1. { This post moot } Not Exactly this... That's a manufactured fake quote.

Swan did not write "wypipo".

Look up the actual quote and do not post fake shit even when your heart is in the right place as it is frequently including this thread.

Counter propaganda works ONLY WHEN it is:

* true and accurate
* clear
* fast

Faking words and stuffing them into people's mouths, especially those making common cause with us, does not work.

3. Source please

If this is inaccurate I am more than happy to correct... I am a monster for truth - please point me to the original. I do not think that is the interesting thing going go here though. Did he say the content that I highlighted? That is what matters in the context of post - which is why I highlighted it!

6. Twitter, from June. I found it in seconds. You will do the same.

[Soph0571]

11. So you know where it is. You have it. But you want to do a control thing about sharing it?

Gotta tell you that that is a wee bit fucked up when you were so quick to call me out on it. Hey ho!

[Bernardo de La Paz]

15. Get off it. It's not about control. It's about due diligence. I did it when you didn't.

Since you need the help, here's the link:

Link to tweet

As I said, he did not write the inflammatory word "wypipo", which steps on his message.

[TwilightZone]

20. Actually, he did.

There are a couple different versions of the quote.

Here's the other:

Link to tweet

You might want to tone down the condescension since the OP appears to be an accurate representation of one version of Swan's quote.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

22. Thanks. Already apologized to OP. . . . nt

[Soph0571]

23. AND...

Link to tweet

I came to you worrying I was posting something that did not pass the smell test- because you states very strongly that it did not. It did, as it turns out but you tried to make me look like a dick in a rather passive aggressive way. Heh.

PS. I a not getting off shit Ever.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

24. It is so easy for the dirty trick side to make fake memes that yes, I was hyper-vigilant,

Perhaps over-vigilant.

I apologize.

In my defense I would say that having found one tweet that differed in a key word, I really did not expect there to be another almost identical one since there so very rarely is.

[Soph0571]

26. Peace my friend

I accept. And in your obvious fact driven character check out the chap on this thread who is a right wing talking point on this topic...

[Bernardo de La Paz]

21. As it turns out he did write a second one. Sorry that I was only 50% correct. . . . nt

[nilram]

10. Point of fact is that he's tweeted it both with and without 'wypipo'

12. Thank you :-) For the clarification.

Most appreciated!

[Bernardo de La Paz]

18. Interesting. Thank you for correcting me. . . . nt

[The King of Prussia]

25. Caught out posting "fake shit"

Tut tut.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

27. A sin of omission is not a sin of commission. Huge difference.

And my omission was not a sin was entirely natural because it is extremely rare for there to be a nearly identical tweet living along with an undeleted tweet (i.e. not a tweet over-riding a deleted tweet).

However the side of dirty tricks has a habit of making fake memes and it is important to do due diligence to avoid getting tricked. The OP was not tricked, it turns out, fortunately.

[TwilightZone]

16. There are a couple different versions of the quote on his Twitter feed.

Bishop Swan does use "wypipo" in this version:

So, the OP appears to be accurate.

[Moral Compass]

2. Can't really argue with this...

Can’t resign from a race, but there are times that I wish that I could.

Some of my people have no shame, no morals, no heart.

Sigh.

[docgee]

4. Load of BS. Most white men would be toast too.

And look how long R Kelly got away with it.

[She_Totally_Gets_It]

5. There are plenty of white men who got away with it and worse...

The reason why R. Kelly got away with it so long is because no one gives a damn about black girls and women. That’s something that we in the black community needs to come to terms with. Society as a whole needs to do better by black girls and women.

[docgee]

8. I would say it has more to do with how rich you are.

But now thinking about it, how many get away with it because they're on the football team or some other shit.

[She_Totally_Gets_It]

14. Let's please not have this race v. class debate. Race is central

... and systemic racism exists. It is absolutely true that white males get away with a fair amount of crimes that black males would never get away with. Same with white women. While I understand that your average celebrity of color has the means to fight back, I’m referring to the vast numbers of average black folk who are trapped in the system regardless of class, who are wrongly accused regardless of class. I have two masters and a doctorate, but that doesn’t stop me from constantly being followed, harassed, or disrespected.

We must come to terms with race and the centrality of race in our country. Nothing will ever change until we do, and start being honest about it.

[Snake Plissken]

29. Actually it's you that needs to come to terms with reality, not everything is 100% about race.

If you think a poor white man will get away with raping someone just because he's white, you need to get a grip on reality. The common denominator with rapists being able to get away with it is wealth and affluence, that is just reality.

[RVN VET71]

35. But it helps to be wealthy, affluent and white.

But we're getting way off point here: does anyone think a black man accused of raping and molesting 20+ women of whatever mix of races would have received the kind of pass -- running for president, yet -- as the orange faced dude in the white house? Also, I'm not sure a white Democrat who was so accused would get the same shake as an orange faced Republican.

But, as an addendum, I doubt very much if a black student caught raping an unconscious girl (regardless her race) would have been given the wrist slapping that the affluenza-suffering swimmer, Brock Turner, did -- 6 months, with a 3 month drop for good (affluent white) behavior.

Also, I doubt if a just barely 18 year old white high school student, convicted of rape for having consensual intercourse with a 15 but almost 16 year old class-mate would have received a sentence of 10 years in prison. Yet Marcus Dixon, a black HS football player, received that sentence and spent 15 months of it behind bars before being released by the Georgia State Superior Court Chief Judge who found the original sentence extreme. I think the original sentence would have been very different had Marcus either a) been a white kid or b)had chosen to hav sex with a black girl. Actually, had Marcus been white, I have a strong feeling the charges would have been either dropped out of hand or severely reduced to a misdemeanor punishable by a fine and an apology -- if any charges were levied against him at all.

[She_Totally_Gets_It]

36. Unless you are black, please don't tell me what I need to do.

Ou don’t live this life. You have no right to dictate to me anything about what it’s like to be a person of color in this society. You have NO right to tell me about race!

[Snake Plissken]

37. You're the one who was dictating to me, I did not respond to your post, you responded to mine

and you're still dictating to me, now you're tell me that only you can discuss race, because everyone else is beneath you, get a grip.

[docgee]

30. I agree with most of that.

Black males are definitely arrested at a higher rate and get stiffer sentences. It's just that rape is a pretty serious crime. It would be like saying white people can get away with murder.

[Snake Plissken]

7. There is no question that racism exists, that is not even debatable, but

It has a lot to do with money and affluence too.

Tell that quote to the women Bill Cosby raped, it took some of those women 50 years to finally get justice.

9. I get what you are saying, but..

Bill Crosby is in prison, hey? Trump is in the WH.

[Snake Plissken]

13. There is no way I'm going to defend Trump, he's a straight up piece of shit

But wealth and affluence play a huge part of it, rich people play be a different set of rules regardless of the skin color, and it's getting worse ... to the point that we now have a criminal like Trump in the White House.

[She_Totally_Gets_It]

17. No! Please stop!

[Soph0571]

28. Stop what?

[live love laugh]

32. Stop everything after "but" because its bullshit. Nt

[Soph0571]

33. Ah! Got it. Thanks

[ancianita]

19. Tell it!
