Life OMG: 1000 posts here I come... - Page 2

This is an excellent 47 minute long video. It's based off the older brown eyed blue eyed documentary done in the 60's.

Basically it goes to show people how we (black people) feel like we have to "play the game" to get by.

Of course YOU aren't the one's that enslaved us etc, and YOU may not be a racist but this is an excellent way to see how disadvantaged and how many obstacles we have when it comes to succeeding in life.

Here's the vid.

Please watch it with an open mind and maybe see that we kinda have a point to feel that way instead of trying to defend how you're treated as we are.

Ah, okay.

If I can carve out an extra 49 minutes (bathroom break in the middle), I'll watch it.

I'm not watching it. Those people want my credit card to watch stuff on their site. I value race relations but I'm not giving my credit card number out for one of those "we won't charge it as long as you cancel your trial membership" scams.

This is outstanding so far. I'm about 16 minutes in. It's really just getting started.

I didn't have to sign up for anything. The first time I clicked it they tried. But I closed it and tried again and it just started right up.

Phil's stealing his neighbors wireless connection and he has Antivirus 2009 (malware which tricks you into thinking you have a virus so you can purchase their product) on it which redirects all his links.

I've watched 5 minutes and all I can say is that I'm brown and I'm okay with this....

**Mr. Flopnuts** · 02-16-2010, 12:00 AM

That was great. I loved the angle that she took. I was more than a little surprised at just how things broke down between the "groups". People should definitely take the time to watch it.

What pissed me off was the traitor. I wanted to see the results in their entirety as the experiment was intended.

Yeah. It was interesting watching her rationalization to it as well. She was crying for ****'s sake. Why? 2 hours of someone's life, and it's that ****ing dramatic to you? Privileged ****s. Boo hoo.

**Mr. Flopnuts** · 02-16-2010, 12:07 AM

There was almost this attitude of "Why should we have to go through this for one second?"

HELLO?!?!?!?!?!? Try 400 ****ing years.

good video but i bet it barely musters 500. The video is too long for those with the attention span of a gnat.

I got faith in 1000.
Once Mic gets on here and argues with everyone about social inequalities and then the burdened white men argue that they're in the same boat as us as they've personally never done anything to us (while still not getting IT) and they think affirmative Action is reversed racism yada yada yada this'll reach 1k post in no time.

Affirmative Action isn't reverse racism - it's guilty white guy trying to force change upon white America. You can't FORCE anybody to change their minds any more than you can force them to stop smoking. They make the choice. They open their minds.
