Huh? Where are you pulling these absurd numbers from? And how about everyone participating in that record breaking stock market? It can't be "record breaking" and "20% worse" at the same time.

Given he used a derogatory term to call these well spoken educated black men, I don't suspect he is focused on their attitude and what they are feeling economically from the disaster Senile Biden has brought on to them and most of America

I see no derogatory terms that have been used in this entire thread. Not a single one.

Every dollar profit from the stock market, or anywhere else for that matter, has 20% less buying power under Biden. You, and everyone else, regardless of income, are now 1/5 poorer in terms of real wealth. This isn’t really that difficult of a concept to grasp.
And to save you a future ass beating, black guys don’t react well being referred to as “boy”.

Lol. Someone actually ran to the RTM button over me saying "boys"?
Wow. I grew up with black people all around me in school and work. We're all "boys" to each other. Whoever hit RTM would know that if they weren't so sheltered. That is insane to me that anybody thought I was being racist there. Unreal.

You should test that theory. Try Cuddy’s in Homewood, their food is amazing. Roll in and say “Hey boy, gimme a half rack dry rub” and see if you’ve got enough teeth left to eat them.

It's not what you say, it's how you say it. Most earthlings understand this. I can see that the way you say it, however, could be construed that way. Thankfully that's not my style.

First you implied these educated black men did not work as hard as you. Then you called them boys - a racist term.

These were clearly MEN. Calling them BOY is using a derogatory racial remark. Here is an article so that perhaps others can become educated
https://www.thoughtco.com/terms-many...racist-2834522
Racist terms - BOY
In most situations, the word "boy" is not a problem. Used to describe a Black man, however, the word is troublesome. That's because historically, White people routinely described Black men as boys to suggest they weren't on equal footing with them. Both during and after enslavement, Black people weren't viewed as full-fledged people but as mentally, physically, and spiritually inferior beings to White people. Calling Black men "boys" was one way to express the racist ideologies of yesteryear.

I didn't grow up in the 1860s, dude. I've NEVER ONCE used, or even thought of, the term "boy" as a racial slur until one of Eccie's finest ran to the RTM button and got me pointed over it. And guess what? I still don't see it as a racist term. That one's on you guys. But at least now I know who does think it's racist, so I'll keep it in mind for future threads. Thanks.
