Topic	Why isn't White Supremacy taken more seriously as a threat?
Darmik 06/28/18 11:10:40 PM #38:	FLUFFYGERM posted... It's because people have thrown the term around so much that it has become cheap as a consequence. A lot of things have been called a consequence or sign of white supremacy without having to do anything with white supremacy, usually by whoever peddles this type of SJWism religion: When people try to analyze every aspect of society and find some way that it is evidence of or a symptom of white supremacy or (systemic) racism, you end up devaluing the term and it causes exhaustion in the political sphere to the point where people just stop caring about the subject matter. It's the same with how the terms Nazi and homophobe have been really devalued - where they were biting terms, they're now blanket statements used to apply to anyone randomly. So we cheapen language, and when real examples of Nazism or homophobia come along people are less attuned to hear. Even if this were true how on Earth could this possibly be a justification for it? Imagine if you said this about not taking ISIS seriously because people lump Muslims in with them. --- Kind Regards, Darmik <cite>Darmik posted [p:904161544] in Why isn't ...
