'White supremacists by default': How ordinary people made Charlottesville possible
CNN ^ | August 24, 2017 | John Blake,

Posted on 08/24/2017 11:00:35 AM PDT by detective

Blame President Trump for his tepid moral response. Call the neo-Nazis and white nationalists thugs. Fill your Facebook and Twitter accounts with moral outrage.

But the tragedy that took place in Charlottesville this month could not have occurred without the tacit acceptance of millions of ordinary, law-abiding Americans who helped create such a racially explosive climate, some activists, historians and victims of extremism say.

"unconsciously or inadvertently, all of us white folks participate in forms of supremacist thought and activity."

There is never a penalty for falsely accusing someone or anyone or every white person of being a racist or a white supremacist.

It’s propaganda group think by lemmings who pretend that “speaking out” somehow immunizes them from their own prejudices

Just look at where these people live and shop and send their brats to school. They run for the hills once the “minorities” they fake “caring about” start coming around

BTW, how many of these do-gooders EVER live in minority hoods? Answer” they don’t. If they really really “cared” they would integrate and “diversify” but they don’t. In fact, they participate in gentrification and rub their hands in glee with it chases the minorities out.

I’m pretty sure George Soros is NOT one of the ordinary people.

Damned right!!! I am morally and intellectually superior to all the morons who incessantly make false accusations that I, and other white people, are racist, evil and routinely engage in supremacist thought and activity. I don't have those beliefs, I don't have time for it, and I have far better and more enjoyable and productive things to do. In that regard, you can damn well bet I think I am superior to those unjustly pointing the finger.

So what? Every other possible group is encouraged to take pride in itself. Whites are constantly told that they should feel only shame as a group. Fact: most of the world wants to live in majority white country, there’s just not enough of us to give them all the lives they deserve, I guess.

“Russia, Russia, Russia” didn’t work.
“Racist, Racist, Racist” won’t work either.

Foregone conclusion anyone?

So, if you're white, everything you did was wrong and if you did nothing you were complicit.

The more they say this, the less impact it has, so I hope they keep saying it.

Repeating the mendacity that the response by President Trump was “tepid” covers up the fact that all the factions present at Charlottesville were, in fact, just various flavors of left-wing “command and control” ideologies, battling each other, and there were no “right-wing” participants to be found. The “many sides”, which included the BLM and the Antifas, all looked to some form of either national socialism or international globalist socialism as their inspiration.

Only side of this “command and control” mentality that went missing was radical Islam.

Someone once asked Abraham Lincoln, if you called a dog’s tail a leg, how many legs would a dog have then?

His reply, “Four. Calling a dog’s tail a leg, still doesn’t make it a leg.”

Calling a Neo-Nazi or a KKK member “right-wing” doesn’t make them a part of the right wing.

And “white supremacy”, what is it? I do not know, and no conservative or libertarian knows either.

Anybody who so chooses to be “supreme” has totally bought into some “command and control” scheme, it matters not the color of skin or the “true path” to enlightenment they may have chosen.

I’m not normally the kind of person who speaks like this.

But...

Fork you, CNN, preferably in the eyeballs.

Well, that explains it. Affirmative action hire, incompetent, privileged, free college tuition, preference in hiring over Whites, and hates Whites.

Black people better start realizing the race card they keep throwing out there is not being accepted as widely as before. I predict in 2020 the Democrats will get a record low percentage of the white vote, and every midwestern state except Illinois will vote for Trump. Even in that state the vote will be closer than usual. More and more whites are getting fed up with being continually blamed for black America’s problems and being called racists for no reason.

Remember that “exodus”? LOL . . . And remember when they listed their choices that were ALL WHITE MAJORITY countries?
