Newspapers drop Dilbert after racist tirade

[The Oracle]

Scott Adam destroyed his career and legacy in spectacular fashion. But have no fear, grifting for the far-right is profitable.

Grifting eh? .........There's that word again.

 

[canada-man]

Scott Adams, creator of the Dilbert comic strip, has been making low-key racist remarks for the longest time. Finally he decided to put aside all pretense and go on a tirade against black people.
He's now been dropped by hundreds of newspapers, including the syndicate that distributed his un-funny strips.

Money isn't the only thing that matters to people.

In the case of Scott Adam's, he's shown himself to be highly narcissistic, with claims of genius and high IQ. The demise of Dilbert in itself is likely quite a blow.

I think he went to MIT. Goes to show that smart people can be racist and stupid.

Black people hate each other more than any other race ever could.

That statement sounds racist, but it's really just WACKO...

Here's a few examples of some tweets Adams was referring to.

Colonialism is a force for progress

Wrong. Your government views you as a racist in need of Soviet style re-education, minorities view you as a weak beta whom they have a moral right to seek ancestral vengeance on and academia views you as a convenient whipping boy.

Also, if you can’t see the dangers of limiting free speech, you are too ignorant and too lazy to be the recipient of its benefits. I’d quite happily let you and your progeny slide head first into the hell you are so intent on making except for the fact that you’re dragging me and my progeny along with you.

Love when the right bitch about soviet style anything meanwhile bonding with Putin on all levels

I shall shed a tear for Scott Adams the fragile white victim who was only speaking the truth

Now go ahead and google white on black violence and post it here just because you are such an intellectually honest guy right?

Yet the western left are lapping up the concept of the 15 minute city which has been done in the old ussr. The commie block.

The most discriminated against demographic in much of the western world are white heterosexual conservative men-bonus discrimination if they're a practicing Christian.

bullshit

You confuse the crimes that gave the impetus to start this movement with the issues they are concerned about.
That's a basic error.

Oh ya, like these crimes just started recently. You must be new.

 

[John_Jacob]

I don't have to prove nothing to you, because you are nothing but bad intentions.

I made my statement and it's well documents about the struggles of black americans.

It's not a mistake how people like you cut out a lot of history.

Ya, after posting two conspiracy-like statements in a row, I suspect credibility based on things that actually happened isn't your strong suite.

 

[John_Jacob]

@John_Jacob, do you really feel black people born in America could be successful if they only tried harder? Is that what you're basically saying, that there is an even playing field for them, and they can go as far as their talents will take them?

Because, if so, that's a load of shit.

Historically, since reconstruction in the South, the plight of black people has been one of oppression and rules specifically designed to disenfranchise them in one way or the other. They introduced voting regulations that included literacy tests....but would include grandfather clauses that would allow poor illiterate whites to vote. Separate but equal school boards? Sure, sounds great until you realize all the resources go to the white school, while black children are forced to do with lesser equipment. Buying a home to create generational wealth....ever hear of "red lining?" Which was a process where it was impossible for a black family to get a cheap, government backed loan to buy a home, while they were literally giving them away to white families. Then we can look at the environmental racism, which forced blacks to live "on the wrong side of the tracks" metaphorically speaking. Black communities frequently have highways/expressways going through them, or rail traffic. The pollution and environmental hazards are significantly worse for these communities. You talk about marriage rates in the 60s compared to the 90s. There are multiple reasons for the decline, and part of it is the racist war on drugs. They made it so that possession of crack held a significantly higher penalty than powder cocaine. It might shock you to know that blacks used crack more while wealthy white people used cocaine...So, the jails became full of black men for selling drugs, or the suspicion of selling drugs, which broke up families and caused a generational shift that nobody saw coming...and those communities are still feeling it today.

Basically, blacks have had the deck stacked against them since about 1870...And obviously chattel slavery before the Civil War wasn't good for them as well...

TLDR - you have a point to the diatribe about the obvious basics? I mean, if this isn't mansplaining, I don't know what is.

 

[John_Jacob]

I posted a link to the stats I used.
You were wrong and should apologize for not taking the care to check.

The link to the news article about the Sheriff? News articles are not stats nor data but I'm intrigued never-the-less. I'm hoping that someone here can prove me wrong with something other than "muh opinion" - these other guys are obviously not up to it.

Am I looking at the wrong post?

Ya, Jews may disagree with your assessment...

Completely false that Black people hate each other more. Out of all groups, they have the highest ingroup bias. This makes sense, gather together to defend each other & all that.

Ingroup bias is perfectly normal and natural. Studies for ingroup bias out of the US (no data for Canada) has shown that the only ingroup hatred that exists is among White Liberals (in the US meaning). The more left-leaning whites hate whites the most.

It's really weird and it's unlikely this self-hatred will end well. Particularly true given the more left leaning someone is, the more likely they'll suffer from mental health issues.

There is no debate.

Did they murder black people, did they terrorize black business and communities, did they burn black churches down, did they have laws and policies that specifically target them?

The whole system was against them. I don't have to tell you anything, you know it happened.

Exactly what I said earlier too. Purposefully stirring shit just to stay relevant.
