I don't think I've scolded anyone here, and if you feel scolded, I challenge you to reflect on what triggered that feeling.

Second, statistics without context are meaningless. For example, the police kill both black people and white people. If you only look at the numbers, it seems like an equal problem. What is not accounted for is whether the victims were unarmed, what they were doing when they were killed, what counts as a police murder and what doesn't, etc. Innocent, unarmed white people are rarely killed by the police; innocent unarmed black people often are. So I don't accept numbers without context as an argument for or against anything.

Last, I agree with you that racism is a tool of the ruling class. That is what I mean when I say Power Whites. My position is it should be all of us against them—but many white people still see black people/immigrants/you name it as the enemy, not the ruling class, which is what I'm calling attention to.
