The progressive ideal is largely to blame for the monstrous creation that is ghetto culture. The idea that racial narcissism among blacks should not only be tolerated but celebrated has led to a surge in open animosity for societal rules and standards within the US. Far more than any other group, the black community makes up the largest share of physical crime according to their percentage of the population. This includes robbery, aggravated assault, and homicides.
For example, black Americans make up only 13% of the population but commit around 52% of all homicides according to FBI statistics. The recent case of Karmelo Anthony comes to mind, a black teen who admitted to stabbing a white teen and killing him because the white teen allegedly “pushed him” (which he argues was a threat that made deadly force justifiable).
The concept of “disrespect” as an offense that justifies murder is only one problem. There is an identifiable trend of theatrical sociopathy within the black community that goes far beyond the norm. The prevailing theory is that this is predominantly cultural – Black Americans have the highest rate of single parent households in the country (50% of black homes compared to 20% of white homes in 2023). Most of these households are run by single mothers. Single mother homes are a notorious indicator of future criminality among juveniles.
Then there is the problem of racial victim culture; the false idea that black Americans are being “oppressed” in the US by a systemic conspiracy of white patriarchs. In reality, white Americans have been exponentially tolerant and have provided special privileges for blacks (affirmative action and DEI), largely because progressive society demands that reparations be made for slavery 150 years ago and segregation 60 years ago. The form of those reparations has more or less been white guilt and a quiet passiveness in the face of increasing antagonism.
Leftists claim white people should take it because historically they deserve it. Ignore the fact that every culture on Earth had institutional slavery and all the slaves sent to the Americas were purchased from African tribes that enslaved other African tribes.
However, it appears that the black community’s precious supply of white guilt has finally run out and people are fed up. The term “Black Fatigue” has gone viral this week on social media, sparking a much needed conversation among not just whites, but also blacks and other minorities. The catalyst blamed for the trend is the now widely known “Shiloh Hendrix Incident” which has led to public support and an uproar among progressives who demand the woman be prosecuted for dropping an N-bomb.
Re: The concept of “disrespect”.
I think it was the 1990s when “dissing” someone included looking at them. Looking too long at a black man was considered reason for him to attack you physically.
Asking that much special privilege was a bridge too far for most people.
Exactly.
Why doesn’t TYLER DURDEN sweep the Putzer Prizes year after year?

....as one of my more cynical neighbors used to say, “13 per cent of the population; 95 per cent of the whining.....” hell, here in Texas a young white guy recently got shot to death for the horrible insult of accidentally running his hand along the side of a black man’s MBenz.....ghetto behavior...??
Heard about a woman named Oprah Winfrey. Has to live in a shack made of nailed together doors and hammered flat trash cans, in a vacant lot behind an auto salvage place. Sits on old car bench seats and eats canned beans and rice.
She thinks her net worth is over 3.7 billion dollars.
Her friend David Steward believes he is an IT entrepreneur worth 11.4 billion dollars and another, Robert Smith is a private equity magnate worth 10.8 billion.
They all get together to share the deposit money from picking up returnable cans and bottles from alleys.

Actually, when did all of them look like that with those friendly smiles? They look harmless and nice. Wonder what all the controversy was about? /S
Back in the late 80's I went to sick call in the Army and the black Dr. apparently thought I looked too long at him, all of a sudden he noticed I was overdue for a prostate exam and he lubed the glove up with what felt like possibly Naval Jelly.
Try to unthink the image as I will.
In the movie Fletch, Chevy Chase as the detective was getting an exam like that from a doctor.
“Did you ever work in a Turkish prison?”
Open season on ghettopatomuses?
The Michael Brown shooting and Hands Up Don’t Shoot. All lies.
If America is a racist country please explain how blacks (and other minorities) can come to this country and find success?
It is not white racism keeping blacks poor, it is a black culture that began with Johnson’s Great society. When they made the condition for receiving government help that no man be in the house, and second they based the payment on the number of children. The Democrats created this situation where the government became the “bread winner” and the more children she had the more government assistance she would receive. This wasn’t a “bug” in the system, this was a “feature” Johnson and other Democrats created.
The great lie that blacks have fallen for is the Democrats want to help them. The Democrats the party of slavery, the party of the KKK the party of Jim Crow laws, yes those Democrats.
And those lies were all perpetuated by the left.
I’m not sure.

Sorry you can’t have one without the other. The “one” produces the “other”.
They need to add Meghan Markle in as Wannabee Spice.
I've heard the same thing about wolves. Don't stare a wolf in the eyes. He'll interpret it as a hostile gesture.
