@@drdoomer8553 Nah, they made sense. Now a days, a historic lack of privilege among an identity group affords privilege to those currently in that group, and a historic perception of privilege among an identity group makes it acceptable to mistreat today's group members. All apart of the rich and powerful's plan to sow seeds of division, and keep that oppressed / opressor pendulum swinging, so that everyone else is too busy fighting pointless battles among themselves, instead of forming action groups to tackle mutual problems.

[@drdoomer8553]

Mr. Anonymous that argument falls apart when you realize the “privilege” afforded isn’t even a fraction to the problems caused by the system. No one is saying it’s ok to mistreat the “privileged” class, i was simply pointing out the man’s level of humility compared to his peers. If you want to argue about how corrupt capitalist elites are that’s one thing I can agree on, but to go as far as to say blacks are the real privileged class in this country is mind numbingly dense. You’d have to ignore nearly every race study in economics, policy, policing, judicial, generational wealth, etc. And gaslight your own minuscule problems to believe so.

This is just insane. How can a 91 year old be a police officer. I honestly do not think this would be allowed in the UK simply because at such an age you cannot do your duties.
