Stop trying to fix so called white people and focus on fixing the people who are incapable of functioning in a structured society that makes certain demands of its citizens.
āThe gap was closingāand then it wasnāt
Immediately after Emancipation, the white to Black racial wealth gap in the U.S. was nearly 60 to 1. By 1920, it was 10 to 1, and by 1950 it was 7 to 1. Todayāmore than seventy years laterāit remains at 6 to 1.ā
I saw this video the other day, and I think it is a good path forward from where we are. On a side note, I guess āTEDā was not going to release this video. It is somehow controversial (I mean, I get why, but the guy makes a pretty convincing case IMO).
Bruh, you have to just keep on truckinā. Itās the, like, thought that counts, man.
This is exactly it. Like, OK, I recognize racism, ethnocentrism, and nepotism exist, and in the current day in the US, there are conditions that make them worsened.
Now, aside from treating people fairly, what should I do?
Kneel before me and renounce the evils of your people.
Are you a nazi or something?
Focus on you and your family, the same thing we all, including black people, should do.
The problem with the whole anti racism movement is it cares way too much about what white people think.
I think @tlgains covered it pretty well.
Thatās because others can only succeed with the help of white people because white people are superior beingsā¦errā¦that almost sounds like racism. (/s)
Rush used to always talk about this. Everyone gets graded on the results, but leftist on their intentions.
The Vision of the Anointed: Self-Congratulation as a Basis for Social Policy
@asmonius Whereād you go dude? We FINALLY get a badass liberal in here whoās seemingly ready to throw down in the squat rack, on the mats or right here, in the arena of the mind. Then you just exit the discussion?
Iāll ask one more time, just in case there are some other liberal badasses out there who think conservatives like me need to be taken to the mats and shown who is boss, both literally and rhetorically.
What do you think the conservative individuals who you decry ought to be doing with regards to racial activism?
Self hatred is a uniquely huwhyte thing. Its easy to guilt those gullible weaklings into self loathing. No other ethnicity does it⦠and everyone is guilty as a collective of past horrors. So strange. More slaves today than ever before⦠mostly black and arab. Square that.
Only whites have died to end slavery
Its simply a wedge used by powerful people to separate us and fracture us⦠liberal rejects and uninformed black people eat it up.
The Clinton Foundation rendered the violating nations pure as the driven snow.
So theyāre all good now. Hildawg said so. ![]()
Most who opposed slavery werenāt driven by moral reasons but by the desire to protect their way of life. In the North, the focus was on maintaining economic opportunities and social mobility, which could be affected by the presence of slave labor. Especially when expanding to the West.
Very similar to what goes on today for example with Trade unions vs Right to work states/non-union contractors.
The Democrats.
First off, this is wrong. Abolitionists were driven by their moral beliefs. Second, this is an American centric statement as the so called white race is not limited to the United States. When someone refers to white people in this context they are referring to nations governed by whites and consisting of a population that was overwhelmingly white. And we can easily look up the abolitionist movements in places like England and see how they were concerned with the immorality of slavery. It was part of Enlightenment thinking.
The problem with many Americans is that they have this uneducated view that history began in either 1492, 1619 or 1776 and the rest of the world looked like the Middle Ages until the 20th century. Thatās why they are dismissive when the Americans who know their roots talk about the suffering of their people throughout history, a history which predates 1619 by centuries or even millennia. Apparently generational trauma stops when you cross borders.
