I wonder if folks in the other thread talking about sending the military to North Philly to lock down/raid the neighborhood will wake up this morning with a changed heart? Or, will they continue on living on with that viewpoint in their heart? I guess we'll see (they probably won't change).

I seem to remember a very highly upvoted comment about how Cecil B Moore would weep(with the assumption the shooter was black)

Don't think the truth will matter. Despite the fact tons of ppl in rural areas own ATVs and have no idea what "bike life" even is....some people in the OG thread saw he owned dirt bikes and pivoted to him being "influenced" by "north Philly bike life".

Oh, for sure. I feel like if you've reached the point of saying things like (and I paraphrase), "they should go door to door through the neighborhood and raid each home", your POV has been settled WAY before this case, or any new facts about it.

Genuinely the dumbest take imaginable, but if you’re addicted to your simplistic narratives and too small to cut it in the real world, you’re gonna end up grasping at straws. It’s fucking embarrassing.

Please report racist content. We can't be in every thread at all times.

Does it have to be outright or do dogwhistles count?

Anything and everything should be reported. We know a dogwhistle when we see one, and we do our best to remove content before it's even reported. But we can't have eyes on every thread at all times.

How do we report dog whistles? They skirt around it but talking about the neighborhoods instead of the residents.

Doesn't take much to get them to show their fascist tendencies
