Are Black People obsessed with race? Are they conditioned through experience to see things that way?

I have a good friend who is a black woman. She seems to find a racist slight even where none exists. She thinks the fries on my plate look better and the waiter gave the black girl the worst plate. Things like that. She views the world through a racial lens.

I'm black myself and I'm not that way. People like that are just crazy 🙄.

She thinks this way because her race is an issue to most other people most of the time. There is a mountain of statistical evidence to support this.

Can we prove the fries thing is racist? No. It's like if she apples for a job and doesn't get it, you can't prove racism.

But you can prove that black people are less likely to get jobs than white people despite equivalent qualifications based on name alone.

@CountScrofula In SA statistics show it's more likely a black person will get the job even with lesser qualifications. Institutionalised reverse racism.

@MeisterAndrew Evidence?

MeisterAndrew · 41-45, M

@CountScrofula Statistics. It's also no surprise when it's legally required that a certain large percentage of your workforce be black but there's no minimum set for white and you can choose it to be all black if you want.

It's also not just work but for university black students are given preference independent of how qualified they are.

Simply not my experience with blacks..
My live-in GF is black and definitely not like that..

Only the ones that develop the victim mentality because they can't face their failures in life are their own.

Racist *people* are. They come in all colors.

@Karmalives I wouldn't say she is racist. I would say she has a victimhood complex and is insecure about her own race.

@SuicideBiProxy2 here we go another label.

That isn’t her being racist.
You might try to look through life in a different lens.

i have an inlaw like that... i just cut ties with her.

lying about things such as racism is not going to bode well with anyone no matter the 'color'.

then she wonders why everyone is against her.. well except that she's black.

(but most her heritage stems from germany, ireland and canada.)

@sighmeupforthat you jist said Canada and it made me wonder what kind of heritage canadians have. I know the U.S. people supposedly had the indians. What did the canadians have?

Yeah, they're not against her because she's black. She's just a crazy b***h 🤣.
