And by McConnell's "sacking" I mean he will no longer be US Senate Majority Leader.
Finally, after 4yrs of avoiding the United States, where racists, bigots and right-wing extremists were lent an unprecedented level of audacity by Donald Trump and a vast majority of the Republican Party, I can now return to the US with less fear and worry over the colour of my skin.
Damn I mean race relations was somewhat bad even during previous administrations, but, for me, being there during Obama years, and most importantly, residing in Hawaii which is statistically and historically the least racist and most black-friendly American State, the hatred of these days wasn't lent as much oxygen back then.
Latest developments, culminating in the BLM and George Floyd gaining more prominence, meant I always preferred to remain in my jungle of a country, at least na for my country I get mouth pass where I'll always be regarded as a second-class citizen.
But today, things have come full-circle and the Democrats are back in charge of both the Presidency and the Senate. This fact isn't a cure for the madness we're witnessing in the US, but, for me sha, I think hope has been reborn.
Abeg make I go renew my passport...

So much shit in such few words. How do you getting thinking like this? All you dafties know how to do is scream "racism, bigotry".
Who burnt down Minneapolis, Portland last summer? Not Trump supporters, Biden Antifa supporters.
The terrible race relations was brought on by the media. More white people are shot & killed by cops every year than blacks, but you only hear it when blacks are killed.
Like you, I'm glad Mitch McConnell will no longer be MJL, I'm glad the GOP lost, I want the Democrats to hold both houses of Congress so that Biden's handlers will be able to achieve all their agenda & I'd love to see CNN spin the next 4 years under Biden.

Hm! Hot temper.
The instance you provided isn't exactly justified. Just think, all the thievery and looting and criminality that followed in the wake of #EndSars... Need I say more?
That's an analogy to think about. But I understand your feelings.

No, there's a difference.
-#EndSars was a legitimate issue, but the #DefundThePolice & #BLM was a lie.
- #BLM protesters attacked people's homes, restaurants, shops.

There's always a difference, ma mehn.
The crux of the matter with BLM is that being black in America is more a liability than blessing in the land of "the free."
And in that case, ain't no difference bruh. Just like criminal elements hijacked the "legitimate issue" of #EndSars, the same exact thing went down with BLM cos - regardless of geography - there'll always be opportunists with a dubious agenda during times like those.

There's no better place to be black in the world than in the USA. Why is it that only black Americans complain of racism but not Nigerians, Ghanaians and Indians in America?
In fact, America would be better off without their native black population.
The difference is, the criminal elements during End SARS were swiftly condemned. But the BLM rioters were praised by the founders of BLM & the media. The riots was a feature not a bug.

There being no better place to be black is arguable, but that's talk for another day.
Meanwhile, dude, what's this about only Black Americans complain?
Well, maybe your experience feeds that thought which, to me, borders on delusional.
I have lived in several US States. I have seen and personally experienced discrimination not just from white folks, but, wait for it, from even Black Americans!
When you walk the street and a white folk takes a detour or crosses over just so they don't share the same air you breathe; when you get on a bus/train/tram and sit on an available space, only for a white folk to get up and prefer to stand for no other reason but your presence; when you try to reason with an unruly American in public and he goes off on you about where the 4uk your green card is; when you simply try to breath and live but someone is always on hand to accuse you of being "fresh off the boat" and thus less worthy of the land of promises, then, and only then, might you wake up to the reality that your assertion hitherto is quite frankly ridiculous.

You want to know why white people cross the street when they see black people coming towards them? They don't want to be attacked as is all too common. Mind you, they don't just cross the street at the sight of any black person, they do so at the sight of a particular type of people. You know, the ones who look like criminals. The same way I cross when I see a group of guys with dreads, tattoos and earrings coming towards me. The same way I cross when I see a group of northerners with shovels and machetes coming towards me.
- Are there racist people in the USA? Yes, of course. But is that the major reason black Americans are poor? No.
And like you said, their discrimination against white people and other immigrants is silly.
Stop crying and whining.

Nah this is pointless. As for me, my peeps in the States, and having an American brother-in-law who's married to my only sister, I have all the ammunition I need to justify my stance. At the end of the day, we're all entitled to our individual world view.
Just like none of my retorts will sway you, I'm unshakeable in my conviction. And that's that.

This is a shallow argument you've put forward, sorry.
You think people love to slave around and work and sweat hard just to survive? No! It's because they must do what they gotta do. They must feed their families and meet their responsibilities.
So also, despite the racism existent not only in America, but all over the developed world, colored people know they still have the best chance of achieving their life ambitions in such places.
To say America isn't racist is as delusional as denying that even in your own country, tribalism isn't existent. Many tribes hate and slaughter each other till tomorrow. We all have that bias. It is just a normal human tendency which intelligent people have come to accept because it will NEVER end.
Even you, you'd be a liar to say you've never had some kind of bias or beef against a certain tribe or people. The same applies with race relations.

jesmond3945:

Honestly? Naah at least not blatantly to my face. But those subtle undertones? Yup, for sure.
But I must give credit to where I chose to live. In Hawaii, for example, the natives have less beef with blacks than with white people who "stole" and colonized their land.
I'd recommend Hawaii any day! That place kinda gives the best impression of how heaven must be
