White is the New Black
Original Material | 8/27/2017 | By Laz A. Mataz

White is the New Black

There was a shameful period in post-Civil-War America -- that war undertaken to rid us of a heinous national moral outrage, slavery -- in which the freed slaves were treated incredibly poorly. Denied opportunities, facing racism throughout the land, these African-Americans suffered indignity after indignity. They were denied access to good schools, or, sometimes, any education at all. They were passed over for all but the most menial jobs. The legal system was especially harsh to them. Welfare and other forms of government aid were shoved at them, in the effort to buy their votes and keep the largest percentage of them dependent and unmotivated to achieve. They were not permitted access to public facilities.

This began to be remedied in the 1960s, most notably with the Civil Rights act of 1964. As time passed, racism was more and more discouraged. Groups like the Ku Klux Klan began to diminish in influence and importance. Those who were trained by their parents to be racists since birth began to pass on. Things began to brighten for people of color. More and more opportunities became available. More and more wealth began to be accumulated by those who were motivated to pursue it.

But now, we find ourselves in a time when the very victims of this degrading and unacceptable racial treatment seem to be embracing racism directed at Caucasians. The American left has continuously pushed the idea -- in both government and institutions of learning -- that the very act of BEING white is a sinful thing, and something which must be punished.

I ask you: Does this not fit the very definition of racism? A white person is judged to be of negative character and worthy of poor treatment, because of their race?

Witness the many acts of the American left that is intended to chastise and punish whites for the color of their skin:

  1. The controversial concept of White Privilege has been raised repeatedly, which ignores the many millions of Caucasians who struggle with the realities of poverty, poor education, criminal backgrounds and poor health.
  2. The act of baselessly calling a person a racist is an aggressive and belligerent act. The entire Caucasian race has been called 'racist' by the University of Cambridge, and such sentiments routinely appear in print in such publications as the New York Times.
  3. Calls for outright genocide of white people are beginning to appear, in a manner reminiscent of pre-Nazi Germany, when such calls were directed at Jewish people. Such a call emerged from California State University at Los Angeles recently, and such calls are even occurring internationally in such nations as Zimbabwe. Even England's Guardian newspaper embraces the call for white genocide..
  4. Even the act of choosing one's President has been deemed 'racist' by CNN... who conveniently ignores the many people of color who have voted for Donald Trump.
  5. Recently, the ACLU removed a picture of a white infant in front of an American flag when some supporters decried the picture as a 'promotion of Nazis'. Just like the fact that a baseless claim of racism is an act of aggression, so, too, is the baseless accusation of being a Nazi... and according to the supporters of the ACLU who objected to this picture, being white causes Auto-Nazism.
  6. 'White shaming' is new rage on college campuses, examples of which can be found in courses by universities as diverse as Stanford College (where the course curriculum explores "the perils and possibilities of different political practices, including abolishing whiteness") and the University of Iowa.
The racial hatred I feel directed at me is unworthy of who we are as a nation. Inevitably, this hatred will come out in acts of violence against Caucasians, oppression of Caucasions, and even genocide against Caucastion. At times, with all the hatred expressed to me for the very act of being white, I feel a little like I am in 1935 Germany and my last name is Rosenstein.

I shall close by paraphrasing the immortal words of the Civil Rights leader Martin Luther King:

"I have a dream that all Americans -- even white ones -- will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character."

Yeah, some blacks won’t feel good about themselves until they rise to the level of overseer and/or own white slaves.

Ah, but just like the bonsai plant judge who does not like the bonsai -- and instead complements the container -- this editorial gets no such thought.

LOL no worries, I can't get everyone to like everything. :) :) :)

Slavery, oppression, discrimination based on any born characteristic -- race or gender, for example -- is wrong.

No matter what, no matter who.

“Black Inferiority” and “White Privilege” are equally racist

I feel a little like I am in 1935 Germany and my last name is Rosenstein.

When I was a kid, I used to wonder why the Jews didn't see what was coming and escape or fight back. Why did they stand for it when they were forced to wear those yellow stars, for instance?

Now I see the same thing happening to whites. I hear whites saying things like, "Oh, they want to kill us off, do they? Well, they'll sure be sorry when we're gone! Who'll pay for their welfare then?" Is that all we can say? "They'll be sorry when we're gone"? Hello? We'll be GONE! You, or your children or possibly grandchildren, will be slaughtered or thrown into concentration camps!

Yeah, look what happened to those "white supremacists" who protested the Robert E. Lee statue coming down. Thugs were bused in, armed with bats, bear spray, balloons full of urine, etc., and the police stood down, letting the "supremacists" be attacked. And who is the President pressured to condemn in all this? The "white supremacists" only! Yeah, that's what will happen to us if we fight back. There'll be Antifa, BLM, etc. attacking us, and afterwards the media will blame only US. But what if more of us were willing to fight? What if we stopped apologizing and cowering? We've been doing that for decades and what do we get for it? We're still called evil racists. To HELL with them! Let's speak our minds. Let's stand up for our own interests. What do we have to lose? Are we going to give away everything we've built because we're afraid of being called a name?

I oppose racism no matter who the originator, and no matter what racial group it is directed at.

I think most whites are very aware of what is happening, and reacting as they see fit. Many just pull back and go about their business, but they know that assimilation has failed, many blacks are taught from a young age that whites are their enemies, and they want to be as far from them as possible. The same media that portrays goofy commercials with mixed-race parties, dinners and such also inflames tensions so those things (which were becoming more common) are now quite rare.

Meanwhile, our percentage of the population goes down and down, and the anti-white racism goes up and up. A bad combination. What will life be like for our descendants when they’re, say, six percent of the population? A living hell.

I have a differing experience: I have worked well with all manners of people of color. I feel assimilation and unification has been, to some extent, achieved.

What this editorial is about is the accelerating trend of the American left to engage in Revenge Politics and to oppress and denigrate an entire race of people based only on their skin color.
