SPLC Tracks Declining White Percentage

You mean you actually want a high trust community? EVILLLLLLLLL.

Your trust graph means nothing, it is just a diversion from you.

You want to blame everyone that isn't as white as you for all the problems you have had in your life.

Boo hoo

It got dissolved by Napoleon. As a government it lasted nearly 900 years. Sounds pretty good to me.

And it was an ineffectual joke for at least half of that time. It wasn't a "country" in any real sense of the term. Being like it in any way would basically wreck the country.

On what basis? Substantiate these baseless claims.

A continuous government for 900 years is a wreck. Okay then.

The times they are a changing!

I live in a large multi-cultural city, and always have. I enjoy the excitement of cultural differences in food and people, and absolutely loved cross-cultural dating.

In fact, I always believed:

"If you want to know another culture - date them!

(And I did, whenever I could!)

So this decrease in Caucasian-Americans bothers me not in the least. Skin colour and ethnicity never meant much to me, to begin with.

I'm with you. I honestly don't give a crap if the entire population of the world woke up one day and 'boom', we're all different shades of brown. It would sure make racial discrimination extinct fast. Everyone's hatred towards someone with dark skin wouldn't have a basis any longer. Maybe that's precisely where mankind is heading into the future and thank God for that.

“The empire never achieved the extent of political unification as was formed to the west in France, evolving instead into a decentralized, limited elective monarchy composed of hundreds of sub-units: kingdoms, principalities, duchies, counties, prince-bishoprics, Free Imperial Cities, and other domains.[6][15] The power of the emperor was limited, and while the various princes, lords, bishops, and cities of the empire were vassals who owed the emperor their allegiance, they also possessed an extent of privileges that gave them de facto independence within their territories”

The "constitution" of the Empire still remained largely unsettled at the beginning of the 15th century. Although some procedures and institutions had been fixed, for example by the Golden Bull of 1356, the rules of how the king, the electors, and the other dukes should cooperate in the Empire much depended on the personality of the respective king. It therefore proved somewhat damaging that Sigismund of Luxemburg (king 1410, emperor 1433–1437) and Frederick III of Habsburg (king 1440, emperor 1452–1493) neglected the old core lands of the empire and mostly resided in their own lands. Without the presence of the king, the old institution of the Hoftag, the assembly of the realm's leading men, deteriorated. The Imperial Diet as a legislative organ of the Empire did not exist at that time. The dukes often conducted feuds against each other – feuds that, more often than not, escalated into local wars.”

Yet it lasted for 900 years. What here am I supposed to be shocked by? Do you think there was no internal strife in France?

You know that's not true. You know racism is so much more than an individual talking crap.

If racism is simply an individual talking crap, we never have to address structural racism because everyone becomes a little bit racist. Flawless logic.

Market of ideas!

When it's a white guy, it's "a little crap talk never hurt anyone". When it's a black guy, it's "racism". Racists are backwards.

Mark Potok, a senior fellow at the SPLC, has a note posted in his office tracking the non-Hispanic white percentage of the US population by year.

That's a little curious. Does anyone want to comment on this?

They're some numbers written on a piece of paper. Are you saying you read his mind, and you know what he was thinking when he wrote those numbers?

Keeping track of a specific population number is racist. That's why the census needs to die. We don't need a census to tell us there are fewer whites every year. It'll make people question why our institutions are primarily represented by rich white elites.

That what you want?

It means my local cuisine choices have never been better!

Sounds pretty racist.

Racial bias is a real thing. Race based differences based on genetics are not. Environment might have some impact, diet for example, most specifically famine. But its a little hard to make that case from here when we are in the throes of being utterly unwilling to deal with human impact on Climate Change even in the face of drought induced famine and the dislocation it causes around the world. Not to mention the fact that at this rate people in Toledo are going to have beachfront property soon enough. They will be beachfront on one side and backed up by the swollen Mississippi River on the other. But I digress.

There is no race basis for US Citizenship much to the chagrin of some but not all White people in this country.

The only people "alarmed" by the decline in the percentage of Whites in the US citizenry are some Whites. I'm White and it is simply not an issue for me. Diversity has been one of the great advantages for the United States in spite of the utterly ridiculous and absurd contention again by SOME WHITES that this is not the case.

Had we not "enslaved" some non-whites as their entry point into this country and committed genocide on others almost eradicating them more of us Whites might have gotten used to the idea that there is nothing to fear in Diversity and would not have engaged in these fits and starts of cultural preemptive strikes against non-Whites catalyzed by populist, celebrity demagogues. Enter DonDon.

Would it bother you if the NRA kept track of the Muslim population of the US?

That's kind of dumb question, wouldn't you agree?

Population statistics are hardly racist, phattonez. Anyone can reference any number of credible sources to "keep track" of a given population.

I wouldn't be considered an equal in China, or in any African country. And I'm okay with that. Those people have their homelands. Why can't I have my own?

That's quite a statement...an ugly combination of white grievance and white entitlement...a shocking display of ignorance and bigotry.

Congrats, I suppose.:roll:

But if you want a country of your own, you're on the wrong continent. America is not for you. I suspect there are several Scandinavan countries that might welcome you. But I suggest that you try Russia, which is just about the only place where white nationalism is embraced by the population and embedded within the government.

It's funny how much white conservatives today seem to have in common with Russian "values", isn't it?
