I think the issue is that the effect that slavery along with the bigotry/racism that so many whites had for blacks for at least a couple of centuries. Many blacks are still suffering from this, although not to the degree they did in the past. If you look at the percentage of people in poverty by skin color/race/ancestry, a black person is more than twice as likely to be poor than a white person.

However, things ARE improving; and I think that if a healthy and intelligent person is poor these days, it is more likely due to poor choices, upbringing, and/or economic conditions than it is to the color of his or her skin. Otherwise, how could it be that many thousands of black families are in a higher socioeconomic class than many thousands of white families?

‘It’s Okay To Be White’ Signs Pop Up In Fort Worth Neighborhood
It's ok to be white. It's ok to be black, its ok to be gay. It's ok to be human. Cultural Marxist needs to stop this anti-white rhetoric.

While I agree that it's NOT okay to be white- according to the PC agenda- why post signs? That's just provocation.

For the record, it's a 4chan troll. And why post the signs? To point out the blatant hypocrisy. I'd say they've succeeded quite well in pointing out the hypocrisy. What are the objectors/complainers going to counter with? It's NOT okay to be white?

Why are lefties the only ones allowed to provoke? White people are constantly being attacked in the media and mocked and a few can't even speak to defend that they think they are not the devil.

It's not "just" a troll. You know the alt right is not along for the ride with the left's idea of identity politics.

The objectors just say White supremacist/Trump Nazis, same as always.
