I know. I watched a movie called "Brad's Status" recently, where Ben Stiller was yelling at his son for forgetting the correct date of his admissions interview at Harvard. So the son showed up a day late for his interview. The Ben asked his son, "How can someone so smart do something so stupid?" And then he went on to say something like, "You need to be smarter. You are a white kid...etc." That stuck with me, because the tables have turned. If you are a white male in this country right now, then you are getting discriminated against. It's that simple. And you can thank the loud, obnoxious, snowflake babies on the left for this state of unhealthy affairs.
I've said very often and very loudly that I believe in lifting up all underserved, underrepresented groups like blacks, latinos, women, etc. However, I've said in the same breath that I do NOT believe we have to tear other groups down to accomplish that. I believe any actions or words that tear groups down, yes, even if they are white males, is an act of racism that would make Hitler proud. So the true nazis of today are the minorities and their benefactors who have become so virulent, they are just tearing everything around them down, including creating a new racism against white males. That is wrong.
Let's keep in mind that blacks are only 13% of this country, latinos only 18%, other groups are 8%, and whites are the 61% balance. So why does it feel like the only voices being heard nowadays are the strident and violent voices of the minority groups and why are they resorting to violence, hatred, and trying to dismantle our institutions? Don't tell me that they've been repressed too long. I think that is bullshit. No one alive today in the US engaged in slavery, nor condones it. If they do, they would be uniformly reviled, as we all revile the KKK. So I think the Democrats have created a victim mentality among their constituency and that is a very unhealthy mental condition. You can't rise up if you always see yourself as a victim. Nothing good comes from it. Kanye West said as much.
Oh and before anyone on this thread starts calling me a nazi, you should know that I am half latino, about 6.1% Black African, and about 3.1% Native American, with the rest being white. So says my DNA test. So I'm in pretty much every darned protected category. And I don't like what is happening in this country one bit. I didn't get to where I am now, retired and doing well, by asking for reparations or whining like a little baby. I got here by studying harder, working harder, and pulling out all the stops to rise up and grab that promotion and ask for my full value as an employee, manager, director, and then an exec at a tech company. That is how its done. Stop pulling down the damned statues and go work on yourself. Just go work. Less time to be a victim when you are busy working.
Sorry, Ten, I went onto my soapbox. ;) |
