Brave, very brave.

But largely true. Truth hurts.

I’m getting to be a old white man and I could car less whether I am blamed for anything or everything...

DaVinci, Einstein, Newton, Jefferson, Locke, Hawking, Galileo, Beethoven, Shakespeare, Michelangelo, Mozart, Columbus, Lincoln, Alexander the Great, Elvis, Lennon, McCartney, Buckminster Fuller, Tesla, Ford, Twain, Patton...

I’m just getting started. It’s a pretty wide ranging group but I await a similar list from another demographic. And wait, and wait.

I’ve often wondered why Africa, which is often pointed to as the cradle of civilization (they had Egypt, for example), and clearly pre-dated the existence of the US, never emerged as a global military and economic super-power during any of its history.

Maybe economics and wealth are just angry, old, white male concepts.

Old White Men should disinherit their Communist children, who follow their Leftist professors’ political vendetta against OWM.

If they aren’t willing to write them out of their wills, Old White Men should spend every dime while they are alive and let these brainwashed perpetual children wonder where the money went when their dad leaves this mortal coil.

As a group, white men are the best fighters on Earth, bar none. All the crushing armaments and strategies to use them were largely developed by white men. That scares the hell out of commies and leftists, which is why they’re desperately trying to ally themselves with muslims. They need a surrogate army to take on white men.

White males have been fair game for a long time now. Just pay attention to the role of the white male over 30 in advertising today.

Even when they are under 30 and are the usual super powerful, mousse headed, Lexus driving mavericks...they are NOT more powerful or relevant than the women they wish to impress with their coifes and cars. Those women are supreme in the hierarchy. Only topped by the ones who are black. Those women are untouchable, indefatigable and untouchable.

Definitely in the category of “Words That Cannot Be Spoken” but absolutley spot-on. It is telling that some here at FR are troubled by it. The rot has penetrated very deeply.

They are all gloating since 0-Saviour got back in. Juan Williams is so full of himself on Fox. I have to dive for the remote to mute him

Lots of gloom and doom from Rush and Sean. What is the over-under for when Rush retires to New Zealand as has mentioned? I think before this second Obama term is finished. Faith and family is the only way to rise above the 0bama captivity

You keep all your smart modern writers
Give me William Shakespeare
You keep all your smart modern painters
I’ll take Rembrandt, Titian, Da Vinci and Gainsborough,

Girl we gotta get out of here
We gotta find a solution
I’m a twentieth century man but I don’t want to die here.

I was born in a welfare state
Ruled by bureaucracy
Controlled by civil servants
And people dressed in grey
Got no privacy, got no liberty
Cos the twentieth century people
Took it all away from me.

Don’t wanna get myself shot down
By some trigger happy policeman,
Gotta keep a hold on my sanity
I’m a twentieth century man but I don’t wanna die here.

” You know you’re getting old when the hair starts falling off your head and starts growing in your ears.”

Way off topic, but a nice truism none the less.

Interesting that this extreme hatred of old white men appears to be coming to a head precisely at the point in human history when old white men are figuring out how to reverse the aging process, i.e., to disguise themselves as young white men. Those crafty old devils. They’re going to be around forever!
