To be fair I'm not far behind you on that one but that doesn't mean it has to be taken seriously, looked at and hopefully improved. There are 44 million black people in the US. Assume the number scales with the number of respondants (which is a terrible assumption to be fair) then over 10 million people in the US think it's not OK to be white. That's a real problem.
It would have been interesting to know what that figure has been over the last few decades. I'll be willing to be its going up at a fair rate, to what end ? A race war?
But yeah, todays shock news will be long forgotten by the weekend.Comment

I thinks it’s worth taking seriously because we tend to follow the US.
One thing the UK doesn't have is the same level of over zealous policing, beating and killing people on a regular basis. That really allows the leftwing media in the US to pump out anti white propaganda on a regular basis.
Plus the black vote is much larger in the US, 14% vs 4% in the UK.Last edited by Fraidycat; 27 February 2023, 21:37.Comment

As for Scott Adams, it's a hell of a way to retire and make a point. Out with a bang.His heart is in the right place - shame we can't say the same about his brain...Comment

No, it doesn't give me cause for concern. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I can't change theirs and wouldn't waste my time trying. Whites don't have the monopoly on bigotry.

I see, so for the same reason you wouldn't be concerned if 26% of whites disagreed with the statement of "It's ok to be black". Or 26% of any group were to disagree with "It's not ok to be Jewish"

Rather like Dilbert, so don't think it should be cancelled.
What Scott Adams said, targetting all blacks, was over the top, hardly the same as objecting to the biased views of some black organisations. However, when people get angry, they do sometimes say things that are more extreme than what they generally think. Don't think anyone should be cancelled forever for a single comment.bloggoth

The survey seems a bit dodgy though, which may be a good thing if actual attiudes to white people are more favourable. Because that survey is pretty damning stuff if it was reflective of race attitudes.Comment
