Could It Be Time To Deny White Men The Franchise?
Huffington Post ^ | April 13, 2017 | Shelley Garland

Some of the biggest blows to the progressive cause in the past year have often been due to the votes of white men. If white men were not allowed to vote, it is unlikely that the United Kingdom would be leaving the European Union, it is unlikely that Donald Trump would now be the President of the United States, and it is unlikely that the Democratic Alliance would now be governing four of South Africa's biggest cities.

If white men no longer had the vote, the progressive cause would be strengthened. It would not be necessary to deny white men indefinitely – the denial of the vote to white men for 20 years (just less than a generation) would go some way to seeing a decline in the influence of reactionary and neo-liberal ideology in the world. The influence of reckless white males were one of the primary reasons that led to the Great Recession which began in 2008. This would also strike a blow against toxic white masculinity, one that is long needed.

I fail to see a problem if they do this. I’ll just go to the poll and claim I identify as a pre-surgery, female, black, transexual transvestite and go ahead and vote. What could they do in that instance? Since they won’t require any objective tests for such claims, by their own philosophy they’d have to let me vote. Problem solved.

With all due regard to the intelligent, educated, logical, and articulate women on this forum.

Therein lies the problem.

It's not a matter of intellect; it's a matter of loyalty, fidelity, and integrity.

No, but from this article, it's time to repeal the 19th.

(And the 16th and 17th while we're at it...)

communism never dies; it only comes back in other forms, be it racial (like this article), or gender-related (we should all be 32 genders so there’s no gay or straight, no norm, we’re all equal)

Don't worry...

Isaiah 3:12
12 As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.

If not allowed access to the voting box, I’d get out the cartridge box, in various flavors of 5.56x45, 7.62x39, 7.62x51, 9mm, 40S&S, 45ACP, 22LR & 12ga.

And white men contributed a whole lot more intellectually in math, science, physics, about anything you can think of. They solved the riddle of the DNA molecule and a whole lot more.

And most of the rest of the world, including women, were taught the secrets by the men, ran with them, built on them, worked with them, taught them, but never came up with much of their own..

I say that as a woman. Men invented almost everything that makes my life easier (and harder if not used correctly by myself or others, like say cars) except the tampon which was invented by a nurse. There are probably a few more things by now.

It's not sexist or misogynist to state facts. Or is it?

Could it be time to demonstrate to the modern Commies the truth of what their idol Mao said:

“Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun”

?

Yes and yes.

It always comes down to some filthy scum thinking they can inflict their filth on those that want nothing to do with them.

From poking the local bully in the nose at an early age to help tame him or her, we wind up in adulthood where the filthy scum must be taken out at the first sign of not getting it when they were young enough to learn better.

There is no hope for adults that accept targeting innocents is acceptable. Outdoing the creeps is a constant struggle ...

You may be a paper tyger, friend. I am the real thing. Whatever it takes, I have the equipment, the fortitude and the requisite experience.

Yet another author from a political culture festered and birthed in a Petri dish.
