Good, fuck that racist dick. I had a similar event last year with a lyft driver who also happened to be of middle Eastern descent. I was burning up and wanted to fuck up his car.
I had managed to get a NYC cab to pick me up. I was at Port Authority. Every cab driver in the area has to stop there if they have no passengers. They have to pick up a passenger regardless of whom the passenger is. But this is at Port Authority. Everywhere else, I don't know.
This is no news cabbies have been known not to pick blks especially in NY I could be wrong but Didn't Obama say he was having tough time getting a Cab in NYC before
The bigot cabbie was one of those "persons of color" we are so quick to claim. Time to leave that phrase alone.
Mr. Flame, why is that? Why are blacks so quick to claim others who are people of color as allies when the same people could give a shit about them? The new wave of racism from the "people of color" will make white racism look like a dwarf. When this country becomes the next "Third World hell hole" as described by Ann Coulter, will blacks benefit from those allies or will it be the people of color illegal immigration by not assimilation (who will bring their racism with them and not give a shit about the progress of race relations that blacks have fought for since slavery), but an invasion as Bobby Jindal just recently commented, to be pushed out of the job market from the intense competition coming.
Yeah, because those two have proven themselves to be great allies to black folks and their unique struggles....
Those other groups are Patriarchal. Brotherhoods ain't hearing that love everybody shit. Sisterhoods (like Black folks) love that dumb shit...even if it's not real...they love it just the same. People that put their sons first > People that put their daughters first. Illegals don't ally with Blacks in the Country they come from,hell,they don't even ally with blacks in the Penitentiary :smt042
Jindal has been pretending to be a redneck for so long that he actually thinks that he's white. http://www.dailykos.com/story/2015/02/03/1362092/-Governor-Bobby-Jindal-s-official-portrait-revealed
Fascinating, I guess that explains why so many Asians round out their eyes and spend much to lighten their skin. People who cannot be themselves, or think for themselves do not deserve respect.
Thanks, Ra. The use of the phrase has nothing to do with whether or not every member of every non-white group has personal love or affinity with black people. It has everything to do with the fact that people of color all face racism that is a byproduct of Western European/US racism and capitalism. I don't think noting that fact and that there is a common situation these groups face is being "so quick to claim them"
No need for thanks. I'm right there with you. It just cracks me up how some individuals want to claim to be "free thinking" and "intellectual" all the while promoting the same tired ass All Amerikkkan rhetoric & fuckery that has been used towards black folks for generations as well as the simpletons that employ self same fuckery when possible as some sort of inspiration for black folks to follow. SMH.
Stop making excuses for other people's racism toward Blacks. You're always running interference for them:smt042
That's not at all what he's doing. The point is, whether it's racism or any other kind of unjust mentality/behavior, it's wrong no matter what individual or group it's directed at. You should stop making excuses for your own racism toward other people. No matter how you look at it, your hatred toward others makes your character the same as those who are racist toward black people. Hating those who hate you doesn't improve anything for anyone; it only makes everything worse for everyone, especially for those doing the hating.
In Flame and Black Tiger's defense I only see that biggoted bs flowing in one direction. It may not be all of them but is a significant amount who discriminate towards blacks and even more who stay silent while it happens. We have seen it with every ethnic non wasp group who comes into this country. At first they are treated like shit ie Irish and Italians and then they find their way into whiteness by all out hating black people for absolutely no reason other than we exist. Its genuine concern to have when this incredible influx of people of color are allowed to come in. It creates further competition for dwindling jobs and creates an even bigger social class who already has a colorism issue to come in hate the very skin tone they hated in their country of origin with growing support of the majority of this one. I don't know what the answer is but it doesn't lie in dismissing the truth because you personally don't see it or want to deal with it.
