White people get tons of love. A bit of criticism doesn't mean hate.

White people are the dominant culture. Swish does empathize with any less fortunate, too. I've read it before.

It should be the responsibilities of those in power to try and right the current and past wrongs. Those in power in this country just happen to be white.

I've felt no love from other races. And I've felt a sea of constant criticism. Our perceived ratios of this are basically completely opposed right now.

Whether that is accurate or not. Can you take two seconds to consider the possibility that a lot of white people feel this way? That even if they are totally wrong, they feel that way. And that feeling blamed for every single thing in the world isn't a good way to feel. To feel blamed for every bad thing on earth. To feel that every good thing you have ever done doesn't count. To have a constant expectation to care deeply for others who hate you.

Take two seconds rather than contradicting my experience and try it on for size. Rather than suggesting I'm basically wrong. Consider what it is like to have this experience. This is basically how you empathize.

Empathy is my singular request.

I kinda understand what Kingcob is saying. If you're constantly told you're an asshole by somebody, odds are that you're just going to stop listening to them.

Yeah, it's how I was raised. Church taught me that not everyone may like me, actually even hate me, but to be great is to be humble. Turning the other cheek goes a long way, and just maybe people will change themselves.

Book of Rocket

1 I tell you, respect shall be granted to all souls on your path. 2 Your path will take you many places and you will find people who do not look or talk like you do. 3 Respect is still warranted. 4 Some people will challenge you, these are the mofo people. 5 Mofo people are chameleons and can look and sound like anyone. 6 Ignore the mofo for they parasites to your soul and not worth your time. 7 Continue on your own path as salvation awaits.

As a white person myself I disavow all remarks made by cob, this is a new low IMO. I feel sorry for anyone that believes this absolute crap.

Like 40 I will just laugh at this non sense you can NOT fix this level of ignorance, so why try?

you can't be serious.

i just did that, and you're still complaining that i somehow didn't?

you know what?

since you just ignored everything i said, i'm going to tell you what people on this board tell me all the time.

get over it. grow a pair.

you said i need to understand and have empathy for what you're going through, i show empathy and understanding, but then you turn around and say i'm not?

see this is the exact BS i was talking about in the video.

Swish has to understand everybody. swish has to be like "yea man, you're right".

but the moment i do that, and then make a counter point, everything i said prior to making the counter point gets blown off like i never said anything in the first place.

i'm so sorry you was born white bro. equal pay, no discrimination, can literally date whatever outside races they want because being seen with a white person is considered higher class in other countries, especially Asian. being able to blend in any country in europe.

like sucks, i guess. i, swish, speaking for the entire minority community, am sorry that you was born into the perceived master race on this planet.


i was gonna break down your post again...but then the light bulb came on.

i don't think your intention is for any empathy or understanding. i think your intention was that i end up going down a check list of all the great things white people do, because that will somehow validate your off-hand comments about how bad relations with blacks are in past threads.

i don't think you're interested at all with coming to an understand.

but whatever. good morning.
