I note you did not try to answer any of my post. I made enough factual statements that no one has tried to counter. Were the KKK Neo nazi and Proud Boys active at the peak of the BLM protests? When was Antifa last active? Have the women lost any elections since Roe was overturned? Who are the liars, morons and brainwashed who insist on the untrue while not being able to answer reality?

I'll repeat, the problem is people who think white supremacy is normal and good. They have to shut down their minds in order to maintain that belief.

You did not answer my questions either. You said there are too many white supremacists and wouldn’t give a number.

Even you should be able to figure that out. From my perspective, one is too many white supremacists.

From my perspective, you're the one. Any white guy who constantly raps on about racism without actually knowing what the truth is... Is fundamentally a supremacist.

The violent clash which took place Monday off Second Thomas Shoal – about 200km (120 miles) from Palawan and more than 1,000km (621 miles) from China’s southern Hainan island – saw Chinese forces injuring members of the Philippines navy Filipino navy and damaging at least two military boats with machetes, axes and hammers in the disputed South China Sea.
A Filipino sailor lost a thumb in the clash, with Manila also accusing the Chinese coastguard sailors of stealing or damaging their equipment, including guns and inflatable boats.
Territorial disputes
The incident is the latest and most serious in a series of escalating confrontations between Chinese and Philippine ships in recent months as Beijing steps up its claims to nearly all of the strategically located waterway.

The incident led to condemnation and alarm from the United States, the European Union, Japan, Australia and other Western and Asian nations, while China and the Philippines blamed each other for instigating it, heightening concern that the US, which has a mutual defence pact with Manila, may get dragged into the dispute.

The Philippine government said it did not consider Monday’s clash as an “armed attack” that would trigger a provision in the treaty for Washington to come to Manila’s aid. However, it also said it was concerned Chinese forces would launch a similar attempt to dislodge a small Philippine military garrison on Second Thomas Shoal.

The territorial disputes, which involve China, the Philippines, Vietnam, Malaysia, Brunei and Taiwan, have long been seen as a flashpoint that could pit the US against China if high seas confrontations escalate into armed conflict. Washington has repeatedly warned that it is obligated to defend the Philippines, its oldest treaty ally in Asia, if Philippine forces are attacked, including in the South China Sea.

Now that does seem to be an "armed attack". If someone came at me in my yard with an ax and machete, I'd consider it serious. The Philippinos are becoming stronger and standing up for themselves.
Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr has said his country is not in the business of instigating wars but “will not be intimidated” by anyone after a violent clash between the Philippine Navy and the China Coast Guard in the South China Sea.

“In defending the nation, we stay true to our Filipino nature that we would like to settle all these issues peacefully,” Marcos said in a speech during a Sunday visit to the headquarters of the Philippine South China Sea forces on Palawan island.

Marcos awarded medals to 80 sailors who took part in the resupply mission, urging them to “continue to fulfil your duty of defending the nation” even as, he said, the situation has become “dangerous”.

Two Chinese coast guard ships that had been repeatedly intruding into Japanese territorial waters off the Senkaku Islands in the city of Ishigaki, Okinawa Prefecture, since Thursday left the waters shortly after noon on Friday.
During this time, another Chinese coast guard ship also made repeated intrusions into the territorial waters.

China's coastguard said on Monday it took "necessary control measures" against and "drove away" four Japanese fishing vessels and several patrol boats which entered the "territorial waters" of Diaoyu Islands between June 20-24.
The waters around the islands are disputed and claimed by both China and Japan, which calls them the Senkaku Islands. The two sides have faced off in the waters, deploying patrol boats and urging the other to leave the area.
"We urge Japan to immediately cease all illegal activities in the area and ensure similar incidents do not recur," a spokesperson from China's coastguard said in a statement

Reuters seems to be reporting pure Communist Chinese propaganda. Those islands are and have be Japanese just like the islands in conflict near the Philippines. Taiwan has never been a part of Communist China.

The Japanese should station coast guard personnel on the Sekuku islands today along with a fishery and several boats.

Japan and Philippines need to coordinate and start sinking some Chinese vessels as far away from mainland China as possible. India should join in, too.
Make them commit resources on multiple fronts and crush them.

I did a quick check of the Seattle crime rate. Rather than off the charts, the chart is rather flat. You can see the George Floyd bump during the Trump years easily enough. It is the most significant feature in the chart. Still, the line seems to bounce around the same level. There is no big change.

Again, if an piece of data is being offered, could a source be provided?
