    Did you just compare systemic racism to the black plague? Another apples and oranges comparison. The main difference between the two is that one is integrated heavily into modern society still, and remains an active, massive influence on the lives of innocent beyond just fatalities, and the other ended in 1353.

    Both were prevalent in the past and are not now.

    Care to provide any evidence white supremacy is integrated heavily into modern society, has a massive influence on the lives of the innocent?

    We’ve both already agreed they’re rare I don’t know why you keep bringing that up like I’ve been ignoring it.

    How can something that is rare be “integrated heavily into modern society still, and remains an active, massive influence on the lives of innocent beyond just fatalities”?

    You are effectively taking the side of white supremacists even trying to suggest that they’re in some way equal to Muslims.

    I’ve never suggested white supremists are equal to Muslims, this is the straw man you keep pushing. I used the term radical Muslims, you even acknowledged it. Your gotcha moment isn’t there Colombo.

      Just because you don’t experience systemic racism on a day-to-day basis doesn’t mean it isn’t prevalent. Your privilege is showing.

      POC get statistically higher rates on loans, lower pay, and inferior healthcare, especially women.

      Dude, you’re the one that first tried to compare the two, go back and read your first comment in this thread if you don’t believe me.

      If you’re gonna stay this dedicated to a thread make sure to follow your own arguments.

        You haven’t provided any instances of white supremacy being prevalent. Are you now trying to say white supremacy is prevalent, I could have sworn you conceded it was rare.

        POC get statistically higher rates on loans, lower pay, and inferior healthcare, especially women.

        Source? Did they correct for wages and credit score or is this another sensationalized study to get morons whipped up into a frenzy?

        You do know you can compare things and say that certain things are similar but not claim they are equal right?

          Once again, you made the comparison first so I’m waiting for your example before I provide my proof.

          The burden of proof is on the person that first made a comparison statement.

          Name a white supremacist who is not a racist, and I’ll happily oblige.

            You keep clinging to that request, it’s not the gotcha you think it is. Every claim you’ve made as to why it’s key to my argument has been thourghly refuted.

                I have, remember both extremist Muslim attacks and white supremists attacks are rare.

                  Not if one is baked into modern society lol.

                  You’re still trying to compare two completely different things which just shows your lack of understanding of both of them.
