Funnily enough, on another forum I recently resurfaced on, I've been engaged in a discussion with somebody I know to be a caring, erudite and thoughtful guy, based on over a decade's experience of him, and he's saying all the things about 'perpetual victimhood' and how whites are functionally discriminated against, and is flabbergasted that people of colour don't trust the police sufficiently to want to join up.Being aware of this is becoming more important now than it ever was, since somehow, the hateful people have managed to manipulate the public discourse in a way, thats throwing me off quite a bit.

I mean, I am no expert debater, but you would asssume, that a position like pacifism would win on its merits, ...
