It doesn't take me very much time or effort to copy and paste factual information about systemic racism.
Maybe you should let go of your incorrect opinion, or post something to explain/support your view. I mean, if you actually want to have a conversation. Remember, I'm open minded and willing to listen to and consider what you have to say, if and when you ever actually decide to do so.
But maybe you're right and I should walk away since it has become clear you are not an intellectually honest person and never intended this to be a real conversation, just another boring troll thread. -

2020-07-29 at 1:11 AM UTCFactual information is information that solely deals with facts. It is short and non-explanatory. The best place to find factual information is in reference books such as encyclopedias and almanacs.

You do understand that many of the facts in the sources you reccomend have change more than once in the last 80 years? -

Right, so why bother trusting anything in the encyclopedia at all, useless rubbish that book.
I'm willing to listen to and consider your views aldra, post something that demonstrates my sources are incorrect, post something that supports your view.
I don't believe you are stupid, you have reasons to have the opinion you do. Share those reasons with me. -

Do you understand that information is only published after it is approved? There are many facts that are not aprroved. -

It's not that, it's just that you shouldn't take 'established facts' at face value. You can't just post a bunch of links and assume they're wholly correct just because they've been published. Trust is the worst.

If you're interested in seriously discussing this please make a new thread, the last few pages are just total faggotry and it's hard to keep up with the conversation before that -

I summarized the "conversation":
Originally posted by Obbe Rabbitweed requested a definition of systemic racism and real life examples which fit that definition, so that we may have a constructive conversation about it.
After being given a definition and real life examples which fit that definition, rabbitweed ducked and doged and eventually left the thread.
He could not or would not challenge the definition or the evidence.
He offered his worthless opinion on the topic, stating his belief that systemic racism is a conspiracy theory, although he did not deliver any reasoning as to why he thought that nor any evidence that might support his theory.
Explain why you don't trust the wikipedia page on systemic racism or it's sources. Please offer your alternative theory on systemic racism, and reasons why we should trust you instead. -

I've had two coffees. I may actually have a beer tonight, meeting with an old friend. But two max. My business won't build itself up. -
2020-07-29 at 1:43 AM UTCI literally just smoked weed.

Wikipedia is not a source in academic circles. Next question.
