    Nope. Nobody with an IQ over 60 is buying that ridiculous narrative.

    https://www.americanprogress.org/issues/race/reports/2018/02/21/447051/systematic-inequality/

    "Unfortunately, wealth in this country is unequally distributed by race—and particularly between white and black1 households.2 African American families have a fraction of the wealth of white families, leaving them more economically insecure and with far fewer opportunities for economic mobility".

    "Several key factors exacerbate this vicious cycle of wealth inequality. Black households, for example, have far less access to tax-advantaged forms of savings, due in part to a long history of employment discrimination and other discriminatory practices. A well-documented history of mortgage market discrimination means that blacks are significantly less likely to be homeowners than whites,3 which means they have less access to the savings and tax benefits that come with owning a home".

    "Black households have fewer and are in greater need of personal savings than their white counterparts. For a variety of reasons, blacks are more likely to experience negative income shocks but are less likely to have access to emergency savings. As a consequence, blacks are more likely to fall behind on their bills and go into debt during times of emergency."

    ...times of emergency, like the present pandemic...

    Demoralisation is associated entrenched systemic poverty, including race-based poverty.

    Certainly a white supremicists would want to deny this...

    So..."an economy that works for all" is a conspiracy theory?

    Let's see: can we agree that wide-spread demoralisation related to poverty amongst US blacks is real?

    You don't know that. You simply want it to be false. I get it.

    I won't jump on that bandwagon without proof, but it would not surprise me.

    Is that demoralization true only for Blacks in poverty, or does it effect the middle class and rich as well? And what does it have to do with your contention that White supremacists are behind the rioting?

    You continue to self-embarass with each post, my friend. Thank you for continuing to show no self awareness.

    Yawn cool story, talk about self embarrassing, that’s what you did with starting this thread , but you don’t know that, because you have no self awareness.
    Now off to bed with you, before your mom finds out you’re talking to strangers on the internet.

    No stupider than the "Antifa done it!" nonsense.

    The Democrats done it.

    They done it with their lockdowns which harmed black folk more than most.

    Black lives?

    They don't matter to the Democrat Party.

    Only black votes.

    The demoralisation of entrenched, systemic poverty - the outcome of neoliberalism - occurs in the affected individuals, regardless of race.

    I assume you are only referring to black poverty: I notice Michael Jordan condemning Floyd's murder...but being wealthy and privileged, he apparently doesn't see why the incidence of poverty falls more heavily on members of his own race.

    You should note all the groups I listed as possible targets of blame for the riots. The only comment about white supremacists I would make in regard to the riots is that they are incapable of seeing both the reality and the causes of entrenched black disadvantage.

    The tolerance of entrenched poverty affecting a minority, by the majority of the population, renders peaceful protest ineffective... hence the descent into criminal rioting - placing the police in the impossible situation of maintaining "law and order", in an unjust system. That's why Antifa exists...because of an unjust system.

    That doesn't explain at all why white kids from upper class backgrounds are rioting. No body knows the trouble they've seen (on Youtube)?

    All ANTIFA groups are white supremacist groups. Have you seen the way they treat blacks like Candice Owens or when theyre confronted by black police?
