The poster whom you wrote to won't, ever, address any of this with reason and facts. He/she will just give you random tangents and mischaracterize what you wrote, then write as if he's refuted what you've written.

I wonder. This poster is from Kansas City, Missouri. I assume that poster is white.

If this poster is ever victimized due to skin color - whether these practices you described or an actual violent crime perpetrated by a minority person - I wonder what his/her reaction will be, as he/she is a leftist.

It will not be a huge bang-moment in many people's head.....most will just come to realize that humans are hugely divided by race and that fact will not change.

Whites, for the most part, are not going to rise-up against what is going on. If they did, Goonvernment would just smack them down, HARD.

Most Whites will be silent about their demise, many will go along and support the nonsense.

The attacks against Asians in many U.S. cities this year is proof, as is this event, as was the murder of Cannon Hinnant.

What I'm going to write may offend some posters, because I have seen there are plenty of liberals/leftists here who do believe things like critical race theory are good and that's it's all right to demand reparations for slavery and who think only white people can be racist because according to leftist ideology, racism doesn't exist without power and since America is majority whites, whites have power and only whites can be racist.

These ideas are all absolute garbage in my view. I despise critical race theory, I hate communism, I consider Karl Marx a plague upon humanity, I consider cultural Marxism to be trash, and I oppose the left.

I'm also aware that there are, for example, white and Asian liberals as well as black and Hispanic conservatives.

But I'm also aware that much of America - indeed, much of humanity - operates not through cold, calculating reason and thought and thorough, exhaustive, time-consuming research. None of us can stay awake 24 hours doing nothing but reading and studying and researching. We may become experts or specialists in certain subjects, but even that takes time.

Because people often operate by perception, they will not look at all the facts. And with the issue of identity politics and all the race-driven tension in the past few years, race has returned to the forefront.

Think about it. Black, Hispanic, Asian, and even white people can go on TV and talk about "privileged white men" (think about how Brett Kavanaugh was excoriated as such when he was falsely accused of sexual misconduct). Now imagine a white person going on TV and saying something about privileged men who are black or Jewish.

How long would it take for that person to be fired from his or her job?

I've been observing these events for years now.

I've seen all the double-standards, the hypocrisy, the blaming of white people for "privilege" to the extent they were forced to kneel, the guilt-tripping of whites for slavery (even though blacks owned slaves, even though hundreds of thousands of whites died to among other things ensure slavery would end, and even though it was white people - Europeans - who were the FIRST IN THE HISTORY OF HUMANITY to come up with the idea that slavery was wrong and that wealth and firepower were to be used to end it, and even though today there are thousands of African slaves in Africa enslaved by other Africans, but the American left couldn't care less)....

A black boy is shot by a cop, streets are marched on, intersections paralyzed...

A black man is shot by a cop, even though he was a rapist, and people protest for days...

A black man dies due to a fentanyl overdose and BLM and Antifa riot, killing people, injuring people for life, destroying hundreds of black, Hispanic, Korean, Chinese, Arab, etc. owned businesses - and white businesses too... underclass people loot at will and laugh while at it...

But when a white boy is kidnapped and stabbed and left to rot on the street like some dog, where's the outcry? Did Cash's life matter?

I've been watching the news, I've been on many websites, I've been reading editorials and articles and comments and opinions and my ironclad conclusion is that white people in America - many of them - are furious. Outraged. Mad as hell. Bitter.

And some of them have become racist when they weren't racist before. Being told they were guilty of being bad because they were white... why should they just kneel and bow their heads and take it like idiots?

Leftists, you did this. You created racists, you increased the ranks of white nationalist groups, you have increased interest in such groups with your incessant bashing of whites and your hypocritical double standards, and shame on you white leftists especially because you act as defenders of minorities but you only do so when convenient (why do you not protest black crimes against Asians?). And double shame on you because there are many honorable, ethical, hardworking, decent, intelligent, morally upright, and salt-of-the-Earth Americans who are black and Hispanic and Asian who don't agree with your ideology and who are now at greater risk of being victims of actual racist crimes because you've made white people angry.

My bet is paid poster. They are never armed with facts. They just come back with nonsensical trollish replies that have no relation to the subject matter or don't delve in any meaningful way.

How about just actually enforcing immigration laws already on the books?

Or is that asking too much?

Nice rant,

Can you sum up exactly what you're mad at? A lot of reading essentially for a topic that has been discussed ad nauseam. What makes your thread unique from the 100 others on this topic?

Do you as a moderator keep count? If not, not 99, not 101 - 100. How do you know it's 100? Did you throw that number out to devalue the original post?

All sarcasm aside, I wouldn't know. I don't keep tabs on how many threads on this topic have been written.

Did you have this attitude when thread after thread after thread after thread was opened to bash President Trump? Or might it be that your views diverge from mine and you thusly think it's something "that has been discussed ad nauseam?"

Then you have been living with your head in the sand, quite frankly.

One need only think back to Nick Sandmann, the Catholic-school child who was photographed and doing nothing but smiling at a Native American who approached him during a pro-life protest. Sandmann was drawn and quartered across the globe by Twitter blue checkmarks, CNN, MSNBC, and every other proud anti-white news outlet.

Sandmann's crime? Being white.

The scary thing is Sandmann didn't even say anything. They didn't even condemn his words; they condemned his existence.

On the other hand, I live in a city where the most unspeakably barbaric murders are committed daily by blacks, and often at kids--and it is almost never reported on national news outlets. Articles rarely point out the perpetrator's skin color. Blacks so want to be martyrs of white violence that you get bimbos like Jussie Smollett whipping up hoaxes. Read Wilfred Reilly's (who's black) academic work on hoaxes, and just how prevalent it is.

Black violence is one of the worst public health crises the United States has ever seen, but we're not allowed to talk about it openly. But Bret Weinstein, a fmr professor at Evergreen, says segregating whites from blacks at his school is racist and wrong, and the anti-white leftist mob comes for him like Salem circa 1690s.

Wake up.
