MLK would be rolling in his grave....


It's the 'media', it's the internet, it's social media, it's frightened people that believe the lies being fed them by people that want to 'capitalize' on the devastation that is likely to come.

Black people are human beings. I have met more white people that are hideous people than blacks or other minorities. It's sick, and sad, how the crap from before I was born is pushed again into the present to enable a political agenda to rise up, and drag the country under the surface YET AGAIN! I remember seeing a 'BLACKS ONLY' sign in North Carolina. I remember the horror. I had friends from many races as a kid. I somehow escaped the programming by living on an incredibly multi racial military base.

Hatred takes so much time. I'm tired of it. I'm sick of it. We don't need to be dragged down to the bottom again...

The 60's are over.......I have black friends that make over $100k, there're many blacks in the entertainment and sports business that make millions... sounds like you're the one who is scared. I don't listen to propaganda.

Hello from Europe!

That said, I'll take China before America any day of the week. Food is superior, girls are prettier, chances of staying alive so much greater…
You'd regret this statement once you ended up in a 're-education' camp because you had the audacity to call out your government or even criticize its handling of provincial level issues.

What's the point in staying alive if you are a slave to a degenerate system? Unable to be free? Viewed as a bloated pig to be sent to the slaughter once your usefulness has expired? Give me your defense of the Communist system. Also, nice play insulting over 330 million people.

On target.

CCP harvesting human organs.....Many in the States are uneducated about the word "freedom" as long as they have the newest gadget.

It's always interesting to see all the collective thinking that is produced out of colleges for the last 30-40 years. Brainwashing following in the steps of Hitler.
I've heard this quote a million times coming from Fox News and New York Post, repeated by its viewers, so it's possibly a hypocritical statement.

They've especially been spreading fake news about my alma mater, UC Berkeley. Lemme tell you, the student body there is the most right-wing I've ever experienced. They mostly don't care about the socialist professors or the surrounding city; people like me just ditched all their humanities classes and ensured zero association with anything outside the university there. They're just there to learn STEM for the most part. A few gender studies majors (universally looked down upon by other students) and random people from Oakland periodically start a riot on campus over a far-right speaker the Berkeley College Republicans (the largest school club) invite, and the news reports it as the UC hindering free speech even though they were the only campus that allowed the speaker.

Yeah, that's why colleges blocked conservative speakers.
Who? Be careful with the headlines, because when they say a speech was "cancelled," that can mean a lot of things, such as a student group un-hosting the speaker for their own reasons.

It's possible some universities are blocking the likes of Milo Yiannopoulos, but idc as long as they're private. And that guy isn't even conservative in any sense of the word.

IMHO Apple should stop throwing millions into building another FoxConn factory in Vietnam or "Just Outside China"... and spend the money to build a factory (maybe even just an assembly plant, like they did with the Mac Pros) that would employ inner-city black people looking for a living wage.

Yes, it would be more expensive labor than the ones in China and Vietnam... but in this case, Apple is making two investments for the price of one.... it would actually be killing two birds with one stone. It would be a dual investment in both manufacturing capacity.... as well as an investment in social justice (which Tim Cook says he intends to invest in anyways).

I say this as a direct AAPL shareholder.

Today we honor Civil Rights Movement leader Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (MLK). We are forever grateful that as he fought racism, and as Jews stood with him to fight for civil rights, MLK was also a Zionist who strongly supported the State of Israel and stood with his Jewish brothers and sisters to fight antisemitism. May his memory be a blessing.

Realllllly. The Israelis would try to put king in prison because he would be marching with the Palestinians in solidarity against oppression, apartheid-like condition, and countless human rights abuses. Nice how the Israelis co opted the memory of king to distract from the fact they are the abusers

“Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.”

My favorite MLK quote, holds true for all that is going on today.

Well, I hate white supremacists, fascists, and Trump-supporting conservatives (including some of my own family members) and have successfully driven them all out of my personal life.

So I guess hate CAN drive out hate. Then again, I'm a Sith Lord. ;)
