maybe they counted ppls fb friends.
or they just asked 1000ppl and talk about 75% of these, like they normally do for statistics
Word. Neither of which are really an indication of anything. -
I don't have any asian friends , I don't even know how to attain asian friends,
-
I don't care about the individual the individual is unimportant. when i walk into a room of other races i walk into it with the entire black race with me, the same thing happens when i go to a job interview or am stopped by the police that is the social and psychological reality of how the world works, white people refuse to accept the fact that they
benefit off of the actions of their ancestors and the current generation of whites who keep this racist and anti-black system running. and that's why even speaking to them is really a waste of ? time they just want to separate themselves out from the system because they don't want to deal with it
100% Truth right here.
This is the Catch 22 though. White privilege is what keeps whites from understanding how different life is for minorities. If they took off those blinders for even a second, I honestly think most white people would change a little bit. The problem is they have convinced themselves that they are the ones that see clearly, and frankly no matter what you say and no matter what happens to contradict their world view, you can't convince them they aren't correct. -
not suprised
ppl tend to hang with that have similiar backgrounds
outside of ppl I associate with work/college/neighbors (none of which I would consider 'friends') i dont have any white ppl in my social circle. -
Once again, you albino chimp. I can absolutely carry out a discussion maturely; WITH HUMANS. And peep the ? arrogance.
Who except for you butt hurt losers ever uses the word "militant?" Find a post where I said I was "militant."I understand the social implications but why would you want to be friends with whites anyway?
I fully expect you and Six to have nothing but black owned products in your inventory. From your mattress to the jeans you wear. Is being militant an online gimmick thing or your real nature?
I'LL WAIT.......Exactly...now ? you emotionally distraught ? fly.
You cave monkeys and your pathetically fragile egos. A black man/woman doesn't give a ? about you or your friendship and you immediately go insane start padding your walls (no, not your apartment walls...your vaginal walls you nagging ? .)
? outta here wit your Beyonce ass emotions, "WHY DONT YOU LOVE MEEEEE!? WHEN I MADE MY RACE SO EASY TO LOOOVE?" ass crackas man. Die twice u ? germ.
? outta here with my Beyonce emotions but yet your sashay attitude indicates that you clearly cannot carry out a discussion without reacting like a 5 year old boy who can't express himself when I showed no ill intent in my post. You react with negative energy yet I'm the cave monkey but you respond like a untamed animal?
Look how it demands I speak to it in a certain fashion. I'll speak to you like the subhuman bile you are. You should be happy I took the time to insult you. A black man acknowledged your pitiful existence; This is your finest hour you ? germ, be more appreciative.
There you go again with your "militant" fantasies. Any time these animals see a superior life form that can do without them they get angry and disillusioned.
All day long you talk about black this and black that. I wonder, are you really this militant in your actual life.
You animals start going off into some fantasy world where we really wear tuxedos and bow ties and tap dance on the top of pianos for Now & Laters and watermelons. Where we watch the Andy Griffith Show, tip our top hats and step off the sidewalk when we see cave ? .
YES...I purchased my laptop from Shabazz ElectronicS and my cell phone from Malcolm Jamal Warner X telephone services. Also I dont put knots in my ties cuz real ? don't voluntarily wear nooses.do you buy black only products
That's about as dumb as asking a Klansman: "SINCE A BLACK MAN INVENTED THE TRAFFIC SIGNAL, DO YOU RUN RED LIGHTS ON PURPOSE IN AN ACT OF DEFIANCE?"
U parasites and your ? questions. -

that made no ? sense.
It made perfect sense. If everybody is so against whites, then why haven't they gone the Marcus Garvey route in 2014? Yet, Darc Skies deals with white people, has friendly conversations with white people and buy most of his stuff from white people.
Judging by his posts, you would expect this ? to live on a all black island.
You are ignorant of the goal that was set by the garvey movement, simply going back to africa or economically isolating the black race was not the intention of the movement. nothing is wrong with doing commerce with other races garvey was never so naive to expect blacks not too have some economic ties with outsiders as long as it's for our overall benefit.
and while i cannot condone his past relationship with a white woman especially fat one. i won't condem him for it either, malcolm x ? white ? in his younger days, so what i should disrespect him too? no what's more important is the stance darcskies has now
When I joined the site in 2009, he was saying the same ? . So just because he is saying this ? now doesn't mean that he's not still messing with white chicks. The guy is a fraud, his own friend (Charlie) said so. -
You know what would an interesting study, whether there are party differences in the number of black friends that whites have. I doubt that the differences would be as great as some liberals try to make it seem.

there's been a lot of race related threads since the Ferguson fiasco
Not anymore than usual though
It's just more noticeable lately because the race and religion section is gone so more threads end up in gns and donkey -
Saw an old head do this in DC about a month ago when a white couple walked by. I couldn't believe my eyes.tip our top hats and step off the sidewalk when we see cave ? . -
Im not sad about having white friends and im sure other blacks feel the same.

You shouldn't be. Ain't nothing wrong with having white friends, as long as you understand that they aren't like you and may not think or react the way you need them to when certain situations arise. -

Southeast Asians and Pacific Islanders are all usually cool. They aren't typically on the racist ? that the Chinese and Koreans are. -

I know I said sad because of the thread says "depressing research finds." Like this is something that breaks so many black peoples hearts. -

These studies are always interesting because the headlines usually outweigh the actual studies in most people mind. For example that "study that came out either last year or earlier this year about how "Most white folks feel like they'er the victims of racism now" and made it seem like millions of white folks were polled when in reality only 417 people were polled. These things get manipulated not from a numbers point but from a sensationalized point of using eye catching words and phrases knowing 98% of people won't actually read the study -

This is very true. For polls to have any real statistical worth, they have a sufficiently large sample size and the people being polled have to represent a random sampling. For most polls that are passed off by news sites and such, pretty much neither of those requirements are ever fulfilled.
