Worldwide, you are not the majority. Just a matter of time before that becomes the case in America.

Epic Lulz @ this thread. Seriously, being white is no different than being Black, or spainish or whatever. It doesn't make you better (*cough*OP*cough*) nor does it make you the personification of evil (*cough*Alexus*cough*).

IMHO, White Guilt and White Supremecy are two polar sides of the same coin, which is White exceptionalism. One believes whites deserve to have special privilages (Supremecy) and the other seeks to self destruct themselves (Guilt). Both however are built on the concept that having a low-amount of meletan somehow gives you more impact in the world.

Unlike the OP, I find little difference between someone like Rev Wright or David Duke. Both ideologies (Guilt & Supremecy) are founded about the notion of "Whiteness" being more special than "Blackness" or "Tanness".


I don't believe in such a thing as "Whiteness". I do believe in "Europeans" or "Blondes" but I don't believe whiteness can even really be quantitfied. Is Eminem really "White"???

David Duke and Jerimiah Wright are total opposites. They are separated by a distance that can only be measured in terms of light years. One is a racist and the other is a Liberation theologian.

Given the choice we had:

1) Obama -- anti-White
2) McCain -- not anti-White per se (but definitely interested in pandering to other groups)
Let's start from the top:

why do you believe Obama is anti-white? You haven't given anything solid to back up your claim. (please don't say the people he put on his staff b/c Biden just so happens to be white and he's VP)

As far as choices are concerned, you can't throw opinions and logic in the same bucket, that's like me saying:

Subway -- bad
Quiznos -- good

therefore, Quiznos is the 'logical' choice...

In response to your statement that I've bolded: if whites in America did not favor Obama he would not have been elected...plain and simple

So, that leads me to conclude that a sizable portion of whites do not think that Obama is 'hostile to their race' as you put it.

And as far as the wars are concerned, I believe they were pro-OIL before they were pro-Israel.

The McCain camp could've told his supporters that Obama was a martian and they would've bought it.

Even that one cute little old lady saying she didn't trust Obama b/c *gasp* he's an 'Arab'. Not 'terrorist'...an 'Arab'.

then the McCain camp trying their best to key Obama with Bill Ayers. Obama was younger than my father when Bill Ayers did his deeds.

But hey, nothing like waging an attack campaign when one can't compete on economic issues.

I think everyone should be able to voice their opinions... I do however think there should be restrictions on how many threads we can start, and by whom.
You've managed to flood the board and not discuss real issues, rather than just create playground style tit for tat.

quit being a tool

Well duh, I'm white too and couldn't care less... maybe because I am also Jewish, I have a little more perspective on the issue, but really? Maybe it's time for the "white" (whatever that means) people to become a minority, so they can a taste of their own medicine.
