Who's talking about averages or the majority? We're talking about the people at the top.

Also, if you came into the country as a white immigrant on the 1900, it was easier to get a well paying job and possibly getting to the top. Black guys had very little chance of getting a job that paid well. and essentially no chance of getting to the top. Please don't tell me you're not insane enough to deny this kind of racism happened in the 1900's.

You understand the entirety of the united states wasnt Selma, Alabama right? Blacks like Thomas Sowell and Ben Carson disprove your point.

I initially was going to go over the studies you mentioned, but I can't even find them in this person's now defunct page, and they are, as you said, not listed in the article, for some reason. It would be a lot of homework to expect from someone a thread in a fetish forum, and you're not even facilitating it a little bit. Starting to wonder if this mythical study really exists, or if it's just a thought experiment.

It's funny how you defend racism essentially doesn't exist, while you yourself being a self-proclaimed racist. Why don't you have the balls to say "This is because the truth is on my side, niggers are inferior, and some CEOs and hiring managers see that despite woke efforts to deny the truth, specially in the initial 2004 study before the whole anti-white rhetoric really gained strength", or something like that? Why do you defend the study is false (in the sense that black people don't really receive less calls for being black), rather than it being true and the results being good and justified? Not even "they are false, but we should strive to make them true"?

I've already put too much effort into this thread, so I'll only answer to some highlights and correct some misinterpretations about what I said earlier, that I'll assume you did by accident and not on purpose.

It's not a conspiracy theory if A: it's true, and B: It's not a conspiracy (they are not colluding with each other). The difference between that and anti-semitic theories is that white people are a majority (in the USA where this was based). Not only that but, since we live in a capitalist society where the wealth of your parents can give you a tremendous head start which you can then turn into more generational wealth to pass on to your children, and past racism (which I hope you won't disagree with) made sure white people carried that head start through generations, means white people are disproportionally wealthy (maybe you think it's deserved and that if black people were really equal to white people they would have gotten over the wealth gap by now, I don't really care, the point is that white people are, without a shadow of a doubt, much more likely to end up in a position of huge, generational wealth). And since we're ruled by capital, those white wealthy individuals are overwhelmingly more likely to be in positions of power. Even if you disagree with all of that, I hope you don't disagree with the fact that, if you look at the top, whether it is politicians or CEOs and big capital, it's mostly white men (and jewish doesn't even come close). If only a few of those white men think even remotely like you (and it's more than "a few" that do), you already have a system that's hurting the opportunities of non-white people, Systemic racism is even bigger than that and involves other societal structures, but that's way beyond the scope of this post. I'm sure you can find video essays explaining what systemic racism is, and if not, I'm happy to find them for you when I have more time.

I'm going to need more than a "trust me, bro, I read it on Twitter", and hopefully any reasonable person does too.

They are for gender equality by elevating the rights of women to be the same as those of men, even Sydney admitted so in the video. I would like them to do something when men are under attack, and some feminists (like me and my friends) do, but it's not the movement's job.

Who the fuck is justifying it? I explicitly stated I hate it, and how angry it made me. I even provided my own fucking example to add to yours, I'm ON YOUR SIDE in this one. My point is every feminist also doesn't like it. The facebook post you shared (clearly by feminists, as seen by the comments) was made explicitly to correct the article. The article was not made by feminsts, it was made by a media outlet way to scared of being seen as anti-feminist and overcompensating the other way. My anger is towards the media, not the feminists who never wanted the article to be like that in the first place.
Except you don't see the broader picture, you're here saying "this single point alone won't change my belief about feminism". It never worked like that for me either.

I don't think the joke works, I think they're unhinged, and I said so explicitly, but I still think it's not the same as if it was the other way around, because it's women that are usually the victims of rape, by an overwhelming amount, so the joke "I think we should get to rape men sometimes in compensation", while completely off the rails, wouldn't even make sense if a man said it. If the whole situation were reversed and men were the ones that were usually the victims, yeah, I think this joke would read the same as the original one in our universe.

Never said it did, just that it's hard for you to understand, because you've never lived it.

1- Read what I said again, I never said men are trash, I said a good number of men in the dating market are, and I already said the ame about women.
2- While I wouldn't say men are trash, I wouldn't blame anyone for saying it (when talking about dating specifically), specially if that person had bad experiences with men, and yeah, the exact same goes for saying "women are trash".

BTW I now realize I forgot to mention about "height requirements" in my original post, when I was reading yours I was planning to mention it because they make my blood boil, but it slipped my mind.

I'm not saying it would be OK, just it shouldn't surprise anyone that after being raised like that you end up with those views. I thought I made that clear in my original post.

As I said, this is likely my last reply on the thread, and most definitely my last long one, I've already dedicated too much time and effort to this, so let me just end with one comment:

I might disagree that white people and men are being attacked solely for who they are (in general terms), but even if you do think that's the case, it does not justify going the other way and becoming a racist and a misogynist, if you do that, you are doing the exact same thing you accuse feminism and BLM of doing, using oppression to justify attacks on the perceived oppressors. I consider myself a feminist, but I also ardently advocate for the rights of men, as I believed I proved. I don't care if you think I dissent with the mainstream feminist movement (which sometimes I do), and I don't care if you think I do so from a misguided point of view where I don't see some attacks happening in front of me, the point is I will always do my best to strive for equal opportunity and give everyone a fair shot, because those are my values, and I believe values are what matter the most.

He thinks Blacks and Whites are perfectly equal and the same, ignoring any biological and cultural difference that could explain why whites were able to build modern civilization and succeed better (on average of course) in comparison to blacks. He thinks there is no difference on any level between whites and blacks and that therefore difference can only exist due to society. That's why he comes up with conspiracy theories about whites controlling society in a way that benefits them over other races, although we live in the most anti-racist countries in the world. So it's basically useless to speak with him. In short, he's a leftist.

A common sentiment, unfortunately. People are so caught up in their feel-good nigger pity that some don't stop to think:

"Huh, you know maybe I'm NOT actually the same as people who can't even pretend to pay attention in class, or stick around for their kids, or think of ways to resolve problems that don't involve beating someone or setting something on fire, or form basic fucking legible english. Maybe the idea that I and people with remarkably terrible impulse control are "the same" is nothing but a crutch that we'll be propping them up with forever. Maybe acknowledging what's directly in front of me, rather than jumping through a million hoops and justifications to try and make sense of it all, is the right answer all along. Maybe we AREN'T the same."

See though, THAT would be "Racist", and as we all know: Racism = Bad

Now I'm off to go enjoy some western media, where I can learn about how White People are secretly responsible for every awful thing in human history and how Cleopatra was actually Black this whole time.

1000 times yes, there is nothing hateful to say we are different (on average) on many levels, yet it somehow is equivalent to being Hitler.

One thing I've learnt from reading all of the replies is if you have race realist positions and sentiments, and some normie or lefty accuses you of racism online, just accept it, and don't try and justify yourself or your positions. It's just a tactic meant to put people who know of real differences between races on the backfoot of any conversation and to make them feel bad about being 'immoral', and it doesn't matter how much you argue in good faith, they'll always simplify it down to something that it isn't, because to them it's not about debating the validity of racism, it's about tarnishing your image and poisoning the well of conversation.

I should have stopped replying long ago, you guys just talking amongst yourselves are proving my point for me, keep it up!

Just so nobody gets confused about what "race realism" means, it means nonwhites are worse and racism is common sense (original post)

Not arguing anymore (because it's pointless), just clarifying the semantics.

First of all o agree that arguing is pointless. But I wasn’t aware that you and I were ever arguing anything substantial, and I thought our only disagreement (after clarification) we had was a pure difference of values (you value equality more, I value freedom more), which can’t really be rectified nor should it be really. I can’t really convince you to favour freedom anymore than you can bring me to the side of desiring equality more, so there’s nothing that can be done on that front.

Also race realism to me is simply acknowledging the scientific reality that races are different, and emerge from different environments and social pressures over time and ‘perform’ differently in many a myriad of ways. I don’t even really care if some races have higher or lower IQs I’m more interested in either creating or preserving a culture that values courageousness, responsibility and integrity over trying to minmax for some kind of Utopian pipe dream of a society that was just imagined by a philosopher with mental illness.

Yeah, you and I weren't having like a heated discussion, just a chill-ish argument expressing difference in opinions. And I do value freedom, I just think freedom requires giving everyone a fair shot, once you take away someones opportunities, you take away choices, and at that point, can you really say they're free?

You can disagree, of course, this post is not to argue my point, just clarifying what my point is.

I dont get why everyone who isnt a race realist has a hard time understanding this point.

Honestly, I got accused of racism once when I made a light joke (in the middle of London 😂) about muslims and a friend told me "But *my name*, that's racist" and I said "Yes, so what?". Only valid answer at the point we reached honestly, even in real life.

Equality of opportunity literally, or do you just mean equality of the law? Because a random joe isnt going the have the same opportunity of the child of a president or well conected elite.

And I think that's a bad thing, where you can get in life should be determined as little as possible by the circumstances of your birth. Nature itself already imposes you with enough restrictions from birth, we should not pile up more on top of that. If you want the children of the elite to have more luxuries, that's fine (as long as the elite has earned their position, but that's a whole new topic), but when it comes to opportunities to make it on their own, we should all start on the same square of the board, and right now, were not even playing the same game.

I agree elites shouldve have to earn their position, but what do you mean they can have more luxuraies but also not have more opportunity? those luxuries give them more opportunity. Also i dont see how that isnt a restriction from nature, your genes are determined by your parents. Are you saying it's ok for parents to pass on their genes to kids, but not the resources they acquired in order to pass on their genes?

A nicer car or larger TV doesn't really give you more opportunities to become an elite.

Yes.

Well, technically I'm against the concept of capital in general, (not money, capital, which are assets used to make money just by the way of owning them, with little to no work put into them), so in that ideal world, it would be OK for them to inherit everything, because they couldn't use that to leverage their way into a better social standing.

Marcal91 said:

Well it's more about the connections and money. Or are you saying they should be forced to spend all their money on expensive products so they cant use it on other things?

Yes.

So you are against things like banks, stocks, and owning buisnesses and extra houses?

See I just find the notion of being against capital as a concept pure delusion. Capital is durable goods used to generate wealth through production. Capital is also heavily intertwined with the concept of property (being that they are literally tangible property, such as machinery, buildings, or tools etc). I think the real problem you have is the apparent lack of economic mobility for middle and lower classes, which as a libertarian is the key problem for us to solve. It's more important to instill in people the comfort that they can rise above their 'station of birth' if they put their heads down, work smart, invest wisely, and make good dealings. My problem with the elites isn't that they're often born into their high positions, after all the main reason people become rich and wealthy is so that they can support/spoil their children for the next generation, without that promise, you literally flip the table of human nature as it relates to economics. My real problem with elites is is that they try to pull the ladders up from beneath them to deny others who could be more competent the chance to rise. We have to keep powerful people in check without infringing on any kind of property rights though, and abolishing (acquiescing or nationalizing via the states monopoly on violence) capital and 'equalizing' everyone is the last thing we want to do, because despots take the reigns of power and abuse that power to cement their position whilst trampling on everyone's liberties as history has shown time and time again.
