You are more optimistic than I. My guess is honestly half of the first question.

The fear of a loss of power and the social identity of superiority are two possible reasons. It is wild that these laws are to avoid white discomfort, but think about what that really says. Discomfort is too much. Not being assaulted or killed for being a person of color, not having to see as laws are made to limit…

So to the grey who felt the need to respond: The fact that you cannot tell the difference between “whiteness” and “white people”, that’s whiteness honestly. You felt the need to talk about something I already knew (btw you have no idea what I study either) but you (and I mean YOU) felt the need lump all white people…

Always needs to be said: just like in the greys on this page, whiteness just cannot stop itself. Though to be fair it was never really trying.

You hit the nail on the head so hard it passed through a couple hundred feet of ground.

Yep. Pretty much hit the nail on the head.

You’re right. It does seem to be a theme.

Wow though really put this in perspective. He gave these parents the option to not learn about Black history that was being taught all of only TWO F***ING WEEKS of class. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised. It is the same way we (sometimes) handle sex education. Like damn, two weeks. Not even the whole damn class time…

“I think he was saying it because it got a rise out of people,” Arie said. “That’s why he would say it. He knew that it was inappropriate, and I think the fact that he did it repeatedly and was conscious and knew, I think that is being racist.”

Remember, this is a country that always questions Black competency (Fisher v Texas and a list of other cases honestly) to maintain white mediocrity.

Probably. It is more than likely a theme. They do seem to run in the same circles.

I have to wonder if they even see their children as actual people sometimes and not just objects to filter their insecurities through. 

Whiteness showed itself hard in the greys.

So, who had invocation of “reverse racism” on their bingo card? Also, who had “use of the bible to avoid conversations on racism in some form” on their card? Two more and I hit bingo early this year. Whiteness truly never takes a break. 

I absolutely hate that rather than admit they’re homophobic, these people hide behind the ignorant and cowardly shield of being unable to talk to or relate meaningfully to their own children.

Running out of ways to say thhhhhaaaattt’s whiteness. Anyone have some new ways to say it?

I hope you are proud of that one because you should be. Good job.

The colorblind racist, turtle-like creature from the state of Kentucky may want to stop talking for a while. Also as a heads up, if you had to keep doing what is essentially the “I have a Black friend” thing in politics by saying “look at all those things I did” (supposedly in some cases) without having real…

So how strongly do these people identify as white and Christian? Because I promise you, both are at play in what is happening here and what we have been seeing for generations.

We are getting closer and closer to hitting critical mass for sheer caucasity.
