That having been said...
To make sure we're all on the same page, Adams' comments were prompted by this poll, Lincoln Post, conducted February 2023.
The question was, do you agree or disagree with this statement?
It's okay to be white.
Among blacks, 53% agreed, 26% disagreed, and 21% were not sure.
Among whites, the numbers were 81% agreed, 7% disagreed, and 13% were not sure.
Here's the video of Adams' comments.
It's an embedded YouTube video which shows Scott Adams talking at a desk, and here's the transcript.
Quote, If nearly half of all blacks are not okay with white people, according to this poll, not according to me, that's a hate group, and I don't want to have anything to do with them.
And I would say, based on the current way things are going, the best advice I would give to white people is to get the hell away from black people.
Just get the fuck away.
Wherever you have to go, just get away.
Because there's no fixing this.
This can't be fixed.
You just have to escape.
That's what I did.
I went to a neighborhood with a very low black population.
Because unfortunately, there's a high correlation between the density, this is according to Don Lemon, here I'm just quoting Don Lemon, who said when he lived in a mostly black neighborhood, there were a bunch of problems he didn't see in white neighborhoods.
So even Don Lemon sees a big difference for your quality of living based on where you live and who's there.
So I think it makes no sense whatsoever as a white citizen of America to try to help black citizens anymore.
