White Women's March Madness
American Thinker ^ | January 14, 2017 | Lynne Lechter

Posted on 01/14/2017 4:29:08 AM PST by Kaslin

In the epic film Titanic, actress Kathy Bates plays the role of Margaret Molly Brown. Of Irish descent, Molly is depicted as a straight-shooting, no-nonsense, wealthy Texan with a penchant for social climbing. However, the smug, condescending aura, exuded by the elites, never washes over her. After escaping the sinking Titanic in a one-third empty lifeboat, surrounded mostly by married women and a few male staff, Molly is appalled by her fellow survivors’ callousness. Molly wants to rescue nearby male passengers, fighting for their lives in the frigid sea. Her lifeboat is less than 200 feet from the men screaming for help. The crew refuse, stating that the suction of the sinking ship will drag them under; rather than rowing towards the men, they must get away as quickly as possible. Undeterred, Molly persists:

I don’t understand a one of you. What’s the matter with you? It’s your men back there! We got plenty a’ room for more.

In response, Molly is told that if she says another word, there will be one less occupant in the boat. None of the other passengers come to Molly’s defense. And so they leave; their sons, brothers, husbands and fathers knowingly betrayed and abandoned to await their cruel death.

The pejorative term “white privilege” has been hurled to date almost entirely against white males. This relatively new addition to America’s litany of purported sins is emerging as a core part of the left’s pantheon of victimization. Non-whites are now victims because Western European and American culture have extant societal structures conferring special privileges to white-skinned people. Especially, white-skinned male people. The only way to remedy this imbalance is to vilify white males and degrade their accomplishments. Concomitantly, income redistribution is justified and criminal behavior recharacterized and excused.

Amazing how white privilege was created by whites.

As I like to say, any time I see the term White Privilege, I translate it as White Competency and Western Civilization and things make more sense. I really hope that someone tries to use the White Privilege talking point in my presence, as I will verbally unload on them. If they don’t want to live in the schema that White Competency and Western Civilization provides, they need to quit complaining and appropriating my cultural heritage and go live in a mud or straw hut without electricity, running water, and plumbing. And probably die an early death.

IN typical racist fashion this attack on white males and white privilege is orchestrated by the black klan, based on envy of those peoples who built western civilization and the modern world. Ask yourself, what has come out of Africa, a place that had no written language, no science, no math, no engineering, or even a bridge over an expanse of water. Without the European influence where would they be today, Mr Obama? Mr Sharpton?, mr Jackson?

Exactly!

They might as well admit they’re jealous and insecure, which is the way I’ve always read it.

Anything that forces White People to walk the streets aware of the fact that they are White is ultimately good. Restoring white identity is the first step towards establishing a secure homeland for themselves. A white nation will ultimately benefit the entire world through science and innovation as Europe and the United States did in the past.

Beyond that, they were to stupid to invent the wheel in any form. Without the west they would still be dragging things everywhere they went.

Sure, off topic, by white men’s madness still in full bloom over at NR. Here’s Jonah:

“I very much want Trump to be a successful conservative president — which is to say, I don’t want him to be a successful statist president. I understand all-too-well that many of Trump’s fans do want him to be a successful statist president. They don’t use the word “statist,” preferring the rough synonym “nationalist.” They either sincerely think, or convincingly pretend to think, that there’s a meaningful difference between a statist and a nationalist. There isn’t.”

These people suffer from the Liberal syndrome. "Words mean just what I want them to mean, no more, no less." The rest of us have to refer from time to time to the dictionary to be sure we are using words that accurately convey our meanings. In that arena the terms are vastly different.

Whites are so horrible and privileged that denying others access to us by building a wall is racist.

"Molly is depicted as a straight-shooting, no-nonsense, wealthy Texan with a penchant for social climbing."

In case anyone cares to know ...... Molly was NOT. Texan, she was born in Missouri and the family moved to Colorado when she was a teen. She married there and lived in CO till way after her husband died and she spent her later years in New York (as an actress, If memory serves me right).

Poor analogy. The crew member was right. They'd have swamped the lifeboat and they all would've perished.

Well, Jonah, has the United States been nationalist, like all other states since its inception, up until modern times? Yes.

Was it statist until FDR? No.

So then typically idiot Jonah, statist and nationalist are not the same. The United States has become statist and non-nationalist. Most of us prefer nationalist and non-statist.

Actually, Africa had a substantial civilization before the arrival of Islam and the slave trading and tribal wars which went along with it. Try googling the history of Timbuktu just for one example. There are more.

Who’s paying for the buses?

Who’s buying the signs?

Who’s paying ‘organizers’?

Effing ‘rent-a-mob’ ....

If ‘the press’ wasn’t part of the white liberal elite scam they would report on who’s buying these ‘rent a mob’ so-called protesters.

If Republicans tried to pull of these scams the liars in the press would catch it and report on it.

Did you see the movie? Don't know if it was accurate, but it was certainly way closer to true history than the Leonardo diCapitated version. There were not enough survivors in one area to even attempt to swamp the lifeboat. They were scattered over a fairly wide expanse.

There were even a couple of lifeboats doing the right thing by transferring passengers while the emptied boat would go back and pick up survivors. There were many acts of even greater heroism that night.

Forgot to state that it’s not because of “whiteness”.

It is because of philosophy.
