For forty-five years (1964 to 2009), the United States experienced significant progress in race relations. Thanks to the efforts of individual citizens in their communities throughout all regions of the country, this nation was well on its way to racial healing. In 2008 only 18% of Americans were greatly concerned or worried about the state of race relations in the country as nearly 70% thought that relations between Whites and Blacks were very or somewhat good.
In 2009, the most divisive and societally destructive president in American history, Barack Obama, came into office determined to reverse this trend by manipulating the Black citizenry into abandoning racial harmony by utilizing malicious demonization of the White population. He succeeded in fanning the dying embers of racism into a potential national conflagration.
Thanks to Obama and the media’s incessant drumbeat that so-called “white supremacy” is a major threat to minorities, in particular Blacks, a Washington Post poll in May of 2022 revealed that three quarters of Blacks are worried that they or someone they love will be attacked by a white person -- while the reality is that Blacks perpetrate the vast majority of interracial crime. And nearly as many, 70 percent, believe that half or more of all White people “hold white supremacist beliefs.”
A Rasmussen poll taken in February of 2023, exposed the inevitable and disturbing reality that only 54% of Blacks think it’s ok to be White. Race based hatred and discrimination now appears to pervade the bulk of the Black population. This same mindset is also pervasive within far too many of the nation’s private and government institutions.

Exactly. Anyone that has a hint of anything other than “white” will claim to not be white.
White privilege in action!
The pendulum always swings back further in the opposite direction when it stays in one direction too long. The transvestites might learn that lesson too if they keep going after children.
“In 2009, the most divisive and societally destructive president in American history, Barack Obama”
Obama was just the inevitable continuation of the previous 45 years.
This dysfunctional marriage never worked, doesn’t work and will never work.
The sooner we accept that and have an amicable divorce, the better for all concerned.
Yep, and quite courageous, because he knew the consequences of what he said, but went ahead anyway.
You reach a point when you cannot live a lie anymore.
“Whites” may be a shrinking majority but will still have a large plurality. It is also highly unlikely that Asians, Mestizos/“Hispanics” and blacks will all unite to “get whitey.”
Very true but those riots that took place in the first half of the 20th century took part when poor whites and poor blacks lived in adjoining communities and competed for employment in all of the factories that were going up back then. It was before the interstate highway system and the growth of prosperity for whites relative to blacks, to say nothing of elite-endorsed ideologies of white supremacy which the elites abandoned after WWII.
Have known this most of my life.
I agree the Marxists are driving this division. Everyone I copied on this posts get that.
Sadly, many folks usually on the side of freedom and liberty (not CC'd) are carrying Engles et al's water. Or, maybe they like being Marxist (more on that later).
A little perspective is helpful. Many on our side bash polls for a variety of reason - including small sample size, unbalanced R/D mix, non-random draws - and rightly so. This poll is on unstable footing:
According to the results of 1,000 adults asked by Rasmussen, 47% of black respondents either believe it is not OK to be white (26%) or are not sure (21%).
Now...in a nation of 330MM people, where (per 2020 Census) blacks make up 12.1% of the total, and assuming Rasmussen drew their sample proportionately, are we going to let 121 blacks' responses speak for about 40 million blacks?
To quote x, "The article is inflammatory pandering." If this was a "bash Trump" poll, people would be throwing bricks at it. But the Marxist class laps it up.
Let's keep going. We can always find a barroom full of dunderheads. When that happens, we go to another bar. But this poll has been reposted frequently on FR and elsewhere...why are people doing the Marxists' dirty work?
It's a frequent ploy of anti-semites to hide their True Feelings with the mask of "Anti-Zionism." They rant and rave like a good bigot and, on a good day, they'll even write or say "some of my best friends are Jewish." Along this way, they snare good people who should know better.
I don't know what sits in any man's heart...that's between him and God. However, I understand that some people are easily swayed by Marxism. The seduction is slow and starts at the edges. When the trap snaps, the ensnared utter their Best Friend comment. But that comment would not work for them.
Over the past three years, a LOT of folks who used to champion free minds, free markets, and a free society, have been seduced by The Dark Side. Many "conservatives" nowadays gleefully bash the stock market and companies, while DEMANDING that the DOJ break up tech companies.
I get ignorance. I get bigotry. I get tribalism. I understand despair. These are bricks in the pathway to embracing Marxism. But for a group of folks who are aghast at boys becoming girls, I never envisioned this lot would willingly skip down that path and transition to Marxism.
We can turn back the waves of bigtoy that the Serpent started and which, arguably, Dem Administration after Dem Administration has fomented. It starts with people calling balls and strikes and outs. Hopefully, the trannies can make it back before the surgery.
Your mileage may vary. Thanks for listening.
Obama knew he had to divide America, he knew that unless Blacks hated Whites and kept voting 95% for Dems the Dems would never win the WH again. He succeeded.
Self-sacrifice is something you do for those you love.
It's hard to love people who hate you.
In case you haven't noticed, blacks will come into white areas, and especially the shopping areas of white people, to loot and pillage, carjack nice cars, etc.
As their own neighborhoods experience stores shutting down due to rampant theft, the locusts will come to white zones. White people will then have to either accept being pillaged, and their wives and daughters being carjacked and raped, or do something profoundly unpleasant to the locusts.
Don’t delude yourself. Self hating Whites put him in the White House both times. Blacks don’t compries enough of the population to have elected him if everyone voted for him. Ihad a relative that said,”I voted for him because I wanted to say,”I voted for the first Black man to run for President.”
That was how he got into the White House two times. Self hating Whites.
Aggressive law enforcement (a La Giuliani era NY) or white flight. That’s basically what happens. Nothing more nothing less.
Though the metaphor is a little too Star Wars for my taste, I agree that too many have been "seduced" into "picking one from only two sides" when there are so often more than two options to consider. Sometimes many.
My answer and tool for analysis of much is basic liberty for all. That which curtails another's liberty will come to curtail mine and yours too. No matter how high-sounding the "curtailment" seems in a given moment. It is the individual against the collective, and, as many have observed over time, as the collective grows larger, the individual must grow smaller. True of power and control as well.
Liberty. Not a bad idea, after all. Sure beats being a slave.
In case you haven't noticed, increasing areas of the country are coming under the rule of politicians who support the locusts, and who tell the police to not come down on them.
There will come a point where there is no pace left to run to for safety.
“If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed;
if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly;
you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival.
There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.”
― Winston S. Churchill
Why dey hate us??? We dindu nuffin!
