Billionaire auto loans magnate Donald Foss died of cancer in August, aged 78
He was named on the 2022 Forbes Billionaires list. At the time of his death, his wealth was valued at $2 billion
Twice-married with three children, he founded the subprime car finance company Credit Acceptance in 1972 and stood down as CEO in 2017
His youngest daughter Samantha, 19, who uses they/them pronouns and is a self-described 'black supremacist', launched into a vicious tirade during her eulogy at his funeral
During the excoriating tirade, Samantha described their father as a 'racist, misogynistic, xenophobic Trump-loving, cis-straight white man'
They posted the footage on social media, where it has racked up nearly 2 million views and has since bragged about it online
Samantha attends the private $57,350-a-year. Oglethorpe College in Brookhaven, Georgia, and grew up at the family's $7.3million home in Franklin, Michigan

Thomas Sowell and the other conservatives helped me raise my kids to be successful.
It can be problematic and you know that probably and it’s not simply from assholes
It’s just complicated
It also depends where u live
Whitelandia is easier in my mind as a place to deal with it
Kids need parents and your adopted are blessed
The example I have in my extended family was to make a point by my Kumbaya relatives they are rich
And it’s been problematic
And it’s where blacks torment them
It’s pitiable to be honest
Kids need homes but as you know good intentions may not guarantee outcome
Even in birth kids
Adoption is good bad and ugly I’m not sure the stats but my family experience is mixed
I also learned something else
You are a lot of what you are by heredity
Humanist hate that except for gays
I’m ambivalent
Glad it worked for your family
Thank you for your measured response Wardaddy.
I knew there would be some issues. Living in “whitelandia” made some things easier. Except those pesky lesbians lol. The kids do well here. People are people and every one has an opinion. They were not everyone’s cup of tea. But who is.
They were taught not to melt over certain words. But to use that information to make a choice about the people uttering them.
The racism of low expectations was a bigger problem coupled with people who were over the top because of their twisted sense of affirmative action. Had to get them out of those environments fast.
I think they are doing better than they would otherwise. The culture they were raised in was the first truly inclusive one of western civilization. Christianity.
Hereditary means a lot. I see it in all four.
My kids spend time with with other white identified blacks occasionally. American blacks don’t enter in the picture much. One kid had the southern college attended practically fore her into their black social group. She lasted about ten minutes. They didn’t fit.
Otoh she ended up engaged to her white roommate’s wealthy neighbor at the end of her time there.
That was almost 15 years ago. The world is more twisted today
Thanks for having the stones to talk about this - I have always been a nature/genes more than nurture kind of guy based on life experience and my own family of origin. Too many well meaning Christians believe that human beings are a “blank slate” and that good upbringing can compensate fully for genetic family of origin issues.
Back in the old country, Jews and Gypsies were considered separate “races” but here in the USA they are white as a Swede.
The cancer of liberalism frequently makes me line for the pre-capitalist west but that genie isn't getting back in the bottle and most of us would suffer under feudalism 😂
Western culture is “white” culture - hurts for some to hear but that’s the true truth.
but that genie isn’t getting back in the bottle

It is. Cultural collapse will cause political collapse.
That’s as dumb as saying... “Do you think whites don’t commit crimes?”
It’s a question of numbers. I would bet that, proportionately, adopted black kids resent their white “parents” much more than adopted white kids. Also there are many more sensitive issues that come up with such mixed families.
Here’s a black adopted girl detailing her feelings of having been brought up in a loving white family. The resentments, the sense of not belonging, the sense of not being understood, of being “foreign” comes through vividly. She never really bonded with the white parents, though she was grateful at an intellectual level.
I’m quite sure that those are feelings shared by many in her situation...and sometimes the resentment blows up.
The feelings she felt were mostly due to the different racial identities, something that would be absent from white kids adopted by white parents, thus resulting in fewer such incidents.
Do you agree?
“see “Hispanic” as a case in point”
See post #116.
I know. The brand takes long time to die. Also it is easier to succeed if the system is rigged
Absolutely it is white culture and whites are letting it die.
We would have no more classical music if ot for Asians.
Wow.
Well... Other people here accused you of seeing yourself as a white savior, and you just admitted they were right.
My life experience has been that “white” people are not a monolith. I grew up in a part of the country where ethnic groups lived in separate neighborhoods, and we didn’t like each other. Our ancestors came here speaking different languages, and our food, customs, and beliefs were different. Our cultures were different.
But, I suppose that, if your background is mixed with many different European ethnicities, you just call yourself “white”? And then you say there’s a “white culture”? *SHRUG* LOL
Yep, the culture appropriator nerds from a radically different civilization do love their Beethoven. 😂
With a childhood riddled with such suffering I can see why she's 'down with the struggle'... /s
Well there are few whites who do.
She wasn’t adopted. The man was her biological father, married to her mother who is black.
Of course, issues surrounding race can happen in a “mixed” family.
But, listen to the words she used. She called him “cisgender” and straight. She uses “they/them” as her pronouns. She has more issues than just race. If she were white as white can be, she still would’ve given a horrible speech criticizing her father at his funeral. Because that’s just the type of person she is.
You are correct that the multitude of European tribes that peopled the US provided individual cultural experiences and in some section of the country that still may hold true. I certainly don’t see myself as anyone’s savior. Ever.
However when discussing evolving different factions in the US and racial differences I did use the shorthand of calling that cultural melange white.
And I do think that the Christian faith has been the single most cohesive force in western civilization and it was useful for the children.
“She wasn’t adopted. The man was her biological father, married to her mother who is black.”
Yes I know that, I was responding to someone who had adopted black kids.
“But, listen to the words she used. She called him “cisgender” and straight. She uses “they/them” as her pronouns. She has more issues than just race.”
Yes, we agree on that. Perhaps her biggest problem was her parents who paid tens of thousands of dollars a year to send her to a private, woke, indoctrination camp.
I’m sure they must have known the hate they were filling her with. Maybe he got what he paid for.
Glad it worked out for you and the kids.
