Younger generations are more anti-White/anti-free speech, but boomers promoted radical individualism which paved the way to where we are now. All generations are flawed and there is no one generation that will come to the rescue.

As it was in the mid/late 70s into the early 80s. As it was in the late 60s into the early 70s with a leavening of Viet Nam thrown in.

About Viet Nam: once LBJ started the troop build-up in 1965 most "good" employers wouldn't hire an 18 year old due to his exposure to the draft. The companies wanted to wait until afterwards so they wouldn't get someone trained and then lose them for two years to the Army.

All correct, but do you think guys like Dave Coe have any idea of what you are talking about?


It is rather obvious that theirs is not a deep thinking generation.

In reality the recession in the early 90s was one of the mildest and shortest that the US has faced. It lasted only eight months.

The saddest part of these "woe is me" threads is that the complainants continue to miss opportunity after opportunity as they levy grievance upon grievance.

Huge fortunes have been and are being made in 2020 and 2021 and now 2022. The markets have grown astronomically. Property values are atmospheric. And if you don't believe in going long, shorts in the crypto market and the other Ponzi schemes have been rewarded richly.

America is an opportunity society. Take advantage of it.

Tweet from wealthy boomer, ex-George Bush staffer, Never Trumper trying to throw younger Whites under the bus.

"For 150 years white Christian men held 99% of power positions in America, for the next 75 years they held 90% of the positions, and today they hold 80% of power positions. White Christian men represent less than 30% of our population. We are way past time fixing this."

As I previously stated, yours is simply not a deep thinking group.

Personally, I cannot be bothered to care. Neither they nor you are my problem.

"California’s Younger Whites are getting squeezed out from both ends; by older White NIMBYs and from the demographic pressure of competing with other groups for jobs and housing."

Poor and working class whites, in particular, face a bleak future in California without enclavism.

Just for the sake of discussion... would these white enclaves be for housing only? Or would they have to include their own grocery stores, shopping centers and businesses providing jobs within the enclave? Would only white enclave inhabitants be allowed to work or shop at such businesses?

How would it work? In your own words please. I don't like giving clicks to Robert Stark.

"Vladimir Putin reminds me of antiquarian BLM theorists like Ibram X. Kendi, Nikole Hannah-Jones, and Ta-Nehisi Coates explaining why, in effect, Gen X and Millennial white people don’t deserve to inherit their Baby Boomer parents’ homes and stocks when the old geezers kick off: EQUITY demands that Ibram and Nikole and Ta-Nehisi get their mitts on the equity of the white Boomers rather than their legal heirs.

We have a system of international property law that’s analogous to domestic property law. Sure, Ukraine is not much of a country, but it qualifies as a country, so expropriating part or all of it is a crime."
