Not even remotely true.



"white Genocide" is steeped in racism, and your defense if the idea can only make one question your comprehension of the subject, as in you have no comprehension whatsoever.

And it's painfully clear.

Your morally and intellectually bankrupt defense of the idea of "White Genocide" is painful.

I'm wringing nothing there bud.

I have a firm understanding of what "White Genocide" is and where it came from.

You, clearly do not.

But when you're the kind of person who thinks Apartheid was better for South Africa, you could be that misguided.

Show me an example of a group organized around "White Pride" that hasn't.

Here's the issue: we recognize that whites who divide the world into races and want to advantage or celebrate their own are acting racially. We refuse to recognize this with others.



Until recently no major part of the culture singled out whites for anything other than to juxtapose them against challenges from minorities (the Democrats used to accuse the Republican Platform of being "The Negro Platform" v "The White Man's Platform", for example). "White", because it was numerically dominant, was less of a division than religion, nationality of origin, etc. And racist attitudes against whites have probably fueled a lot of the recent White Pride backlash, sure. Tell someone in modern America that their race, gender, and sexual orientation means that their opinion is worthless, and you'll be lambasted... unless its a white straight cis-male... :shrug: that's gonna piss off the straight white cis-males , and if your reaction to that is some variant of "well, they've oppressed others, so I guess they should have expected it", then you're no better than the guy who watches a video of cops beating a black man who was actually nonthreatening and thinks "well, they're thugs, so hopefully it teaches them a lesson". Minority groups and much of the left wing spent decades arguing that we shouldn't judge people by their identity, but rather by the individual, until they had enough cultural power to begin denigrating The Other, and then suddenly it was okay, because their identity made them morally suspect and lesser, and they needed to Check the Privilege of being the only identity you can mock or attack without being a racist/sexist/whatever-phobic/etc. In reality, however, there's no fundamental difference between complaints of white people oppressing us and Trump ranting about rapist Mexicans.


Er. Take the above rant as sort of generic, rather than aimed entirely specifically at you.

Here is the conundrum - There ARE groups that are centered around Irish heritage, Scottish heritage, Polish heritage, French heritage, etc, etc, etc. For example, I happen to be a member of the Elliott Clan Society, which is based on my Scottish heritage which dates back to the year 1100. My ancestors eventually came to America by way of Ireland where they lived for 2 generations. However, blacks in America are unable to have any groups centered around Ethiopian heritage, Congolese heritage, Egyptian heritage, etc, etc, etc, because their heritage was ripped from them when their ancestors were kidnapped and sent to America as slaves. So, in America, there is Black heritage, which centers around Africa itself. And the so-called White heritage is only a racist response to it. After all, Scotland, England, France, and all other "white" nations have fought each other for centuries, and still have issues with each other even today. Were France and Germany, for example, hugging each other in celebration of "whiteness" in 1942? Nope. They were killing each other. I am sure that black nations were killing each other before too, and are still killing each other today, but black Americans are unable to relate to it and pick a side because they truly do not know where in Africa they come from. That knowledge was stolen from them when their ancestors were kidnapped. So I can easily accept the notion of "Black pride" without accepting the notion of "White pride" as legitimate because it is plain and simple that the notion of "White pride" would never have existed without somebody to hate in the first place.

I now put on my flameproof suit. Have at it.
