It started as soon as I was old enough to form memories.
My mother took me to see Gone with the Wind, in the early 1960s, when it was still playing in first run theaters. A Confederate as the hero!
Disney's animated features from the past are now recognized as racist. Bugs Bunny, Tom and Jerry, The Three Stooges, all racist!
In my college years, British comedies began being popular in the Colonies.
Considering how advanced Europeans are compared to guns and religion, you would think these shows at least would be empowering of the masses. But sadly, turns out my favorite, Fawlty Towers, was as racist as any.
In the 1980s, I watched The Dukes of Hazzard. That alone is enough to inspire people to join the Ku Klux Klan, or so I heard.
The above concerns the great wasteland of movies and television. My formal education was no better. It started off on the wrong foot in first grade. I was made to say the pledge of allegiance daily, to a flag that symbolized racism. When it came to learning to read, I was subjected to the racist horror that is Dr. Seuss.
I was taught mathematics. Turned out the way it was taught was rooted in white supremacy, with "the focus is on getting the 'right' answer."
Everything I was taught in elementary school I now know was inundated with racism A few years ago the former New York City school chancellor opened my eyes when he sent teachers to re-education seminars to eradicate the "white supremacy culture" and "structural racism." that manifested itself in how students where being taught. Teachers had to eliminate the racist ideas of "perfectionism," "worship of the written word," "either/or thinking," "individualism," "objectivity," and "sense of urgency."

I am completely and totally non-racist in every way. There is not a racist bone in my body.
That’s because I hate everybody equally.
Especially liberals.
White Castle is rayciss. Buy em by the sack.
I am an equal opportunity bigot.
It must be pointed out that our FedGov produced that graphic. Your friends at the Smithsonian Institute, of which NMAAHC is a part.
We are being adversely propagandized by are government at every turn.
The West and it’s culture wouldn’t exist without Whites and therefore is ‘racist’.
Our government, sheesh. That’s what I get for posting before coffee.
I figure that if I’m going to be looked at as a racist, then I might as well play the part, so I’ve started to do just that. Not long ago, I had two Uber rides, one with a ‘local’ from an inner city, one with an immigrant from Eastern Europe. Both excellent drivers, both very nice people. Guess which one got a nice, big, tip, and which one didn’t get a tip. Time for some ‘collective accountability’ on their side.

This is a surprisingly cogent and reasoned list of white culture — coming from NMAAHC after all.
I’d like to see a similar graphic for black culture. I wonder if they can be just as honest...
Did the group that created this graphic realize that they were printing a roadmap to personal success???
I think it’s not really “white”
That’s just a way of marginalizing and attacking. It’s a list of traits that lead to success with a few distractions like holidays thrown in. There are successful people of all races and ethnicity; these are the traits they have in common.
We can not let the left define us or define what is correct. The lunatics do not run the asylum, they just think they do.
The marginalization leads to genocide.
I know I am racist every time I soak in the tub. When I get in I am somewhat dark from all the dirt and such, but as I lay there (with a little bit of scrubbing) I become whiter. See, dat’s raciss!
