I never knew that I was a victim of racism.

Because then you would move on to the next bogus argument. I do not play the Gish Gallop game. When one presents arguments that way one refutation refutes them all since it is not the way that an honest person debates.

Here's an ideal.... Start a thread on each one.Everybody suffers from racism; it’s just that white folks complain less; but that does not mean they aren’t affected. Some examples are…..
*Minorities at Berkley Blocked white students from entering the gate in an effort to advocate for safe spaces from white people. Imagine the outrage had white students done this?
To Protest Racism, UC-Berkeley Students Block White People From Using Campus Entrance
Students at the University of California-Berkeley blocked white students from an entrance gate to advocate for safe spaces for people of color.thefederalist.com
*Business all over the country openly charging white people more than blacks
New Orleans Chef Charges White People $18 More Than Black Customers For The Same Plate
It's viral for good cause.www.bet.com
Restaurant Openly Charging Whites More Than Blacks
"Refusing to pay more comes off as antisocial and people don't want to be judged for that."www.westernjournal.com
This New Orleans Chef Charges White People More Than Black People
Can a single lunch change change the way we think about the gap in racial and wealth disparity in America? Nigerian Chef, Tunde Wey, whose New Orleans pop-up stall has been the talk of the town, seems to think so.www.blackenterprise.com
And when it comes to institutional racism…….
*Suppose you you get your contractor license and wanna go into business? Well if you are black, the National black contractors association has your back. They will provide opportunities to help you get started…… but only if you are black; if you’re white you're on your own.
National Black Contractors Association
The National Black Contractors Association serves as a voice for African Americans in construction, women and other under-represented contractors across America.nationalbca.org

And others. Does it really surprise you that some people will actually see these things as racism against whites?
People will either
-debunk them
-say its bogus
-attack the source
-not participate
-etc...
Then you will know.
Don't pretend to know what I will do. If you disagree with anything I've said, express your disagreement!

That was suggested to him. And some of his sources appear to be valid, some appear to be bogus. But news reports of what actually happened would show what was wrong with those sources.

I already did and made an offer.
And how does that prove nobody will see those things as racist?

Perception is not always reality. In other words "So what?"
Since you're so interested, how 'bout YOU start the thread. I'm responding to this one.

I do not know how he will answer, but I am gong to say: Your claims, your burden of proof."
Accusations of racism are usually about perception; not always reality.
What exactly do you want me to prove, and what type of evidence would you consider to be proof?

So what? Even if true what matters if if someone can support the charges. There is a lot of support for racism against black people. The other way around the support appears to be verry weak.

Not my circus. Your links. You need to follow up with them if you want participation. Or leave it as gishgallop.

Are you now admitting that you had no point?
Try to be a clear rational argument. State what you believe and then support it properly.

I have yet to see Trump give a four hour speech on a balcony so far.
All is not completely lost or dire.
There is lots to support against all races
Just because you say it does not make it so. The idea is to point out the weakness you find.

That is a very strange metric.
