    I am reading what she said and it is not much different than you getting off to black people being butchered by cops or gunfire in their neighborhood. Rin ring mr. kettle. It is the pot calling.

    You have the fucking nerve to criticize a black person for being angry because of racism and admitting it while you want to hang black people from trees and vote for the return of the confederacy so you can say the N word and keep slaves again?

    Let us take some quotes from her and see if they fit OF or rightforge?

    This could be any republican from cheeto pants on backwards to you.

    Look at what is being proclaimed as white greatness. You fucking nechbeards worship a violent psychopath who cannot even put his pants on right, and you want to go back to the good old sexist racist days of lore when you could bring your family to a lynching, teach them how to whip a slave, and have segregation to keep black people down. You whine because you cannot beat your wife and kids and brag about it because of liberal political correctness. You want to take away a woman's right to vote because you think your wife won't vote the way you want. Then there is your gay hipocracy where you will rape your friends in violent sadistic ways, but if two dudes do not want to have the frat stick a paddle up their ass because they love each other, then there is something wrong with their love.

    Dude you are a violent gun loving army toilet scrubber who fantasizes about being a killer of much weaker people in the sandbox. You are telling us this woman has judged you wrong? She has you pegged pretty fucking well.

    Your expectation that brown people should be happy to take shit from you and your fellow neckbeards is pathetic. There is every reason for this person to be angry at living with over 70 million trumpanzees who think black lives are there to abuse, enslave, and murder. You support that. Then you have the nerve to come bitching.

    I think it is a perfectly normal reaction to republicans.

    not to put too fine a point on it, but doesn't the "neck beard" crowd skew young & liberal? You know, skinny pants/man bun/neckbeard/expensive coffee drinking and whatnot?
    I could be wrong, but can somebody clear this up for me?

    You really do not see the hicks around you, do you?

    There, neckbeard white boy snowflake. Could be your son. Could be you. Here we have cooter, or whatever his name is, and he is your rural GA piece of white racist trash. He is not liberal. He loses his shit and shoots up the place because he got a hard on. This is your crazy white christian offspring. They have lots of similarities to crazy muslim kids raised over in what you call the sandbox. There is also a variant for the jews. The things they love are neckbeards and killing liberals.

    This is the first I've heard of Dr. Aruna Khilanani, but on the surface, she's an interesting conundrum: an educated black female who apparently hates liberals.

    She's clearly a racist. People of good conscience should be able to call her out on that without worrying about their 'side.'

    Oh, and here's the audio of her talk in its entirety:
    https://bariweiss.substack.com/p/the-psychopathic-problem-of-the-white

    Select excerpts:


    • This is the cost of talking to white people at all. The cost of your own life, as they suck you dry. There are no good apples out there. White people make my blood boil. (Time stamp: 6:45)
    • I had fantasies of unloading a revolver into the head of any white person that got in my way, burying their body, and wiping my bloody hands as I walked away relatively guiltless with a bounce in my step. Like I did the world a fucking favor. (Time stamp: 7:17)
    • White people are out of their minds and they have been for a long time. (Time stamp: 17:06)
    • We are now in a psychological predicament, because white people feel that we are bullying them when we bring up race. They feel that we should be thanking them for all that they have done for us. They are confused, and so are we. We keep forgetting that directly talking about race is a waste of our breath. We are asking a demented, violent predator who thinks that they are a saint or a superhero, to accept responsibility. It ain’t gonna happen. They have five holes in their brain. It’s like banging your head against a brick wall. It’s just like sort of not a good idea. (Time stamp 17:13)
    • We need to remember that directly talking about race to white people is useless, because they are at the wrong level of conversation. Addressing racism assumes that white people can see and process what we are talking about. They can’t. That’s why they sound demented. They don’t even know they have a mask on. White people think it’s their actual face. We need to get to know the mask. (Time stamp 17:54)

    oldfella math class-

    Here's 100 of these things (splays out a pile of Klan action figures), and one of these things (pulls out one black militant action figure).
    See? They're the same amount!
    And since they're the same amount, they cancel out, and now there's no things.
    *Sweeps all the figures into the trash*
    Now lets erase our memory of this even happening!
    :D

    I have a brother that is just less than 2 years older than I am. Most of my childhood was spent dodging his fists. I spent most of my teen years fantasizing about all the ways I would hurt him back. I way over that now. I came to terms with it while still in my 20s. I’m pretty psychologically healthy, personally, and am very liberal.

    old fella, you have lost your fucking mind if you think this means what I think you think it means.

    And, as a psychiatrist, I’d think she’d be aware falling into Freud’s trap of using his patients as test subjects for defining “psychologically healthy”

    HIM. Not all men. Right?

    She's no different than the conservative woman that gets mugged and becomes racist, blaming every member of the race for the act of the mugging. It is the individual's action, not everyone based on their relative levels of melatonin.

    I’m certain this woman did not endure discrimination from only one person. Most likely 80/20 percent of the white people she had ever had contact with.

    But, even if not 80/20, we all know that the person who speaks loudest is heard. So, even if only 20% of white people were racist to her, those 20% were screaming while the other 80% were ok with, or didn’t want to disrupt the status quo. So … in her mind, sure, all white people.

    The point is, when someone is abused - physically, emotionally, sexually, or even verbally, victims want to fight back. And when that abuse is continuous, the desire for retribution intensifies.

    This has been studied and recognized in mice. It’s way past time human stopped holding other humans to higher standards.

    Yes. And that's what makes her a racist.

    Not a single good white person, according to her.

    I'd probably take that with more understanding if it wasn't coming from someone who attended Michigan, University of Chicago, NYU, Cornell, and Columbia, who is invited to give guest lectures at Yale. Clearly her path to professional accreditation was not impaired by her race or sex. She is the 'elite', and clearly has some level of privilege that most people in the US don't.

    And evidently the abuse she specifically described came from her psychotherapist who was concerned about psychosis, according to her. Who then goes on to talk about feeling justified for killing people based on their skin color, and stating that it would be a good thing, and that all white people are bad.

    When you are saying the same shit as mass murderers like Dylan Roof, you probably should be aware that others might be concerned about your comments.

    I'm not saying she shouldn't have phrased her frustration the way she did. I'm saying this isn't a racist rant. It's a frustration rant. But, ... sure, you don't like the way she says what she says so she's wrong.

    Why isn't explicitly stating all white people are bad not a racist rant?

    Because the frustration is all I hear. You may be right. She could be racist. But, if she is, what do you suppose we do? I mean, oldfella and forbin are racists, but we let them live.

    A white guy who gets mugged and shouts out how blacks are criminals is also a racist.

    I'd say frustration might be appropriate if she publicly apologized, and then my POV would be that she said racist things, but may not be a racist.

    But she hasn't, indeed is calling out Yale for taking down her speech from public consumption.

    What to do? Call her out for being a racist. That's all.

    But we've got a decent amount of folks in this country that won't do that because they believe that her comments are justified.

    Equality is holding people to the same standard. You'd think that would be something that most people could agree on, but that standard is changing. It's now equity - and they of course get to decide where the equity lays.

    I'll always support equality, but I'm becoming cautious of the later camp.

    Yes, equality is what we should all strive for.

    However, as things are today ....

    Let me repeat that, as things are today, with race relations as they are, period, full stop, June 7 2021 c.e., united states, planet Earth, where 80%(+/-) of the population is white and 20% of them actively engage in racist activity - even if that only includes being in a position to add or deny a person a thing and the decision to add or deny that thing is based on race - but the other 80% refuse to say/do anything about it, then the frustration engulfs everyone. Yes. It's not "right", but it's the human thing to do.

    Also, as this person appears to be a public figure, I agree an apology is necessary - unless, she doesn't have any white clients anyway.
