I'm not sure if it actually happened or completed yet, but yeah. Burger King bought/is buying Tim Horton's, and they were going to make them the owners so they pay taxes in Canada instead. Conservatives hate taxes, you'd think they would be all for that.

I had at least two classes in high school that had debates similar to the one mentioned above where you would get assigned a topic and had to prepare to defend either side of that issue and you don't know which you're going to have until the day of. Sometimes the topics are very much one sided, which is part of the point, you have to try and think of what others would argue that you wouldn't normally because you're clearly on one side of what feels to be an issue that has been settled. This sort of thing isn't some sort of weird thought exercise relegated to the echelons of grad school, it's a pretty normal scholastic exercise any time after 9th grade.

It's also not uncommon for research projects to require you to include a section on the other sides arguments in support of whatever the topic is. A lot of students try to pick topics that are very easy to argue one side of, like slavery, to make the project easier on themselves without considering that it means they'll have to include at least a slide/paragraph on what proponents would say so it gets kind of awkward.

I understand that. I'm saying choosing a morally indefensible topic like slavery is usually reserved for a college law or philosophy class. I don't need your gag or whatever the gently caress like I didn't go to school and engage in the same exercises. You're missing the whole point in order to try to do some lecturing.

And if the white kids in your class were arguing the merits of slavery in school and your teacher didn't clothesline them, well its exactly that poo poo Jane Elliot talks about, how white supremacy is woven into literally everything white people do.

Nobody believes either of that. However, if you can't understand the difference between "Here's some 40 year old rear end in a top hat spouting racist bullshit," and "Here's high school sophomore Susie Q who has spent all of her 15 years of life having her thoughts and opinions spoon fed by her parents," then you're just going to exacerbate the situation.

Most kids in high school are still living in the little bubble world their parents created. Most kids starting college are stepping out of that bubble for the first time. We need to encourage kids to leave that bubble behind, not retreat into it like some safety blanket. Ruining some poor kid's life before they've really had the chance to live and think on their own without their parents to tell them what to think and feel is really counter productive and leads to bullshit like the alt-right and MRAs. You're punishing the child for the sins of their fathers.

This is not a special case only for white people or white children. This is something that applies to everyone. Kids who have bad opinions don't know why they're bad. Kids who have good opinions don't know why they're good. They haven't had that lesson yet. And parents with lovely opinions will never teach that lesson to their kids. That's where we as a society have to step in.

But, I am a teacher who teaches kids who come from a relatively sheltered culture, and try to expose them to the world at large. So perhaps my outlook on things is different than yours.

That luxury is not afforded to black children, so it is, in fact, a luxury and a privilege.

I guess that would make sense to a racists mind that it's easier to shoot everyone than stop shooting black people.

Point is, living in this "bubble" is a white privilege that black children are not afforded. I was exposed to the harsh realities of the world and poo poo black people have and continue to go through at a very young age. I was exposed to white children my age not wanting to play with me because "black people are dangerous".

White people don't like the idea they'd have to apologize for poo poo they, or other white people have done. Because these particular white people are hateful, petty and spiteful they probably fear owning up to racism means the shoe is going to be on the other foot and black people are going to use every opportunity to rub it in their faces.

They don't want to change because they obviously don't want their bubble shattered. Their way of thinking is so simplistic and basic, and having to abandon it means using actual critical thinking and empathy for people that aren't them.
