They should really add racism to the list of examples, because blaming every problem in the world on that is also a thought-terminating cliché.
Why are black people poorer on average than white ones? — Racism
Okay, why are there more black athletes in many professional sports like basketball or football? Also racism? — No, it’s because they have a higher likelihood of having natural talent for these sports.
See how that works? As soon as you’ve pinned the problem on racism, you’re done investigating. Just like with common sense.
Before you even bother trying to correct this person, keep in mind that they are also so unbelievably stupid that they think ICE is arresting criminals.
Entering the country illegally IS a crime. Just because the previous administration tolerated it doesn’t mean it’s not.
Wdym? I don’t like potatoes much. Too sweet.
Uhh then don’t eat them?
Peanut butter is sour af. Nutella is honestly better.
If you think potatoes are sweet and peanut butter is sour, I think it might be a good idea to go see a doctor. Could be a neurological issue.
No it’s not Brazil, it’s spain
I’m just going to address your comment about Black people and sports.
Black people do not have a higher natural talent in sports, for Black youth sports is one of the only ways to achieve success, so they place a higher emphasis on sports. It’s evident because they are only dominant in the sports they have access to.
Pointing out that you harbor racist sentiments is not thought terminating, it’s apparent in your writing.
Okay, so you’re saying racism actually IS the only reason black people are overrepresented in those sports, have I got that right?
Shouldn’t we then maybe implement a diversity quota system in order to give more white and Asian players a chance to compete? Seems kinda unfair to exclude them, don’t you think? Perhaps if more of them had a chance become highly paid sports stars, they’d be less overrepresented in engineering or finance.
