“Marriage fundamentalism,” argues Professor Bethany Letiecq, is an “ideology and cultural phenomenon in which adherents espouse the superiority of the two-parent married family.”

This is correct. Then she goes off the rails. Why is it impossible for educated people to admit they are wrong?

Without reading the article, I would have to say that marriage and strong family units do create supremacy for the culture that practices those tenets, regardless of race.

I can understand his logic. The goal.is to justify and promote his bigotry against tradition. Not having any valid grounds for this desire, but being blessed with an abundant capacity for rationalizations, he picks something that is universally rejected in his culture and associates his target with it.

Universities morphed from “institutes of higher learning” into cesspools of disinformation with most professors just turds floating around in it.

“White Supremacy” is just a woke buzzword meaning “Western Civilization”.

The professor says two-parent minority couples don’t enjoy the advantages that two-parent white couples enjoy. This is an easily testable hypothesis. Just compare the success of minority children born and raised in two-parent households to the success of other minority children born and raised to one-parent households.

I’ll summarize the literature:

In studies involving large samples taken from the general populations two-parent households are associated with success of children whether or not conditioned on race or ethnicity.

In studies involving small samples of this kind of child (e.g., gifted) or that kind of household (e.g., financially-strained), success is sometimes found to be independent of one- or two-parent household.

What the latter studies ignore is that one- versus two-parent households affect things such as giftedness and financial condition.

If this helps, I’ll put this into abstract terms:

If X causes Y and Y causes Z, then X indirectly causes Z through Y.

Of course, racists will say logic is white, along with 2 + 2 = 4, math in general, facts, science, history, and reality.

BTW the professor concedes two-parent households confer advantages to whites. So, if you are white, consider how important is bringing children into the world in the context of a two-parent household.

If you aren’t white, think about whether you believe in the American principle that all men are created equal and whether there must be something wrong with an argument that minorities are actually different from whites. If you don’t believe in this principle, please leave. We like the principles on which this country was founded. And we have struggled through the still short history of this country to make these principles into reality. We are NOT going back.

Marxist worldviews, influenced by the ideas of Karl Marx, view the traditional family as a social institution that perpetuates class inequality and serves the interests of the ruling capitalist class. Marxists argue that the traditional family reinforces gender roles, reinforces the patriarchal power structure, and perpetuates capitalist values such as private property and individualism [1][2]. Their goal is to dismantle the traditional family as an oppressive structure by promoting communal living arrangements, shared parenting responsibilities, and the socialization of children outside the confines of the nuclear family. Marxists seek to create a society where relationships are based on cooperation, equality, and collective well-being rather than individualistic pursuits [4][6].

In contrast, postmodernist worldviews challenge the notion of a fixed and universal definition of the traditional family. They emphasize the diversity of family structures and reject the idea that there is a "normal" or ideal family model. Postmodernists argue that the traditional family is a social construct that is shaped by power dynamics, cultural norms, and historical context. Their goal is to deconstruct and destabilize traditional family structures by recognizing and valuing alternative family forms, such as single-parent households, same-sex families, and chosen families. Postmodernists advocate for the freedom to define and create one's own family arrangements based on personal choices and preferences, rather than conforming to societal expectations [3][5].

These pseudo intellectuals must be taking a dictionary and pointing to random words then claiming it’s racist.

We have to start confronting these people every time they say insane crap like this, enoough is enough. I'm going to look up her name to if she has an email, maybe a Twitter or even a phone number and just try to contact her so I can ask her "I believe marriage leads to cats wearing banana costumes. Tell me women, do you agree or disagree with my scientific assessment?? Tell me now!" I'll even send her photos for evidence. She likes to talk insane, then let's talk insane.

"Traditional Marriage Promotes 'White Supremacy'"

That's what I keep telling my wife, but it falls on deaf ears.

IOW, only living like animals is not white supremacist.

If people are so opposed to *white supremacy* then they need to give up all the comforts *white supremacy* have provided them with and go live off the land in huts. Give up civilization altogether.
