@ZayLong @heychrisfox @AlaskanMan2 @milkshapes I get what u saying but it's clearly not that simple. As simple as you think littering is how simple they thought black ppl being in servitude was. Trying to keep it surface level is why we have systemic issues in the first place bc simple solutions don't solve complex problems

@Billc1241 But cars werent invented just to kill things...and they're regulated

[Lewis @BIGLewWop]

@ZayLong @heychrisfox @AlaskanMan2 @milkshapes If you don't care why ppl don't "just do it" why even participate in discussion about it? "Ppl should do what I think is right" is totalitarian. The fact we're talking about civil rights is THE example of ppl not agreeing on what "right" is, y'all are just tryna be dense atp

[Lewis @BIGLewWop]

@ZayLong @heychrisfox @AlaskanMan2 @milkshapes He dropped a random statistic to prove he did research but the stats don't mean anything without context. What do highschool dropout rates have to do with equality in education? We're not talking about littering, we're talking about post civil rights legislation, keep up

[Lewis @BIGLewWop]

@heychrisfox @ZayLong @AlaskanMan2 @milkshapes I get it now, you're intellectually lazy. Or just not as smart enough to actually make a valid point

[Lewis @BIGLewWop]

@heychrisfox @ZayLong @AlaskanMan2 @milkshapes I'm not saying the stats aren't real, I'm saying stats require context and relevance. You can't just drop a stat with education in the name and say it proves a point. If you need that explained then it's no wonder ur in the sunken place

[Lewis @BIGLewWop]

@heychrisfox @ZayLong @AlaskanMan2 @milkshapes I guess with all this algorithm based user experience priority there's no telling what comes up if we Google the same thing

[Lewis @BIGLewWop]

@heychrisfox @ZayLong @AlaskanMan2 @milkshapes Wtf does the dropout rate have to do with this?!

[Lewis @BIGLewWop]

@heychrisfox @ZayLong @AlaskanMan2 @milkshapes You saying education is equal is the main thing you said that lets me know your research is limited. You can Google: "how are black schools systemically affected by post civil rights act legislation" for starters.

[Lewis @BIGLewWop]

@heychrisfox @ZayLong @AlaskanMan2 @milkshapes No, it's not true of every race. Everybody has challenges, everybody is not systemically targeted. There's never been a policy that said "do not approve loans to asians," but in the 1930s the FHA underwriting manual literally instructed them to deny black Americans.

[Lewis @BIGLewWop]

@heychrisfox @ZayLong @AlaskanMan2 @milkshapes I asked you what issues were fixed bc you claimed they mostly all were, you named some, I challenged that by implying there are still systemic issues in everything you claimed. If all you care about is legally proximity to white ppl, then of course you don't see any problems

[Lewis @BIGLewWop]

@heychrisfox @ZayLong @AlaskanMan2 @milkshapes To be clear I'm not "anti-desegregation" and I never said anything to suggest that, it was good to delegislate that. I am challenging the notion that ending it was as productive as ppl like you claim. The issue was inequality, that was not "fixed" by ending segregation

[Lewis @BIGLewWop]

@heychrisfox @ZayLong @AlaskanMan2 @milkshapes 1.) what I believe doesn't matter, it didn't balance an already generational gap.
2.) it's still an issue despite your ignorance
3.) more ignorance, do some research

[Lewis @BIGLewWop]

@sovenaslime Bc it's not two ppl getting to know each other on equal ground, one person has the advantage of life experience that the other doesn't have yet. You're basically raising them not dating them and if ur sleeping with them at the same time, that's weird.

[Lewis @BIGLewWop]

@KilladeIphia Does it continue after that?? In a game categorized as a first person "shooter," that's wild they got you hanging ppl as a barrier to playing the rest of the game

[Lewis @BIGLewWop]

@ZayLong @EliotNace @heychrisfox @AlaskanMan2 @milkshapes It's not like someone sits them down to analyze why they opted to brawl instead of another choice after the fact. And you can't really tell ppl that violence isn't a solution to a problem when that's the exact same tool thats used against them and it's glorified in so many ways

[Lewis @BIGLewWop]

@EliotNace @ZayLong @heychrisfox @AlaskanMan2 @milkshapes I mean it's not like the clues aren't there. One bad apple is isolated but when there's multiple batches of bad apples there's clearly a root issue. But like I said when ppl just stop at their own uneducated/uniformed ideas, they become part of the problem

[Lewis @BIGLewWop]

@EliotNace @ZayLong @heychrisfox @AlaskanMan2 @milkshapes All I'm saying is the system shouldn't work against how difficult that is for individuals. Things like free school meals guarantees hunger isn't a barrier for any child but you have ppl actively working against it

[Lewis @BIGLewWop]

@EliotNace @ZayLong @heychrisfox @AlaskanMan2 @milkshapes Yes, you and I can and most people can but "most" people aren't the problem. A lot of ppl like us will say "do better" and don't ask why ppl aren't already. A lot of ppl develop messed up core belief systems centered around survival due to circumstances out of their control

[Lewis @BIGLewWop]

@LuuukeFox @milkshapes That's the whole point is they DONT want it to change for our benefit. That's why sucking up to them is so degrading
