OPs response when someone said BLM and KKK are no where near the same:
I know what KKK did. BLM is no different. If youd like to whine about how they systematically killed minorities and BLM doesnt, you should also know that looting is the same as social murder by taking away the means a person has to live in the society.
'Social murder', couldn't make this shit up.
Here’s my take at him:
“ You’re comparing systematic terror and lynchings to private property getting stolen or destroyed. Say what you will about looting and burning, you CANNOT compare that to a group kidnapping someone from their home and hanging them from a tree.”
His response:
“ Actually i can. Your braindead eyes apparently dont register the social murder part nor do you seem to be capable of processing it”
They’re not playing with a full deck lol.
I had assumed they were 15 so that makes it worse actually
But seriously I doubt the >
92300 people who upvoted it were also teenagers
again, 90% of the time someone says, "blacks" or "the blacks" like this, especially in this context, you can just stop reading it, whatever comes after that is going to be take so bad it's lower than whale shit in marianas trench
actually, 90% is probably a very generous number
I know it's the weed, but I straight up started giggling like a moron realizing there is an centrist sub and people go there to post all serious about how much they fucking love centrism.
I'm just assuming they all took that dril tweet literal and their sub banner is,
the wise man bowed his head solemnly and spoke: "theres actually zero difference between good & bad things. you imbecile. you fucking moron"
How do people not feel iffy writing 'blacks'? Always telling when a high-minded centrist talks like a racist and doesn't realize it.
eh, depends on context. it does feel really weird to just say "blacks" in a paragraph exclusively about black people. but a good chunk of the time if im talking about multiple races, ill use the words "whites" and "blacks" in different parts of a paragraph or different paragraphs, because they're simple, useful terms. whites, blacks, asians ... i see it as basically the same way as americans, europeans, africans
Either this sub is a joke or these people are completely braindead.

Another magnificent post:
Instead of of focusing on "white privilege" and blaming white people, we should focus on black disprivilege and helping black people.
Congratulations, you discovered what white privilege is.
All of these type of posts essentially boil down to: "Yes i know the world is shit, but we are too lazy to fix anything" Which sums the centrist political project just about right.
As an Asian male
White LARPer alarm activated!
But for real, Asian chuds are the most frustrating because sometimes they're so fucking close to getting it but then they veer off into some racist bullshit.
That whole reddit post is so in line with the centrist mindset, it's like the reverse of that iraqi dinar scam article
What is wrong with these people?
This is pretty hilarious though:
Hold up
Aren't we, as centrists, supposed to be the most tolerant?It's fun to meme on these guys and make fun of them, but I'm not sure how to convince them that they're wrong. Like, this kid is 17 according to his post history. Obviously he's an idiot, but It's not like he's out here wearing white bed sheets. What's the response?
