Community Soap Box (Page 5) (Post deleted by WHlSKY ) WHlSKY: You brought up colour. Isn’t your point that the book (and by extension its author) is racist? Now it appears that she is writing on her race. What’s your next move? Maybe consult with fox news for talking points. (Post deleted by WHlSKY ) WHlSKY: Looks like you need to read the book, Lori. You have some comprehension issues yourself. There wouldn’t be any need to even have the racism talk with kids if mf didn’t create and fuel the situation. You want the freedom to say racist shít while Trump was around. Now you’ve caused this push back. WHlSKY: People are just tired of the constant shít and calling it out. What does that have to do with me? (Post deleted by WHlSKY ) WHlSKY: At what point did you start caring about how kids feel? Before or after telling a boy not to play with dolls or he’ll burn in hell? This isn’t about the kids, it’s about you and how you feel and the fear you have. (Post deleted by WHlSKY ) WHlSKY: Tell me which kid was spoken to on how he/she feels? And when you said Floyd’s family are druggies, and to create a statue of him pointing a gun at a pregnant woman, were you thinking how that’ll his kids feel? Don’t bs me, Lori. (Post deleted by WHlSKY ) Nicotina: Hints & tips for lori (or anyone for that matter); - racism and bigotry are morally wrong - criticising the behaviour of a person is acceptable. Criticising a person based on the colour of their skin, their ethnicity, their sexuality, their religion or lack thereof, their country of origin is not acceptable. - when using terms, ensure that you are aware of the definitions of those terms. More so when you use two terms together that are mutually exclusive. This is not an extensive list and may be added to in the future. WHlSKY: Of course you don’t know which kid, because as I said it isn’t about the kids. It’s about you and how you feel. (Post deleted by WHlSKY ) (Post deleted by WHlSKY ) Nicotina: So what lori is really saying is that she approves of racism, bigotry, hatred, derogatory terms to describe others, and not using correct terminology. (Post deleted by WHlSKY ) Nicotina: You misunderstand the point of CRT then lori. It is not meant to criticise individuals, it is to explain why certain biases exist, how people suffer due to racism, bigotry, and biases. If we learn the history of oppression of certain groups (such as women) then we can understand how our behaviour contributes to division even though that is not our intention. We then have a choice as to if we want to improve our society for all members or not.
