Is Lipman a Jewish Surname”
“Yes, Lipman is traditionally a Jewish surname. It is of Ashkenazi Jewish origin”

Can Leftists stop Whining about and Demonizing White Men? I’m 54. For my entire life, it has been not only acceptable but actually required to openly discriminate against White Men for school applications, jobs, government grants, etc etc. White Men far more than any other group have been demonized and belittled by Hollywood and in the corporate media. In fact, the corporate media go miles out of their way to tout whenever a criminal is White while doing the exact opposite whenever a criminal is Black going so far as to only describe what the perp was wearing or only talking about the SUV that was used to mow down a bunch of people at a parade in what was clearly a racist attack.

The Courts have openly discriminated against men in terms of handing out harsher penalties for the same crimes, in terms of awarding custody of children far less often in divorce cases, in terms of giving women a choice as to whether to become a parent or not when there is a pregnancy but giving men no choice at all, etc etc.

Yet, when White Men FINALLY start pushing back against this non stop demonization and outright discrimination...when White Men point out that we have laws against discrimination against anybody for their ethnicity or sex, here you are to whine about White Men again. When will you Leftists ever stop whining about White Men?

Baser is a real writer, but he missed on Archie Bunker. The program was such a raving success because so many Americans, men and women alike, identified with Bunker’s populist reaction against the liberal mind virus. Norman Lear, who had intended the opposite, was distraught at what he had done. He had inadvertently tapped into a deep well of discontent.

It is disgusting that in 2025 discrimination against white men is still tolerated in any form or any place.

We need to see more lawsuits against anyone and everyone discriminating against whites or asians on the basis of race.

Can anyone here imagine the uproar if someone penned an article, “Can Black people finally stop complaining?” Especially if the article showed how the lives of black people have improved over the last 100 years? Would anyone have the cojones to actually publish it?

The WSJ is garbage. I wish FBN would quit trying to give credibility to that bunch of communists. Lately they’ve been trotting out Gerry Baker, all that does is make me switch channels and wish I could punch that old English commie in the head.

Oh....did I mention the AP capitalizing Black but refusing to do the same with white? Did I mention - FOR YEARS that the White guy was always portrayed in commercials and on TV programs as the idiot, the fool, the dunce who had to be bailed out by the oh so clever woman or Black person?

Did I mention that media portrayals of interracial couples are OVERWHELMINGLY of a Black man and a White woman but very very rarely the other way around?

You Lefties want to claim all of the above is no big deal? My response is You’d DAMN SURE NOTICE if it was ANY other group of people treated this way. Literally ANY. You’re super quick to notice any perceived slight directed at any of the group you favor. Yet you’re more than happy to dish it out to White Men.

Yes, we noticed. We’ve noticed for a long time.

The secular Jew, and possibility some of the sects, view white people as their enemy. There are too many people with Jewish surnames involved in activities that would see a genocide of 800 million people to explain it any other way.

Yes, the Torah-observant Jew is not involved. I believe this fully, because they understand that everybody exists as a creation of God and attacking the creation of God is attacking God Himself, but the others don’t seem to share this viewpoint. To them, white people are the enemy and the solution is elimination.

Standard issue projection from a room temperature IQ Alt Leftist.

This is a “why are you making us hit you” argument

After decades of sleazy infantile white male bashing, suddenly the bashers are now whining because the “Old White Males” are fighting back

--- But why would the Wall Street Journal, one of the few remaining bastions of reasonably sane commentary in the legacy media, choose to run such a piece – especially since its most steadfast readers are, by and large, white males?

From Wiki:

In February 2024, the Journal laid off about 20 employees, primarily economics reporters based in Washington, D.C. Moving forward, those beats will be covered by the newspaper's New York-based business team.[88] The next month the paper laid off another five people from its standards and ethics team.[89] In April, the paper laid off at least 11 people from its video and social media desks.[90] In May, the Journal cut six editorial staff positions from its Hong Kong bureau and another two reporter jobs in Singapore. Moving forward the paper will shift its focus in the region from Hong Kong to Singapore with new the creation of several new jobs at that bureau.[91] More staff were laid off a few weeks later amid further restructuring, including at least eight reporters.[92]
Remember the BS of General Milley reading about and "trying" to understand "white rage?" This zeitgeist will pass. But in doing so, it's going to make a lot of people look foolish in retrospect.

I posted this comment on a different thread yesterday:

“I had a plan to become a city police officer in 1986. I went through the process and ended up number 2 on the list of several hundred. The black people sued and said the test was discriminatory. They won, and the city had to start the whole process over. I could not wait another 6 months and moved on. The test was general education and how much of a study booklet you could memorize. I ain’t the brightest bulb in the pack but I lived with that booklet for several weeks and studied my butt off. I was never a police officer because of lazy, litigious, uneducated black people.”

That’s a true story, and the fatigue is real.

The Wall Street Journal executives figure they might was well get some eyeballs on their website for quick cash, like burning the furniture for heat, because they know they have no future.

“The program was such a raving success because so many Americans, men and women alike, identified with Bunker’s populist reaction against the liberal mind virus. Norman Lear, who had intended the opposite, was distraught at what he had done.”

It did have the opposite effect on me. In my case I remember Archie looking in the phone book for a lawyer, but insisted that the lawyer be Jewish...because they’re the best.

I’ve used a form of that advice for decades now (thanks to Archie) and continue to use it. For example as long as I’m given a choice of a doctor or other professional, I make damn sure that the doctor didn’t get any ‘help’ along the way - which means White or American-educated Asian. Ironically, though, one of the few times that I asked for a referral was for my knee. The guy I asked would be an excellent FReeper (maybe is even here), and he pointed me to black doctor who had replaced his knee. This doctor loved his job and did a perfect repair on me. But...he was getting up in age, so he likely didn’t get much ‘help’ along the way, nor did he need it.

I feel sorry for people like him because I do see others who perform great at work...but it’s next to impossible, now, not to pre-judge people, due to DEI.

That’s a JAP writing in the Neo-Con Journal. I don’t really care.

--- "...like burning the furniture for heat...."

A fine analogy. So much of the "messaging" these days is for what will be short-lived themes.When traveling, I used to read IHT and WSJ bought in news stands in airport terminals and train stations, and read neither anymore. Ditto with Scientific American and some others of the same ilk. The youth these days don't read them, so time seems "short."
