His speeches on the Trayvon Martin and Mike Brown cases that only stirred the pot of racial tension, deflecting from critique of Jihad by bringing up the Crusades and Inquisition, and keeping Al Sharpton as a trusted advisor, to name a few. Racial tensions have climbed substantially since he was elected, thanks to him and the media that would follow him off of a bridge.

To be accurate, Trump hates anyone and everyone that he can't take advantage of or profit from immediately. He has no loyalty to anyone. But again, he ran on a campaign of racial stereotypes and saying terrible things about minorities. A vote for him was a vote for that. It's not wrong for minorities to be distrustful and cautious of Trump supporters. Where were the racial stereotypes? All I saw were arguable uses cultural stereotypes of Mexicans and Arabs. How about we take some of your own logic, and say that a vote for Hillary was a vote for misandry and anti-American policies? The truth is that a good chunk of those votes for both candidates were very likely to be reactionary; I know of many people who only voted for Trump to stop Hillary, and vice-versa. To label half the goddam voting base as racist is a pure lie that you yourself don't even believe. Stop dancing around the hard truth that this is a parent indoctrinating their children in racial prejudice. I know you would be outraged at this if the situation was reversed.

Mainly Trump supporters, but also people who don't support Trump yet are the "white moderate" as was mentioned in the topic about MLK: the kind of person who will tell you to your face "oh yeah that sucks that black people have it bad" but won't do anything to help your cause. He makes a pretty clear distinction that there are lots of white people who will not sit idly by when minorities are treated poorly, but he's proceeding with caution until he's sure which type of person he's talking to before becoming "true friends" with them. There is no racial "cause" for them to fight for when the president doesn't hate black people. To teach your son that you should not only greet your peers with racial prejudice, but also refuse friendship with anyone who doesn't fall in line with your "cause" would absolutely be condemned by the left if the parents were white. Seriously, it's the foundation for a cliche Christian country dad in a movie or something, the only difference is the skin color.

But looking at the article, there is clearly no "black supremacy." The whole point of the article is a feeling of sadness that he cannot trust the average Trump supporter to truly care about him and his family. There is no follow-up where the man suggests black people are better, or more suited to lead, or any kind of aggression at all. So please, help me by pointing out the black supremacy angle in the article. Use direct quotes. Why did he say "white people" and not "Trump supporters?"

And then they grow up and continue this cycle of hatred. sigh Openly pushing segregation essentially... while still demanding whites have their backs, when they demand it. "We hate you guys, and tell everyone else to hate you guys, but come on now you better do what we tell you." This is the part that gets me the most. I remember a former Black Panther said on video how frustrated he was about BLM's insistence on having the white man rule their lives by putting in all the work to fix their problems for them. I swear, a lot of these modern leftist ideas are echoes of John C. Calhoun.

OP: *lists reasonable ways to help deal with problem. CTs: no response but deflections and emoji. This is why Trump isn't going to last til 2020 corphish What reasonable ways? Seriously. Look at history. Learn from it. I am looking at history. Both Canada and Australia have gun laws that have resulted in sharp drops in gun violence since their implementation. You might not remember this but back in the 70s when Canada first introduced it's own firearm laws it was pretty gung-ho about firearms as well. In the years since gun violence has dropped significantly in Canada, and since it was introduced in Australia in 1996 gun violence even more significantly dropped. It's not possible to entirely remove gun violence from society, but it is possible to reduce the amount of it by a significant margin. Other countries that are similar to America culturally have done so to good effect already. America can do it too. Hell, even funding research and removing the ban on firearm violence research in America would go a long way in doing so. I mean it's either that, or just keep let it happening, or fix your mental health support system in America, and from what I've seen in the past year's hubub over Obamacare, I don't think that will ever happen Reshiram Actually, America's murder rate overall has decreased considerably more than Australia's since the time that policy was instituted. Gun violence is a different story, but all that proves is what pro-gun advocates have been saying about violence happening regardless of weapon choice. And, believe it or not, it's the truth, most gun violence goes on in urban communities with handguns. Good luck telling the whole country to give up its guns down to the smallest pistol. You can't just "fix mental health support," either. That takes years of research and money.

And how do we know that they wont break the law one day? Because, to paraphrase from The Federalist, a government that tries to stop impossible-to-predict, cosmic eventualities will fail. All you give are what-ifs. You can't deny that a) People will find ways to commit murders and get around the law, b) Law-abiding people can keep them in check, and c) They can't do so without a reliable weapon like a gun.

Maybe the reason why those "whites" are being demonized because it's prejudiced to negatively stereotype an immigrant population of 5+ million people. You're implying that it's coded within white DNA to negatively stereotype non-whites. Maybe this is gonna be shocking to you, but it's probable that he was referring to a specific subset of white people and doesn't seek to paint an entire group of people with a broad brush, unlike the people he's describing. Never mind the fact that you took a giant leap to get to your supposition. Not really, Malcom_McGuffi was the one who lumped in all white people as prejudiced against immigrants. As cliche as this sounds, think of the situation being reversed, with the response to "ethnic people are being demonized" being "well maybe the reason for that is that they're all murderers." Takes the wind out of your sails as well when the open border parties in America and Europe are majorly white. Do you racists even think about what you're saying?

Obviously when the race becomes a minority so will the culture dwindle and instead the majority culture will take hold. --- What about first and second generation immigrants who grew up in this countries? Wouldn't they have a large mix of that countries culture and some parts of their immigrant parents culture? Yes and no. The first and second generation will share the culture of their birth parents and their birth country. More so the second generation because the first tends to be more ethnic due to exposure to their parents culture. Now the issue again comes from mass immigration. When you have a high number of foreigners coming into your country, they will change their surroundings to resemble something foreign before they can fully integrate if they even can. And full integration is impossible when new waves of immigrants keep coming yearly and move into areas that are culturally similar to the one they left behind. However you spin it, it's impossible to take in mass immigration without mass change to the receiving country. So it comes down to, do you like this change and welcome it, or do you not like this change and prefer what's already established. I've never met my birth parents so what is my culture? literally no one cares he was speaking generally

The fact is here that if you're a white person in a white majority country like America (and I assume both are true, but correct me if I'm mistaken) then you won't know what it's like to experience the kind of racism that minorities do. That's a fact as much as it's a fact that you wouldn't know what it's like to have a period, (assuming again) that you are a man. This is not to say that you haven't ever been discriminated against or that you can't talk about racism or whatever. I would suggest the one dealing in facts is me, and the one dealing in feelings is you. None of the above statements should have upset you. What I'd like to ask is, what are retorts like that supposed to do? Is the "you don't know because you aren't black/a woman/gay" argument helping minorities? Not to play the role of "noble white savior" or whatever, but what I have personally seen is that these arguments have hurt more than anything; they've formed an echo chamber in minority communities that shuns any idea against the narrative established by people who only want their votes, money, or petty validation, stagnating politics in this country for the last decades, and decades more to come. The truth is that it's a flashy distraction from real issues when someone says such things. It's a flimsy way of thinking that's been easily exploited by scurrilous politicians, allowing voices like Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson to gain traction. Would anyone ever say that you can't criticize Milo Yiannopolous' claims that a child being molested by a man can be positive for the child, because you aren't gay and can't understand his experience? No, because at the end of the day, these retorts are leftist tactics to shut down opposition without a real discussion. I shudder to think about the "you don't get it because you aren't black" argument being used in favor of slavery. So, to answer you, you're right that what you said is factual, but, what's the point in saying it?

But, I agree that he would do anything to keep his support intact, just like any other sneaky politician. I think there's blame to be shared for this trend: the actual advocates and enablers of the alt-right and Neonazism like Milo Yiannopolous, and the leftist opposition to it, that through censorship, safe spaces, and overuse of terms like "Nazi" and "racist" to the point of their meaning being lost, has given it all the room in the world to grow in today's youth. The only way to stop it is to start to be honest, and start to elect honest people. Strange then that he's been completely lukewarm on episodes of mass shootings when the killer is a white male versus when the killer is not, because mass shootings by homegrown white men is currently killing a lot more people than Islamic terror attacks on home soil. I think if we're going to be honest, he'll do anything to hold onto the people that support him politically, as well as having biases of his own. I don't know if what you're asking is going to work. I think we could also say that for us white people who've never had racism really enter into our everyday life outside of the occasional insult or small concession of privilege, it's all too easy to say what we think racism is and isn't, so long as it doesn't actually require any shift in perspective or behaviour.

If those White supremacists had their way, it absolutely would be taken to the extreme. Especially with their talk of "Islamic holocaust" in the Polish march. I wasn't talking about them. Like I said, I don't know of any respected conservative figures in the west that condone or advocate this kind of behavior; I can't say the same about Poland because I don't know much about Polish politics. This march fiasco could just blow over in due time, for all I know. pinky0926 posted... Cherrys2000 posted... Let me guess, you buy into all those "Trump is literally Hitler" headlines, too. Every idea can be taken to an extreme. It's idiotic to think that they all will. No, but I think Trump has done a piss poor job of denouncing white nationalism and nazism and it's a deliberate strategic move on his part. I think he's happy to use these idiots because they bolster his base, so long as he doesn't have to welcome them publically. See: Trump on Islamic terror attacks vs Trump on white nationalist terror attacks. He perceives radical Islam as a bigger threat than Neonazis because they're killing more people. But, I agree that he would do anything to keep his support intact, just like any other sneaky politician. I think there's blame to be shared for this trend: the actual advocates and enablers of the alt-right and Neonazism like Milo Yiannopolous, and the leftist opposition to it, that through censorship, safe spaces, and overuse of terms like "Nazi" and "racist" to the point of their meaning being lost, has given it all the room in the world to grow in today's youth. The only way to stop it is to start to be honest, and start to elect honest people.

I don't understand how you can look at 1930's Germany and think "yeah, let's do that again." it's amazing how "please leave my culture alone" turns into "gas the jews" when a multiculturalist hears it.

Topic	The global rise of White nationalism/supremacist movements is disturbing
Cherrys2000 11/12/17 11:24:23 AM #22	Just to be clear, multicultural =/= multiethnic. At large, the first one is what American and British conservatives are really fighting against, the ideas the left has attempted to indoctrinate in us for generations that all sets of values are equal, and anyone who attacks an ethnic person's values is attacking their skin color. If you want to see the extreme conclusion of multiculturalism, look at Sweden and Germany. The actual racist movements like the alt-right and the recent marches in Poland are just reactionary to these ideas, and a false reaction at that, since like the modern left, the alt-right loves to speak in racist terms and treat attacks on values as attacks on race. I don't know of any well-respected conservative figures in the west besides Milo Yiannopolous who have sided with these movements, further proving that they're nothing but contrarianism without a tangible agenda behind them.

And these White supremacists aren't psychos for calling for genocide of people who don't look like them, or believing that this is all part of a Jewish conspiracy to destroy their country? All the facts are there, those who are ignorant choose to be. So just to be clear, you agree with them that it's all because of the Jews?

Not surprising that The Admiral would denounce this old veteran at the drop of a hat. While it's true that Henry Walker still needs to use a mobility walker two years after the accident, Walmart stands to lose millions (with an 'm'!) of dollars. I can't imagine a worse fate than paying 0.054% of your annual net income towards some guy you made crippled. Okay, this is an odd post since he clearly wasn't upset over the fact that Walmart lost money, but the fact that a man was given money because he hurt himself. I'm not even saying the old guy shouldn't have gotten a settlement, but it's strange how your manage to not only construe this as being entirely Walmart's fault, when there was plenty of room for the man to choose not to climb up the obviously unsafe pallet, but also start pulling these irrelevant statistics like we're suddenly debating taxes. And just what does his being a veteran have to do with anything?

As someone who hates multiculturalism, this is the kind of imagery, of different people uniting over common ground, that I want to see over the typical propaganda of all cultures being "separate but equal." I'd rather have Muslims starring in Christmas commercials than crashing trucks into Christmas stores.

Cherrys2000 11/10/17 5:15:54 PM #45	It shouldn't be taught as fact, but it should be addressed and discussed. It's a popular hypothesis with merit, just as the big bang theory is a popular hypothesis with merit.

Uh, does this guy realize he shared a graphic that made my point? No, because you never had a point to begin with, as college education is not indicative of sociopolitical intelligence. I'd bet a hundred bucks a healthy heaping of those college-educated Hillary voters have a worthless art or somesuch degree. Yet, even entertaining your standard, you're still wrong, since college-educated people still voted for Trump Why are you equating education with intellect? Did I? Nope. I stated a fact, which you so kindly, and accidentally, backed me up on. Lol Conservative fail #743488443278. Give it up, you looked a fool Oh, so let's say you weren't connecting education to intellect, because you so clearly weren't equating them. Your claim, right or wrong, was nothing. Meaningless, in your own words. In other words, you never had a point to begin with. Am I right to make that assertation? Or do you have something to say? Lol, you are funny when you look a fool. Show some dignity, man. You fucked up and accidentally proved the opposite point you were trying to make, it happens with Trumpettes. Move on Well, if you have nothing to say, your points are null. Your sort never fails to fight the most worthless battles. And jump to conclusions as well, because I never would have voted Trump.
