Where has anybody claimed one race is inferior or superior?
The issue is people in positions of power abusing that power and failing to do the most basic tenets of their job; to protect and serve.
The officer that shot Daniel Shaver should be in jail too.
Frequently, sadly. Anyone who believes in race and biological group identity believes in a hierarchy of races. A hierarchy of group identities is the point of belief in biological group identity.
There's an entire powerful ideology explicitly named for the belief that a person's life only matters if they are the "right race" and which acts entirely in accordance with that belief. That's a pretty extreme example of a belief in a hierarchy of races - the belief that one race is so superior to all others that the death of anyone of any of the inferior races doesn't matter.
In world war 2 whose side would you of been on i wonder.
Most likely whatever country they were born into, like most people.
You'd have fit right in with any of the authoritarian regimes. Especially the violent ones.
********. Quite frankly.
People tend to stay around their own races or creeds because of shared experiences and commonalities.
Why do you think Chinatowns exist the world over? It's not racism, it's a people trying to retain their heritage and often, to protect themselves. This doesn't necessitate any kind of hierarchical structure.
It just seems like you're applying your own biases to other people.
Or, alternatively a particular group is over twice as likely to die due to the circumstances being discussed so they were the first to rebel against it.
The whole BLM movement was in part, a reaction to the treatment of a minority group but it also addressed police brutality as a whole. That includes mistreatment of other races.
What's that got to do with anything? The issues is that the contemporary left tend to label pretty much everything and every one they dislike as 'fascist'.
Some do this to try and excuse their violent impulses ?
But to answer your question...The side of Stalin or Hitler? Not really much between then when it came to the horrors they inflicted on humanity.
But as I'm British I would have been on the side of the Allies on the western front in the European part of the war
The pictures showing government officials going 'missing' and declining in number in the USSR as well as the amount of people in the Gulags under Stalin would tend to confirm this.

What do the top 100m sprinters all time have in common?
They're faster than the not top 100m sprinters?

Yes thats true. What else?
They're all men.
Edit: Honestly I really don't get what your point is, I know what you're suggesting but it's just... irrelevant.
Seems some level of due process was followed? Only difference was the relative lack of public disorder in this case vs what could be expected in the Chauvin and others case
They are all faster them me.
That's a point. There might be some cases in which some individuals genuinely believe in the idea of "seperate but equal". Maybe.
But they'll still be choosing who to do business with, who to employ, etc, etc, solely on the basis of what they believe to be race. Are you equally OK with a "white" enclave doing the same thing?
Only to people who don't understand the concept of equality. If you believe that the only choices are racism or racism, you'll assume that everyone is racist.
Which isn't true. Correlation is not causation. Also, "race" is very far from being the strongest correlation so why focus on that?
That's untrue. Simple as that. It's deliberately, purely and completely racist.

Well it just seems like a fact that afro carribean men hold the top 10 100m sprint times of all time.
That can't be a coincidence can it?
Look at the top 10 fastest women from 2019
Seems strange doesn't it?
No Chinese in there or indians despite them making up a huge % of the global population.
No, it doesn't seem strange at all.

Wait a second are you implying that genetics and biology make a difference. That sounds like witch craft.
On the subject matter previously mentioned, I think George Orwell's 1984 should be a cumpulsory read for everyone. It's shocking how many similarities there are with todays world and that was written 70 years ago.

Yeah, crazy right?
Like the top ten 10 swimmers of all time are all white. It's almost like there are some minor physical differences that benefit specific events, that when taken to an extreme (like the top 10 ever) can provide skewed data sets.
It's a great book, I suggest you actually read it.

I intend too, only glanced over the first few pages so far, finishing off the Expeditionary Force by Craig Alanson first (book 9 of 11)

So some races are simply better at certain things due to minor biological differences?
So you cited a book that you haven't read and called the similarities "shocking" from just the first few pages lmao
