What if she had endorsed 'White Pride' - would that be cool ? By CBM's reasoning, that could hardly be considered disrespectful to, say, non-whites, but merely celebrating 500 years of European/Caucasian dominance in the world at large. Who could object to or be offended by that ?

No one ever impugned anyone for being white & straight, in any serious way.
This distinction will, of course, be utterly lost upon you. Because you are a hateful ignorant twit.

“We recognize we live in a diverse community with differing views on many topics, and we believe discussions of those views and reporting on them should be done in a respectful manner by all..." Obviously, the precise opposite of their statement is true. Diversity inclusive of differing views is not permitted to be discussed. If I were the employee, I would sue for damages and would use the company's own words against it.

Your right, stable. Blacks were enslaved in the past. At one point in time, blacks in Africa captured other blacks and sold them as slaves to Arab and North African Muslims. They did this for well over 500 years -- before the White Man landed on the shores of Africa (black tribal leaders in Africa later sold blacks slaves to Europeans as well). Does that mean that "Arab Pride" is also illegitimate? After all, Arabs enslaved blacks and throw homosexuals off of buildings to their death? Or, have they been redeemed in the eyes of the left for raping, killing, kidnapping, and burning to death Jews? Contrary to your claims, Whites are being impugned and discriminated against today. Why did the Supreme Court just have to stop racial discrimination by Harvard against both White and Asians, simply because of the color of their skin? Why did the racist Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion ("DIE") result in 94% of new jobs in Fortune 500 companies going to non-Whites. It's not just adults -- why are little white kids being taught that they are evil and racist simply because of the immutable pigmentation of their skin? Sorry Stable, but there's nothing wrong with a white man being proud that he's white, an American being proud that they are an American, a Christian being proud that they are Christian, or a heterosexual being proud that they are heterosexual. There's a difference in a White man being proud of who he is, what his ancestors accomplished, or the nation he lives in. Likewise, there's nothing wrong with a black man being proud that he's black. A white man being proud of being white doesn't mean that he's saying a black man is inferior. Likewise, a black man being proud of who he is doesn't mean that he's saying a White man is inferior. The problem is when someone says that a person of a different race is inferior because of the color of the skin. That's wrong, hateful, and racist. ![](https://img.ifunny.co/images/71e7c1aad8701c7237066c58ac26318e44a9ab3e0adb6ae13ce6a8a6bb3948c8_1.jpg)

It is sad but true that slavery as an international export business was pretty much invented and expanded by black men in Africa. It is a fact of history that the majority of black slaves were captured and sold as commodities by other black men. That does not in any way excuse the white traders who transported them, but it does provide the accurate historical context.

How did the blacks get the slaves over to the colonies ? Who paid them ? Who purchased and used the slaves ? Who profited from their labor ? Who made the laws promoting the trade, transport & use of slaves ?

How did the blacks get the slaves over to the colonies ? Who paid them ? Who purchased and used the slaves ? Who profited from their labor ? Who made the laws promoting the trade, transport & use of slaves ? How did the blacks get the slaves over to the colonies? Answer: black men kidnapped black men and then herded them to prearranged trading locations they established (just as they had already been doing for centuries with their export business with Asia). Who paid them? Their slave trade partners - some on the African continent, some in Asia, some in Europe - and much later some in the western hemisphere, as they expanded their export model. Who purchased and used the slaves? Same answer as above. Currently, there are more black people (including, tragically, women and children) enslaved by black people than by any other group. Who profited from their labor? Both those who captured, herded and sold as well as those who purchased. Who made the laws promoting the trade, transport & use of slaves? The creation of the black slavery export business was done by black men who did not write down specific laws. It was a cash business or strictly a barter.

However, all you are doing is sharing your white guilt when you attack and blame my response by saying, "(b)y CBM's reasoning, that could hardly be considered disrespectful to, say, non-whites, but merely celebrating 500 years of European/Caucasian dominance in the world at large. Who could object to or be offended by that ?" I certainly am not justifying slavery, nor do I think that any person on this forum is going to say that "Slavery was good." Starbuck (who you quoted), noted (t)hat does not in any way excuse the white traders who transported them." The sad reality is that slavery has been a part of human society for centuries. Society as a whole recognizes that slavery -- for whatever reason -- is wrong. That's not just American society, but the world. The only place that Slavery still seems to be practiced to any significant extent is in parts of the Muslim world and the Communist Chinese (see Uyghurs).

Yes - do you know why black or gay pride is legitimate while white or gay pride is not ?No, I dont, tell us It is highly instructive that we have Black History Month - but no one has ever found it necessary to demand that it be Black History Pride Month. And Veteran's Day - but no one has ever found it necessary to demand that it be Veteran's Pride Day. And Memorial Day - but no one has ever found it necessary to demand that it be Memorial Pride Day And MLK Day - but no one has ever found it necessary to demand that it be Proud of MLK Day. And Washington's Birthday - but no one has ever found it necessary to demand that it be Proud of Washington Day. And Labor Day - but no one has ever found it necessary to demand that it be Labor Pride Day. And Columbus Day - but no one has ever found it necessary to demand that it be Italian Ancestry Pride Day. And Flag Day - but no one has ever found it necessary to demand that it be Proud of the American Flag Day. And Cinco de Mayo - but no one has ever found it necessary to demand that it be Mexican Ancestry Pride Day. And Saint Patrick's Day - but no one has ever found it necessary to demand that it be Irish Pride Day. Why is that? Because everyone impacted already is proud. They don't need to demand affirmation from others. They possess it themselves. Why is it therefore only the homosexual and lesbian community which demands that the rest of society provide affirmation? Because they lack it within themselves. Reality is, they feel gay shame - not just in June, but every month. And are seeking others to somehow provide that which they lack. Which, of course, can never be. Which explains completely why the demands only grow. What they seek is an impossibility.

In a right and just world, there would be nothing wrong with posting something like that, but unfortunately we don't live in that kind of world. We've allowed the thought police to set the rules on what can and can't be posted and it has basically turned public discourse upside down. That said, I would think that this person would know better than to post that. This environment has been in place for quite some time now and anyone in the public eye that wants to remain employed, or employable, has to tow the line. It's a sad state of affairs but it's the reality we're in now. Do you think its regrettable that publicly disrespecting gay rights (we could dispute, i suppose, on whether advocating 'straight pride', constitutes that disrespect) elicits negative social consequences ? Would it be a 'better' word if you could say any hateful thing you like and everyone would feel or be constrained, somehow, to put up with you ? How is posting "straight pride" disrespectful? Can a person not be proud to be straight? Is being straight and posting it an afront to anyone without a political agenda? I understand the photo is what they are saying that they fired her for. Ok. However, own it and tell your viewers that being straight is an afront to everyone.
