Anti-white racism is the mania of the day.

Without White Civilization, this person would be grunting her words, picking lice out of her armpits, and smell worse than a water buffalo.

“The existence of wealthy non-white people is not a counterpoint to the fact that the climate crisis was strongly perpetuated by white, Western European ideas about dominance.”

The epitome of Critical Theory.

Negate the obvious truth out of hand, and at the outset of your argument. And replace it with “your truth”.

When people stand up for the obvious truth at the outset and refuse this switch, the argument will be terminated by the Social Justice Warrior...Especially if there are other people present.

You are correct. Just look at the ocean plastic origins, the locations of heavily contaminated drinking water and other pollution. It’s not from where a majority of the people are white.

Nothing will get better until these jerks stop viewing the world through “whitey is bad” eyes.

If she wants to save the planet, she needs to start by ending her use of electricity.

To finish the job she needs to take her carbon footprint to zero.

Also soon, there will probably be a call, here in America, for the elimination of white people, especially if there is a leader in charge who is considered non-white.

We who are melanin-challenged might have something to say about that.

Well, most religions regarded women as property and such, until an enlightenment occurred several hundred years ago and we all both realized and admitted that different does not mean inferior, at least in all things. Islam, as the primary religion of vengeance is unlikely to ever go for that. As to whiteness causing a crisis. BS, there is not crisis except the suppression of facts and the scientific approach is making a comeback. But, if you are so mental to re-define the enviro impact as: Did a species make changes that benefited it? Well, yes, humanity did. Which race led this change? Whites, with Asians a distant 2nd. By that def, whites have caused most “damage”. Congratulations, you managed to employ a version of logic. Now, go away, snowflake.

I believe at one time in this country, a publication (grist) of this type would be shut down because of its subversive content. I wonder just how many people subscribe/are members to this rag.

It is even easier to understand this person’s perspective by simply substituting the word “Jew” for “white” in every instance where it occurs in the screed. With only minor rewriting, it would be ready for publication in any Nazi newspaper or magazine of the 1930’s.

Not only does it properly identify the author for the self-loathing racist, controlling fascist, and anti-Western communist she is, its mere publication underscores the danger in allowing news media, education, and various levels of government to become dominated by liberal groupthink. It is not just the toxicity of modern liberalism that is the danger but the toxicity of the groupthink producing the desire to conform in order to be accepted into and remain in the group. One has to wonder how many times the draft had to be rewritten to increase the scope and harshness of its anti-white and anti-Western rhetoric.

On this latter point, it might be useful to examine, with necessary caution, the earlier writings of the author to find the inflection point where her commitment to classical liberal ideals like color blind fair treatment for all persons morphed into completely slanted viewpoints presented here.

Islam is NOT a race!

Islam is a political system masquerading as a religion/faith.

Accepting and spreading the myth that disdain for islam is racism also perpetuates many other false accusations and is a form of gaslighting.

You know better!

WHATEVER “sins” We have perpetrated against the environment, TRUST ME: 3RD WORLDERS HAVE DONE 1000 TIMES WORSE!!!! They are NOT more enlightened,more in touch with nature, as so many leftists have claimed, more or less, beginning with Rachel Carson.

WHITEY IS NOT THE VILLAIN!!!!

Calm yerself, FRiend...

Well, I said:

Replace the word white in the above construct with another human skin color or religion and you'll see the inherent racism in the whole concept.

And it is BOTH a political system and a religion. It isn't one OR the other. Frankly, from a religious aspect, I think Allah the Moon god is actually Satan. Due to this, it absolutely has a religious designation--of Evil.

And I'm not perpetuating anything, rather, I'm refuting the original author's accusations against white people because it IS racist.

“Indigenous lives undid much of tribes’ stewardship of vital ecosystems”

There is no stewardship, no living in balance with nature. Nature will kill you; it bounces from extreme to extreme. There will be feast and famine. Floods and drought. Real men seek to control those things.

Build damns, develop irrigation, drain swamps, plant forests.

If you sit back and take an idle hand with nature it will destroy everything you value and created.

Humanity had to claw its way up and out of the dirt and mud, if we did nothing we’d still be there.
