I'm tall. My first language was German. My shoes take a shine. I am generally well-regarded, by fascistic types, who see me as being attentive, systematic, and rigid.

But, he's made fun of a conspicuously-handicapped person, and "outed" John Stewart Leibowitz, for his stage name. Autistic crisis actors and institutions have been used in active shooter exercises.

Many of us are saying that we are incapable of working, so are using subsidies. (No offence).

But, all of the same arguments apply to us, here, through no fault of our own.

Are we discussing "white" as a race?? A matter of hair texture and skin pigmentation, with people who possess the favored types or types occupying a codified position of favor in society??

f**k that s**t. Nobody is greater than anyone else because of their physical features. The worth of a person is determined by their behavior.

Or are we discussing "white" as a culture?? A matter of valuing a work ethic, a measure of self-reliance, helping each other, respect for other people, fairness to others as well as oneself, and not expecting to build a life of luxury fencing hot s**t, selling drugs, and hustling welfare when one is perfectly capable of working (even if one's first undertaking must be to create a job or relocate to where one can be found)??

If we're talking about THAT "white," then yes, please, let's make America white again. The worth of a person is determined by their behavior.

Of course, if we're talking about THAT white, I've met a lot of white people with dark skin and a lot of light-skinned people who ain't white.

Jim Crow was s**t. s**t and fucktarded garbage that needed to die. One could argue, in fact, that Jim Crow birthed ghetto culture. Seems a credible argument, since I see the same attitude and behaviors in poor and disenfranchised light-skinned people. My whole damn family these days.

There were some other values of that time that did, in fact, make America great.

Those values may not be Mr. Trump's values. I suspect that Mr. Trump's actual values are ones that would make America great-- for a small handful of very gifted, very well-connected, and/or very amoral people. For the rest of us, not so much.

The problem, as I see it, is that we in America tend to view life as a zero-sum game. And it IS a zero-sum game-- but only because we have set up a culture that rewards those who play it as such and win. Life is a zero-sum game because we choose to make it one.

We could make another choice. But I doubt we will.

This bigoted f**ktard certainly isn't. Mr. Trump certainly isn't. Ms. Clinton certainly isn't.

People generally don't.

Random "whites" aren't that great, but I prefer them over random "dark" people.

I see about 3-4 black people murder someone everyday on local tv news.

Rich, educated, good looking people of any race are the best!


Still, the majority of blacks - or whites - aren't going to kill anyone. I'd prefer to live alongside law abiding, regardless of race or color.

Lotsa luck if you fall and break your leg.

Both, since social constructs are supposed to be the product of biology.

Easy to fix.

Biggest problem is meds for accidents (antibiotics and painkillers, for example), but living in the outlands doesn't preclude one from traveling for supplies and treatment.

People just bring drama without any benefits I've found (other than paying for services).

The good thing about being a misanthropist is that you're fair, so you've got the moral high ground.

I found the solution to the white privilege problem. Use CRISPR-CAS9 gene editing technology to make America never white again (sarcasm)

Agreed! I'd live under a boulder in a hole in the ground, and never come out from underneath it if I could!

Anyone else hear how Trump had tweeted an image of Clinton, with a message about her being the most corrupt candidate ever within a red Star of David -- to a Neo-Nazi website! Once the media got wind of this, Trump quickly turned the star into a circle, then pulled the tweet all together. His campaign scrambled to say that the star wasn't intended to be a Star of David, but a sheriff's star. No one is yet explaining why Trump had tweeted this to a white supremacist site to begin with, despite being asked repeatedly.

More of a nice "troll" than Trump's Twitter crew knowing what it was doing IMO. Trump is pro-Jewish after all (is he retroactively Jewish now due to his daughter marrying into the religion?).

A certain politically incorrect place has got him to retweet similar things without his "Twitter" [or anyone] catching on. Which is quite humorous.

(The source of which are throwaway Twitter accounts. I'm betting this one is too.)

If Trump didn't know where his tweet was being sent, why did he try to correct it first by turning the star into a circle, before removing it all together?
And while Trump might not be an Antisemite due to his daughter's marriage and conversion, it seems some members of his fanclub certainly are. I think even if Trump isn't a bigot, he courts voters who are. While he holds such voters in contempt, he doesn't seem to consider the consequences of unleashing such hate just to win the Presidency.

I'd say that was due to realizing what it was. You only change something if you don't want that association because it's either not your policy, or you're hiding your true feelings; Trump would be too smart for the latter to show up in a simple Tweet.

Guilt by association is only an argument if the person actually in question does whatever those "bad actions the bad people want" do.

I'm sure you've got KILL ALL CIS-SCUM people on Bernie's or Hillary's side, which is just as bad as GAS ALL JEWS. This isn't an argument against Bernie or Hillary, even if they don't proactively speak out against it.

"KILL ALL CIS-SCUM?" Never heard of that.
As Transgender people are a teeny tiny minority, even if some of them wanted to do such a thing, it would be laughable if they tried. Unfortunately, Neo-Nazis and other white supremacists are considerably more numerous, and have caused genuine injury and death, and anyone courting them just to get their votes are more than just guilty by association.

You'd be surprised what opinions people hold when they aren't trying to blend in. :)

What's the percentage of say, violent white supremacists? What about socialists? White and CIS hating people are in the latter group.

You can replace "Neo-Nazis" with "socialists" and you're making the same argument, and by design are calling Bernie/Hillary guilty. "Socialists" are just as guilty and bad as fascists by any measure, in actual events and ideology.

The door swings both ways. Both sides of the same coin. And all that.
