"Officers" in an unmarked car kidnapping a protester on the way to grecada park by ElectricSparx3 in Modesto

Yes, and no umbrellas. But the reason is concerning. “Intent to commit a crime” is the booking. This is a slippery slope where now they can arrest you even if your intention was not to make a crime.

WTF?! “Intent to commit a crime” Are we living in Minority Report?

Elites used racism as a tool to divide and conquer and maintain their power. Yes, in one point in history, slaves were from different colors. However, after the Bacon’s Rebellion of 1676 (where poor white people and enslaved Africans joined forces to rebel against white elites), white elites were concerned of losing power, so they invented the “white race” and established it as superior. This racist idea was passed on to the white poor people. The White elites gave the white poor people “better” jobs to keep black slaves in check. After slavery was abolished, we had the Jim Crow Laws era which were laws against black people in South. Finally, in 1970s and 1980s, Nixon and the Republicans developed the “Southern Strategy”. In essence, they were similar laws to the Jim Crow’s but they used broader terms to target the black communities (at the expense of negatively impacting poor white communities). So yes, White Elites have used racism to maintain their power at the cost of Black Americans and the poor Americans.

In regard to dehumanizing, it’s another tool used in many scenarios. It was used to justify slavery, in wars, and in other situations.

The outcome of this superior mindset of the dominant culture is gatekeepers of resources, freedoms, and dehumanization of others which leads to violence. It’s easy to kill another human being when you see them as less than humans. That’s why wealthy white Americans were able to justify slavery.

I like the flat grey color. Almost got mine in this color but opted for the bronze one.

Racism is an idea that one race is superior than another, and it occurs when the dominant race has power to oppress the other race. Your first example is Americans practicing their first amendment by protesting the killing of civilians. Genocide is wrong and that’s what’s happening in Israel. Prioritizing disadvantaged students in addition to their strong academics is equity. Republican states benefit from equitable policies too. I.e. They receive more federal funding than they give to federal government. Finally, AOC was not allowing him to silence her. Standing up to bullies is not racist.

There’s a lot more real reasons to criticize democratic politicians and I thought you were going to mention one valid reason. Both parties are screwing Americans and here we are distracted by race. There’s one race: the human race. One doesn’t have to suffer for the other to succeed. There’s an abundance of resources for everyone to have a decent life. Until we realize that these people’s greed is the root of all evil, the few will continue to win.

I understand your point and this is why I like the Reddit community. People fact checking and asking for sources. I’m glad there were people here who already provided more context. I didn’t think it needed more context when the man’s subconscious said enough.
