  the press or fake news i.e.

  npr, abc,nbc,cbc, cnn, pmsnbc, all are suspiciously silent.

  as blacks rampage around killing, attacking and looting the press says nothing to see here move on.

  If you view the words of people in this thread and others they create there is a deep disdain for most things black. I am fine with critiquing anyone or anything. However, the vitriol directed at this one group I particular is obvious.

  You said include BLM and ANTIFA hate crimes in with other black hate crimes. First of all a very large portion of BLM AND ALMOST ALL OF ANTIFA are confused white people. So how can you include crimes committed by white people in the numbers of hate crimes committed by blacks.

  More importantly you completely ignored 2 things. Hate crimes committed by white people against everyone have drastically increased, and black people are such a small percentage of population but make up the vast majority of victims of hate crimes.

  Race is a problem, and all races are responsible. Just ask look at the thread about Juneteenth and the ridiculously childish responses to the thread. The responses were completely anti-black. The reason it didn't feel that way is because a small group of people feel safe saying things here they wouldn't in public

  The Evidence of Human Evolution keeps getting stronger and stronger

  despite the wt's and young earth creationists' teachings against human evolution (namely macroevolution from non-humans) being a reality, the evidence of human evolution keeps getting stronger and stronger.. consider for example two science news articles and one other science article, each pertaining to the fossil that is nicknamed "little foot".

  below are links to three science articles, listed in order of the articles from oldest to newest (except i don't see a date for one of the articles).

  Asian hate crimes rose from 49 crimes in 2019 to 122 in 2020, an increase of 149 percent.

  Verbal harassment and shunning — the deliberate avoidance of Asian Americans — made up the two largest proportions of the total incidents reported. Physical assaults comprised 11 percent of the incidents.

  Janelle Wong, a professor of American Studies at the University of Maryland, College Park, released analysis last week that drew on previously published studies on anti-Asian bias. She found official crime statistics and other studies revealed more than three-quarters of offenders of anti-Asian hate crimes and incidents, from both before and during the pandemic, have been white, contrary to many of the images circulating online.

  ††***********************

  So the OP and the media are upset about a handful of incidents, the majority of which are not even physical violence.

  Yet they do not start threads about the one group that has consistently been the most targetted group of hate crimes (African Americans) every single year. Literally over 50 percent of all Americas hate crimes are against black people. But it would appear that some posters feel they deserve it.

  Yes the media has convinced you that Asians are being attacked everywhere constat tly when the majority are nonviolent and the numbers are so low it's ridiculous, but I am willing to bet that these same folks don't care about the thousands of anti lack hate crimes merely because of the disdain for black people

  The vast majority of which are not part of the violent culture that you think they are associated with.

  Black people commit hate crimes at large rate as well, let's not forget that. My family had 3 instances of hate crimes... Real ones committed against them in the southern USA, yet none of my family has reciprocated. Yet white people will laugh it off and say stop living in the past when 2 of them would still be alive today and 1 still is.

  Funny enough those blacks are the group with the most hate times committed against them... 10 fold compared to other groups.

  In fact whites still commit more hate crimes against Asians than blacks.

  To be fair there were only a couple hundred antiasian hate crimes committed in the last two years, so the reporting is blown out of proportion.

  The problem here is that the place is becoming an echo chamber and as long as you say something about the blacks there is a gang of five that will applaud whatever you say

  Virtue signalling, insincere nonsense and you can keep it. What about other slaves from other ethinicities? Exactly! It's all insincere!

  I would think a national holiday for the end of slavery in the U.S.A. would only concern the people they enslaved. It was overwhelming passed by Congress regardless of political affiliation. I think the distaste for a group of people is causing the anger.

  I've known about, been too, and heard of Juneteenth since the 1980s, so maybe it is regional.
