Liberals, especially Obama, want white to be subservient beasts to progressives and blacks. Obama is motivated by a visceral contempt for all things white and American.

"College educated whites are more likely to feel guilty for being white and successful"

They need to have that malignant liberal implant removed before it kills them.

All Jews everywhere know the rest of the world would be so happy to wipe us from the face of the earth.

History makes us paranoid because history has a tendency to repeat itself.

We absolutely should deport all illegals and permanently bar them for ever re-entering the USA, and eliminate our policy of soil citizenship.

Most of the legalized citizens should at least be reviewed, and they should be productive and positive contributors. If they are parasites, they should have their citizenship revoked and be deported.

If they wrote this crap about anybody but whites, they’d be labeled racist.

You’re right; they don’t want whites to disappear (which is happening anyway) - they want them to provide for every need of “preferred minorities”.

It isn’t happening; most whites are quite content to simply leave this world without bestowing another generation of “makers” for the “takers” that are inheriting the Earth.

This just shows how much influence college has on kids.

The BOTTOM LINE is that parents who don’t install values in their kids will have those values installed for them. The kids with one exception (me) will NEVER figure this stuff out on their own, there will always be people guiding them to their answer.

So WAKE UP PARENTS - stop being non-judgmental, and do what Dennis Prager says that all conservatives need to do: PREACH WHAT YOU PRACTICE. If you’re a straight couple, make sure your kids know why that lifestyle is vastly better than alternatives...give the kids some ammo when they have to fight in a hostile world.

54 percent of college-educated whites think that America’s culture and way of life have improved since the 1950s.
And the same group think college should be free more immigration is like adding another ole on the Titanic.

The left is like a parasite killing it’s host, what will they do when the middle class is gone? What happens when we can’t pay the bill?

Working class whites pay the bill and get kicked in the teeth by racist globalists.

Jews and their supporters should never be divided nor let down their guard. Getting that way for Christians now that the globalist elite have gotten in bed with Islam, too.

“By a margin of 52 to 35 percent, college-educated whites affirm that today’s immigrants strengthen our country through their talent and hard work. Conversely, 61 percent of white working-class voters say that immigrants weaken us by taking jobs, housing, and health care. Seventy-one percent of working-class whites think that immigrants mostly hurt the economy by driving down wages, a belief endorsed by only 44 percent of college-educated whites.”

This is entirely due to the types of interactions the two groups are likely to have with undifferentiated “immigrants”. To the white, college educated person, an “immigrant” is the Chinese circuit designer the cubical over, or the Indian cardiologist taking care of your dad. Even illegal immigrants are likely to be the invisible people who, for a small amount of money, clean your office or your house when you are not around. To the white, working class person, “immigrants” are the guys on the all-Spanish speaking job site that turned your down for work. Or they are the people jamming up your kids’ school with English learners, or changing the face of the small town where you grew up.

I think the plan is to bring in a lot of clever Chinese people to keep the light on when we are gone.
