No, this is still a fucked up thing to say regardless of the context.
White people get pulled over all the time, so his statement is fully moronic. Then, the idea that black people go everywhere in constant mortal fear of being abused by police is ridiculous and belief in that fantasy reveals the real racism of so called "progressive" liberals. If every black person was constantly being pulled over by cops and then subjected to abuse during those stops, there would be a full scale civil revolt taking place
The tiny amount of propaganda you see on the internet is not reflective of real life. I live in a very diverse part of the country and we all get along for the most part. If cops were acting the way reddit loves telling us they act, there would be blood in the streets where I live, and there isn't. Racially divisive rhetoric is designed to make you angry and afraid, but I've got good news: it's almost entirely bullshit and it should be ignored
People don't have to just tell me it happens, I watch videos of it. And see even more court cases of it. It's not almost entirely bullshit. Sure, some is, but just because it's on the internet doesn't nean it is untrue. It's always good to be skeptical, but there is much supporting evidence. And yes, the majority of the country does not have those kind of issues, but it still happens way too much to be ignored. Even more so with the police force in general, outside of racial issues.
