    You conveniently left out the part where it's been intentionally used to provoke conversation, and is also used by people who're most definitely not Nazi/Klan. That's okay though. We get that you don't agree that IT'S OKAY TO BE WHITE.

    It appears you want different rules for different people. Is it ok to be white, yes or no?

    That's what happens when people drop nazi slogans.

    The point was raised in the OP, with what is wrong in saying that slogan. And my point remains that the slogan is a nazi / KKK slogan, and people chanting that get associated with nazi's / kkk members and antisemitism.

    It appears I'm just sourcing slogans that I read. And you're just having a little fit over it. Grow up, champ.
    Is it ok to be associated with nazi's / kkk when using their slogan?
    Most would say it aint ok, some would say meh.
    That's what this is about.

    Nah, you just want to associate anyone who dares to utter "it's okay to be white" with Nazis/Klan. Old tactic... don't like something, label it as a phobe or ist of some kind and hope the "problem" goes away.

    What would terrorize you more, someone in a supermarket yelling it's OK to be white, or yelling allahu akbar? I seriously doubt very many people associate the phrase it's OK to be white with Nazis with the exception of people who hate white people.

    That it's okay to be white is common sense. If it requires a Nazi to remind people of that, it shows how far the status quo has sunk. The problem child here is whoever says or suggests that there is something wrong with being white. There's your skunk. Because what's most important is what's in ones heart.

    A nazi slogan? Geez, this crap is too difficult to keep up with.

    Racism, sexism, homophobia, etc.....I officially do not care.

    If there was not systemic racism going on perpetrated by whites and if whites weren't the majority and didn't control all the levers of power, I wouldn't be suspicious of "it's OK to be white" signs.

    Every time the left says whites control everything they never explain why that is. Could it be because they think whites might be superior, otherwise the left’s claim of white supremacy is just nonsense.

    When a majority systematiclly abuses and marginalizes a minority, it doesn't make the majority "superior". And it usually doesn't end well for the majority, human nature being what it is. Best not to even go down that road.

    You cant abuse or marginalize anyone unless they are in someway inferior and this goes right down to which street gang can marginalize the other. If an abused or marginalized group had equal intelligence, motivation, strength, courage and accountability then they wouldn’t be marginalized. You’ve seen the list of democrat presidential contenders, right? How did systematically abused and marginalized people get into the race?

    BLM isn't racist. It's blatant hypocrisy. BLM only matter when cops kill blacks. When blacks kill blacks, which happens 100x more than when cops do it, it's the norm and the MSN ignores it and sweeps it under the rug because it doesn't fit their narrative.

    Protests against gang members aren’t likely to accomplish much. And they don’t swear to serve and protect either.

    In just Chicago alone, not Baltimore, Detroit, New Orleans or St. Louis, there were 2962 shootings in 2018; that’s a mass shooting of 8+ people every day, and the left is dead silent except when they want to blame Trump. But when white people get shot the left blows chunks. Why is that?

    So in other words, thousands of dead Black Lives really don't matter.

    Got it. Thanks for clearing that up.

    It's OK to investigate crimes by whites.

    I'm not trying to knock anyone. Just telling the truth and letting the chips fall where they may.

    "...this is where we are."

    Looks like some of the nation drank the cool aid. When will we go after the communists teaching our children? When will we recognize that being against us is treasonous and therefore, a crime? When will folks be prosecuted for breaking laws? Until they are, this will continue. Freedom of speech is one thing. Propaganda is another. That's what this is.

    Folks, this is a civil war, if you didn't know, and they have infiltrated the government, law enforcement, the military, and the justice system all the way up to the supreme court.
