and there was no thumby thing back then
Every once in a while I will do some research on topics that I think are prudent or interesting. It’s nice to form my own opinion rather than some fuckwad blowhard telling me what I should think.
And good moments don't outweigh when something horribly racist or xenophobic does occur. It isn't like a balancing scale where we say "Well, we can't pay attention to racism and xenophobia because we saw some instances of it not occurring too."
Sounds like the crowd at SLC was focused on the right things. That's great to hear. Hopefully we see more and more of that sort of thing in all areas of society. I don't think that the MX/SX crowd is any more likely to express racist or xenophobic views than most other sports, though, so perhaps I am being overly optimistic. I really wouldn't have been expecting the crowd to boo those guys so the fact that they didn't doesn't really strike me as news...........

I’m going on about three years now. Best decision I ever made...
Cut the cord from cable then just stopped watching regular tv altogether. Just Netflix or Disney for a move or show once and a while.
I cheered for Marvin because no matter how many times he gets knocked down he always comes back smiling.He has had his share of setbacks, but not enough to knock the smile off his face.
I cheered for Jo because of the sacrifices he was willing to make to race in the states.I also admire his ability to quietly improve his skills.
African American ,French or Japanese, they are just as exactly like me, they are MOTO-HEADS!!!!

There is literally no other way to explain how the police as a whole are being “branded” as an extension of institutional racism.
This is patently false and is in fact a straight up lie.
A discussion cannot even be had when one side believes police are hunting blacks to kill.
It’s a lie perpetuated and spread by the media.
To your point that things get highlighted when they “Shouldn’t be” ....gets reported and spread as “that’s how it is”.
It’s false reporting. Because you have a few bad cops it gets extrapolated that police are bad. Police need reform. Police departments need to be defunded.
Sorry. The news media and politicians are absolute garbage in the country.
An entire stadium of mostly white people cheering on Malcolm. Not because of the color of his skin but because of the content of his character.
That is how America as a whole is. It’s a complete lie to say otherwise and we just saw a stadium of people showcase what America is all about.
I won’t pretend to be ignorant to hate. Yes. There are hateful racist people in all walks of life. That’s not changing. People can be hateful.
But America is not a racist nation. Americans are not racist.
And police are not bad.
I do not care how many times the media tries to tell me otherwise.
Okay..
It’s not a coincidence everyone knows the names of the last 5 black people shot by the police but not one name of a white guy even though twice the amount of whites are shot by police every year.
We are being played and told a story to support a narrative that doesn’t exist in the real world. It’s done for clicks and ad revenue. It’s getting to be down right evil what’s happening in newsrooms across the world.
I think you are stating that prejudice is pervasive in all ethnic and social groups regardless of race, color or creed. Is that close?

Happy for Jo and Malcom, but Utah is still racist as fuck, the south is still racist as fuck, and half the people that post here are likely racist redneck idiots.
Sorry, definitely still an issue.
The genuine crowd reaction isn’t a litmus test but your narrow view of Utah, the South, and all of Vital is. Got it.
This country is the biggest racist piece of shit I've ever been to. I've been to 23 countries at this point in my life and we are hands down the most ignorant, backwards, redneck shit hole I've ever seen. And that's compared to Cambodia, Vietnam, Thailand, MEXICO...America is racist.
And the fact that you think 20,000 people cheering for a black athlete negates that speaks volumes in and of itself and about you.
Nice try.
I've spent so much time in Logan and Salt Lake for aerospace conferences...that place is racist as all fuck. Get out of here.
Texas? Racist
Alabama? Racist as fuck
Georgia? Racist
Dude, I'm not just spewing shit...I've been to all these places and heard the word nigger get uttered like it's the word fuck or shit...they just throw it around. I'm white and got called a nigger lover for listening to rap at a conference in Alabama.
You must be out of your fucking mind. Point blank.
Anyways, the guys who got cheered are very likable people and it was well deserved. The world isn’t as bad is it seems. Bad news sells though unfortunately.
Interesting.
Look, I'd love to believe that this country isn't a racist shit hole...but it is.
I'm from Montana, place is racist as hell. Beautiful, but super racist. My family lives in Utah, Texas, Oregon, and Montana, and quite frankly, all of those places are super racist save Oregon.
I'm not trying to blow up your thread, sorry for being aggressive, but it pisses me off to no end when people are like "These guys were nice to that black fella, see, there's no racism".
