Weren't the dark ages a long period of nobody doing anything or being anybody because the church said so?

nope, wrong.
I remember a looong time ago the Met police started a program to educate officers in 'black culcha'. Simple stuff like white people tend to look you in the eye when they're telling the truth and away when they're lying, blacks do the reverse. I'm sure this has led to a few misunderstandings.Jay wrote:
They do, and there is some overlap, but if you take a cop that doesn't have much experience with black culture, doesn't listen to rap music, etc and you have him police in a predominantly black neighborhood he's going to feel nervous and skittish because he can't pick up the social signals. Things like body language, tone of voice, posture, these are all subconscious cues that we all develop during childhood. If we have two groups of people developing on parallel paths, and with limited crossover, there will be a lot more animosity, misunderstanding, and eventually hatred, that develops. This is because, fundamentally, people are speaking a different language. Sure, they're both superficially speaking the same English language, but they are using different dialects and the social cues can more easily be missed or misinterpreted.
We received some of this training while we were in Kuwait before we headed into Iraq. They gave us a week of instruction in different ways to talk, not to use your left hand, to never show the soles of your feet etc. and it was designed as a crash course in Arabic culture so that we would be less likely to offend the local populace, and because there are vast cultural difference between theirs and ours. Culture needs to be translated too, not just language.

Interesting article on the front page of National Review titled "What Conservative Law Enforcement Reform Should Look Like" This is the top comment in response
This happens often with National Review. The authors will accept some basic premise and the commentators will reject it and complain. The authors will give some meaningful ideas and the commentators will reject it and complain. Conservatives don't want to be better. It reminds me of that song "She Don't Want to be Saved Don't Save Her" Since you guys like rap music anaolgies. The song is actually pretty political for a song about thots.

dilbert is all for social democracies and increased tax and spend, when it's for white people of course.
the long eighteenth century has been a term in literary studies since before hobsbawm. it's commonly used to describe british history and british culture. i realise it might not have the same purchase or relevance in america. but please stop telling me i'm wrong because you have a BA in history. i was a fucking history publisher. i know TERMS foolSuperJail Warden wrote:

Throwing money at the black community achieves literally nothing, tax and spend needs to be carefully directed in any event.
The only really useful tax and spend is investment in productive infrastructure, most other govt spending is wasted.
Infrastructure and defence are the only capital spending govts should really be involved in, Health, security and defence the only real day to day spending.
Handing people free money is worse than doing nothing.

'understanding and commonality' are just buzzwords. people will understand one another with comity when black people are paid as much as their white colleagues, like women and men, for doing the same role. it's not complicated. but it does involve you as a white male making concessions and ceding privileges.
That way no-one needs to cede anything.
women and minorities are paid less than white men for the same role. it is common. and not even only in 'manly' careers, either. literature professors get paid less when they are women than men, sometimes by up to 20%. 'when they earn the same'. you sound like a bootlicking faggot to be honest with you. pay people equally and maybe then you won't have to be kept awake at night worrying about militant lesbians. they'll have a lot less to be angry about.
which is why larssen proposed a bunch of things that had nothing to do with 'giving people free money'. derp derp. it's almost like you don't want to see non-whites raise themselves up.Dilbert_X wrote:

We should increase social services spending on minorities but also increase the size and militarization of security forces in their communities. Carrot and stick. Either you listen to your well paid teacher in a fancy new classroom or the cop comes and flips you.

Lol. He probably paid to race too.

Coworker at my old job got pulled over for doing 70 in a 35 at night. He was ex-military and his excuse was he never drove in civilian life before the last year or so he got let off with a warning. He was white.

Years ago I got pulled over for making a left turn from a left turn lane. The light was yellow. Supposedly, I ran a red. The cop went and checked and it was indeed yellow. He then tried to get me for paperwork or whatever instead. It was annoying, but at least I wasn't shot.
You'd think with the premise debunked that there'd no longer be any reason to keep me there. Fishing for fines for sure.
Also have been tailed once through a neighborhood along like 20 turns before pulling into a store. Not fun. Maybe he thought I didn't stop long enough at a sign and decided to monitor for jank.

how ironic, given jay's wailing about the unfair treatment of papa john, that one of the first sponsors to drop tucker carlson after his bizarre remarks was ... papa johns.
weird how much jay's lines sound like tucker's too, isn't it?

The exodus began after Carlson, who has described white supremacy in America as a “hoax”, suggested the protests inspired by the death of George Floyd were not about race.
“This may be a lot of things, this moment we’re living through, but it is definitely not about black lives. Remember that when they come for you, and at this rate, they will,” he told his viewers.

Papa John got booted from his own company. He still gets his dividends and royalties but he has zero say in how the company runs or does business. I wouldn't be surpirsed if Papa John's new leadership is skittish about appearing to be the racist pizza. For what its worth they make better pizza than Dominoes and Pizza Hut.uziq wrote:

All are shit and overpriced, in Europe especially. You can get decent local pizza for half the price of dominoes, papa johns, ny pizza. I have no idea how their business models survive here.

Unless you are Italian I don't want to hear European's thoughts on Pizza.
a lot of pizza places here are italian, owned by italian families. it's very common in the UK.
