They use it as discrimination against us when their peoples were just as or more brutal. Without whites they would not have the technology in first world nations today. You need to get over the past because it is done and gone. It does not excuse you to discriminate against us

Minorities do not live in the past, we are just trying to deal with the problems the past has manifested on us today. Most minorities don't USE discrimination on anyone, we try to get along and mostly we can.
Except there are these people who keep asking questions about why we are still stuck in the past.
As has been said there is a difference between getting over the past and trying to bury it.
Those who do not learn from the past are indeed doomed to repeat it, I for one DON'T want to repeat it.

Since whites own and control nearly everything, it isn't possible for others to discriminate against whites.
Discrimination against people of color is NOT a thing of the past, unfortunately. Whites don't get pulled over for driving while white, for example.
Get a grip.

He DID stay in DC, commencing in 1974, first working as a DC cop, then as speechwriter for President Jimmy Carter. next, Matthews labored on the staffs of Senator Frank Moss of Utah and Senator Edmund Muskie of Maine. In 1981, Matthews grew to become the best aide to Speaker of the homestead Thomas P. “Tip” O’Neill. After that he replaced right into a DC-based columnist, until eventually Hardball debuted in 1996. it is this style of stupid talking factor. rather.

If whites came up with all the technology then I guess all the other races just don't exist.

You are the one living in the past and the past is your state of mind. You are the one giving excuses. Grow up and take some responsibility for your pathetic existence.

Why are you generalizing? How are you going to sit there and say that all minority live in the past just because they have a certain skin tone and ethnic background? I'm Black and I don't live in the past so there goes your little theory sweetheart.

"Without whites?" Do you listen to yourself? All you guys ever did in the past was steal people's land, rape and/or kill their people, and force them to do this or that or else. And you guys still treat minorities like trash today, but you want us to get over it? And when you see a minority who has something enviable you guys start your treachery! Get over yourself. You are NOT the victims!

no one should discriminate against anyone- and most of our tech comes from Asia.
but we can't forget what we've done wrong- know your history or be forced to repeat it

I sincerely wish it were all in the past. Sadly, people in positions of power do sometimes abuse that power in ways that seem inescapably related to race. Maybe someday it will all be in the past.

We do not gain anything by pointing accussing fingers. It is important that we now focus more on what unites us rather than what divides us.
