I just returned from a visit back to the States, and I have some things to say about that, but for now I’ll entertain y’all with a conversation I had with a black American friend here in Dominican Republic. He’s a friendly guy, and fun to hang out with, but he’s swallowed the black-nationalist cool aid; he believes a lot of the propaganda about how black people are oppressed, White-privilege etc. He believes that the ancient Egyptians were black, and that Cleopatra was black.
Today, we were talking about Uber grocery deliveries. I’ll paraphrase what he told us:
I’ve used dozens of Uber grocery shoppers over the years. I have a lot of experience with Mexican, White and black shoppers.
The White shoppers are the smartest, the black shoppers are the dumbest and the laziest. The Mexican shoppers work the hardest, but they’re not too bright.
I told him that had he been White, his observations would make him a “racist.”
