As a white man, I recognize that in todays PC climate, it is NOT okay to be white. However, what can I do about it- it's the hand I was dealt!

The liberals can better answer your question than I can. Why is it dangerous to wear "Make America Great" apparel? People do get assaulted for that. Liberals don't want a free country, unless you agree with them!

Why? Because that is the PC culture in which we live. Life is not fair.

reaction in NJ makes fort worth look relatively sane:

'It's okay to be white' fliers at N.J. college called 'abhorrent and cowardly act'

Quote:
"The idea was to create a flier that had an (ostensibly) inoffensive phrase on it that would nevertheless be treated as racist by people who viewed it, particularly liberals or members of the media," the ADL said in a November 2017 report. "Their subsequent 'overreactions' would in turn ostensibly make those people lose credibility in the eyes of others and seem like hypocrites."
'ostensibly', my white ass

True. They ARE hypocrites.

And the media wonders why Republicans get elected...

I agree that that is the left wing agenda- I was being sarcastic. Color is irrelevant, but I do believe that it's NOT okay to be liberal.

just for the record......


The exact same phrase is appearing in Canada and in the UK. Its not a coincidence.


The message is simple.... Some white people are reacting against years of being told that they are incapable of being anything but overt racists. Racists come in all colours. The posters are a way to state the obvious.

Is it"provocation" when OTHER races say such things?? Nope, they get a pass.
