Admission: I must be old 'n stoopid because I keep having to look up what 'gas lighting' means.
This was my first reference for the term from when it came back into use regarding things political ... and have always linked to it when there was any question as to what it was as a mind control thing. Extremely effective tool btw when well executed.
Stop this fascist gaslighting Without white progressives like me to supervise them, ethnic minorities are helpless and easily exploited

Not that fond of Twitter, but this is a good op-ed piece. 'Fascist' is a little over the top but understandable given the context.
Admission: I must be old 'n stoopid because I keep having to look up what 'gas lighting' means. The 'prejudice of low expectations', by way of contrast, is self-explanatory.

Secret wish: Canadian Red Fascists/historical revisionists and culturally superior self-styled Canadian progressives learn Spanish and visit Bolivia. The Aymara look like they are still in full on struggle with Spanish colonialism from over half a millennia ago.
The socio-economic outcomes in Bolivia amply illustrate the downside of clinging to historical victimhood.
What does the BLM stand for? Black Lives Matter to white police officers? Is it still open season for black civilians to kill other black civilians? I read this piece in the New Yorker on the death of 13-year old Adam Toledo and came away with some rather cynical conclusions and questions. The article: The Killing of Adam Toledo and the Colliding Cycles of Violence in Chicago If Adam had not been shot by police at 2 AM, within a few years, he would have either been shot and killed by a black civilian or he would have shot and killed a black civilian. What is up here? Black lives matter to the police and the authorities but do not matter to other black folks? Or are 'white liberals' expected to continuously shower certain black communities with low expectations?
What you said... I agree with.
And another thing... are "white liberals" saying minorities are not smart enough to figure out how to get an I.D?
I also agree.
Yeah, and so if I get this correct, only white people are smart enough to figure out how to get an I.D. ? That seems to be the message received on this side of the tracks. Sounds pretty offensive to me.
The bigotry of low expectations is all about making money and keeping the "right" people down in perpetuity in one easy operation. Racism is big, big business. Federal money is at stake to fix things that never get fixed, run expensive programs that show few results, just dog and pony shows that benefit the hustlers operators much more than their clients.
Within a year or two based on the current track of things, MLK, Jr. will have been canceled and erased from our history ...
Upon further reflection ... it appears to me that the so called Systemic Racism talking point is really the manifestation of those who engage in the bigotry of low expectations. Not from illegal discrimination. Or the alleged hatred laid at the feet of others in order to deflect.
