So according to right wingers on this thread, Black college students are ghetto if they mention 2nd amendment rights. Black people need to be productive like everyone else. White Pride is good. The Black Panthers are terrorizing White kids on college campuses.

What's wrong with white pride? Is it more or less wrong than black pride?

The Nazi's were into that "white pride" thing ya know. Those who are into it today are cousins of the Nazi's, if you still are confused, I'd suggest you Google the word "Neo Nazi" and see if it answers your question.

God you libs are dense. So I guess if you share a single belief with any person in history, that makes you agree with them on everything? Give it up.

You are making that connection, not me. He asked what was wrong with white pride, I told him what the perception is. Is there some other brand of white pride you subscribe to? Perhaps a less racist and virulent strain of nationalism and ethnocentric belief?

Do you support White Pride or White Power?

No. You said nothing about perceptions. He asked you what was wrong with it and you responded with information about Nazis. I don't subscribe to any of it, I think it's stupid.

Please point me to one post in this thread where I mentioned "white power." If you can't, why are you bringing it up? And personally? I don't give a damn about either, but to say pride necessarily equals racism is stupid. My only issue is the blatant double standards.

Like this?

Weren't you the one that identified "White Pride" with .. Nazism?

Read the Last sentence!

Quote:
Like the pro-communist liberation theology that swept Central America in the 1980s and was repeatedly condemned by Pope John Paul II, Black Liberation Theology combines warmed-over 1960s vintage Marxism with carefully distorted biblical passages. However, in contrast to traditional Marxism, it emphasizes race rather than class. The Christian notion of “salvation” in the afterlife is superseded by “liberation” on earth, courtesy of the establishment of a socialist utopia.

The leading theorist of Black Liberation Theology is James Cone. Overtly racist, Cone’s writings posit a black Jesus who leads African-Americans as the “chosen people.” In Cone’s cosmology, whites are “the devil,” and “all white men are responsible for white oppression.” Cone makes this point without ambiguity: “This country was founded for whites and everything that has happened in it has emerged from the white perspective,” Cone has written. “What we need is the destruction of whiteness, which is the source of human misery in the world.”

If whiteness stands for all that is evil, blackness symbolizes all that is good. “Black theology,” says Cone, “refuses to accept a God who is not identified totally with the goals of the black community. If God is not for us and against white people, then he is a murderer, and we had better kill him. The task of black theology is to kill Gods who do not belong to the black community ... Black theology will accept only the love of God which participates in the destruction of the white enemy. What we need is the divine love as expressed in Black Power, which is the power of black people to destroy their oppressors here and now by any means at their disposal. Unless God is participating in this holy activity, we must reject his love.” Small wonder that some critics have condemned black liberation theology as “racist idolatry” and “Afro-Nazism.”

It should be NO pride.

It's foolish to have pride for something you didn't do or can't control (i.e., RACE).
