    I understand what he said, being also an old white male, but I have never personally felt that I was in a disadvantaged group.
    Quite the opposite.
    I think that the daily reception many blacks feel in the US from their so-called colleagues is a sort of banal bigotry that isn’t so overt but runs under the surface of their personal and social interactions with minorities.
    It’s the little things whites take for granted that are often denied blacks that we ignore and it builds resentments.
    For example, I have never gone to a hotel swimming pool or a store or restaurant and had the cops called on me for simply being white.
    Racism is a deep historical stain on the way many whites still react to blacks.
    The people who are attacking blm are likely the worst offenders when it comes to racial hatred.

    What do you expect after 4 years of trump? They know how bigly he’s ****ed up.
    It will take the next potus years to undo his damage, although it won’t help the thousands he already killed because of his selfish incompetence.

    Some of the damage that trump has done to our international alliances is going to be hard to reverse.

    It is good to know that BLM radicals despise virtue signaling white liberals as much if not more than white conservatives. Until you give up your wealth, home and occupation to POC, you are just virtue signalling. This is why the mob is increasingly coming for liberal whites in power. Check out Seattle, a mob of 2000 protested outside of the liberal white mayor's house and the MSM deep sixed the story (only local coverage). BLM is not about equality, it is about revenge. Liberal whites have borne the brunt of that rage thus far and it will most likely accelerate in the future. One of my great fears is that white liberals will begin flooding our communities as they flee the violence. I have as much love for white liberals as BLM does.

    Sorry. I'm white. I am not going to don sack cloth and ashes but I fully support BLM...and always have

    Those who call that "virtue signaling" are doing nothing but "signaling" their own opposition to what BLM is saying.

    THEY don't see a problem with incidents like the George Floyd murder

    Reasonable people with quality values are almost always able to get along, regardless of politics. If people treat me with respect- they are in return treated with respect, and respect is always my first presentation in meeting anyone. IF they prove that is a mistake, then the relationship will change. It has a lot to do with fundamentals values, how a person is raised.

    You just personally attacked me. I'm an old white male. Was it my whiteness? My maleness? My age?

    Or did you take issue with WHAT I ****ING SAID...

    Please calm down and read what I wrote. I did not attack you. You attacked the author of the OP with: "Huh? Maybe it's your personality. Ever think of that?"

    Once you state: "Huh? Maybe it's your personality. Ever think of that?" it becomes an irrational & hysterical personal attack which helps support the fact that there is an irrational hatred toward older, white, men especially by the selectively offended & chronically outraged bigots who comprise BLM etc.

    So using one of your examples the cops are called in blacks in the swimming pool:

    every time?
    The vast majority of the time?
    Most of the time?
    Frequently?
    Some of the time?
    Semi-frequently?
    Almost never?
    Once or twice on youtube a couple years ago.

    That's all blacks, an entire year, all pools, only reported by whites. toss me a ballpark figure on the number of instances in 2020 and the % of instances compared to overall pool visits. And dont forget to cross check to see if maybe the persons deserved the call because they were being idiots.

    Oh, if an old white lady gets body slammed, start a new category for that one I guess.

    Sounds a bit paranoid to me. Did you feel a rage at seeing these signs? Maybe saw a little girl putting them up and wanted to assault her like this guy did over in Maryland / D.C.?

    When you feel this old white male hatred, does it make you stronger?



    Where are you when you feel this dark side of the force? Do you feel it riding on the Lisbon trail, among the 97% white folk of Lisbon? Do you live in Lisbon? Maybe you live Youngstown where the white and black populations are about equal at 40% each?

    That is a GROSS MISREPRESENTATION of what Oprah actually said in your link!

    Her comment was directed SPECIFICALLY at white supremacist RACISTS!

    Unless you SELF IDENTIFY with that group she was NOT talking about you at all!

    Sad!

    Virtual signaling, in my opinion, is promoting a slogan that sounds good but holds no meaning and thus no commitment. It's for looks not for change.

    Do these promoters of "Hate has no home here" advocate for policies that back up the slogan? Do they want low income section 8 housing built within their wealthy neighborhoods? Do they REALLY welcome a 20% increase of minorities in their city? Do they advocate making their city a welcome home to legal and illegal immigrants? Are they welcoming homeless to their parks and motels? Do they have a clue?

    Or does it feel good to shout out slogans that have no tangible meaning, no policies and no threat to their way of life?

    Perhaps he looks at the the crime rate of Youngstown and compares it to his town and asks himself why Liberals continually hold up the most violent places in America as good and the safest places as evil. Liberals sure as hell are welcome to live in the most dangerous places and raise their children there, just stay the hell out of our communities.

    It's odd, to me, how many 'terms' are used today as an insult or accusation. The words, themselves, indicate a goodness of sorts. Virtue signaling, social justice warriors, woke - all of those, as words, I support.

    Like you, I think its a great sign to have in a neighborhood. It shows community support. It tells those who might feel less comfortable that they are welcome - that they have a place in that community.

    How do you feel about Republicans who make blacks in black neighborhoods wait 8 hours in lines to vote but only 20 minutes in white neighborhoods, whereupon the solution is mail in voting and we have president who is against mail in voting?

    Hmmmm?

    That statement is dripping with racism Oprah!!! It isn't what she said so much as the hatred in her tone. How did this woman become a spokesperson for her race or an authority on anything. It seems she pretty effectively erased her past because it never comes up but some of us are old enough to remember that she started out with and became wealthy off the backs of her own that she exploited. Her big break came with a Jerry Springer type show that took advantage of poor ignorant people by luring them to the show to air their dirty laundry for the audiences entertainment. She, Springer and Maury Povich invented voyeurismTV and became filthy rich doing it.They are monumental hypocrites yet there is no shortage of morons who adore them. These are clear examples of the kind of collective brainwashing that the left and their confederates in the media have been so successful at. This is how a single death in Minneapolis turned into a national reign of terror, we cannot abridge free speech but this kind of **** needs to stop, it is tantamount to yelling fire in a crowded theater.

    Then how do you know they hate you? Are you sure it is you, specifically, that they hate? Can you describe an incident that leads you to believe this?

    For example, twice now I've been treated to sneering and being called a "liberal thug" and a "know-it-all b!tch" for wearing a mask and gloves at the local supermarket.

    You are welcome to your rant, but it addresses none of the questions I asked of CKW....

    It certainly isn't clear to me that he lives in Lisbon. And if he does then I find it odd that he feels this old white man hatred in such a predominantly white little town.
