Did you mix blue powerade and tequila? You're a sick man.

[–]Sedarious 6ポイント7ポイント  (5子コメント)

Not tequila.. It was some cheap ass bottle of only god knows what. I basically drank it with blue powerade on a 50/50 mix.

I remember drinking a huge cup of it, then pouring another, and after 1-2 more small events, I was gone. I woke up the next morning feeling like a champ, because I was tucked into a blanket and resting my head on a pillow. The problem was that I was in my friend's car, and he was sitting next to me waiting to see if I was even going to wake up. It turns out that I threw up a lot the night before, couldn't talk, and I was taken care of by 2 other friends to get me where I was in the morning(very close to my house). They considered taking me to the hospital, but I guess as long as I was breathing they thought I was ok(they could have done a lot worse, like left me at the bonfire where we started the night).

My friend thought it would be a good idea to go to McDonalds to get some food in me so I could hopefully sober up(yeah I was still wasted until later that night). As soon as the car started, I felt my stomach start the spin cycle. I didn't move until we got to McDonalds, and when we got there I went straight to the bathroom to puke.

Let's just say that I have a few drinks I have grown to really like, and I know my limit now... but I just won't ever drink blue powerade ever again.

      I enjoy a full bodied African arabica-bean coffee black. I sip it while it's hot and enjoy the broad flavor across my pallet. I like to pair it with dark chocolate to neutralize the acidity. I'll kill you in your sleep. I sometimes enjoy a robusta-bean coffee with cream as a treat. But I'm fairly picky about where I get it from. Timmies is my favorite robusta bean coffee, but I generally grind my arabica beans and then use a press.

              And if somebody tells you they're black, it's not like you're likely to say "Bullshit!"

                At that moment, it was monetarily advantageous to identify as white. But now, it's monetarily advantageous to identify as black. Once Hillary's in, white will be the new black.

                See how this works folks. Race is just a construct. A way to scam the system.

                      If she were denied a scholarship because she was black we would consider this to be racism. I'm failing to see the difference here. Not that you are arguing against me or anything but people in general seem to think that you can't be racist against white people. I think the nightly shows does a good job of being racist against white people. End of rant.

                      No it doesn't.

                      "You're only doing this because I'm white" contains an inherent admission that one is white.

                          It's the hypocrisy of being whatever colour she wants as it suits her that's being pointed out, not the ins and outs of discrimination.

                          It really depends on how someone defines racism. There are two different ideas of racism that permates these sorts of discussions.

                          There is the idea that it is simply discrimination based on race. In that definition you can be racist against any race.

                          There is another idea of racism that it's race based discrimination but from the powerful towards the powerless (or the less powerful). This means a black person can be prejudiced against a white person, but they can't be racist since the power dynamic in America (and I'm really only talking about America here, and I guess Europe as well, basically any European country or former colony) favors white people. This doesn't justify or excuse any prejudice against white people, but it works to keep the idea of race based subjugation or disempowerment different from straight raced based hatred.

                          And I think the fact that these two ideas of racism are never really discussed when the argument comes up leads to more animosity, and misunderstandings.

                          In the case of a white person being denied a scholarship to Howard, by the second definition it wouldn't be racist. The reason being Howard is a historically black college created specifically to help black students get a college education denied to them by established universities. An education that it's still harder for a black student to get than a white student in America (source). She has more opportunity to study anywhere (statistically) since she is white by denying her a scholarship based on her race would not be racism by the second definition. It's still prejudiced, no one would argue that it isn't (or no rational person anyway), just that it isn't racism because of the power dynamic involved.

                          But it would be considered racism by the first definition.

                          So the people who argue that one can't be racist against white people aren't saying that you can't be hateful, spiteful, or prejudiced towards a white person based on the color of their skin. Just that that sort of prejudice isn't called racism because of the power dynamic involved.

                          and I'm really only talking about America here, and I guess Europe as well, basically any European country or former colony

                          As someone who has traveled the world and seen how different ethnic minorities and majorities interact with each other. America and Europe is the only two places that have tried to do something for ethnic minorities. In every other country I have been in particularly Asia. If you are a minority they will not rent you apartments or hire you for a decent job and tell you right to your face ( or in their newspapers) its because your Chinese or Filipino and how your people are scum. Some of those most advanced economies in the world not run by whites have no problem being racist and have governments that pretend its not an issue until riots happen then they tend to blame the ethnic minorities for being "trouble makers".

                          English speakers who do not read other languages have no idea how common discrimination and racism is outside of Europe or America. They read English only papers from other countries and think those papers or websites reflect the view of most of the country. When they only reflect the views of the top 1% who have been educated in foreign universities or come from extremely wealthy well connected families that have nothing to do with ordinary people.

                          But then of course there are employment quotas and affirmative action, which literally does deny you access to education or jobs because you are white.

                          I'm not sure I understand how those practices still don't fall into the "institutional racism" category. It is an institution straight up denying you (or from a different spin, merely accepting someone else) because of your race.

                          Saying "well, the average white person is still better off than the average black person" and then trying to actually apply that to a particular individual is where, imo, a lot of people tend to mix ideas. I've been a poor "white enough" person my whole life. The average wealthy black child had far more opportunity than I did. So now it's okay for me to be racist?

                          I just don't understand the logic that "you can hate those who are in power because they are in the power, or actually because I only see them as the ones in power" really plays out.

                          I understand the concept of "micro-aggresions". I have heard every iteration of institutional racism, and I don't deny it exists. Minorities (along with lots of other demographics) face disadvantages. But everyone has disadvantages. If you go around looking for differences amongst people, it will only help you in alienating them.

                          But institutionalized or socially constructed discrimination can exist to harm every race. And, imo, it most certainly has more to do with wealth than race.

                          And just lumping a term of "people of color" to include all demographics of "not-white" leads to some really wide demographics. If institutional racism is holding back minorities, how are Asians and Indians having such success? So okay, it's not just minorities, it's certain minorities. Could there possibly be a higher correlation with wealth and college acceptance than race?

                          There are so many social constructs that makes up a "person." Race, gender, wealth, power and so many more. I think too often people attribute behavior and/or the actions of others into only one social dynamic.

                          "You only said that because I'm black."

                          "You only think that way because I'm a woman."

                          "You only think that because you are white."

                          I dunno. Racism is weird. [8]

                                            Her parents recently called her out on that bullshit too.

                                            dont you hate it when you're an adult and your parents embarrass you like that?

                                                In the 90's the term would have been "Wigger" - and I'm not trying to be snarky on this. Per Google's definition:

                                                wig·ger
                                                ˈwiɡə/r/
                                                noun US informal
                                                a white person who tries to emulate or acquire cultural behaviour and tastes attributed to African-Americans.

                                                She was head of the NCAAP the Spokane chapter of the NAACP and claimed to be black.

                                                Before that, she sued her college for discrimination because she was white.

                                                In a recent interview, she adamantly claims she is black, and her parents have gone on record as saying "we hope she gets the professional help she needs."

                                                As someone who lives in Spokane, I can say that there aren't very many black people, but they are largely concentrated into specific areas which makes it seem like we either have a 50% black population or 0.

                                                              In that sense, having been brought up with black adopted siblings, she may arguably feel somewhat disconnected with the culture of her forebears. This, however, does not really morally allow her to appropriate culture.

                                                              her siblings were adopted from haiti and her parents were lily white and she grew up in a mayonnaise part of the country. its not like she grew up in the hood and just came out that way. she had to go out of her way to do all of this.

                                                              She grew up with black adopted siblings, she socialised within a black circle of friends, and she married and later divorced a black man. I'm not saying she is a black person, she's not, race isn't something you really get to define for yourself, but she certainly has grounds to identify with black culture at least somewhat.

                                                              Yep. She identifies with black culture. Exactly. But that's the point. Culture and race are two different things.

I'm not saying I'm correct on this, I'm genuinely interested to find out whether there is a difference.

                                                                        See, this always really bugged me. I grew up in what could charitably be described as "the ghetto". I was one of three white kids in the neighborhood.

                                                                        All of my friends, except for one of the other white kids, were black. All of my role models were black. I was in a breakdancing crew in the 80s and we used to make money in the touristy part of town dancing.

                                                                        I wore track suits and I always had the illest fat laces. As the times progressed so did the fashion. Soon I was wearing baggy, sagging pants with oversized tshirts. Overalls with one side of the bin unhooked. Purple cross color pants.

                                                                        People would ask me why I "talked black" and "dressed black". I just dressed like me. I spoke like me.

                                                                        Then the 90s hit and suddenly there were all kinds of white dudes in the neighborhood putting on an act. It was hilarious. We used to get them to buy us 40s and we'd smoke all their weed.

                                                                        Soon there was a name for them. Wigger.

                                                                        Suddenly, I was being identified as a member of this subculture that I didn't actually belong to. Fucking white people. They ruin everything. (Because tone is difficult, I was speaking with my tongue firmly implanted in my cheek for that last one)

                                                                        I never thought I was black. I was never putting on a cultural costume. I was dressing and speaking and acting the way my peers did.

                                                                        [–]AXP878 9ポイント10ポイント  (1子コメント)

                                                                        [–]fappolice 19ポイント20ポイント  (0子コメント)

You shared the exact same upbringing and culture as people in your neighborhood that were black, but you yourself were and are not black. She is claiming to be black, not just a part of black culture.

                                                                        Did you find employment more easily than your black friends?

                                                                        Do you enjoy skiing?

                                                                        [–]Justusbraz 8ポイント9ポイント  (0子コメント)

                                                                        Yes, there was a difference in the way I was treated by cops. Partially it may have been due to my "don't run" policy. At the time and place, we were kids on a corner just hanging out. No one did business on our block. We went away from where our moms lived. I didn't run, so I got a pat down and a "move along". To be fair, so did my friends who were black and also didn't run.

                                                                        Employment as a teenager was difficult. I needed to get a legit job to justify my loot to my mother. Over the phone, I would be told they weren't hiring. Face to face, I fared slightly better. I have to tell you... white privilege is being able to pull your pants up and look like someone who gets hired. Changing my speech patterns and adjusting my vocabulary proved to be one of the greater challenges of my late teens.

                                                                        The only golf course that I knew about was part of a partially defunded military base. We all got onto it just fine. At night. By hopping a fence.

                                                                        I do not enjoy skiing. I've been exactly once in my entire life. I was 15 or so and didn't know enough to ask for wide boots. I had some fun on the slopes for a bit, but my feet were shredded by the end of the day. At this point, I'm a bit too old and out of shape to fuck around with something that requires a level of athleticism above being lazy.

                                                                        [–]RepairmanmanMANNN 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

No, it's nearly impossible to find a job where I come from for "normal" people, let alone people in my upbringing. No probably not unless i dressed & talked out of character. Skiing sounds fun to try.

I think you can identify as whatever you choose, but when it comes down to the meat and potatoes, you're born however you were born, imo. I would expect a black child adopted by white parents and vice versa, to struggle with this concept of self identification.

                                                                                        What I think is really interesting is that her family is being so vocal about it. What do they have to benefit from turning this woman's life upside down? Honestly, if my parents were treating me this way, I'd probably identify as something totally different than them too. They sound like a bunch of assholes. I kind of feel bad for her, even if she made some really stupid decisions.

                                                                                        [–]hazay 14ポイント15ポイント  (2子コメント)

She was involved in a lawsuit and, I believe a reporter, contacted her parents regarding the case to ask some questions. They clearly were like "wat, we aren't black" so it became a more public matter. Especially since she was publicly portraying a black man as her father and her adopted brother as her black son.

                                                                                        I believe this was one of her fake claims of hate crimes against her for being black.

                                                                                        [–]Ashelby 4ポイント5ポイント  (0子コメント)

                                                                                          [–]MeisterStenz 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

As well as lying about being a victim of hate crimes and other things. The issue here is her lies. Not what she self identifies as.
