"white pride" vs "black pride"

      Seriously. The KKK, for example, has disappeared as a visible entity several times in American history only to resurface more prominently than ever. They're like a festering scab on the face of humanity. The last thing you do is ignore it and hope they go away.

Saying that everyone that isn't white and is proud of their heritage is racist against white people, is just as ridiculous as saying that every white person that is proud of their heritage is racist by default. Having said that: 

White people don't have to march or fight against discrimination/mistreatment based on their race, because they aren't commonly discriminated or mistreated based on race.  Doesn't matter how hard you want to disagree with me on this one. History supports this fact, and if you want to say ''yes, History, it's in the past get over it'' Then think again, because the reason we have movements like BLM is because in 2017, discrimination is a very real, present thing. 

 

This does not mean that there aren't cases of injustice against white men/women. That there aren't extreme ''black supremacists'' or any other groups, out there. This isn't right and I don't support it. 

But many of you seem to use this as a form of leverage  every time someone wants to stand against discrimination. ''Oh but black people /other ethnicities are racist too'' is almost as misguided and silly as ''I am not racist because I have black/other ethnicities friends, y'all'' We kind of see your point, and you might have good intentions, but yeeeah... it just doesn't fully work.

There is a difference between remembering the past and using it to virtue signal.

Or pretending a single guy with a car hitting a few protesters is the return of Nazis and the KKK. 

 

People are, of course, free to do so, and are likewise free to get laughed at.

I'd say some whites are racist, but to be more specific, it's mostly white leftists being racist toward other whites with different political views. 

 

Lefty natural reaction:

 

 

Whaa? Whites can't be victims of racism, only whites can be racist!

She did not explain it in the next sentence, she merely said the opposite. So, to your suggestion, I'll disregard it, thanks.

You can claim you understood it in your context, still means nothing -- stating another group does the same thing is not an explanation. Best of luck next time.

  I understood it as written, not in 'my context'.

 

  Whether you understood it or not matters not to me, but by electing to use half the quote, you are the one taking it out of context.

My wife and I joke about this all the time, we both read news about how white people are racist and no one else can be. It's pretty comical to us.

You are entitled to believe that, but it's irrelevant to me.
