Aunt Jemima, Gone. Lol

For you, you mean. It doesn't exist for you.

Really? So that's the standard? Well, that was easy.

 

This is what they should have said.

Talk about moving the goal posts. Oppression is only if people are forced into labor according to good old captain obvious.

 

It doesn't exist for anyone in this country. Just because someone isn't getting everything their heart desires does not mean they're oppressed. it just means they're spoiled and think they deserve something simply because they want it.

 

So explain to me exactly who in this country is oppressed and how they are being oppressed.

 

I think you are living in a different world than the one you keep talking about.

 

Ok we now know the context of Cap'n posts if no one is oppressed at all and there is 0 racism. It makes it easier to see where someone is coming from when they post.

 

Little boys often become fascinated by 'bad words' at a certain age. I don't think the lads have got past the comic strip years.

That said I don't agree with renaming things in other English speaking nations because they happen to be derogatory in the US but mean nothing there. We have more than enough of American stupid spreading about already.

 

Oppression and individual racism are two entirely different things.

 

Well to be fair there are billions of dollars and hundreds of research facilities attacking cancer daily as we speak. Not only in this country and around the world. And if you want my opinion there is no cure for cancer, only better treatments. I would say I can google hundreds of sites committed to fighting human trafficking and there are even some world organizations getting involved.

Sound economic policy ......I think the White Houst and Congress prove why that is not going to happen.

Changing the figure on a syrup bottle is actually quite easy but it seems no one cared for 40 years or so to do anything about it. People did not riot or protest to change the bottle for sure. But it is funny that that is what it took for people to listen to the SMALL things...

That is what is scary. It took Congress 100 years after slavery to decide laws were needed to offer equal protection under the law or to simply enforce what the Constitution already said but no one paid attention to. It was 90 years after slavery before Blacks in the South were allowed to go to a school that had white in many parts of the country. It has taken 160 years after the Civil War for the South to start admitting they lost the war..
