Why was the white race(anglo saxon) so successful?

[4dognight]

Opportunity offered, opportunity taken.

Can do and will do attitudes.

Many whites have it.

Many people of color have it.

Some will succeed in spite of challenges.

Some will give up before succeeding.

Being convinced that one is a victim can dampen enthusiasm if allowed to.

Some refuse to believe that they are victims and overcome to become can doers and will doers.

Of every race.

Yes, generally when you are "debating," you should cite your sources. Kathryn (who is white, BTW) was very polite in asking.

The editor of "The Root" is Henry Louis Gates Jr., who is a professor at Harvard. Not that that gives him any legitimacy at all, I guess. (You can DISAGREE with some of what he writes without suggesting that he is a black nationalist anti-white racist.)

Gates is a decent man, and very good scholar. I don't agree with all of his hiring choices though. Next, don't accuse me of calling Gates an anti-white racist. I don't think Gates is a racist at all. However, some of the people he employs obvious are. Take this article for example. I won't quote the whole article because of copyright, but I will quote some parts of it and you tell me if you think this is not racist against white people:
Broke Becky, Pap Smears and Why I’m Afraid of White Women

But if there is such a thing as “being on” Obamacare, Lahren is on it.

There is nothing wrong with being on Obamacare. It is not for poor people. Before the ACA, it was hard for entrepreneurs, college students and people who worked part time to get medical insurance. Lahren is exactly who Obamacare was created for. Every time Broke Becky (I bet she collects unemployment, too) gets her Pap smear, she has the black president to thank, except she has spent her entire professional career standing in front of a white lynch mob and pointing her finger, trying to kill Obamacare.
That’s why I’m afraid of white women.

They will ask you to don a pink hat and march with them. They will readily paint themselves as allies, or as fellow oppressed people. They will convince you that they are in your corner. They will show you how white feminism intersects with racism. They will explain how white male patriarchy has always been the problem.

Then they will slide behind the voting curtain and pull the lever for Donald Trump. They will call the police because you looked like you didn’t belong there. They will say you raped them because they missed their curfew. They will stand and watch men tie your baby boy to a cotton gin fan and toss him in the river. They will keep their lies a secret for 50 years.

That level of duplicitous evil is scarier than any horror movie or demon story could ever inspire. I’m not saying all white women are like this, but it is demonstrably true that any white woman could do this. At least a few of them have. We saw 53 percent of them do it.

Karen, I never would have guessed you posted at Stormfront.


In the future, please don't characterize my posts. Either address what I've said or don't respond at all but don't accuse me without evidence of peddling in subliminal racism or saying things about Gates or someone who isn't even mentioned in the text of my post.

So much for your high IQ theory.

Not every subset of white people have high IQ. You are twisting my words.

Karen must be one of them. Evidently she reads there or how else would she know if a comment is something that would be posted on Stormfront or not. On it's face, it implies that at the least she reads there, if not posts on it too.
