Do you fear becoming a minority?

Thanks for confirming what I said above.

Boise:

89% white
3.2% asian
1.5% black


Now, please tell us how we're all afraid of non-whites and don't want to live with them.

So he lives in Boise because it's 89% white (and of course you could prove that)? Or he's intentionally keeping non-whites out of Boise - or someone else is doing it (and you can prove all of that, too)?

I believe the op was asking white Trump supporters, though I saw no indication that he wouldn't welcome anyone else's comments. I am white but not a Trump supporter.

This OP is about race. It's important to know where everyone stands.

So, what's your race? seriously, we need a baseline here.

That's the most flamboyant racism I've seen in some time.

I would hate to talk about race in this country without taking into account the race of those I was debating.

So, do fear being a minority in your country?

You are entitled to your own own opinion. Discussion of this sort normally devolve into whites dying out and how the Democratic Party will come to dominate American politics.

I'd like to short circuit that discussions and better understand where the participants of this discussion stand.

So, what is your race?

Where do you live? What is the demography of your "region, state, city, county?"

The demography is mostly white.
 
Dutch said:
I can see from your response you're not of my subculture. Would you care to identify your culture/subculture then?

The not-crazy subculture. We're boring but we don't go spamming personal questions about race on the internet. As if people can't lie.

Assuming you are referring to completely opening the southern border and abolishing ICE, no I do not.

"...She said she has been called a racist and a bigot. Asked whether she believes she is, Knowlton, who is white, responded adamantly, “No, because I don’t want to live amongst them..."

"...Her vote for Trump rests in something deeper than policies or proposals. For her, he is her champion, the champion of all of white America... ... “I want my country back,” she said..."


"...data shows that as minorities move into suburbs, white families are making small and personal decisions that add velocity to the momentum... ...They are increasingly choosing to self-segregate into racially isolated communities..." "...So as the country diversifies, white Americans are increasingly choosing to live among each other..."


"...his [Trump] blathering noise is all over the place. The unspoken signal is crystal clear: keep America white.

"...this explains why evangelicals were willing to vote for a man who so clearly did not live by their values – as he promised to keep them dominant..."


This explains why The Cult loves the idea of a wall. They don't care if it's not very effective, it's a symbolic manifestation of their fear of becoming a minority.

I've heard that whites will become a minority somewhere between 2044 and 2050. Given this known trend, how will whites react when 2044 approaches? Will 'white flight' rapidly accelerate? Will they become even more radical, wiling to vote for a Repub politician who's racism is even more overt than Trump's?

So I'm curious about Trump supporters here, How many feel some anxiety, but not panic? How many who fear this trend to the point of personally acting to stop it? And hopw far will they go, or more to the point, how low will they go trying to hang onto their dominance?

Then you should object to the OP. Why are you on this thread then?

I frequently have doubts about what people tell me but internet forums don't work unless you give them some credence.

Do you support the concept of sanctuary cities or states?

Maybe you shouldn't base your experience on personal stuff. Debate based on the merits of claims and evidence. You know, don't be a ****ing crazy person.

Not on principle, though I am very sympathetic to Dreamers and those whose ONLY crime is illegal entry. I support expedited citizenship for these people. If they refuse to comply, then they can be deported. I support expedited citizenship for immigrants in general, and especially for asylum seekers.

How can I carry on a discussion about race without knowing the race and culture/subculture of the person I'm debating? That isn't "personal experience" it's having a level playing field.

Ok, you don't have a problem with whites becoming a minority some time in the future. Fine. How do you feel about the loss of the Judeo Western European culture you and I share?

But it is silly.

No.

Not feeling any guilt at all!

I, unlike our idiot president, have no reason to feel guilty.

Oh really?

Liberals love telling everyone we need to get rid of our cars and take a train, how we set our thermostats, how large of a Coke we can drink, attack free speech, attack conservative black people, arm the EPA better than some military outfits, use the IRS as a weapon against conservative groups.

What a BS partisan crock post.

Show me, a LIBERAL, where I have done any of those things you accuse me of doing?

Thanks!

I spent years discussing/debating race in graduate school. Personal info was always irrelevant. Try debating with facts instead of opinions.
 
Dutch said:
So, what are your thoughts on the U.S. "possibly" becoming a minority majority nation sometime in the future?
Click to expand...

I am in favor of this. I believe a nation of many different cultures living in close proximity breeds superior citizens than a nation dominated solely by a single rigid culture. Avoiding interaction with other cultures is the cultural equivalent of inbreeding. The people of those cultures grow less and learn less. They lose the ability to adapt.

Weaknesses are cultivated in monolithic cultures. Strengths are cultivated in melting-pot cultures.
