They are facts. As if I could be arsed providing footnotes on a BigFooty post.
But anyway:
There are 14 charts here to show the Black/White wealth inequality is as high as 1968

I'm so confused by your position. You are providing evidence of the inequalities that lead to the creation of BLM so despite you suggesting otherwise you seem to be well aware of at least one of the things the cause is fighting for. Is it just that you think BLM should already have made significant progress in two years??? Like seriously?? Is it your contention that because things haven't changed profoundly two years into a movement a group of people should vote for someone who is very clearly racist?

What are you actually saying??

This is from only 5 days ago. Recent enough?

This is evidence of absolutely nothing without context. The main one being what are the ethnic percentage breakdowns overall ect ect

Not that I am in any way disputing it's accuracy. I just mean you need more information to make any meaningful analysis of it.

I believe the movement was used by politicians to help get themselves elected that don't particularly care about the movement at all.
Bar providing lip-service and very much superficial things to attract votes.
You seem to be impressed by this lip service, but that is all it is I am afraid.
All the while wealth inequality has grown at the fastest rate in history.
Anti-fata I also believe are no help to anyone and are actually Pro-fascist.
They are mostly white boys from well to do families who use it as currency while in college to get laid.
Once they leave college and get a nice job they will be supporting the same system that keeps black and poor people down.
I also believe for a human rights movement to occur, it will have to be all races.
The system is set-up to create division and turn white against black, rich against poor precisely so this can't happen.

I don't know what to say. Everything's great.
Everyone's happy. Inequality has been fixed.

As Bodycount and Ice-T used to sing,
Poor lives don't matter.

He got that 100% right in that song.

What? I have zero opinion of you as I don't know you and don't ever judge someone whose shoes I have not walked in. I haven't seen one fact you have presented (only opinions either yours or others) but maybe I am not smart enough to read between the lines. If that's the case please feel free to correct me.

Ok then. Show some facts that blm has improved peoples lives.

And not the leaders of blm who now own a heap of real estate from the money they siphoned off from blm funding. You can google that too. It’s a fact.

I saw someone post up a long list of black people tweeting about how useless biden is, and how he has done nothing for black people. He even defunded black colleges. The opposite of what trump did.

These people still don’t understand the democrats only care about black people once every 4 years. And once the election is over, they go back to not giving a damn about them. It’s like the people of corio who continually vote labor, then complain that because they are in a safe labor seat that they don’t do anything for them. And the marginal seat to the south gets a heap of money thrown at it. Of course that happens, they already have your vote stitched up. They don’t need to buy it.

It was amazing that biden could say racist stuff like “if you don’t vote democrat, you ain’t black”, and no one batted an eyelid. Imagine if trump said that. The whole country would have exploded.

Quinton de Kock still central to South African cricket's plans - Graeme Smith

De Kock remains on leave as Dean Elgar, Temba Bavuma appointed to leadership roles

www.espncricinfo.com

It might be the real underlying issue, the captaincy, doesn't sound like him losing the gig was overly mutual from that

South Africa seems to have been churning thru T20 captains, especially this year - going by the Wiki page which lists their captains, there's been 4 players who have captained their T20 side for at least 1 match this year

Exactly this.

Maybe they have hired ex-australia post workers.

My delivery finally arrived yesterday. 27 days to go from canberra to geelong. Bravo.

They also need to learn to put more chicken salt on the chips. The torquay rd store is terrible at it

The real reason dinosaurs became extinct...

 

[Spazz Cat]

Man this Shiba Inu is just pumping. I check and take 200 bucks out.
Then I go check it again and it's already back to where it was.

 

[Spazz Cat]

Just an update for Shell.

 

[Spazz Cat]

My PulseFloki Inu is not fairing so well however. Down 300% from where I bought it.

I was @ that shop.
I went to the servo over the road to get petty for the mower.

Thought I would get couple lunch time specials.

Sorry out of boneless chicken.

Ok can please sub it for something else e.g. strip,tender extra chips .

No.

Please ask .

No, sorry that special is now over.

Ok just like that special is over.

Ok can I have another meal.

No that's AP only .

Grrr.

The other meal was not needed to be ordered on the ap.
And your not helping on offering a alternative.

No.

They just stood there..like muppet.

Went to barkey insteed.

Surely it's not hard to over ride the deals.

FU KFC.

I hate it when they rigidly stick to rules on what can be ordered. I think a lot of it comes down to how experienced the operator is. If they are new they don’t want to venture away from the standard, cause they might get in trouble.

They are so much better at it at hungry jacks. They usually mix and match no problem.

Hopefully the new armstrong creek kfc that has just opened is better. It’s much closer to home than the torquay rd one:

There was 2 kents fighting one with chainsaw near there few years back.

None of them was me ...

Is anyone in here familiar with the Jodi Arias case?

Great viewing if you're so inclined. I've watched her court case multiple times, she's absolutely whacko.
