You’re still being far too kind!
It’s getting so out of hand, just, plain “white people” period.
One of the most amazing aspects of all this is the seemingly in-quenchable supply of folks who’ve figuratively lived their whole lives in the blistering hot desert, nonetheless telling folks who’ve lived all of their lives in sub-zero ice and snow, what we should feel about living there. Along with nonstop…
Four centuries of nonstop evidence pretty strongly suggest that appealing to their “purely selfish perspective” just might be the only thing left that can potentially penetrate this centuries-old witches spell.
Far and away, the highest social cost is still essentially forbidden to talk about — on both the Left and the Right. Even in the year 2020. Vastly declining “quality of life” statistics for white people themselves! The entrenched institutions of white supremacy are now decimating more white overall white lives than…
PREACH!!!
Mine was “...the bare minimum...”.
How many of the kind of people who would suggest such a thing inspired MLK to write his “Letter From the Birmingham Jail” almost two entire generations ago? (And yet moderates are somehow STILL suggesting it, like it’s something new and revolutionary!)
Plus, odds are a tiny bit better that your “strategy” won’t end up (conveniently) taking another 400 years like his (and ALL other white “strategies” to this point) almost certainly will.
Not just for standing up...
Damn! I was under the impression that jail was strictly reserved for people reporting whites for racism!
FTW!!!
Bingo!!!
At this very late stage, the saddest aspect of it probably involves us. Because literally every possible second of American history since whiteness was institutionalized 350-odd years ago has been predicated on one, single thing. Full-on and indisputable SADISM toward all POC. Based on the supposed “legal” designation…
Technically, if we’re gonna apply that standard, then after five unbroken centuries, the chances are extremely high that the whole “be a better white person” thing is almost certainly not ever gonna happen in the first place.
Careful. I hear the DOJ is working on a framework of how to include the repeated use of things like “mayo” in their long-awaited definition of “domestic terrorism”.
The incredibly consistent inability to distinguish between “there”, “their” and “they’re” is strictly a near-universal and easily recognizable calling card. The simple truth is, this brand of quite willful ignorance continues to show evidence of new and ever-evolving strains, and more shockingly sad intellectual lows…
But this year, we’re also going to respond to nice emails. We’re going to answer random questions from serious, well-meaning readers. We want to make this more educational.
Another inescapable truth about racism.
