We've been played for fools for far too long and are rapidly running out of patience.
When you run out of patience, what happens ?
It's too late and the author of the article is too optimistic. Look around you. From a major 'accceptable' political party to the best sellers list to the educational system to major corporations to mass media, there's support or tolerance for the ideology that whiteness is a construct to oppress others and must be 'deconstructed.'

It does not take a majority to prevail... but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men. Samuel Adams
We don't need a majority, in fact having a minority will make us fight even harder.

It's never too late
The damage is going to be undone the same way it was done....and it will take years. The important thing is that we can feel the momentum changing, as we have since the seismic event on November 8th, 2016.
The push back has already started, with people painting over BLM murals (which, by the way, have NO PLACE on a public street). Of course, the craven "leaders" of liberal-land are making martyrs out of these people by arresting them and punishing them, when they were falling all over themselves to graffiti-up the public streets with Black Lives Matter and Defund the Police. Don't think that we don't notice the hypocrisy and the double standards at work here. And don't think that we aren't sick and tired of being blamed for all of society's ills, especially since our own eyes are telling us differently.
Poke the bear long enough, and eventually he will respond. And what then? Honestly, it scares me. I don't want a race war, or a civil war, or any other kind of war. And yet, certain segments of our society (I call them "leftists") are doing everything they can to provoke just that. If a full-blown war were to erupt, the results would be horrific for my side -- and absolutely appallingly devastating for the other side. I truly hope that calmer heads will prevail and we can all take a few steps back from the looming abyss.
I don't think it's a matter of patience. What runs out is the fear of the state, who right now operates on behalf of the initiators of force and in opposition to their victims.
By that mean the government gives the rioter/looter all manner of leeway to cause harm and destruction as they see fit, and cracks down hard on anyone choosing to handle their own self-defense according to the rules of individualism and basic common sense. And right now, people fear the government's reprisal more than they fear the antics of a bunch of milquetoast latte addicts with too much pee & vinegar in their veins. If the knucklehead rioters/looters don't settle down and actually grow emboldened, what will happen next is that people will fear the actions of those knuckleheads more than they fear some administrative punishment by Leviathan, and they will opt for self-defense according to their own standards.
When/if that happens, rioters/looters are going to wind up dead as hell, and it will be a shame only for this reason - they were coddled into thinking they were bulletproof and immune from reprisal. Shame on the coddlers and enablers of this foolishness.
My fervent hope is that the knucklehead contingent grows bored & apathetic and just walks away from their nonsense before anything like that occurs to any real degree. I'd rather stupid people just got smarter instead of getting dead. Either way improves the collective IQ, sure, but learning is a way more preferable cure than death.
You have the right to hold whatever opinion you wish about the Confederate flag and those who fly it. But you do NOT have any right to tell other people what they may choose to believe for themselves.
I never said those persons don't have freedom of speech. You're entitled to freedom of speech. However, that does not negate FACTS. Facts matter to me more than someone's opinion.
Alt Right. lol. Everything you disagree with is immediately called Alt Right then Proud Boys, etc. How about common sense? This makes sense.
Too bad, so sad. You disagree so everyone else os Racist. Well, we are NOT.
Proud Boys are racists, if you won't admit it you're lying or extraordinarily naive. The Alt Right embraces racism. If you're down with that, then admit it don't try to claim it's something other than what it is.
It's everything on down to traffic violations. Even after controlling for other factors.
