Eric,
Your heart is ultimately in the right place. However, you are framing this as what I could term, and I apologise for having to borrow an alt right term for this, an anti-white narrative without realising that America has done more to help black people then any country on the Earth.
For starters, let's look at the civil war itself. Hundreds of thousands of men shed their blood to end the practice of slavery. Many were permanently maimed as a result of the conflict. Tell me, how many countries actually fought a large scale civil war to end slavery? In other words, white people gave their lives to end it.
During the segregation era, hundreds of thousands of white people marched for black people to be free. Many more of those people got involved with aid to Africa programmes. They got behind political correctness and honestly have been trying to improve the situation for black people for over five decades now.
The amount of time and resources that have been pumped into helping black people get an education, get access to good quality healthcare, to help them in general has been a lot.
In other words, I cannot think of another group of people who have tried to do so much for another. Just how much more can white people give?
You know, the other day, I saw shocking videos of BLM activists, black people, actually violently hurting white people "because they deserve it." In England, a black woman pushed an 80 something year old man off the bus. He later died from his injuries. Another black young man attacked a 60 something year old man who has diabetes and just had surgery. In America, a black man deliberately and violently attacked a white salesman. Had the man begging for his life. Another white old lady got pushed out of a bus by a black person.
I could go on. But where are these people's marches? This is now racism, pure and simple and the BLM movement is ignoring these people, focusing on one man who died at the hands of the police.
When the day comes and I see black people marching in their thousands to end black racism on white people, that will be the day. You are right, it is time to end racism but it's also time for the other side to contribute to it. It can't just be white people all the time. They've done more than enough.
As for my statement I made a while back, I am a strong critic of mass immigration because it ultimately leads to merely bringing the old country people left into the new country, creating the same conditions that originally was left behind.
If immigration was strongly regulated, only the best were getting in, then the new arrivals would adapt, assimilate into the mainstream community and become fully settled.
You know, there is a Russian view point when it comes to immigration. It is as follows. "Why should we accept large amounts of people into our country when they should be building up their own land? We had to build ours up, they should do the same."
I agree fundamentally with this statement. Rather then mass migrating elsewhere and creating the same conditions, build up your own countries. I think it is only fair. Hey, you want some aid, we can help but don't bring your problems to our door.
I don't see anything racist in what I am saying. Just basic common sense.
