We're only lying to ourselves if we think we've made progress with racism. It's a shame, but such is life.
I still find that animated gif to be hilarious.
No, we certainly have made progress (only talking about in the USA here). But how much is very dependent upon where you're talking about specifically in the country.Quote:

Be it based on race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, political beliefs or something else... haters gunna hate.
Now, add in aliens or something and we'd probably collectively come together as a species so we can just all hate them instead.
That's honestly about the only way I can see us getting past all the differences we assign to each other to dislike.
It isn`t a fair comparison, the black guy is dressed like the Trailer Park Boys.
And apparently the Black Guy's scenario was done in Hollywood while the other guy was in LA. Or something.Quote:

Back then it was forced, now black people do it freely all in the name of making money of of poverty, pestilence, disease, and violence. And in reality currently blacks commit more crimes against whites than whites commit against blacks it just just isn't reported by the media because as far as the media and far left is concerned blacks are all victims and nothing is truly their fault. Trayvon martin was portrayed by the leftist media as an innocent early teenage victim of the big and bad white Latino Zimmerman (BTW, I have no respect for Zimmerman). And this new case about the man who shot to death a black teenager for playing his music too loud (he was found guilty of attempted second-degree murder murder BTW.) and the first degree charge will be re-tried because of a hung jury.
BTW I bet none of you heard of the 4 black torturing and killing 3 whites a few days ago....

Lesson learned: Attempting to break into a car is a dumbass thing to do in the first place.

There are tons of good black characters in the Marvel universe, and there have been numerous matchups that have been called the Fantastic Four. This is just a lazy cop out to vie for a quick buck IMO.
So is Sue Richard going to be black too? Seing as how the invisible woman is his sister and all.Quote:
