My understanding is that whataboutism and bosiding was severely frowned upon by you. Have you changed your mind?

I have been an opponent to bosiding. I confess that I am unfamiliar with the particulars of the Somali fraud, but if those Somalis have been charged and convicted of fraud compared to the those mentioned above, then I cannot abide the bosidings.

I tend to think bosiding is perfectly valid when pointing out a hypocrisy. I don't think its valid when trying to justify one group or another's bad acts.

you are missing the point Mehdi is making. It’s not about the fraud. It’s about the racism.

No one condones fraud - except our 2-tiered legal system.

That’s the corruption that deserves our full attention.

Trump my very well be a racist. Racism is very much defined differently from person to person.

That being said, wasn't about 80% or more of the fraud in Minnesota committed by Somalis? Is it really racist to make a fairly obvious observation?

Not to side track this thread, but racist: yes, or no?

That is 100% racist and I already called it out on the February thread.

What is racist is focusing on smaller fraud committed by immigrants who are being properly dealt with by the justice system and pardoning white millionaires who committed and were convicted of massive fraud.

Defending this racism is also racist.

I'm not saying you're wrong about his blatant hypocrisy. I'm saying you're attributing it to racism when it could be for other reasons.

I guess it could be Jewish space lasers.

What’s the non racist position to take on Somali fraud? Ignore it and allow them to fleece taxpayers for 9B+? That appears to be the position of Minnesota officials.
