🌎 Discussion: Civil Rights, Affirmative Action, Critical Race Theory, Systemic Inequality, and Racism - Part 4

[RockSP]

He has some perverse craving for attention and gets off on trolling Martin’s family. Like when he wanted to auction off the gun to someone who “wants to own a piece of American history”.

He keeps reaffirming he’s a creep.

Wanted to..and did.

 

[Holiday]

Can he just get hit by a bus or something?

George Zimmerman suing Trayvon Martin’s family and others for $100 million

I wouldn't be shocked to find out that disaster of a witness Rachel Jeantel was a stand in for someone else who wanted no part of the trial.

He and Laura Ingraham are the most unsubtle white supremacists on Fox.

So these guys have watched the movie (intro-ed here^) Zimmerman seems to basing his lawsuit on?
And seem to speculate on why she would have been switched, and other things the "film" brings up.
(it's fair to ask why the filmmaker chose them to "review "the film) Edit: Have to add while the potential fraud in the witness switch is interesting, it doesn't change much, and his whole -" I got to know Trayvon" approach to his narrative is pure exploitative, and beyond creepy.
Fascinating.

FYI Ben Crump, the lawyer also being sewed by Zimmerman also just happens to have recently put his book out.
No surprise like everyone wants to exploit this , for profit.

Thought he'd reached bottom auctioning (and somebody actually buying) the gun.
Guess he's trawling for a cut of ^ this too .

I ended up watching the film based off their discussion and their praise of Gilbert's detective work in particular and had to agree with them that he does lay out a strong case that Rachel Jeantel is in no way "Diamond Eugene". After watching the film the idea is comical actually.

100 million is an absurd number and I don't expect it to amount to anything other than publicity for the documentary though I wouldn't shed a tear if that leech Benjamin Crump has to pay up.

Jersey City Kosher Market Attack: Shooter Identified - Linked to Black Hebrew Israelites

WTF?

That awkward moment when black supremacists start shooting places up too. I never knew this was a thing, one of the people that posts here frequently said something along the lines of “I sometimes think black people are the real Jews” and I had no idea his post was based on actual groups that espouse this nonsense.

 

[Donner]

I think white supremacy is the bigger issue. This seems like a one off. But maybe there have been more, but not on the scale like white guys shooting up every damn place they find.

Or sitting pretty in the White House.

 

[Sithborg]

I mean, antisemitism is a decent part of white supremacy, sure. But, it isn't isolated to white supremacy, either.

White supremacists are not "shooting up every damn place they find", they're specifically targeting places of worship. African American churches, Jewish Synagogues, a Sikh Temple. One exception is the El Paso shooting that happened at a Walmart but because the shooter saw a large number of Hispanics there he said.

I don't know if anyone watches hockey here, but the NHL is seeing a bit of a reckoning when it comes to the abuse that hockey coaches throw at young players.

Luckily the girl wasn't seriously injured and lived. This woman should have been in jail already for her previous racist attack on a convenience store clerk a few days prior.

I know medical staff that work in that hospital. They say the scene was ugly and heartbreaking.

I find the most interesting thing about this is how I get using certain language in a way as a teen, that is not appropriate, but does not come off as malicious. It's all the racist retweets that you would think would be kind of hard to get around.

Except it just happened again:

Monsey stabbing: Suspect in Hanukkah celebration stabbings arrested with 'blood all over him,' source says - CNN

And for some reason race is left out of all the major outlets. At least Cuomo defined it as terrorism. I’ll agree with him there.

 

[Sithborg]

I mean, antisemitism is that rare form of racism that transcends race and the political spectrum. Antisemitism is a popular feature of white supremacy, but it isn't owned by white supremacy.

Its been a banner few weeks for antisemitism, though. The NYT had an antisemitic opinion piece.

The President just signed an executive order, that was straight up antisemitic.
