"All blacks are.../All Muslims are..." Generalizing social groups is absolutely racist. I'm Jewish (Ashkenazi and Sephardic; Persian). Is that my religion? Am I pro-Israel? Stingy? Rich? Socialist? Have horns? Believe in a brutal, selfish, male deity? Heard this crap all my life.

There's real proof of this. In an ironic twist, Scottsdale has the most police violence toward black men and boys in Arizona in the last decade. Phoenix is 2nd. All Maricopa County, once seat to America's most racist, criminal, indicted for it and Trumpardoned Sheriff Joe Arpaio.

Me too! I was shocked that like three people responded to my post. Thank you for being one of them. This world is filled with cowards sociopath and idiots. I've been an idiot at times but I am no coward and I suffer hyper-sensitivity and empathy towards other human beings. Vent!
Hey preaching to the choir sister I have always felt outside of society due to my own multi-cultural and multi-ethnic background and influences. I posted incessantly about the militarization in the US Southwest of police. Some told me I was overdramatizing the situation. Oh yeah?

Do you know I realized that violence as a loop in human behavior has never been broken on the human stage. Yet we have the capacity to do that and we don't. We can't even get along with ourselves so how the hell do we think we can get along with other people at all? Stupid humans

Yeah I'm pretty tired of state-sponsored terrorism myself. What was that thing about a 2nd Amendment and well-armed militia? I swear sometimes I want to go fucking honey badger on this shit.

Peacefully. But guess what happened? Yeah, if you have to guess, you ain't woke. I cannot stay silent about George Floyd. I will not. It is far, far beyond time for a new Civil Rights targeted mass action from concerned humans worldwide.
#BlackLivesMatter #JusticeForGeorgeFloyd
In downtown Phoenix, hundreds peacefully protesting the death of George Floyd after a white police officer knelt on the black man’s neck until he passed out in Minneapolis.
Floyd was pleading for his life.
People chanting “I can’t breathe.” “No justice, no peace.” #12News
