Hollywood is built on the exploitation of labor. Ppl like Harvey Weinstein wouldn't exist if Hollywood didn't exploit those who wanted immediate fame and fortune

America has constantly let its veterans down. They just call them heros and then casually toss them aside to die. Whether it's the black veterans after ww1 and 2, Vietnam vets, Iraq war vets,, gay veterans dishonorably discharged, immigrant veterans being deported, and now Trans veterans

76% of millionaires in the U.S. are white, and white people account for 60% of the total U.S. population.

Globally 90 percent of billionaires are male; 65 percent are white; 60 percent are 60 years old or older.

The Super Bowl just finished. Did you see any of the two teams of mostly black men protest Donald Trump?

If they did their white billionaire bosses would fire them. See Kapernick

I don't know about that. I'm a 1990 millennial and the vast majority of ppl my age collectively said fuck giving the extra effort for no return. I remember reading in my 20s that millennials pretty much gave up on retirement and started traveling.

It's not defending conservatives. It's pointing out that European exceptionally comes at the detriment of others which creates many negative opinions of the continent as a whole.

You don't get to claim Europe is already great when their entire way of life is propped on colonization and exploitation on the global south. Whether or not it's only conservatives that don't see them as ppl is debatable considering liberal and conservative alike have exploited African for centuries and actually never stopped.

Was thinking more about the African countries that are still the victims of Eurpean economic colonialism

Pump the breaks there buddy. Canada has done plenty of fucked up shit that mirrors America and in some cases were actualy worse. They've just got better PR.

Trump is clearly a fucking asshole facist but ask the First Nations how much better and kinder Canadians are.

So slow genocide with open air prison vs quicker genocide?

To be fair blackppltwitter was getting flooded by white kids giving white friendly opinions and answers that got overwhelmingly upvoted and became the unofficial black concensus.

"I think white ppl using the n-word is completely fine" type of shit. Not the best way to solve the problem but how exactly do you stop a subreddit based on black culture become overrun by white kids
