It was never explicitly stated what group we were discussing.

There is some element of truth in regards to rural communities having disproportionate influence, but it’s far from absolute or total control. If you are trying to say the working class is steering the ship, at any point from preindustrial to today, I would love to hear that explanation in detail.

Ah yes, race=priviledge. How did you go full circle to being a racist?

Can you talk about any contemporary examples? Slavery and Jim Crow, fair. CoIntelPro and drug prohibition are invalid, targeted by ideology, targeted by behaviour. Polgroms - LOL.

‘All of which primarily benefitted whites by design.’ That’s an extraordinary claim, going to need some extraordinary evidence.

There may be more generational wealth accumulated among whites than blacks, but there are several groups above whites in this regard, if whites were in control and these systems operated as you suggested, shouldn’t we expect to see whites at the top of the ladder? What is the solution - to equalise wealth by race? I’d love to see how you would do that without penalising groups, and in doing so, probably start a civil or world war.

Anyway, I kept things civil and you’ve resorted to multiple ad hominem. ‘My kind’ still not sure what my kind is, maybe you could prescribe me. And calling me an idiot several times, and insisting I am being disingenuous.

If you really want to bring statistics of outcomes into this, you can check cross cultural studies of minority outcomes. Or you can just grasp 13% doing 50. Or the per capital black on white rape/murder vs white on black rape/murder. And you can see these cross culturally as well, so your muh racist America doesn’t explain the outcome differences. Oh would citing these statistics make me racist in your opinion?
