The video, I haven't properly read the thread yet (should I or should i just avoid the discussion?! :toofunny:)

There has been so far one instance of ignorance, but there is bound to be many more if more people respond to the video. I'm perched :reductive:

Im not a republican so yeah good luck to destroying your country and western values by using minorities to get them to vote for what you want. Neither of you care about minorities but atleast republicans dont lie about it and will treat them like everyone else rather than treating them like victims and a hopeless case which will keep them in their place forever.

I am a minority lol.

The way you're expressing yourself makes it sound like you don't acknowledge different communities have different needs. 

Read up on it.

So what if you are a minority? I am a minority too. I dont treat people as communities, I treat people as individuals and individuals but you believe in collectivism and identity politics.

If minorities voted republicans, you guys would treat them horribly.

Bye, just BYE. This is such a huge generalization, I mean it's not like people of other races in America aren't underrepresented in various job sectors and tend to earn less than their white or white passing counterparts... not like there isn't discrimination both visible and invisible... not like there's people who think we just want free stuff when really we are just struggling to live up to societal expectations of what is being asked of us yet it is all futile because at the end of the day a lot of people think that we just want free stuff. Get woke before you're in for a real wake-up call :madge:

If white people were put into welfare, they will be the same.. its not that other races want free stuff just because, they want free stuff because they are put into the welfare system which will ruin everything. I am talking about personal experience too but I dont want to share much.

Doesn't matter anyway The Fine Bros. already made themselves unpopular with this copyright on "React".

That controversy only affected them for a short while, they've gained back pretty much all the subscribers they had lost. 

On topic: This video makes me worried about tomorrow :saladga:

Liberals and democrats

I thought you treated people as individuals? 

Did you just assume my political ideology without knowing much about me? 

Even between Dems and Liberals there are many differences.

Um... I just think you're making huge generalizations. You can't lump up an entire people and say that they are all the same or want the same. That is extremely problematic. Also, the welfare system is not meant to ruin anything; there are people who just can't afford to live a decent standard of living. Sure there are people who abuse the system, but I would go so far as to say that is a fraction of those on welfare

Also, you can't be put into welfare, it's not a sentence. People receive welfare benefits because of their lack of privileged income. And why are you assuming there isn't a sizable amount of people who think they are white—to quote an expression by Ta-Nehisi Coates—on welfare, because there is. In fact, there were more "white" people on welfare than there were minorities on welfare in my home region of the United States. This is another example of a huge and problematic generalization of people. This is what the US needs to get away from, to stop thinking in definites and black and white.

Her deleted emails? "Corruption".
His illegal actions? "Being smart".

He's done disgusting things, bullied people, sexually assaulted women. "Don't be butt-hurt, you can't hold his past mistakes against him forever".
She's simply stood beside her husband when he did shitty stuff (also the past). "That says a lot about her person, she clearly wanted to further her career. What a terrible/wicked person."

Apparently equality has a very long way to go, at least in the US. With people like that I honestly feel bad for the intelligent lot of you.

it wasn't laaaahv

Yes I do treat people as individuals but I can criticize a political movement and ideology even though I know not every individual in it believes the same thing but generally they all do.

I did not assume your political ideology, I commented based on what you have shared and commented. When I said you guys, I meant your political movement and not you as a person so im saying if minorities voted republican, they wouldnt love minorities that much.

I did not lump an entire race and say they are the same but when a government system is targeted towards a certain race, there will be similarities and problems that other people dont have. Yes white people are on welfare but the majority of white people do not live on welfare unlike other races.

I know people dont abuse the welfare system.. what im saying is people who live on welfare will forever live on welfare and wont make progress meaning it is not helping them. It makes children born into a family that never worked and it will ruin his future and it also ruin marriages as women dont need men or care to find a good man to be the father of her child and thats why the black community has 70% of their children raised in a home without a father. Before the welfare system, black people lives was much better and was progressing until the welfare system was introduced.

I dont believe that the reason many races and minorities have problem is the cause of whte privilege, discrimination and racism.
