@gamer00 Has Offered Me 1000 Steem if I Can Post 1000 Stories About Racist Policing in the U.S.

I really wouldn't care if you "could provide me with 3000 actual lynchings by police officers" now even if it was with video evidence, because you already fucked up with the first 1000.

Is that how you do your research and learn about the world? If you disagree with someone on one detail, you refuse to believe any future evidence they may present? That's what we call willful ignorance, folks. Wilful ignorance and cognitive dissonance.

No, I call the bet off when the evidence that is given doesn't match the claims.

You refused to review all evidence. You called the bet before all evidence was even presented.
You are practicing willful ignorance and cognitive dissonance in order to not have to acknowledge the ugliness that is racism in American policing, and to weasel out of paying up on a bet. It's pretty pathetic.

You don't have a case.

Keep telling yourself that. I will keep posting more articles about racist policing in America. I will take comfort in that fact that every set of cases I post makes you look worse.

If you are posting "evidence" of racism, do remember to attach the court documents that prove beyond reasonable doubt that each case is about racism, otherwise your "evidence" will not hold.

Every case that I have posted has names, dates, and locations. Any moron can google search any of these stories and find what they are looking for.
You can keep clinging to the belief that it's impossible to find a measly thousand cases of proven racist misconduct by American police. I will post more than a thousand cases. I will make this a regular feature of my blog until I fucking die. You will continue to ignore, deny, and deflect. The longer it goes on, the worse you look for it. It's unfortunate that you now have an economic incentive to keep the blinders on, but I never really expected to pry your eyes open in the first place. There is a very clever propaganda machine that preys on people that fear and hate their neighbors. It seems that once they convince some poor fool that all their problems are caused by people with no money or power, no amount of evidence to the contrary will convince them otherwise.

Police misconduct, yes, but not white supremacy or racial prejudice. I bet you could find thousands of cases of police misconduct against white people as well but you are intellectually dishonest and you concentrate only on your own racist biases.

I wonder what "propaganda machine" you are talking about. The mass media?

It seems that once they convince some poor fool that all their problems are caused by people with no money or power, no amount of evidence to the contrary will convince them otherwise.

You keep indicating that I'm part of these "brainwashed" people who think all my problems are caused by poor people.

My problems are my problems, If I was poor once it was because of me, not because of "other poor people". How stupid do you think I am? I have never blamed poor people for myself being poor, stupid.

But to think that I should blame rich people for myself being poor would be any better, that my friend is simply stupid.
