American Republicans who support Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential bid are knowingly backing “the meanest, whitest, most vile bigot possible” because they fear losing majority status.
That’s according to The Guardian’s Steven Thrasher, who contends that minorities will never prosper in the United States until 2043 “when this white supremacist nation becomes mostly non-white.”
Thrasher calls Trump’s rise to political power on the right predictable nearly eight years after the nation elected its first black president because “every bold advancement of progress in the United States is met by a racist backlash.”
Calling Obama “a clear symbol that the country is literally becoming more black,” Thrasher believes white Americans view Trump as a candidate who could somehow reverse the trend.
“In its final 27 years, some of the dying white majority are so desperate to hold onto their dwindling power it’ll come as no surprise when they follow history’s powder and elect a reactionary, racist, sexist man,” Thrasher said. “And that’s why a Trump presidency would be as historically American as the bald eagle, indigenous genocide, the three-fifths clause, mass incarceration, and apple pie.”
This, of course, is a bunch of nonsense.
First of all, Obama’s hope and change progress for U.S. blacks looks a little less impressive from a minority perspective by the numbers.
As talk show host and political commentator Tavis Smiley pointed out awhile back when asked if black Americans are doing better under Obama: “I’m not sure we are and I think ultimately the president missed a moment… On every leading economic issue, in the leading economic issues Black Americans have lost ground in every one of those leading categories. So in the last ten years it hasn’t been good for black folk. This is the president’s most loyal constituency that didn’t gain any ground in that period.”
Since Obama’s ‘bold advancement” into the White House, black poverty rates have inched up by a couple percentage points while labor participation rates for American blacks have hit historic lows.
Back in 2014, The Financial Times pointed out that median income for non-white households in the U.S. had “dropped by almost a 10th to $33,000 a year” since Obama’s inauguration. Similarly, net worth for black households fell an astonishing 34 percent between 2010 and 2013.
So if white Americans were truly looking for a presidential candidate who can harm minority progress, they’d vote for whichever candidate whose economic policy agenda most closely resembles Obama’s.
Also, that idiot mayor in New York. Maybe they are ashamed of that fact. I have known a few white crips. Two of them said they were black on the inside. It's possible those 3 POSs feel the same way. Who knows for sure?
There will no one to work and create. Whites are having a hard time carrying the load now that boomers are retiring and being replaced by foreign visa workers.

It’s working for them, if not by design, then by luck.
***If they think they’ll be safe behind their high fences and armed guards they are sorely mistaken***
If I was them, I’d be more worried about the “armed guards” than the people outside of the gates once the SHTF.
Concentrate on the good-looking young single women.
Then watch the Democrats try to put up a wall on the Atlantic Seaboard...

Come to the northeast; it is happening much more quickly than the media will let on (to prevent reaction until it is too late). It isn’t becoming black; it is becoming Hispanic & Asian.
You’re right about whites contracepting themselves into extinction, but many non-whites are realizing that as they disappear their tax revenues do as well. Really impacting areas here in the northeast that have fallen; there is nobody else to tag with the bills for public schools, etc., and companies are fleeing because 1) they don’t want to pay the taxes either, and 2) they can’t find literate workers.
Why isn’t it the case that ‘once white, always white’ got left out of the mix. Inter-racial always skews to anything but white. Dumb move.
I remember that black superpredator that shot & killed the two NYC cops while they were eating in their patrol car; he wanted to kill white cops and got an Asian and a Hispanic instead.
Many blacks are finding themselves further and further removed from encountering whites on any given day...
Which is why we will not see an end to abortion, it is the last check on the increasing black and brown populations that their is. If it wasn’t for abortion Gore would have won Florida and the Presidential election easily....but all those tens of thousands of black democratic voters were aborted. Sad but true.
Also sad is that no Conservative Leader will say what you said.....whites are contracepting themselves into extinction...that coupled with millions of illegals crossing over unchecked.....Trump will be the last White American Exceptionalism President for a long time, if he doesn’t build the wall.....and deport them all.
If Trump doesn’t win, we will be led by leaders who apologize and give in and surrender to save their own hides.
“Come to the northeast; it is happening much more quickly than the media will let on (to prevent reaction until it is too late). It isn’t becoming black; it is becoming Hispanic & Asian.”
If you want to mention Hispanics and Asians, come to the southwest. Not so many blacks here. Not too many Asians either, but even in just the past few years, there’s been an absolute tsunami of non English speaking hispanics, that is: illegal invaders. But that’s certainly not isolated to the northeast or southwest, the illegal invaders are EVERYWHERE.
I think they have successfully slowed down the black birthrate with a combination of welfare reform, government/token jobs, and unearned college seats for young blacks; I’m surprised how many younger black co-workers either have no children or just one. Also in my area, blacks are increasingly confined to urban cores while the no-man’s-land between them and white suburbs fill up with Asians and Hispanics. Whites certainly are fading, though...
They are everywhere here as well, but they are different castes; the braceros are blue-collar “replacement Americans” while the coolies are white-collar “replacement Americans”.
The county north of me in NJ has just added a third language to all government business (ballots and such); they are now in English, Spanish, and KOREAN.
And importantly, Hispanics and Asians often have zero “white guilt”, so don’t take any crap off blacks. There are parts of California where the Mexicans and Mexican Americans lost patience with blacks, so the Mexican Mafia has taken to slowly ethnically cleansing neighborhoods, kicking the blacks out.
“Singularity will be achieved in another 5-10 years.”
Would you please elaborate on that a bit? Thanks!
There is no love lost between them here either; blacks are watching Hispanics go from taking over neighborhoods to taking the political and patronage jobs as well (along with the set-aside government jobs, college seats, etc.). Whole departments at my (non-government) job that had been primarily staffed by blacks are very Hispanic now(and the remaining blacks are furious and resentful).
In the end we’ll do something like India does with their untouchable caste (dalits?); they have set aside a proportion of jobs just for them. We’ll have two classes of affirmative action set-asides now; one for general victims (Hispanics, females) and one for preferred victims (blacks specifically). Fluency in English was the one edge they had over Hispanics, and most have lost it.
I should have been more specific.
Technological Singularity, which means basically that AI would be able to replicate itself and build upon itself with ever increasing technology and intelligence that would make humans go blind.
Depending on who you ask in the Scientific Community, we’ll be able to achieve it between 2020 and 2045.
Hugo De Garis came up with the phrase “the Artilect War”. This video explains singularity pretty well.

If only.
73% of Asian-Americans voted to reelect Barack Obama.
