"...what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul."

that seems to be your canned response to all of my posts which you don't like and the topic is out of your league.  maybe you should stick to some of the easier stuff like your favorite ice cream or cloth diapers vs depends.

     i stated a fact.  if you don't like it, tell me otherwise or just stfu

Unfortunately for you, most every topic is out of your league.  And the sad part is that you don't realize it.

  you realize where most of "big money's" money goes to right?  the virtue signalers are the ones who are perpetuating this so called "institutional racism" you are up in arms about.  they're holding all these woke seminars, paying big dollars to "woke" ya'll up, then go back to doing what they want to do anyway, make money... but no way they can be racists cuz some of their best friends are...never mind.

I can't be the only person somewhat interested in him peeling one or two more layers off of this. For starters:
- why does he think a post with 0 specifics is considered "facts" that someone else needs to refute?
- who, by name, is "big money"?
- what is a "woke seminar", how am I only finding out about them now, and how do I get an invite?
- tell me more about this business model where people (entities?) pay big dollars to "woke" folks up in order to go back to what they would have done anyway.....make money. Is it the ultimate 'you've got to spend money to make money' scenario, is this a version of offering seed faith offerings to televangelists for liberals?

We need to create a "rocket meter" to quantify how stupid and incomprehensible a post is on Scoop.

For example, "4nevers post was a 9.5 on the rocket meter".

my employer dropped $20K on Henry Rogers, I mean Dr. Ibrham Kendi to do a Zoom talk and bought 500 of his books for distribution to hear him say everyone is racist and everything we do is motivated by racism in some way, and we can only remedy that through "present and future discrimination to remedy past discrimination." Oh, and he can't even define racism when he talks about racism.

Not knowing any more context (industry, corporate culture/history, public/private, actual content covered etc.) that seems like a colossal waste of $'s for a speaking engagement.

did you consider this a "woke seminar" vs. speaking engagement and do you think your employer did it for the nefarious purpose "to "woke" ya'll up, then go back to doing what they want to do anyway, make money"?

Having read Dr. Kendi's book, you're misrepresenting his message. However, I also don't like Dr. Kendi's work though for different reasons.

This judge disagrees, scores it a mere 3. Failed at typical rambling, lacked the expected incoherence, and excluded any conspiracy theories. Altogether an atypical effort.

Not rambling enough.   Not filled with alternative facts with no basis in reality with cryptic asides.   1 star

Hate crimes against Asian and Black people rise sharply in the U.S., FBI says

https://www.cnbc.com/2021/08/30/fbi-says-hate-crimes-against-asian-and-black-people-rise-in-the-us.html?utm_term=OZY&utm_campaign=pdb&utm_content=Tuesday_08.31.21&utm_source=Campaigner&utm_medium=email

++ Hate crimes targeting people of Asian descent in the U.S. rose by 70% last year compared with the number of such incidents in 2019, the FBI said.

++ That increase coincided with the outbreak in the U.S. of the Covid pandemic, which some racists have unjustly blamed on Asian Americans because the coronavirus originated in China.

++ The number of hate crimes targeting Black people jumped nearly 40% last year compared with 2019 levels.

Economic anxiety
If we are conducting increased hate crimes against minorities because of 'economic anxiety' it only means that racism and bigotry is always lying under the surface and we just need an excuse to act on it. Economic anxiety may very well be a trigger but the issue is that we are a society steeped in racism and bigotry - let's not make any excuses for the actions.

It's an excuse used by many to dismiss racism in our country, it's not something I believe in on any level.  The Tea Party ran on the idea of economic anxiety.  It was a lie
