I woke to go potty and decided to catch up on the latest Jab news. Instead, we got race & bait for $100. I feel picked on. Im white as can be. I am Scottish Highlander before I am white though. Baby Boy Kirk. My greatest of great grandpas from long ago got his land ripped from him and he took off to North Carolina. I love all colors of people. Grace T, please send me a sign copy of your book. Great stuff and way to debate the boys.

Australians are not amused by American commentators calling it a "police state" because of its rigid covid controls --
“Australia is a police state” says country where police are 17 times more likely to murder civilians — The Shovel
"Police murdering people is so common, each month needs its own Wikipedia entry".www.theshovel.com.au
Australia has been labelled a “police state” by far-right pundits who live in a country where police murdering people is so common, each month needs its own Wikipedia entry.
The talking heads, all living in the United States – a country where the incarceration rate is four times higher than Australia’s, and where 1 in every 150 citizens is in jail, the highest rate in the world – have criticised Australia’s approach to managing the COVID-19 pandemic, calling it “tyrannical” without even the slightest hint of irony.

Marginalized? Jackass? I decline your offer to change the topic.
The point being discussed is that “racism”, by your own definition, has nothing at all do do with power, and everything to do with animosity, prejudice, and antagonism.
Kendi wants to change that definition so that certain ethnic groups are bad and other ethic groups are better. That is straight up, old school racism which has no place in our schools at any level.

As you can see he was projecting earlier when he called someone a "whiney little bitch".
isn’t using the b word sexist? Is being sexist somehow less morally wrong than being racist?
for that matter isn’t macdre telling me that my lgbtq oppression doesn’t really matter as far as power hierarchies are concerned also bigoted? I’m assuming he is straight and a guy (though I want to be careful about gender assuming so maybe I should refer to him as xhe?)…but shouldn’t I be outraged xhe discounted my lgbtq status (a status for which I’ve experienced far more discrimination than my race)?
Mac Dre has yet to articulate how we differentiate the hierarchy of oppression among people (is it by blood percentage, self declared status, historical grievance….and who out ranks who) or if there even is a hierarchy (can white people be racist against each other…does that mean nonwhites can’t be racist even against each other and have a complete pass) but I have some bad news for you crush while we await macdre s ruling.
As a Scotsman potentially the only people who can be racist against you are those pesky English descendants (most likely dar members)…man I always knew those English were the worst of the worst what with king George and all his what whatting…even the Irish and poles have a leg up on you…sorry bud.

Now, you are just making stuff up. I posted Oxfords definition of racist. You were acting like a jackass when you said the word power was not in the definition.
I pointed out that the word marginalized was in Oxfords definition of racist and asked you to define it since you were acting hella lame.
So, can you define marginalized? I’m waiting smarty pants.
MacDre

You are dumb. I simply stated that your sexual orientation and disability was not relevant to the analysis on racist. In other words, sexism is a separate and distinct issue.
MacDre

More dumb shit. If you have a problem with the way Oxford defines racist, take it up with them. Don’t kill the messenger!!!
And I accepted your explanation for that at least arguendo
again can I be racist against a person of Jewish, Arab, Asian, African American, Native American or Mexican decent? If so what’s the hierarchy, or do I just get a free pass since I’m oppressed? Can white people be racist against each other? Can an African American be racist against a Native American?
you are still ducking my question
1- the word marginalized applied to the victim of the racism. The definition contains no requirement that the racist be the one responsible for the marginalization.
2- the definition only states that racism is typically towards marginalized people. Racism towards non-marginalized groups is still well within the definition. Kendi’s racism is an example of racism towards a non-marginalized group.

Ask Oxford, it’s their definition.

I didn’t ask for your analysis of the definition of marginalized, I asked for the definition of marginalized.
You get hella lame around the issue of racism, so we have to take this one step at a time.
You have the audacity to opine on issues regarding racist and you don’t even understand the definition of racist. Are you trying to change Oxfords definition of racist because of white guilt?
if there’s one thing we’ve learned from the covid talk is an appeal to authority from either side isn’t going to cut it
it’s clear you either can’t or won’t defend the position you’ve taken. I wasn’t even asking you to defend anything…just to clarify exactly how this system works which you’ve been unable to do.
I’m more lefty than dad4 when it comes to social issues so I remain open to your position…I’m just disappointed you weren’t able to fully articulate one beyond the dictionary says so. And as has been pointed out to you it doesn’t even say what you think it does (establishing an exclusive relationship between power and racism).
Ps we’ve had quite a few face plants in these threads. I’ve had them. Dad4 has had them. Even ol espola has caused some. But to lay a marker like you did and then fall back on “the dictionary says so” is pretty epic.

I just wanted the definition of racist to be clear because I thought some folks had a misunderstanding of the word because their analysis was off. Now, that Oxfords definition is clear I’m gonna remove myself from the discussion and y’all can carry on.
Let's not get of topic folks. This is Vaccine section. Listen up and listen well: America has become a Pill. "Bought & brought to you by Pfizer." WTF up to the plan and the scam. I heard from a dear Doctor pal of mind yesterday that some scary information will be coming out this week regarding this and a lot of that regarding the jab. Vaers is reporting 5000x% increase in death rate for the Jabbed. No joke!!! They slip this stuff in on the weekends. Dr. Fraud is after your children and said so on TV. Not one Q about all his lies. He wants all 5-11 years in his doctors office asap to receive the beast. These evil monsters are doing it out in the open. Red October, the hunters will now be hunted and EXPOSED in broad daylight. Nowhere to run and nowhere to hide. No gasoline!!! Alec shooting the wife of an attorney working on the HRC cheating law firm is becoming a great crime thriller. Be careful what you inject in your veins everyone. Just say no, I love you all 
1. As has been pointed out to you it doesn’t say what you think it does
2. That’s not all you were doing…you were making an ideological point
3. Some maintained your point was wrong. I questioned it and asked you to clarify. You couldn’t other than say that’s what the dictionary say (which again see 1)
