Per interviews with some minorities, the best examples of systemic racism/discrimination is in the African American and Asian American households. Many black kids are made to feel as though they don’t belong in the community if they are respectable, well spoken, and educated. In Asian culture, if you don’t excel in academics and work, you are shunned by your family. They expect you to out-do your peers and not merely compete with them. Seems like that type of treatment is ingrained by culture, therefore, systemic.

I bet it is higher than this count. And that probably 95-100% of the nations of the world had slavery at one time or another.
STUDY: Slavery not crime for half countries in world...
After the Bloomberg quote, I was thinking about this whole systemic racism stuff. I now think it exists in the following ways:
1) The left believes that, because of skin color, certain segments of the population are unable to compete in a free and open economy. They don't believe these people are capable of taking care of themselves and need nice white people to give them basic sustenance just to keep them alive.
2) They enter every election cycle believing that people of color will vote as a block to keep the nice white people in power, because to do otherwise would be tantamount to self genocide. You can see how they really feel about this when you see how they treat anyone who dares think for themselves and vote outside of their defined block.
3) When they (the left) focus on something that actually might help these communities (like stop and frisk to disarm people likely to kill innocent others in that same community), they view it as a racial profiling operation and don't miss the opportunity to arrest and jail those they stop for minor crimes (like weed possession), which leaves them with a record that will inhibit them from gaining employment and attaining economic equality (which is the REAL equality) in America.
I can see why the left sees systemic racism everywhere, because they are creating that environment themselves.
Bumping this as to not further muck up the George Floyd and Terrorism threads.
So the Managing Director of BLM, was on Reddit today for a "Ask me Anything" discussion. I don't do reddit, but apparently it did not go well, especially when people pressed her on funding, and questions she did not want to answer. She ended up ending the Ask me Anything.
Here is where the discussions have to start. Anyone, regardless of party affiliation or race, that says differently is a fraud.

"And so when people start to talk about systemic racism built into the system, what they're really doing is expanding the territory of 'entitlement,'" Steele said.
"[I]t's a corruption because the truth of the matter is, blacks have never been less oppressed than they are today. Opportunity is around every corner," he explained, adding that the activists in this case rarely make time for self-reflection.
Steele asked rhetorically whether those who feel oppressed or underprivileged have taken "some responsibility" and taking positive action like examining the education system in their neighborhoods or whether they are pursuing a tangible goal for their life.

"I don't know what systemic racism is. Maybe someone can explain what that means," he told "Tucker Carlson Tonight." Carlson responded by asserting that it was "a way to make people be quiet and stop asking questions about economics, as far as I can tell."
"It's more class than it is race ... and now race is being used to deflect attention away from the failures of people running those institutions," he added. "The question is why are black kids failing in school systems run by their own people?"
"When Eric Holder was a U.S. Attorney in Washington, D.C., a lot of young people were shot by the police, but they were black police shooting black kids and not one was prosecuted. But there was no public outcry because as long as illegality or evil wears a black face, then it escapes detection and that's what's wrong with looking life through the prism of race."
"In the past 50 years, $22 trillion has been spent on poverty programs. Seventy percent goes not to the poor but those who serve poor people," he said.
"So many of those people taking office use this money to create a class of people who are running these cities, and now after 50 years of liberal Democrats running the inner cities, where we have all of these inequities that we have, race is being used as a ruse, as a means of deflecting attention away from critical questions such as why are poor blacks failing in systems run by their own people?"
Your white fragility is keeping you and Tucker from engaging with the issue.
What does this even mean?? That's such a BS statement, like many other new made up terms such as "Toxic Masculinity", "Gender Fluid", "Non Binary".
