Race report: 'UK not deliberately rigged against ethnic minorities'

[The Running Man]

It's incomprehensible, to me, how sad your life must be that you feel victimised as a white male in the UK.

Given that, i'm leaving this little cesspool inhabited by 'i'm not racist but....' cowards.

Well I have just proven to you that young white males already actively descriminated against financially and through job application assessment.

No wonder you are choosing to leave the thread if you cannot find evidence to the contrary. Your position has become untenable.

You've come into this thread, thrown around the 'you must be a racist' line a few times, then thrown your toys out of your pram. You won't be missed.

I'm waiting for him to claim that women's toilets discriminate against men too, it would share the same logic...

Didn't you say that the system wasn't rigged against young white males, but I provided evidence that it was?

No, you provided a few sporadic examples and claimed it was evidence of Systemic discrimination or disadvantage. Pretty much the equivalent of claiming that women's toilets are evidence of systemic discrimination against men.

I shouldn't be able to find any should I?

The BBC is a govt/tax payer funded organisation if they are pushing this policy it would be indicative of systematic.

It's 2021. Expecting equality makes you a "racist coward", and the only way to be a "good guy" is to support racial discrimination.

It would be funny if it wasn't so tragic and ironic.

I never used to notice stuff like this, but I do now. Since the wokies insisted on racializing everything I can’t help but pay attention to demographics.

It must be a nightmare for advertising agencies these days. The client wants an advert based around a family having dinner. Ok we need black dad, white mum, one disabled child, and one sexually ambiguous child with a rainbow Mohawk. Oh, the dad is meant to be an object of ridicule? White dad and black mum it is then!

I don't watch TV but was visiting a friend the other night who had his TV on and I couldn't help noticing the demographics in adverts now. I don't know whether it's the "woke" agenda that's made me notice it but it looks like a lot of box-ticking is going on to me and it felt jarring.

It's annoying because I look back at older music videos, my favourite films and so on which had a wide range of people in them and I never batted an eyelid.

I expect its just marketing teams not wanting to be on the end of a witch hunt these days rather than a specific agenda, though I'm sure those people/teams exist too.

You acknowledge that the content hasn't changed over that space of time, just your opinion of it.

And you express that using terminology ("woke agenda") employed throughout the media outlets accused of running a campaign of racist propoganda over that same space of time.

I see.

Uhh don't take his unwillingness to respond to your pathetic and disingenuous commentary as him conceding to your arguments.

It is a known fact that it takes little for you to get on the train of Asian/Muslim blaming. Most threads I see you in it doesn't take long before your posting random graphics/charts and talking about Pakistani(insert other) culture being incompatible etc etc etc. You almost always seem to focus on the same groups and or skirt on the edge of saying what it is you really want to say.

 

[Bassmansam]

I thought it was well known that humans tend to stick to those who are similar to them. It's no wonder then that humans who look/act different are treated differently.

My opinion of that content hasn't changed. I don't suddenly hate Wesley Snipes or Al Matthews. Just that with modern content I sometimes wonder if some people got a role to tick a box. That should not be the thought process at all but it's quite blatantly happening in the industry these days.

Nice bit of covert sniping with the, "I see."

If you look for something hard enough, you'll find it - whether it's there or not.

I wonder why people such as yourself are so invested in "finding" racism, everywhere you look...

Does it make you feel good? Does believing the UK to be a place full of racists allow you to feel good and special and morally superior?

I can't remember where I read it but I do remember an interesting article quite some time ago that suggested that "moral crusading" and feeling superior does give people an endorphin rush or something similar.

It would explain a few things when it comes to white-knighting, protests that rile up mania and so on...

Ironic institutional racism and sexism is given a pass because the lie that is forced representation is preferable to the nigh-impossible task of doing it honestly.

They have to because otherwise they'll get complaints from the easily offended mobs on Twitter and the bad publicity that comes with it. That's why I called it a woke tyranny, it might be a soft tyranny but it's a tyranny none-the-less, people are forced to conform and act in a certain way through fear of reprisals when being seen to have stepped out of line. It's more cultural and subtle (ie. peer pressure/cancel culture/employment termination) than people being carted off in the dead of night and jackboots stomping on your head but it doesn't make it any less tyrannical in terms of how it controls and coerces people.

Even if you eradicate racism completely (real actual racism that is not just whatever the woke redefine it as) you are never going to get equal representation everywhere, try rolling a dice 6 times and see if lands on each of the 6 sides. For it to happen takes a conscious effort and that requires proactively recognising people along racial lines and letting it influence how you act which is what the civil rights movements and activists like Martin Luther King were originally fighting against.

Admittedly I only saw a small sample in my few hours at my mate's but I didn't see one Chinese or other East Asian person in the ads. Therefore I am absolutely outraged on their behalf!

Like you say, it gets into a right mess because you can't possibly represent everyone all the time and it ends up coming across as a bit odd when you try within a very limited scope.

Sigh, things really are depressing these days.

Infact if it was representative on tv ads you'd see 85% white British and only 15% non white British according to 2011 census data.

Also we are told that the diverse cultures are more likely to be living in poverty so you would think that targeting them with adverts on tv would be less profitable than targeting other groups.

Presumably then we see a conflict between representation and reason for representation, which makes me wonder what the actual reason for this...

Taking note of a persons skin colour and allowing it to influence behaviour is what allowed 1500+ white girls to be systematically groomed and raped by majority Pakistani gangs. Racial identity politics is toxic in so many ways. If local Labour councils and woke police officers just treated all people as equal under the law they could have dealt with it earlier on and it wouldn't have become so widespread.

1500+ abused girls up and down the country would probably argue that the UK is rigged in favour of ethnic minorities.
