“I do have white privilege. It’s my privilege to be a descendant of many generations of whites who lived, strove, fought, learned, loved and died.”
Me too. Our ancestors also, somehow, have come up an extremely good culture, and I don’t want to see it messed up by a bunch of angry minorities from uncivilized cultures that think we’re the bad guys.
A good read. Trump is not about race until these people make it.
Multiculturalism is completely overrated.
I’m not proud of a race. But no one should be ashamed of their ancestors. We didn’t choose them. We are all pretty mixed if you go far enough back.
What I don’t like is one race chosen to be the “loser.” One race/culture who is picked out of the others to be less human in the eyes of the others is the worst thing humanity has to offer. My recent ancestors (like Dad) were chosen to be killed for their culture. They were systematically EXTERMINATED and that is the word used by their government. (Dad survived.)
I see the beginnings of this happening now when I signed up my child for public school. There was a long list of “races” to choose from for her. About 8 or 9. Every single “race” had a geographical location in its name. Very logical and fair, in the naming. Pacific Islander, Middle Eastern, etc. Except for the last race, which was called “white.” The only “race” reduced to some approximation of a skin color. Who cares where those low lifes came from? How can anyone not see there is an institutional push to denigrate these people forced to check the last pathetic box? In a list like that, one would need a designation “European descent.”
To all of it, who cares?! Stop collecting this fake “race” info. It’s not important. For medical use, a simple gene test will tell doctors all they need to know about tendencies. We would be a better people if we forget the hell about race.
