Yeah it seems incredible looking at it from over here. Black people are responsible for over 50% of violent crime in America - and there’s people who want less policing in these areas? I bet nobody asks the people who are worst affected by crime..
are they really responsible for over 50% of violent crime? I had never heard that. I've seen studies which seem to indicate that it's more of an economic class issue than racial one? Which again takes me back to the so called progressives who have decimated the black family with their nonsense policies. If you want to solve the problem that's where one needs to start. Review policies that encourage the fragmentation of the black family.

Unfortunately feminists will fight this to the bitter end. Even though the research is becoming clearer and clearer... children have a better life outcome with a traditional family unit or single father. The outcomes are overwhelmingly worse when it's a single mother. I hear a lot of Southern States are starting to work on this. Things like joint custody as the default option, and I hear Florida has just brought in legislation that puts a limit on how long alimony needs to be paid? That might lose them women in the short term, but these are good policies.

Sadly it's becoming clear that when you design things that give women unearned benefits they'll just exploit the system. This is human, men would abuse the system too. Women are not fundamentally better people than men. They're just as bad (or good) as men. It's time that's recognised. You would think the feminists pushing for equality would be the first to acknowledge this, but it seems feminism is not really striving for equality these days, just benefits over men...

The statistics vary from year to year, but they’re responsible for 50% of murders for every year I’ve looked at, and a disproportionate amount of other violent crime, though they make up only 14% of the population. The causes for this as you say, are still being argued. Fragmentation of the family has to be a huge factor. Denzil Washington is one of the wise holistic voices asking, where’s the fathers?

I’m sure the causes are many, and will never be agreed upon…

yes I've heard Denzel talk about this. His heart is in the right place but the diagnosis is based upon a very traditional conception that men should be held accountable. This only goes so far if real thought is put into it. At some point we have to assign responsibility and accountability to those who make the choices. If someone picks a drug dealer as a mate, don't blame the drug dealer for being... a drug dealer. Why are these people being chosen as mates. Clearly the Walmart worker who doesn't break the law, and would be a good father isn't being picked as a mate. It's all very well to ask where is the father, but it totally misses the point

I think he’s referring to the familial role of the father, and how youngsters make surrogate families with hierarchies in gangs.

I grew up in a tough working class area on the north side of Dublin and the scariest words you'd hear were, “You wait until your father gets home.” There’s a lot to be said for it…

On George Floyd, I was shocked to find out that exactly the same thing happened to a white man in the US in about 2016. I think that these race activists keep missing a trick.

I start to wonder is this really more about grift for the organisers rather than to make changes to benefit society?
Race theory in America is definitely a grift. They’ve racialised everything under the pretence of justice and equality and other fad words. And typically, the Patron Saint of Nonsense, Ibram X Kendi, refuses to debate his anti-race inflammatories with serious heterodox black voices. It’s lucrative for him, why place that in jeopardy?

Seriously… :facepalm:


That cop is no kid. I wonder if she ever had a moment of enlightenment where she asked herself, “why is all this so important now? Wasn’t a thing at all when I was a rookie..”

I also wonder if it’s a fake. The AI technology out there now is getting more powerful by the day, and easier to use. It’s unfortunate, but I’m at the point where I have to question the authenticity of pretty much everything.

It’s official. There is no safe place for women to excel. Men rule the world, get over it, bigots!

have you seen what the woman who came 2nd looks like. This whole thing is just a fucking joke!
I know the comical reaction to this and the man whose job offer was rescinded because he called two ladies ‘ladies’ is to wail that the world is gone mad - but it has.

Why is it that women who have heard the word ladies forever, have suddenly in the last 5 minutes discovered that it’s actually a microaggression? And if they felt that, why weren’t they asked, ‘so what? You’re not a child, you have no right to be upset by this now.’

Really, it’s the people pandering to this are the real trouble. They’re the ones doing the damage. It’s like changing the whole known world around because children in their prams are chucking their toys out in a fit..

There are bigger subversive groups behind this that have embedded themselves into all institutions over several decades. One of the biggest in the UK is "Common Purpose".

Even in the US, there were whistleblowers in the Reagan administration calling this infiltration out back in the 80s - particularly with Education. If we hark back to the KGB Defector video - it's apparent that what he said was totally correct... but the Soviet Union collapsed right? It makes no difference - one of the aims is to collapse the nation state... the borderless ideology still remains.

One of the videos Federberg shared a while ago relating to Marxism switching horses once the working class ended as a vehicle is also worth a re-watch.

A cohesive unit of people with shared values and culture is the enemy of this ideology - that's why we see massive inorganic immigration and demographic shifts, divide and conquer among the peoples (even without the immigration factor). You can see the West has been taken with barely a shot being fired. Straight out of the Sun Tzu "Art of War" manual.

Yeah there’s certainly a purpose behind ask this. Why else are middle aged ladies talking about microaggressions and other empty modish terms? The far left are ruining everything.

And yet people will still vote for left wing parties in elections. Funny, innit?
