This analysis provides a much-needed structural lens, effectively demonstrating that crime disparities are a product of socio-economic conditions rather than inherent racial traits. It successfully elevates the discourse from reactionary anecdotes to evidence-based sociological reality.

Th3Birdman Schools Asmongold On Systemic RacismAdded:
You know what I'm saying?
Drop a like, leave a comment, let me know you in here. We finna have a fun night.
>> [music] >> What it is? Logic's back with another one. Today, we're going to look [music] at the next installment of exposing the grift from the bird man, of course, and this is the third the third time we're going to see what Asmongold is talking about. I'm assuming it's got to do with this tweet he's posted. It's in relation to the Tech Tone Joe Bartelozzi racism topic >> [music] >> where Asmongold again is either willfully or stupidly trying to not understand what [music] DEI is. And you know, bird man's probably going to be very well spoken when it comes to explaining what it is, even though I've done it I don't know how many times on this channel. But before we get into it, man, make sure you leave a like, comment, sub. If not one, then all three. Also, since I'm a small creator, make sure you hit the high button to push my videos in the algorithm. If you want to have conversations beyond the comment section, [music] make sure you join my Discord in the description below. And if you want to see gaming content, make sure you sub to my gaming channel Logic's Lane. Now, let's get to the video. Lord of the Fleas has blessed us with yet another [ __ ] take on Twitter. This time alleging that black people benefit from systematic racism.
We're going to debunk this nonsensical claim.
>> Oh my god.
>> And this time I'll try to be as brief as I can for old double digit IQ here because my last video was too long for him. So, I'll have to re-explain the start/stop buttons for you, Zach, because you were too [ __ ] to respond to my previous video where I cooked your monkey ass for over an hour. You know, the one where your excuse for ducking me was "An hour is too long for me to grift. That's like 12 large Dr. Pepper's." And even I can't rot my teeth out with that much. Isn't it strange how you respond to the video where I barely talk about you at all, where you lied and claimed I called you racist the whole video? That's actually interesting because that first video he made, yes, Asmongold is on the cover, but the video was only because Asmongold broached the topic.
The video did he didn't insult him. He didn't comment him. He didn't even like really try to start a beef. Now, to be fair, like he probably wanted to get the engagement by putting Asmongold on the thumbnail, fair.
But the video did he didn't comment. He just brought up the fact that Asmongold brought it up and then proceeded to explain why he was wrong about the whole Somalis are low IQ people just because. So, That's sad. Wow, mic drops, I know. So, basically, this guy spent his entire video calling me racist.
>> He never called him racist in the video at all. You sure about that?
>> even know why he said that.
>> You sure about that? Cuz he watched it and he didn't do that at all. You sure about that? And I think he said it's just funny that he made another video completely strictly talking about and to Asmongold and he didn't he didn't [ __ ] say anything.
>> [music] >> This is a nice fact check.
>> [music] >> So, if if you're if you're listening and not watching, Birdman is asking Jim and I right in his browser on YouTube under his video. He said, "Does the Birdman specifically call Asmongold a racist in this video?"
In this video, the Birdman does not explicitly label Asmongold a racist, but he does argue that the claim Asmongold made on social media is racist, which is extremely true. He was just saying something that was racist, but that's totally different, especially if you're ignorant to it, than calling him racist.
So, that was a [ __ ] lie. But, the video where I spent the length of a short film ramming my fist up your ass is the one you ran away from. So, since you missed it, red means shut the [ __ ] up, I'm still talking. Green means it's your turn to speak. You seem to have difficulty understanding when someone hasn't finished making a point, so I have to get elementary on your ass. You are low IQ, after all. Anyway, a few days ago Zachariah here posted this tweet in response to Joe Bartolozzi refuting the claim that black people are more likely to commit crimes than white people. Let's have a listen. do not commit [music] more crimes than white people on a personality basis. If you're going to say statistically they do, that is I still think that Azman saw that video off stream and chose to not crit- go after it because he knew that it was a lose-lose situation to follow this red and green [ __ ] He can't He's just going to either violates it and proves Birdman's point or he does it and looks subservient. only because of impoverished areas and the lives that they've been given because of the implications that have been put on them through [music] What is it called? Systemic racism.
They've been given a [ __ ] hand and therefore [music] live in that [ __ ] hand and are more likely to commit crimes if they're impoverished, [music] living in areas where they have to to survive. If you were to take a group of people and put them in an impoverished area, they're likely to commit more crimes because they have not been helped in the way that they need to be. But, if you meet a black guy on the street and you say to his face he's more likely to commit a crime than you, you're [ __ ] racist. Yes, whatever statistical fact you're going to throw is clouded by the idiocy of yourself to not recognize why that fact is in existence. Not because black people are genetically more likely to commit a crime. That's stupid. So, Joe is obviously correct, but his argument can do with a bit of cleaning up, and that's what I'm here for. What Joe is referring to is the correlation of poverty and crime. This is a very well-understood phenomenon that those placed under economic strain, limited opportunities, and weakened social structures often resort to property and violent crime. A large body of criminology and sociology research has found a consistent relationship between poverty, inequality, and crime across many different countries and ethnic groups. Studies from the United States, Indonesia, Latin America, >> And I just it's just funny. If y'all go at I'll probably post a link to it. If you want to see I had a debate with this like millennial I mean a millennial with a Gen Z right-wing guy. This like always in me in my comments and Watts' comments, always arguing with us about like race, the manosphere, red pill stuff, and he's always on the wrong side of everything. And I debated him one time on my channel, and I told him I said, "Why are you denying that poverty and crime is heavily correlated?" He was like, "What? You think poverty causes crime?" And I was like, "Yes." But then I cleaned up. I'm like, "Well, it's heavily correlated." I didn't want to say cause because it poverty does not cause crime. Crime is heavily correlated with poverty. Like and this is just known. Like he's saying. Like the all of the data, all of the research, all of the facts are out there that you can look up that there's a extremely strong correlation with crime and poverty.
I didn't know it was breaking news. And he was like he was indignant. He's just like, "Oh, what are you talking about?
What are you talking?" I'm like, "You don't think that? Like what are you talking about?" And again, all these all these guys basically fall into a race realism argument, and they're too scared to actually bite that bullet. That's all it is.
Europe and cross-national data sets all show that areas with higher poverty, unemployment, and economic deprivation tend to experience higher rates of certain crimes, particularly violent and property crime. A 2021 study published in the NLM found that more unequal societies tend to have higher crime, as well as lower social trust.
Interestingly, the study also found that the more equal the distribution of resources, the higher the trust equilibrium, and that increasing punishment severity is not effective at this goal. And that particular piece of information relates to our pal Pig Pen here, where he has routinely argued for more severe punishment. Looks like the science disagrees with him.
Surprise, surprise.
You can pause and say dumb [ __ ] now. No, seriously, go on. I'm going to make these pauses awkward until you learn to wait your turn, little puppy.
Hey, Asma said he don't want to debate, he wants to do video, he wants to react to what people say on his time. Here you go.
That goes for Berry Man, too. I still don't [ __ ] with the fact that he he knows too much [ __ ] to be not debating.
I will never agree with that.
>> [laughter] >> Anyway, similar findings have appeared in studies examining crime in Mexico, Indonesia, Canada, and across the European Union, like this one here, where it's shown that people who are at risk of poverty report experiencing higher crime in their local area. So, you see, this pattern is global and not >> I was just going to say these is not all African countries or states in America unique to any ethnic group. Poor communities in parts of Eastern Europe and impoverished regions in Asia all experienced elevated crime rates compared to the wealthier populations around them. The same socioeconomic mechanisms observed in poor black American neighborhoods are observed worldwide amongst people of entirely different ethnicities and cultures. Even the white supremacist favorite non-white country, Japan, experiences higher crime rates when poverty and unemployment rates rise, as shown in this study.
Moving slightly west, South Korea is experiencing what they call a silver crime wave, where the rise of poverty in its aging population has seen a commensurate rise in crime. All of this does not mean poverty mechanically causes every individual to commit crime, nor does every poor community become highly violent, but the broader statistical relationship between resource deprivation and crime appears repeatedly across continents and populations. This is why many scholars argue that racial disparities in crime are better understood through the lens of concentrated poverty, inequality, historical segregation, and access to opportunity, rather than race itself.
Mhm.
The reason black people are associated with crime in the United States is because black Americans have historically faced disproportionate levels of concentrated poverty, segregation, underinvestment, and systemic exclusion from economic opportunity, conditions that criminologists and sociologists have repeatedly linked to higher crime rates across every population on Earth, regardless of ethnicity. Once black American slaves were freed, they immediately faced discrimination, a lack of economic opportunities, exclusion from wealth-building institutions, segregated housing, unequal education, targeted policing, and widespread racial violence. Each of those things on their own contribute to poverty, which I have just proven correlates with crime. Black people were subjected to all of them at the same time. The United States created a permanent underclass in the form of black Americans by freeing formerly enslaved people without providing meaningful economic restitution, equal protection under the law, or fair access to housing, education, and employment, while simultaneously enforcing systems that kept many black communities segregated, impoverished, and politically marginalized.
Yeah, on the screen he said, "This is what black fatigue actually means." And that's another word that got stolen or another term that got stolen. Black fatigue was about basically being tired of being done wrong consistently for decades. Like it it wasn't about white people being tired of black criminals.
It was about black people being tired of being oppressed. You know what I'm saying? Yes, we're not in chattel slavery anymore, but we've never gotten reparations for everything that black Americans have been going through even though other ethnicities and races have gotten reparations for being done wrong within this country. So, you know, you you've had this grave injustice that's went on for over hundreds of years.
And it was just like I'm our bad. And it was like, all right, now go live your life free. Like he said, free. You know, meanwhile, civil rights was only 60 years ago. So, go figure. That's that and that's what black fatigue actually is. It's just tired of having to deal with that [ __ ] So, pop quiz, ass on mold. What do you do when you don't have access to decent education, can't get a job, live in a slum, and can barely feed yourself?
Statistically, you turn to crime. It's Get a job.
I can't see him saying anything besides, get a job. Find a book. Go to your local library. You have a cell phone. Like I see him saying stupid [ __ ] like that.
>> Not a black thing. It's a human thing.
So, this is what Joe was trying to communicate that black Americans face conditions that overwhelmingly correlate with higher crime rates and that this is due to systemic racism. All those factors I just named were racist and all of them were systemic. Redlining or the process of systematically denying minority communities access to mortgages, loans, and investment based on their race helped trap many black Americans in impoverished and underdeveloped neighborhoods for generations. That is obviously racist.
That is systemic because it was a government sponsored organization that invented this and it was legal systemic racism >> Not systematic.
>> [laughter] [gasps] >> The main way a family in the United States builds wealth is through real estate. If you own a home, you generally pass that home down to your children and since your children are now not required to use the majority of their income for housing, they're able to save, invest, pursue education, start businesses and accumulate wealth more easily themselves, creating a compounding cycle of generational wealth. If you routinely deny black families the opportunity to own valuable real estate, you rob them of the opportunity to create generational wealth. What is the racial wealth gap and why is everyone talking about it? [music] The racial wealth gap is a measure of wealth inequality between racial groups in the US.
>> [music] >> Here's a prime example. Black families make up 14% of the population but own only 5% of American wealth. While white households make up 65% of the population but control 80% of the wealth. [music] The gap traces back to the 1863 Emancipation Proclamation which led to freedom for almost 4 million black Americans. By 1860, their labor accounted for 60% [music] of US exports, $200 million a year. But black Americans received [music] nothing. No land, no money.
Without any money or land, how could newly freed black Americans create wealth? The second barrier to building wealth, housing discrimination.
One significant driver to the racial wealth gap as I mentioned Ain't no way Azman can sit through this uninterrupted for this long. He just he can't do it.
This I don't see any way he could do it.
Four is going to be home ownership. Home ownership is a significant driver of wealth whereby every year home ownership, home owners gain about $14,000 in in equity. Conversely, if you don't have access to home ownership, you don't have access to that type of equity and that cushion that you could get from having money saved from home ownership.
Housing discrimination allows banks to deny home loans to the black community through a practice called redlining.
Redlining was a government-sponsored [music] practice of denying mortgages and other financial services to segregated black and brown Legal from 1934 to 1968, redlining was legal. That was not long ago. My mama was born in the '50s, bro.
Like, get the [ __ ] out of here.
neighborhoods. [music] It's called redlining because bankers literally drew red lines around undesirable [music] communities. One black household in a middle-class community was enough to make the federal government deny mortgage loans in that area. As a result, black families turned to predatory lenders or were shut out from home ownership completely. We just keep having to fight battles, but a lot of the things that have happened to black folks in America were orchestrated and they were legal.
They were systemic. I mean, it wasn't like [music] it just happened that way.
Right. Uh it was designed to be that way.
And like all forms of systemic racism, the downstream effects are seen in the modern day. And by the way, this is the United States Treasury website literally admitting one of the factors for this gap is due to the United States government. They are admitting their policies stifled black home ownership.
Systemic racism.
Mhm.
Now, back to Zach's dumbass tweet. The first [ __ ] line from this genius is that black people benefit from systemic racism.
>> That's crazy.
>> Now, I know what Zach is trying to say here, that through policies like affirmative action, black people benefit, and that because affirmative action is a governmental policy that is systemic. The problem with this line of logic is that it's not racism. Yes, affirmative action effectively produced outcomes where an equally qualified white man could be disqualified for an equally qualified black man. But this process also held that an equally qualified white woman would be chosen over an equally qualified black man. In fact, white women were the largest beneficiaries of DEI and affirmative action policies. So by definition and by practice, affirmative action wasn't a systemically racist policy because all ethnic groups benefited from that policy. It's weird to even call it racist when you're just trying to do something to balance out. Because like he said, it's the [ __ ] is supposed to be about somebody that's also qualified just getting that opportunity. And what is if they have a problem with that, like if black people have been pushed aside for for decades at this point. And then somebody that's actually qualified and they're black get the job, but you don't. All they're saying is like I should get the job before the black person at all times. Because if they're qualified, what's your gripe?
What's your gripe? You you should if if it's tough I know like I know it never really comes down to pick this white person, pick this black person. Like I don't think realistically that happens often if at all.
>> [snorts] >> But when they when they're picking and there's 17 white men applying and four black people and there's only like eight positions why are y'all upset if three of the black people get the job and then there's some white men that's not going to get it? Like why is that a problem?
Who are you upset at? If somebody has the job that's also qualified, you can't get upset. You just didn't get the job.
And historically, y'all were getting it and you weren't qualified while black people weren't and they were qualified.
So this is this is just fair in my opinion. It ain't racist. And it disproportionately affected gender. So it is a lie that affirmative action was racist. The best you could argue here is that it is somewhat discriminatory towards white men and white men specifically because it literally benefits every single other group and even then that would be a lie as affirmative action includes mandates for hiring veterans and people with disabilities. Both groups white men make up a significant portion. So no, affirmative action and DEI are not a form of systemic racism and no, black people and other minority groups do not enjoy preferential treatment at the expense of white and Asian people. Like are you unaware that Asians are a minority group in the United States, too? Why would you group those two together, Zach? Are you referring to the ridiculous Supreme Court ruling students versus Harvard? Setting that aside for the moment, what other areas are black and Hispanic people benefiting at the expense of Asian people besides the overstated college admissions issue?
Give examples. I'm sure everyone would like to hear them, Zach. And please, be very specific.
>> [music] >> And he can't respond to this. He just can't.
>> [music] >> Back to the Supreme Court issue, we currently have a compromised Supreme Court that is doing its damndest to implement overwhelmingly conservative policies and rulings and these rulings almost always come at the expense of black Americans. Its ruling in students v. Harvard was a joke because the prosecution's claim hinged on the idea that American institutions like Harvard already operate on a level playing field which we know they don't. At Harvard specifically, there are legacy admissions, donor preferences, networking advantages, and wealth inheritance that disproportionately benefit white students.
>> Yeah, see that that that like that's what I'm saying. Like that's if that's if it's if this is the way he laid it out. I haven't I haven't read the case so I don't know exactly how it played out. But if that's the argument, yeah, that's bull.
Because they all they're doing is like now we want to keep up the tradition of you know, being legacies and having you know, having plug or having a plug on the inside. But, that means you're just literally not letting in people because of all this preferential treatment. There's people that can't get in, but they probably can under any other if no under normal circumstances. Somehow, the group suing Harvard ignored all of that to focus on the 18% of the class of 2027 who were black.
18%.
This number decreased to 14% after the Supreme Court's ruling. The Asian cohort went from 37% to 37%. Literally zero change to them, >> [laughter] >> but a 4% drop in black student admission.
Which, if you haven't been paying attention, is the [ __ ] goal. The group that sued Harvard, Students for Fair Admissions, headed by this guy, Edward Blum, who has dedicated his entire career to dismantling progress in racial equality and specifically black representation. Mhm. Bush versus Vera, a Supreme Court case against redistricting in Texas that sought to increase racial minority representation in Congress.
Fisher versus University of Texas, another Supreme Court case regarding affirmative action in a college. Shelby County versus Holder, a Supreme Court case concerning pre-clearance or the right of the federal government to approve of voting law changes of certain states that had a history of racial discrimination.
Asmongold cannot engage with this at all. He just there's no world where he can get engaged with this in a in a real way. I.E. The South. This one was important because it resulted in a landmark decision that allowed historically racially discriminant states in the South to [ __ ] with voter ID laws, removing the most effective protection against racial voter suppression.
Doesn't that sound familiar? Mhm. The legacy of Edward Blum. That's this guy's entire goal, to roll back civil rights protections, especially those that affect or benefit black people. Just like I pointed out in my last video, it's a strange coincidence everything Zach promotes is backed by some white guy whose life goal [laughter] is to [ __ ] on black people. So, this is why Zach said white and Asian Americans in his tweet. Because like most people that promote white supremacist rhetoric, he's weaponizing Asian people against black and Hispanic people in the United States. This is a very common tactic known as the model minority myth. Zach nor Edward Blum give a flying >> That model minority [ __ ] is some [ __ ] cuz it don't matter. It don't matter, especially to people like Asmin.
[ __ ] about Asian people. Asians are just a pawn in their game. A game that when that game is won, will be turned against Asians. And unfortunately, some of them are too [ __ ] stupid to recognize that.
Matt Walsh posted a a mugshot of MLK that says, "The civil rights movement as you know it is a lie. Here's the first 5 minutes of my new special." Jesus Christ.
Oh god. Matt Walsh. Jesus. And Kangmin Lee reposted it and said, "It's refreshing to see more people waking up to the truth. Much of what we know is {quote} black history is curated lies and propaganda designed to rewrite American history. Grant opportunistic black preferential treatment and exploit well-meaning Americans.
What is this What is the implication of this? That black people is You got I don't know what his documentary his special is or whatever. You got MLK in his mugshot.
He's saying that black people curating American history It's almost as if they just don't want black people to be a part of America or its history. Like you want to keep uh uh uh trying to degrade people's names like MLK and stuff along with Charlie Kirk was trying to do that, too. You got people like Kang Min Lee crying about losing his job, but he said [ __ ] like this. Like, why are y'all pretending like like chattel slavery didn't happen? Like MLK didn't change the world? Like like like like redlining and Jim Crow and and and and segregation didn't happen? Why Why do y'all just want to act like it didn't happen? It's because they really do believe that black people are genetically different and all of these factors don't help their narrative, so they want to get rid of it and not have it be a thing. So, they can continue to pretend like black people are just savages. That's what's That's what is going on because why do you want to ignore that part of the history? It's real. It's why uh black even though we're getting better black people are disproportionately impoverished.
If you don't like it, let's try to do something to change the the the the damage and hurt that you've done to the black community. Y'all claim y'all love black people, y'all care about black people, y'all care about Americans, you want everybody to do better. Why don't y'all care about trying to fix the root of the problem? Y'all just want to scream black people are violent in 1350. And that's just not going to keep flying, bro.
>> [singing] [music] >> Black and Asian solidarity. [singing] Nice ending.
>> [singing] [music] [music] >> But yeah, man, a lot of information uh good information in that video. I I bet my bottom dollar that uh Asmongold does not respond to that. If he does, he's going to like try to [music] meme his way through it cuz it's just too literacy intense. It was it's it's too info intense. It's too in-depth for his capabilities especially to do on stream in real time. [music] I If he does, I will cover it. Hopefully it's not too long. Well, the video is only about 13 minutes. So, if he covers it, it shouldn't be that long. But, I'd love to see you respond to this Asmin. I know you're not going to see this video, but if for some reason you do, I'm here. I'm rooting for you. You can do this Asmin. But, if you made it to this point of the video, man, make sure you leave a like, comment, and sub. If not one, then all three. And I'mma catch y'all in the next one. I been minding [music] my business, minding [singing] my bag. I work OT, time and a half. I be with the shits, mind my slang. Give up on quitting, not my plan. Giving blueprints [singing] out like I was Bob the Builder. [music] I tell [ __ ] get to work and they act like that [ __ ] going to kill them.
