"What it's gonna take to dismantle white supremacy is white folks actually gotta give up something. You have to actually sacrifice yourself. You have to be willing to give up the things that you currently benefit from."
She didn't specify what, ...
Geez, either the author is incredibly dense, or is unwilling or afraid to speak the truth. It is clear what this leech wants. Anyone who has ever held me up on the street or carjacked me while driving has always wanted one thing and one thing only: my money. They don't give a crap about my political ideology or how I am voting in the coming election. All they want is whitey's money, and then maybe kill him for the thrill of it.
As Rush would say, "by the way", did anyone pick up on the "white folks" racist dog whistle, especially the "folks" part? Who else do we all know does the "folks" this and "folks" that routine? Why do black racists always fall back on that old saw pejorative (the way they use it)?
I am perfectly willing to stop oppressing blacks by the mere presence of my white self, as are many whites, hence white flight. But I never saw a people so determined to be oppressed, as they will follow their so-called oppressors to the ends of the earth.
I don’t care what she or any other black purports to believe that I as a white person needs to (further) sacrifice in the eternal effort to uplift blacks, I’m not giving up anything more than I’m already forced to give up. I have white people who need the help to worry about. If they can care about their own teibe and no one else, so can I. And civilisation will go sideways if whites disappear, the same can’t be said of blacks in general.
When black “teens” are raping elderly women, sometimes beating or killing them, and sometimes not even bothering to rob them, that tells me all I need to know about what motivates many blacks, Not a level playing field (which has been tilted in their favor already, though they themselves are the weight which keeps it from working for them), but plain old hatred and a desire to play the role of oppressor which they claim whites play (even as they follow us oppressors around in our white flight like white on rice).
