    The fact that you need evidence to see systemic racism shows how little you know about it, or the system, and is why we continue to go in circles.

    There’s no rule against comparing things that are not the same.

    No, but read it back to yourself and realize how stupid a discussion tactic that is.

      No evidence to back your claim… I wonder why.

      No, but read it back to yourself and realize how stupid a discussion tactic that is.

      Are you starting to abandon your argument and are moving to “using white supremists was not the best example” to illustrate your point?

            No, you deflected away from backing up the very first comment in this thread with an example of a white supremacist who is not a racist. Still waiting.

            A more apt comparison would be you’re refusing to swing the hammer until I tell you where the nail you put down is because you refuse to open your eyes and look for yourself.

              I’ve said multiple times and provided evidence that that there does not need to be a good white supremists. You’re pretty slow so I’ll try a different route.

              We are going to try a thought experiment (that may be asking a lot from you). If there is one good white supremists does that make them somehow less of a threat to society?

                There does not need to be a good white supremacists

                I mean…. If you’re trying to make a point about them not being violent, or oppressive, or in some way like the “radical” Muslims you’ve been trying to compare them to it would only help your argument. Otherwise you’re comparing apples and oranges.

                Here we go back into this circle because you can’t just admit it was a bad comparison to make. God forbid anyone on the internet makes a mistake and owns up to it.

                  You’re still stuck on you’re misrepresentation of my original comment. I was not making a point about white supremists being good in any way. I was making a point about the threat white supremacy pose to society, it is minimal just like the threat of radical Muslims to society. Both threats are amplified by the media to keep people emotional, dumb, and angry. From your responses it appears effective.

                    Nah dawg go re-read your own comment. You tried to make the point that there can be “good” white supremacists (like how most Muslims are not violent in the name of their faith) but have yet to follow up on that. Until you do you’re trying to compare one group that is largely peaceful with another group that inherently believes the world would be better with only them in it, which makes no sense.

                    Again, the problem isn’t that your original comment is misrepresented. You’ve had ample opportunity to correct the representation. The problem is it’s a shitty comparison to make at all.
