Ok. So we must confront and defeat white supremacy. Sounds like a declaration of war to me. That being the case.... What IS white supremacy? Let's define it right here and now. What is it? Is it simply believing that the white race is superior to any other race? I'd agree with that. Or is it the other side of the spectrum where since whites have the power in the US (according to leftists) then they are automatically white supremacists? And how do you tell if someone is a white supremacist? Note: I'm talking about the ones that keep it to themselves. You know...the ones in "hiding". Is it just anyone that supports Republicans or conservative ideals? Is someone who supports building a wall but in every other way supports leftist ideology a white supremacist? Where is the line between someone who is not a white supremacist and someone who is? I feel that if we're going to confront and defeat these types of people like Biden wants then we need to be sure to only get them and not innocent people. We need a clear definition of what a white supremacist is and a clear way to tell who is one and who isn't.
I'd think in the spirit of unity and inclusiveness, we'd want to confront and defeat all forms of racial supremacy. Which must be why Biden has appointed Kristen Clarke who wrote in 1994 while at Harvard things like "Melanin endows Blacks with greater mental, physical and spiritual abilities -- something which cannot be measured based on Eurocentric standards."
Yeah, that's what I'd think also but hey :shrugs: Apparently no other "type" of racism matters to Biden. I had to put quotes around "type" because imo racism is racism. Doesn't matter what color skin you have. But I guess Biden thinks differently. Why else would he want to confront and defeat only racism by whites?
white supremacy is a lie, it doesn’t exist. It’s the left’s tactic of creating villains of opposition. what is a white supremacist???? Someone pls give me a definition. Trump? Why? Because he wants legal immigration, secure borders, put america first? Why he tried to nominate a black man for fed chair? Why did more blacks and latinos vote for trump than any other republican in 50 years? white supremacy is a lie, it’s a nazi like tactic to demonize conservatives in an effort to brand any conservative a racist, making them be afraid of voting against dems. i am an immigrant, have been in this country 20 years... i have yet to meet a white supremacist, where are they hiding?
It is a real thing, but the practitioners are usually found in dark corners of the Pacific Northwest and Indiana, also usually in bed with a relative.
So kkk? What is new about that? There are crazies in every corner, some black racists, white racists, people who think bush blew up twin towers from a bunker, man didn’t land on moon.. but white supremacy is far from being a danger, it’s the the opposite... there is an ever increasing number of people who hate whites, seek retribution for slavery, attack whites every day. The definition of white supremacy used to be just kkk and no-one cared as kkk is simply not a threat to this country.. they are a tiny fraction and have no power. White supremacy is now every trump supporter, simply because they have opposing views on taxes, immigration, foreign policy and support law enforcement. White supremacy is being weaponized similar to how adolf hitler initiated war on jews..
White supremacists do exist. They number maybe 50k at most. AT MOST. At the extreme most. If you use the definition of "those that believe they are superior to other races based on skin color". The common definition and not the lefts definition. I was born in this country and have lived from one end of it (Pacific ocean) to the other (Atlantic ocean) and back again and most states in between with the exception of those in the north east, Hawaii and Alaska. And I'm over 40. I met a couple in South Carolina when I was a child. Haven't since. Though I did once go to a forum with them to argue sense into them. Boy was that an exercise in futility. The only positive that came out of that experience was it made me understand them a bit better, even if I still highly disagreed with them. For the most part they're just scared individuals that don't have much in the way of education or life experience with those of some other skin color and being led around by the nose by race hustlers for monetary gain. Much like Al Sharpton does with blacks.
People like Al sharpton are as bad as white supremacists.. they are race hustlers who pop up every time there is some incident, don’t care about facts, just seek publicity for own benefit. They incite violence. louis farrakhan has how many followers? I would say all those thousands are equivalent to kkk
I'm 32 years old, and feel like for at least 28 years of my life a political leader confronting white supremacists in a speech wouldn't have been considered controversial. This has only become a controversial thing in recent years, and I can only hope it won't take long for things to change back
So, is any lefty going to tackle the question I pose in the OP? Any at all? Please, enlighten all us poor unintelligent deplorables!
White supremacy is what the left screams when they want to denigrate anyone who dares to oppose them.
Only, it was never controversial. Trump had repeatedly(and fruitlessly, given the MANY times he was asked, the same question) done the same but to no avail. Only, in Biden's case he need mention it once and it will never be mentioned again. That's both reality and a critique for what we laughably call a national media(what, did they think they wouldn't be criticized if Trump's no longer in their lives? Oh boy, are they wrong about that.) People are about to realize that movements aren't made by an individual, the individual is nothing more than the water carrier of the larger forces at play. No one wants to live under this plutocratic state of affairs, nor do people want to continually focus on 1964's problems when we have greater issues at hand right here and now.
he still wants 5 innocent black kids dead as adults 30yrs later he tested the racist waters and found clear sailing in 2016 he immediately had henchmen devise new Southern-only border plans to terrorize migrant families and deny all entry dozens of brown people died in his care thx to his extremist policies as his mob blamed everything on Obama after a judge ordered thousands of migrant kids in death camps released last year he refused to the end for 4yrs he said and did every nasty thing he could dream up to rile racists to the max but he's gone now YAY!
What 5 black kids? The 5 thugs wrongly convicted for the central park rape? Who confessed and gave evidence against one another? He thought they were guilty along with EVERYONE ELSE! What racist waters? What are you talking about? He wanted to limit illegal immigration? How is that racist?
This thread is not about Trump. It is about the questions that I asked based on what Biden said in his inaugural address. Stick to the topic please.
They're not, nearly half of Americans voted for him. As for the rest of the world, yeah, I bet Iran, Russia, China, North Korea etc are.
those weren't Americans, they tossed off that privileged title and make Iran, Russia, China, North Korea look tame
Biden Says ‘We Must Confront, Defeat White Supremacy’ in Inaugural Address This statement from a man who had a black president pick him for his VP? Here we go again. White supremacy is nothing but a straw man for liberals. And Biden wants the country to come together. Yeah, sure he does. Coming together for Biden means agreeing with him on all policies and opinion.
The democrats will keep up this narrative about white supremacy and systemic racism for as long as possible. Neither are really a thing, but if they talk about it enough, it seems like an issue. People are beginning to question it now. With all the problems we face today, why continue to focus on the make believe ones?
