Racism is dying. Sure there is some toothless dipshits in small towns but for the most part it's a thing of the past.

Tbh I'm sick of hearing about it. There are dumb racists just like there are just stupid people period. Its an excuse that just needs to die. Some ignorant red neck living in a trailer park isn't the cause of all of your problems.
62 million people prove otherwise.

Dying? I can't remember the last time we had a President saying overtly racist things. That sounds like progress for racism.

Where oh where have I heard of an employment situation where you can find TWO employees (in teams that are 10+ people) that hate their respective manager and would have no problem lying about their actions?

Oh wait - everywhere... especially in retail, food service or other entry level jobs.

I'm not saying that they are lying, I'm simply stating that you have one side of the argument. You don't even have a statement or response from the person that is actually being accused and we have dipshits here yelling "GUILTY! GUILTY!!" .... "but why is he guilty?" "Because TWOOOOO whole people said he did something".

How fucking dumb can you be?



RMP. One person’s allegations in a lawsuit and two people in a Facebook post that is gone. SAFtK.

I’m sure it did happen but I’ve definitely seen people lie all the time working in restaurants. About all kinds of stuff big and small. Restaurants get in your blood but there’s some shit that goes on in them for sure.

You don't get out much do you? Racism is alive and, unfortunately, well

It is alive and unfortunately doing well as you said. Much of it isn’t going recognized though and it’s become socially acceptable to judge people based on the color of their skin so long as it’s against the right people. We’ve made a helluva lot of progress as a society but the last ten years or so has really been heading in the wrong direction. You don’t get rid of racism by propping up and becoming racist.

I LOOOOOOOOOVE reading articles of one-sided points of views. There is absolutely no possible way that there may be different points of views of the events that occurred. Nope... Slam dunk.

I mean, I'm sure they just handed the employees racial skin color guides to tell them which ones to dismiss based on skin color.... And when they dismissed them the employee said "Sorry we don't serve darkies her---- I mean, sorry, our kitchen is closed and can't make anymore food at the moment"

the assumption that every issue must have multiple points of a view is a fallacy.

I'm racist against white people (ignore the fact that I'm a pasty white Irish guy that Hitler and Goebbels would have salivated over) according to the Reichwing all because I want everyone to be treated as equals. I have been told by people that I know that I am a traitor to my race (which I find funny since we are all homo sapien sapiens and the only difference between us all are superficial appearance based aspects). Hell, I even have no problem with treating people with turnip IQ's as equals as long as they don't speak to me.
To quote from Frank Zappa's Trouble Coming Everday song...
Hey, you know something people?
I'm not black but there's a whole lots a times I wish I could say I'm not white

"I'm pasty-white and I'm not racist, and I don't notice any racism. Ergo racism is done! We did it! Good job us white people! From now on any problems black people have are totally their own fault"

So I take it you're one of the "smart racists" from the oilfields? I guess at least the oilfield guys feel so strongly about blackface they decided to do it professionally. And look at you, you have teeth! I can see why you feel superior to your toothless brethren (not too surprising you look down on them, they don't seem to be white enough for ya, what with their red necks and all).
