Yeah I wouldn’t be surprised that one day you search for 3D printing something “bad” (as defined by someone) gets you redirected to advocacy groups against something.

Search for abortion resources, search for 3D printing a firearm, search for pirated movies, search for being anonymous in a protest... all get redirected to the right way to think of things.

The FBI should just go ahead and ask them for the good of the people to redirect all terms they categorize as terroristic in nature to their anti radicalization resources...

That already happens with google and topics such as self harm or racism. Googling "I hate X" is going to turn up multiple results like "History of Discrimination Against X" and no articles that actually express hatred for X.

It makes doing research using the search giant mostly useless.

That's because nobody says "I hate X" because they would, rightfully, be ignored. It's not a useful statement to try and publish and get to the top of Google. I just tried a few dogwhistle phrases and it's not hard to find people legitimately espousing these views.

Also: you can very easily find hate groups and where they hang out on the internet through Google. You'll also, correctly, find adequate warning that these groups are probably not places you want to be.

Weird. Hit Google and try "I hate men." Plenty of hits, from people expressing those views.

Please don't take HN threads further into race flamewar. Nothing good or new ever comes of this on the internet.

Because I am not about to be indoctrinated with relentless self-loathing on the basis of my skin color or sex, but most especially for past actions of other people over whom I had no control.

To blame white men for the crimes of past white men, well, imagine if history worked like that everywhere. You could do the same with just about any particular group -- they've all exterminated or maltreated someone. And yet you have this focus on just the Caucasian ones (even ones with no history of colonialism in their regional past) ... who taught you to fixate on this? And whom does it benefit?

For the same reason other groups complain when sweeping generalizations are made about them.

This one is kind of warranted. What color was Hitler? How many did columbus murder? Napoleon? Mussolini?

How many have police murdered?

How many times did blacks bomb an entire city of wealthy white people in America and get away w/ it? Okay what about the opposite? 0:1.

Until we RIGHT the course, we ARE part of the problem.

Look up the Ruwandan Uprising: what color were they? Barbary Slave Trade: what color were they? Khmer Rouge: what color were they? People massacre one another at the drop of a hat, just learn some history.

You have been taught to only fixate on the crimes of Caucasians and to ignore all others.

Re:Saying “All Lives Matter” to Siri Now Redirects You to Bl... by gremlinsinc on Wednesday June 10, 2020 @01:15AM (#23474183)
I'm pretty sure the Ruwandan Uprising were different tribes of black people, so how does a internal conflict among people of the same race even weigh in to the conversation?

That'd be more like the war w/ North and South Korea...

I'm just fixating on the crimes of police, I could care less about other caucasians, I'm worried about police. Even blacks are more likely to kill blacks if they're wearing the blue uniform because of their indoctrination. The blue brotherhood becomes everything. What happens if a political ideology you don't agree w/ decides they want to be the police so they start getting jobs and become the police, maybe they start doing to white people what cops are doing to black people.

What would you do if whites were treated 100% equal to blacks by police but not in a good way, still they sit on your neck, they just stop caring whether you're black or white. Get pulled over for speeding get out, and have a 50% chance of survival?

Nah, you were talking about Hitler and stuff, now you switched topics because I pointed out a problem with your argument. If I point out crimes of police in other countries where whites are not the majority, you will just switch again.

You've fixated on white people, white men, as being evil. That's your fixation, not the crimes of police.

I will leave you to it.

I'm white. I'm not evil. I wouldn't characterize Bernie Sanders as evil either. Skin color has no bearing on evil. However supporting EVIL members of your skin color and not calling them out, that is evil. If you believe that a cop who knows another cop who has used these tactics, and didn't report them is still a 'good guy' then you're probably higher up on that evil scale. Because you think it's okay. It's not all black/white either, it's a scale obviously. Some people are just blind that this goes on every single day.

I mean it's NOT just happening to blacks now, hell if you just SUPPORT or STAND UP for blacks they treat you like you are one...see that old man in Buffalo w/ his head bashed in by cops.
