MTV's "White Guy Resolutions 2017" Might Just Earn Trump a Second Term
Reason Magazine's Hit & Run Blog ^ | December 20, 2016 | Nick Gillespie, editor-in-chief

We've gone beyond virtue-signaling to toxic brew of all-you-people-need-to-shut-up-and-listen-to-why-you're-the-problem ranting.

MTV—which famously took years to feature black musicians on its regular programming—has come full circle since its launch in 1981.

It has released a short video titled "2017 Resolutions for White Guys." Among the suggestions, some of which were articulated by white folks who seemed plucked from the junior versions of Prairie Home Companion and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir: "Try to recognize that America was never 'great' for anyone who wasn't a white guy"; "Blue Lives Matter isn't a thing"; "stop bragging about being 'woke'; "feel free to take Kanye West...(you know what you did, Kanye)"; "learn what 'mansplaining' is, then stop doing it"; "just because you have black friends doesn't mean you're not racist"; and more.

Take a look below. It's just over a minute long, though in fairness, it seems longer....

I had to stop the video after about 20 seconds. I was about to throw my phone at the nearest millennial.

I resolve to not be silent in the face of political correctness. Therefore, I proclaim these suggested resolutions to be a case of “blacklash” upon my being. (notice I don’t identify by race)

That was a great "reaction" video that was very accurate.
We also need a non-profanity version so it can be played on One America News, Fox Business, and Fox News.

What a disgusting video!

But it does show that the Dems will have no ability to detach themselves from the SJW monsters they created.

The plan was for Hillary to be president, and the SJWs to be the shock troops for the left like the students in Mao’s China. Now Hillary is out, and they are left with these freaks operating with no state control or guidance, but still associated with their party. An impossible situation!

They will either have to continue to care and feed them, and keep losing, or they will all bolt to some Bernie-inspired 3rd party.

Interesting how its ok to tell white guys what they are doing wrong, how they think, and everything is their fault.

Excellent point, VanDeKoik.
Leftwinger leaders likely had no anticipation of their useful idiots being appended to them forever.

It is like wearing a very heavy cotton sweatsuit on a fishing boat to protect againt sunburn.
And then falling overboard to learn the thing you liked moments ago can now drag you under...
