The poster is referring to a subset of African-Americans that have the highest crime rates of any demographic in the US. To be clear, I am neither agreeing nor disagreeing with the poster.
The poster wants to imply the population is black Americans even though similar ethnic groups in other countries don’t have nearly the same violent crime rates. Either there are structural factors at play or black Americans are somehow a specific distinct population from people of that diaspora around the world. This is where the analytical skepticism of people who insinuate these ideas tends to fall apart.
What’s uncharitable about defaulting to thinking someone implying black people’s culture makes them murderous around the world is being racist? The “given demographic” they were specifying was a race!
Ah. I had guessed as much, but figured that was an awful assumption to apply to someone. Now, looking at their post history, I see they also advocate for the idea that similar groups of people are less intelligent based on their skin color.
I mean…they are a distinct population. The history of racial discrimination in the US has resulted in a very different black population than that of other countries.
