Romans 1:20-27 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified Him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet...
Just one downward spiral. Men deny God - despite all the evidence of His Goodness and care - and God eventually 'gives them up to themselves', and they descend further and further into depravity.
Privilege is what the lazy and stupid want the hand outs never end for them.
Exactly. How bad does it get for the people who decry the current modus operandi until that turnaround moment occurs? It’s unknowable, and this admin is exhibiting all the signs of a cornered animal. There has already been epic destruction in literally every sector of the economy and society. How much more?
In my 50 odd years being white has garnered me NO privileges.
Prov 26
4 Do not answer a fool according to his folly,
or you yourself will be just like him.
5 Answer a fool according to his folly,
or he will be wise in his own eyes.
(Don’t argue with the fool using his premises - destroy his premises.)
She forgot that it is actually rich, middle aged, white, heterosexual, Christian, male, of European descent privilege.This is the group that is oppressing and exploiting the postmodern neoproletariat.
More likely, I suspect, the Left’s “protected classes” will begin to exact violent retribution against those they have determined unacceptable to them. Further, it is no stretch to think that these violent retaliations would be tacitly supported by the government, meaning no prosecution, and probably no real attempt at justice. Eric Holder has already set precedent on this point
The question is, how far and how fast will this come about. Seems to me like things are moving at a fast clip already.
Yes indeed. The hidden truth is that much of the governing class and their academic enablers believe in one fashion or another that normal middle class white people are THE PROMBLEM. In order for the US to become a part of a functioning ‘interdependent global society’ the spirit and the very identity of the middle class has to be broken and remade. White guilt and ‘white privilege’ are important intellectual tools in this struggle. Equally important is bringing enough non-white third world people to the US so that the US will ‘look like the world that is emerging’. Finally recalcitrant whiteys will be controlled by some sort of street militia called ‘The Community Police’ that will be recruited by ‘community leaders’ from maladjusted and unemployable young non white males. This is no fantasy, I have heard enough inside the beltway coded speech talking about this sort of scenario.
Leftist Privilege rules America
Excellent observation about the difference between discussing and rebutting.
“White Privilege” is simple racism. There is no way to ‘fix’ the condition like there is no way to ‘fix’ the pigment shade.
My opinion is that it is a method to enable non-whites to retain ‘victimhood’ in spite of all hiring preferences and academic adjustments. That this coming to the fore now after 5 years of a ‘black’ President is no accident.
It is ugly and as a generalization totally laughable. Unfortunately I am sure it will become a race-baiter meme for a long time to come as it works to the liberal ‘white guilt’ factor.
I took the test and scored a 54. From the questions, living as a normal American is privilege. Graduating high school and college, having 2 parents, not being a homo, wierdo or addict, and living within your means is their def of privilege. “Privilege” is making good decisions, working hard and staying out of trouble. If you choose to do otherwise its your F’in problem.
Maybe she should look to her “American Privilege”.
Gee I feel the same way about whomever coined the phrase “feral blacks”.
I've come to the concusion that they suffer from Muenchausen syndrome by proxy. They purposely inflict pain and suffering upon America, repeatedly bringing her to the brink of death, so that they can appear as the loving, devoted mother determined to fight for the life of her sick child.
Mentally deranged attention 'hos. Describes most of Congress as well. When so-called representatives ("advocates") claim to be doing the people's work and "fighting" for a cure for whatever ails them, well...
It goes a long way in explaining why the country just keeps getting sicker.
