85% of the population of the planet is POC (People of Color) ... The 15% of the population in the “majority” white countries, created the ONLY countries that have positive rates of immigration. IOW, 85% of the population of the planet didn’t create the sorts of places that people are drawn to, the 15% did.

There is an industry of white hate, this article being an example, wherein the 85% majority convolute provincial race discussion with “majority minority” and “minority majority” and “white privilege” because there is money in it, and scholarships, and an added 200 points on your SATs, and multi-trillion dollar investments in POC communities that turn into Detroit/Baltimore/Trenton/etc., when they are handed off to Democrat/black rule. Even that is whitey’s fault.

Apparently there is a big, bright, beautiful world where everyone lives in harmony and peace outside of majority white countries, but none of the people of color spending their lives acting like victims of “whiteness” can afford a plane ticket.

It seems to me that the biker gang incident which left so may dead people behind was just that a gang-related murder spree.

That is not a riot. A riot is a large group of people who are in grievance mode and who go about destroying property, both public and private simply to assuage their anger. Destruction of everything in sight is their modus operandi. Any deaths which occur during a riot are secondary to the looting, burning and destruction.

The number of perpetrators involved — not to mention the nine deaths — far exceed the typical urban gang-related shooting. Maybe there was some gang incident in Chicago like this decades ago. But this sort of pitched battle? I’ve never heard of anything like it.
Author should long ponder the meaning of it, that this is what happens when melanin-deficient Americans "riot".

I pretty much skipped over the hate-a-thon about "media bias" : The author wanted to make a nifty coinage like "honkey riot" (try "bullet hurricane", author), but didn't have the guts to do it, being invested in Fred Rogers sociology.

[Second article/long quote] " .... , how one sees themselves is often a reflection of precisely how they are not members of a given group."

Call the grammar ambulance. Tell them to bring extra units of the category of number.

Long way to avoid using the word "himself".

[Art.] Ego, language, and cognition intersect in the belief that Whiteness is inherently benign and innocent. Chauncey Vega, high tone and all, is a vicious little b*stard, isn't he?

It's hard to resist the logic that he lives and breathes for white "evilness" being innate and racial. Which makes him a bigger racist than any Theo Bilbo. Vega has thought about it and parsed the equities, and come down firmly on the side of inculpating, blaming, and hating whites because they're white and built Florence and London and Rome, not Timbuktu and Jenne-Jenno.

What’s all the fuss about? Urban crime, biker crime? The major problem facing the world today, and what is causing both urban crime and biker crime is climate change!

I’ve been to a couple of those meets. No one was drunk or high, road captains wouldn’t allow it. I’ve also known several who practiced with firearms.
Don’t believe the grade B biker movies.

This is my fear.

There are groups out there that are observing “If I want something to change, I have to get very violent”. Baltimore, Missouri, and many smaller cities have given proof to that.

I fear that there are some groups who will begin to use that lesson. Many of those groups have in the past, and when they let go it wasn’t the nice quiet riots of the recent past, it was “Bring out the Gatling gun to stop the Mob!” type of thing.
