Canadian whites under fire for refusing to more to the back of a concert

[Rav1nHunter]

Idiots like this create the very thing they claim to fight against.

 

[Devout Pessimist]

Seems like it was resolved appropriately. The artist removed the individual and the concert supported the artist's action and distanced themselves from the individual.

What am I missing here?

It's called acceptable racism against whites.

 

[Throttlehead]

Some of you guys bath in this crap. Get mad, go back to your corners and get ready for the next fringe idiot to do something stupid so you can pretend its the norm in your life. If you go looking for idiots and outrage, its pretty easy to find, its up to you how you want to proceed with your select outrage.

SJW and snowflakes are everywhere on every side these days.

 

[InternetHero]

That is literally racism.

Well in the case of most social destruction crusaders they insist the "other" is racist through implicit and impossible to eliminate bias, an original sin of racism that the dominant culture, sorry, I mean race will always have.

Along with other codified as well as unfounded reasons to disperse the seeds of hate and resentment, such as institutional racism in most contexts, will do just fine to damn the other with that original sin.

But... should someone on their team actually be a real racist and say "hey that group of skin tone is my type of people" and promote it, that is much, much more forgivable despite the obvious hypocrisy and literal racism because, he/they/them are just the oppressed people facing implicit bias and...

See?

There is no way to escape the hypocrisy in this endless maze of double speak and double standards.

Do you think that an event like this would be a pretty minor media happening if it were Jews or LBTQ-people that were told to move to the back?

Sure, but that is the thing we must not lose sight of, that the house of hypocrisy cards does not fall, because the thinker has theories that literally state race/class/gender discrepancies in society trump or partially excuse real racist, sexist, ECT. sentiment.

Feminists who overlook Clinton's serial depredation, yet would give Bill Clinton fellatio because he protects the right to choose.

The right can be just as guilty of this cognitive blindness (See Uncle Donald for details,) but the left is much better at this, because they will warp or create any theory they can to distort reality.

The right is partly not smart enough to do that, part of the answer therein lies in the "right is anti-intellectual thread," the other half of the right holds the notion that such thinking is wrong and utterly subjective, but there are few intellectuals to push back, let alone do the research (if allowed by academia) to push back.

Something like implicit bias has thinner ice than a Las Vegas snowstorm in March, but as a weaponized idea, it is already a potent projectile against truth and understanding.

Honestly, who cares? If you want to constantly find or see things where race is an issue because of what one or a few people do, it seems you want race to be an issue. If thats your thing, fine.

Well put!

If a person truly believes in a post-tribalistic human race that will give birth to a healthy citizen patriotism, then he or she must work for a loyality to the universal, which in turn means to betray the particulate and that only works if you are not only attacking other "ingroups".

As long as you villify and blindly accepts racism towards the majority or other groups, then there will never be a society that moves past tribalism.

Well, if a person wants to see and experience a post-tribalistic society that is based on a healthy dose of citizen patriotism that is devoid of racism and fighting between different ingroups, then surely, taking stand against blatant racism is a good start regardless of the victims' colours.

Who is more obsessed with the concept? The left or right?

Would most on the modern right prefer a color blind society where race and gender are judged on their merit and not for their sex or color?

I left out class, because class is what the left should be doing the most to give all people a fair shot at attaining equality in and in breaking down barriers, but does it not feel that we on the left who support fairer wealth strategies sold out on class to these vulgarities of thought?

I agree, however, in my opinion the good universal concepts are being destroyed for repugnant new thought experiments that have the ID of the experimenter in mind more than the good of the people.

I was thinking of that today in the extreme, imagining Chairm/an Ma/o literally murdering millions of people because he despised their thoughts and that they would not play by "his" rules of the universe.

 

[RIPWarrior]

how did that remain unresolved?

Some hardcore progress in this thread.

 

[RIPWarrior]

Did you know that it's actually racist to notice racism against white people?

 

[RIPWarrior]

Don't worry white people, you will love being a minority!

 

[InternetHero]

White doesn't even matter.

What is it mean if you are an American? That you are Dutch, Irish, French?

If you're part black, part native, part this or that it gives you more race points?

Only if you celebrate that heritage and do not 'sell out"? Or are you by every drop of blood? Or both or?

What if you are a half black, half native whose great, great, great grandfather was an Abolitionist who fought for the North? Are you king of the world by virtue of group of identity?

Curse the callous calculus of humanity we have created!

 

[Hard To Tell]

You know you're getting old when you can remember the time leftists and liberals were against racial segregation.

Seems like the singer was doing that the rest of us just calling bullshit

What am I missing here?

Just to be clear if the roles were reversed, and poc were told to go to the back, you wouldn't have a problem with it?

@panamaican

You never responded. Can you clarify your position?
