The poor guy is not right in the head, and he appears to be suffering greatly. One of his liberal friends should show some compassion and hook him up with Peter Singer, and put him out of his misery.
We act like we have some sort of Manifest Destiny.
We’ve already spent North of seven trillion dollars just since 1965, if my memory serves. I think that is way more than enough.
The “gentleman” who spewed this copious barrage of nonsense looks like he could be Pajama Boy’s father.
Just my opinion.
This kind of mindless, elitist bullscat really gets me P.O.’d.
In the town I grew up in 90% of the kids and families were poor by today’s standards.
In fact, by the standards that prevail today we were below poor.
We were even below Clinton level Dirt Poor.
But we didn’t know it.
When every kid you go to school with and play with, white and black, wears patched jeans, hand-me-downs and $1 sneakers it makes no difference what your skin color is.
Now I have to listen to elitist self loathers tell me that I grew up with White Privilege.
I tell you this - of the kids that I knew who didn’t have a father, almost all of them lost their father in the war.
And all, or almost all, of the black kids I grew up with grew up in a two parent family. If anything, as a group, blacks were just as family oriented and just as religious as whites. We definitely did not have 70% of the black kids in town raised as fatherless waifs by single mothers who had no idea who the real father was.
And one last comment - anyone who called a negro kid “black” or African American would have had a serious fight on his hands. To call someone black was just about as bad as calling them the “N” word.
Fundamentally the so-called back community has brought this current state of affairs on themselves
Mostly for the simple fact of the crime statistics. They commit the majority of crimes, period. We have spent TRILLIONS of dollars to change this, and yet the crime statistics now are worse than in the last 50 years.
The prevailing assumption on the part of most whites is that a black male is a criminal until proven otherwise. Until blacks stop committing the majority of crimes, then the perception is not going to change.
Careful there sir...you are veering uncomfortably close to the truth.
They bow to a higher calling. It's like the American Jew and the fate of Israel, they just don't care. The virus of liberalism and communism are number one priority.
>>We’ve already spent North of seven trillion dollars just since 1965, if my memory serves. I think that is way more than enough.
Oh no. The point of this guy’s story is that it is not only not enough, but the “debt” has grown larger during those 49 years. He says that everything we’ve done is not enough. But the last sentence where he says that the only thing we can do to “fix” this is to stop siding with the capitalists.
In other words, we can only have peace and unity under the Red Banner of Communism.
It will likely take a very vicious and bloody civil war to rectify this type of thinking, or we can all just sit back and let it continue.
I’m leaning towards war or a national divorce.
Brother Asahel was a pretty decent guy. That Joab, however, you gotta watch your back around him.
Doesn’t a certain male demographic that is about 7% of the US population have the privilege of committing almost 50% of its murders?
As with all things liberal, he who gets to define the meaning of the words and memes in a debate gets to control the outcome. I am constantly amazed by the left’s use of race as a proxy for ideology and even then on a selective basis.
So, what exactly is the “white” in “white privilege”? My short answer: it is mainly the cultural vestiges of White Anglo-Saxon Protestant. Since it also includes Jews, and black conservatives, this further refines it to anyone holds conservative Scriptural-based values.
So, this is a proxy war against the God of the Bible and anyone one who adheres to His values. And who is opposed to the God of the Bible? The god of this world and those who willingly and unwilling serve him.
Moreover, God promises in many places to bless people who obey Him. The history of the founding of the US had a large component of people who attempted (imperfectly) to do so. The current crop of liberal elites explicitly reject God and His values. In fact, they loathe the US of the past. Any advantage, benefit, advance in national stature is grounds for finding fault. In short it is an effort to repudiate those Blessings.
To validate my thesis, all one has to do is notice the treatment of the left to anyone who is black. It is assumed they are liberal. Any black who is not liberal is not black. People who are not black but who are liberal can be called “black”.
So we have the following contradistinction:
When Nobel Prize winning poet Tony Morrison can write an October 1988 New Yorker article titled “Clinton as the first black president” was “Blacker than any actual black person who could ever be elected in our children’s lifetime,” then what is “black”? When the NAACP calls the black conservative Kenneth Gladney, “not black enough”, and “not a brother” then what is “black”? When Time magazine’s Jack White calls Supreme Court Justice Thomas, “the scariest of all the hobgoblins”, saying “Washington seems to be filled with white men who make black people uneasy”, than what is “black”? And when Obama, a man whose mother is Caucasian, and whose father was not fully black, can tell us in his autobiography that in his youth he struggled with his racial identity before *deciding* to be black, what is “black”?
When Bill Maher, during a panel discussion on HBO complains that Obama’s policies are “half-assed” “because he’s only half black.” and that “if he was fully black, I’m telling you, he would be a better president.”, and that “there’s a white man in him holding him back”, than what is “black”?
In a January 30, 2012 article in The Hill, Juan Williams wrote that when conservative candidates use the words “Founding Fathers” and the “Constitution”, they are speaking in code. He said that when a candidate suggests that black people should demand jobs instead of food stamps, that he is “ “dog whistling” at certain white audiences”, saying this was “the same rhetorical technique of the segregationist politicians of the past...” This begs the question, if a person reveres the Founding Fathers, what race does Williams presume he is?
Knowing who liberals consider to be “black” helps us to understand who they consider to be “white”. I think the real issue is how red people are in the eyes of the liberal elites, for people who are socialist and secular are clearly opposed to God, at least as to how His values are manifest in a secular manner.
You will notice the total absence in discussion of “white privilege” of the standard set by Dr. Martin Luther King, that people should be judged by the content of their character rather than the color of their skin. This is because when you internalize the values you find in Scripture, you become the enemy of the secular elites who now seek to destroy all vestiges of “white privilege”.
I'm quite sure that the only neurons wasted were yours, from reading this drivel. The author obviously didn't use any neurons while writing it.
What’s as disturbing as this article, are the rabid and twisted comments, following at the link. Yikes! This is what we’re truly up against. Scary.
Very good..
And again.
Celebrating 100 years of Black Privilege!
“There is a class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs-partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs.” ~ Booker T. Washington (1856-1915.) ~ Educator, Author, Civil Rights Leader
They cling to their grievances — it pays!
It’s just a coincidence that the people rioting and burning are also the same people who are the 3rd and 4th generation that the government has been “helping” most ... helping to take black families from having rough parity with whites in terms of illegitimacy and divorce, and turning them into Baby Mommas and Baby Daddies with 75% illegitimate births and over 50% of children in single parent households.
Meanwhile, millions of blacks NOT shoved into the East Side of Democrat run Urban areas (with unionized government schools and federally-funded abortion clinics) are doing pretty much as well as any of us, and “they DID build that” ...
