He’s a One-Percenter! rich kid whitey The Revolution

Jonathan Butler, the University of Missouri graduate student who went on a weekend hunger strike, comes from a family worth $20 million. His father is a railroad vice president and made over $8 million last year.

Butler complained about white privilege. He argued he was oppressed. St. Louis Today reported:

Jonathan Butler, a central figure in the protests at the University of Missouri, is an Omaha native and the son of a railroad vice president, the Omaha World-Herald reports.

Butler refused food last week in a move to force the university system’s president, Timothy M. Wolfe, from office. Wolfe resigned Monday and Butler ended his hunger strike.

Jonathan Butler played high-school football at Omaha Central High, where he won a state championship, and earned a bachelor’s degree in business administration from Mizzou, the newspaper reports. He is working toward a master’s degree in educational leadership and policy.

He is a member of a prominent Omaha family. The newspaper says that Butler’s father is Eric L. Butler, executive vice president for sales and marketing for the Union Pacific Railroad. His 2014 compensation was $8.4 million, according to regulatory filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Being a “1%” is a state of mind. You could be stinkin’ rich and be oppressed. And you could a trailer park living hand to mouth while also feelin’ da power.

I’d say he’s less concerned about “white privilege” than he is about “white submission”

This clown loves to play the race card and say, “I’m a victim I’m a victim” while he comes from a family worth 20 million.

Well he just screwed that pooch. Thankfully though his old man will be able to get one of his country club buddies to hire him into his company and groom him and protect him as a minority.

Oh but of course he would not have his slimy hands all over this. Oh no he would never do that.

It’s like having to listen to multi-millionaires like film maker “Spike” Lee bitching about how the system that he has milked all his life is oppressive and unfair.
Poor little bitch.

Just another limousine liberal posing as the Vanguard of the Proletariat. White privilege indeed. My late Uncle who jumped at Sicily and Market Garden with the 82nd Airborne wouldn’t be amused. My late Grandma raised nine kids (six girls and three boys) after her husband died in 1935. All three boys served in the Army. She went to bed every night for the better part of three years not knowing if she’d be awakened by someone from the War Department! So shut up you worthless fraud. You and Obama have been cossetted your entire lives, mainly by a bunch of guilt laden white liberals.

They always are. In the book "Leftism Revisited" the author points out that Socialist movements always emerge from the silver spoon fed children and wives of wealthy men.
