but so far you've been unable to express exactly what that picture is

which is not to say that this bigger picture does not exist... but YOU have failed to communicate it, so ultimately, your post still ends up being a bit of a waste of time.

if i said, "there's racism in America... for example, my cousin was arrested last week by the police just because he's a Black man who happened to be robbing a gas station"

yeah, there probably IS racism in America, but since my example was shit, so is my argument. seen?

besides, i'm not just harping on the Chestnut thing... there's a bunch of different things you've said that make very little sense in the context.
