‘It’s Okay To Be White’ signs provoke hysterical amount of concern in Ft. Worth

I have a new theory that goes something like this.

White people seem to have self-hate as part of their DNA. It fits in with so much of History.

I'll have to research more for a book, but everything I have read about history seems to indicate that it's been a "thing" for thousands of years. Self-hate, as we know, always turns into hate of others...which, of course, it has throughout the centuries. But at the root, I think, is self-hate.

I have zero guilt...for history...as a person of Italian and Ukranian heritage. None.

That doesn't mean don't learn a lot from reading and talking to others.

Of course, I would NEVER take credit (even a little) for the accomplishments of others. Those who do things like that (or the opposite, put down the lack of) are usually not accomplished themselves. So they have to position themselves as if they are responsible for the Modern World...even if their only accomplishment was selling cars and copying machines.
