If a black person protests in the street, they a nuisance, and they deserve to be driven over... If they kneel during the anthem, they're disrespectful, and they deserve to lose their job.

Seems like people support Trump just really, really don't seem to like black people for some reason... They're crazy in support of police, every time a black person gets shot by a cop they try to excuse it, or change the conversation to be about black on black crime...

If you look at the polls, like 70% of them call Black Lives Matter a terrorist organization, which is fucking offensive...

Meanwhile they do nothing to help us or even respect us, and then they try to turn it around on the Democrats party with this tyranny of low expectations bullshit.

Like what can we do? We're trying to speak up for ourselves and our rights, the inequality of wealth and opportunity we face is just nuts. But they don't want to hear about it, its like we're subhuman to them. Why can't they even bring yourself to say our lives matter without imagining there's something racist about it?

Just frustrating man.


Bold parts - their ingroup.
Italic parts - your ingroup.

Now ask the question: Why would their ingroup want to lessen their position and status to improve that of an outgroup?

There is no reason for them to like you - calls for tolerance and togetherness will inevitably fall on deaf ears when there is an ingroup preference - that's human nature. What they have against them is that in some way - they are different, ingroups and outgroups are defined around those differences and anything that lessens the strength of the ingroup is going to be resisted.

This seems like an awfully selfish and transactional take on how society works in a world where the greatest moments of social change have come about from "in groups" showing brotherhood and solidarity with "out groups."
