof you care (which lmao I’m biracial ‘mY fAmIlY iS bLaCk’ literally means nothing to me and ignoring the fact that caring doesn’t stop the potential for racism, but that would mean being capable of any introspection which you seem to lack), and then doing nothing in a sea of racists except getting mad that people point out black Trump supporters exist. Lmao you’re a joke.

But damn, white saviour to the rescue!!! What will us poor poc do without you, Mr. Black Family Man?

Edit: You bring up your family on a regular basis for reddit arguments based off your comment history. Oof, bud. They’re more than props, and it takes more than having a couple of children to be anti-racist. No one in the thread you originally replied to was denying black people commit hate crimes. They were criticizing the original comment that brought up Trump and rightfully brought up there are still black Trump supporters. No one brought up white Trump supporters or denied the fact that a black man committed a crime. That all came from you, and you using your family to justify the tirade is weird as hell. I’d say it’s racist but you definitely seem like the type to immediately claim I’m calling you a racist. Psych “especially in light of the accusations presented” lmaoooo Anti-racist can’t handle being told that their actions can be interpreted as racist. Sounds about right.
