Originally posted by Meikai Hmmmmm. The idea of "systemic _____" would be more that if we restarted society with 25 of each and ran it the way people blaming "systemic" issues for the disproportionate representation in crime statistics want to, we'd see each group committing roughly 25% of every crime (because there's one race: the human race, and we shouldn't observe significant differences in behavior across racial lines without the social/historical/economic pressures that exist in our society).
(Although we'd need more than 25 of each - with a population of 100, we're liable to see some wonky outcomes. Maybe one year 9 asians get busted for selling weed and all of a sudden a HUGE proportion of asians are drug dealers, but obviously that's not really relevant to what you're asking. Just to say that ideally we'd want a ton of each if we were going to prepare statistical rates of anything between them.)
But maybe that IS relevant to what I'm asking. As soon as the majority proportion of the Asians are drug dealers, people start saying well, wtf, asians are clearly drug dealers. They're the ones doing the most drug dealings. I hate drugs and now I hate asians.
But was it there fault in the first place? Or it was just circumstance to begin with and then things got of hand and then blah blah blah psychological shit and then you get millions of billions of people of their respective races doing the same thing that they by circumstance just happened to do in the first place.
I always defer to the fact it that it just sucks that we're born with brain we are, the race we are, the whatever we are.
If Jiggaboo Johnson was a black man, would he be here as the same person? Would he make be racist against himself? Would he be happy and proud to be who he was? Would he be a good person or a bad person? Would it have ANYTHING to do with him being born black or would he take sole responsibility for how he is? etc etcThe following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

Originally posted by Meikai Depends. If you believe there are hundreds of mass shootings each year, that's mostly gang violence. Whites definitely have a near monopoly on that particularly fucked up stochastic terroristic kind of mass shooting though. The boys going for a new high score are almost always deracinated "white" amerimutts.
As for rape and pedophilia, whites - as with serial killing - do commit most of the crimes… but then, whites make up most of the population. From what I can find the rates aren't perfectly proportionate to population (to be clear: rates are disproportionately higher - huwhites are naughty), but the same is also true for blacks. I'd be interested in what happens when we control for "white" MENA individuals (we all know who the 'grooming gangs' in the UK and Europe are). 🤷♀️
Is this where the 'systemic' term comes from?
Like if the population were eradicated and we started over with 25 whites 25 blacks 25 Asians and 25 Hispanics (for the sake of simplicity) would all these statistics stay the same evenly or would they change based on 'systemic' stuff.
Or if 1 person of every race was born, isolated from the world, on their own island, how would they be growing up? Would they be predisposed to certain behaviors or would they just have behaviors that later on got disposed onto them?

Originally posted by Meikai I agree but like… if someone is going to rape you with a beer bottle, it's probably not going to be another woman doing it right? That's "a men thing" to do to a woman. Not all men rape women and not all rapes are committed by men, but statistical realities dictate that it's entirely reasonable for a woman to be wary of them. Ignoring the threat they pose completely would be fucking stupid. Not ignoring it is sexist, but like… that's not necessarily a bad thing. The optimal amount of misandry, misogyny, and racial prejudice is not 0.
I don't think every black person is retarded. I don't think every black person is more likely to engage in criminal behavior. I don't even think that the statistical reality for race is as stark as it is for biological sex. But uhh, "not as bad/significant" doesn't mean "non-existent". I can accept that you're a ~good person (in that really shitty "church gossip condemning supposed sinners in the congregation to hell" kinda way, but I digress). And like… man, it's not like my views are solely informed by FBI statistics or something; my "LiVeD ExPErIeNcES" do not give me much reason to expect good behavior from melanated individuals either. Being openly racist is improper and my family is extremely white (ie impropriety is verboten), so it's not like there was any vertical transfer of beliefs involved here: it's solely statistics and having lived around y'all.
When stats and personal observation line up, expecting people to ignore that to their own potential detriment is fucking retarded. So I'm not going to play that game. I'll give people a chance if they seem decent. If they unnecessarily start shit, I will chalk them up as part of the reason stereotypes exist (*cough*). Doesn't mean every black woman and every black man is a walking stereotype, but enough of 'em definitely are. Simple as.

jajaja I thought a grinch arc was some medical term for like a pacemaker or some stent near your heart arteries. YOU FOOLED ME. fool me once shame on me.
I guess I've somehow really seen The Grinch. Or paid enough attention to know about the heart growth thing. I have watched some episodes of Winnie the Pooh though. I wonder how much he weighs.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

2023-08-17 at 3:29 PM UTC in I wanted to be a lawyerTalking yourself out of being a lawyer is one of the most lawyerish things you could do lol.
Maybe you could still be a paralegal or something. Someone who more sits in the background, not the spotlight, just preparing arguments and helping lawyers while not having to do the heavy lifting so-to-speak.
Of course you'd still have to interact with folks but it would be easier to ease into it, and with time, like anything, your social skills would likely improve with the territory.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -
