CAUSED? Probably not.

Enhanced? Expanded? Encouraged? Leveraged? Pick which one you like; they all work.

CAUSED? Sounds like faux-cleverness of the racist dog comment, part 2.

EW

Is this is what happens when you can’t wiggle yourself out of the hole you’ve dug??

Denied a job? Yes. A person of another race got the job? Yes.

Grandparents never owned any real estate of any kind. Parents denied mortgage? Yes.

Parents never had “high paying jobs”. Were they “overlooked” ? I don’t know. They didn’t spend their whole lives bleating aboutt it.

Do you guys seriously not understand the concept of White Privilege? Not in the “I’m going to use it as a racist weapon to denounce people based on the colour of their skin” way that “Mazumbo” and others use, but the actual, legitimate thing.

Like… if you want to break it down to the simplest terms:
There is disparity between the races. I don’t think anyone can deny that.
Picture that as a bar graph.
The bit that white folks have over other races?
That’s white privilege.

Obama being a “Black President”? That’s white privilege.

The wage disparity between whites and others? That’s white privilege.

The fact that there’s a need for something like BET? That’s white privilege.

There are many, many little ways that life is just a little bit easier for white folks that we don’t even notice and take for granted.

How to get us all on the same page (as opposed to the “It’s our turn now” attitude that some folks have) and to a point of true equality…
THAT is a “Big Conversation” we need to have.

Please feel free to provide proof to the contrary

You keep pushing this, as though you’re preaching something no one knows.

It also… you know… doesn’t really address my point.
You’re just spewing your usual hate.

Right.

Try honesty.

I feel the destruction of this historical site is a desecration to those that were laid to rest there but karma is a very real thing and I’d rather she takes care of it while I concentrate on living my life here and now. Your outright racism does nothing to solve any issues, unlike the name you dishonorable carry. But that’s just my opinion.

Or is it ok when ‘they’ do it?

Why have you elected to completely ignore the PLP’s role (or lack thereof) in this matter? They were the Government of the day and were more concerned with SDOs and special big business interests than preserving our national heritage.

Had the OBA been culpable in this, your posts would be ridiculing and attacking them left right and centre but your conspicuous silence proves you care more about the PLP than Bermuda.

Your blind loyalties and hypocrisy are as clear as day.

Betty Trump and PLP – party before country since 1998, one desecrated grave at a time.

If it hadn’t been possible to build at Tuckers Town, then the resort would have probably been built elsewhere in Bermuda and the land there would not be worth such a fortune.

I don’t know all the facts. I don’t like what happened then or with this recent SDO. If it was done with malice, then it is disgusting.

You’re missing a comma after “were” and have added full stops where none are needed, as well as mixed up your inverted commas.

It should read:

“That is “were”, not “where” and “it’s”, not “it’s”.”

If you’re going to correct someone, you should make sure you, yourself, are correct.

But if you think that there is some plan by white people in general to erase the past, you’re wrong.
If you think that the people that ARE trying to do that (and please note that I don’t deny that there are people doing that) are doing it because of the colour of their skin and not because they are evil, then, well, that’s racist. That’s the assumption of moral superiority based solely on the colour of someone’s skin.
Do you get that?
If you think someone does evil things simply because of the colour of their skin, or that a group of people that share the same skin colour are actively trying to do evil… that’s racist.

As for “Who discovered America?”, it seems that you’re already making a negative assumption based on my skin colour.
My answer would be “As far as I know, based on evidence found, many scientists believe humans hit the Americas between 20-30,0000 years ago.”

Does ANYONE over the age of about 8 believe that Columbus discovered America?

You also lie, like, all the time.

That has nothing to do with my heritage and everything with you being a disgusting, racist, dishonest demagogue.

White people’s past has nothing to do with your constant dishonesty and hypocrisy.
