Author Topic: Are any people in America actually oppressed?  (Read 22759 times)

If you, as an uneducated privileged person, dismiss someone else's problems, the only thing you're actually doing is contributing to oppression. This goes both ways. If someone tells you your opinion doesn't matter, they're technically oppressing you. When radical feminists say all men should die, they're oppressing the entire male gender actively.

I think you're being too liberal with the application of 'oppression'

Not really. Oppression has degrees as well. There's no threshold that you have to reach in order to be oppressing someone. If you stop someone from exercising their rights, if you tell them they cant do something because of who they are, if you insult them, attack them, physically abuse them, etc. you are an oppressor.

just because bigger problems exist in some other backwater country doesn't mean you should ignore your own countries problems

When you think about it, nobody in America is really oppressed.
well...that was easy

Just want to ask you, not disagreeing or agreeing, but doesn't that apply to anti-sjw people who say "girls are being oppressed daily in saudi arabia so you can't complain about manspreading"

Since african americans are statistically poor due to the lasting effects of slavery, segregation etc.

For that brown townogy to work you need two problems with different levels of severity

manspreading isn't a problem

jesus christ

this p much sums up african americans, the only way they usually break from poverty is through music, or NBA.

its sad tbh.

manspreading is a huge problem. every year hundreds of women are killed in a manspreading related incident.

I mean music and NBA are a must for black people. You don't even have to live in detroit. If you don't listen to future and play NBA 2k you aren't legally black.

funny enough, most NBA/NFL players rely on their careers to sustain themselves because they never got good enough grades to fall back on something else if their career fails

funny enough
I don't really think its funny that members of a race are denied a healthy educational environment.
