Does Virtue and Wickedness Fall Along Racial Lines?

Forgive this thread in advance, it's borne of the deepest cynicism I'm feeling right now.

Most people pretend they don't notice and they certainly don't mention it. The throngs of people celebrating and dancing at the re-election of Barack Obama were mostly minorities. We're all aware of the demographics of this and every election these days. Republicans are supported by mostly white people and Democrats by minorities. And while no race is monolithic, the rule seems to apply noticeably. Considering what the Democrats stand for, more entitlements, less responsibility, and the legislative plunder of those who actually work hard for their money, I can't help but feel a deep hatred in my gut for the highly peppered crowds I see praising the continuance of the gravy train.

And to complicate things further, I'm not white. I'm part of a racial demographic that also mostly votes Democrat.

But I have to say I have more respect for white people than I do for my race or minorities in general. It seems that whites are the ones supporting hard work, self responsibility, fiscal sanity, and curtailing entitlements to those few who truly need it. White conservatives don't think that the world owes them a living. They don't think charity means reaching into somebody else's pocket to give to others. They seat the primary responsibility for social justice upon themselves, not government. They don't look to government to solve all their problems, to provide all their needs, and to insulate them from the vicissitudes of life. They are rugged individuals, proud of self reliance, and exhibiting all the virtues of people who toil for everything they own and support their families without the aid of a politician.

Arrayed against them are wicked, covetous minorities who are envious that some have more than others, certain that they've been cheated out of their due sustinance, and looking to government to institute their twisted, impious view of "fairness". They cheer when Obama suggests we need to "spread the wealth", and it isn't lost on them that Obama too is a minority, completing the picture of making it cool to be a lazy minority sustained by the exertions of others. Yes, this election proves that the takers have outnumbered the contributers, but I'm not going to pretend that I don't notice that most of those takers are of a certain hue. (All hail the recipient!)

So in spite of what we'd like to believe, that race doesn't matter when it comes to moral rectitude and living a life according to unimpeachable principles, could reality be at variance with what we believe to be true? Could white people be more predisposed toward virtue and minorities toward an evil heart of coveteousness and sloth? Yes these questions are provocative, but it's time we start looking at the evidence and now what we'd like to assume about the human race in our misguided optimism.

If you're a Leftist, I don't expect a rational response from you. I'll have to sift through the crap to see if there are any thinkers out there who see the same thing that I do and can offer a different explanation. I'll be ignoring the rest of you.

 

Oh, and before accusing me of racism, think of why 90% of black people voted for Obama.....because of the neat crease in his slacks? Gimme a break!

 

I think Obama's victory will be seen as an important date for non-elite white people. Their standard of living is going to decline and they are going to feel besieged as time passes. They will develop a separate identity. Obama will be in large part responsible for that development.

 

Minorities continue to suffer from liberal policies, but most are short sighted, not considering the long term consequences of dependence on politicians. Most won't look at the fact that the Leftist "war on poverty" has only served to aggrandize and generationalize poverty.

 

How exactly do minorities suffer from liberal policies?

 

I'm glad your so sheltered that you've never heard of ghettos much less seen one. Welfare, housing projects, the destruction of the black family, abortion clinics disproportionately distributed in minorities neighborhoods, and the general message of doom and despair in which minorities are told they're victims and need a politician to protect and provide for them. Dependency is a poison. If you don't understand this, you're a hopelessly leftist Democrat.

 

well, i know the whites in hitlers germany, franco's spain, milosovic's serbia and croatia were certainly highly moral and virtuous folk, so maybe youre onto something here!! hahahaahahahahaahah

 

A butt headed rebuttal. It was an extreme minority of white Germans that took part in the atrocities of that war. I'm sure that is completely lost on you. What's the excuse of minorities voting for a parasitical existance while whites in this country vote for hard word, responsibility, and fiscal restraint? We're not talking about a few people, we're talking about 118 million Americans who voted and knew what they were voting for. Let's keep on topic and offer intelligent answers please.

 

What leads you to the delusion that you are qualified to judge virtue or wickedness?

 

Because I am a moral person. An immoral person such as yourself would have a hard time telling the difference.

 

Great thread.

I don't think there is anything on a genetic level that causes minorities to be more envious and spiteful than whites. I think minorities as a group are less intelligent and have less defense against propaganda that exploits their jealousies. White people, more than any other group, built this country over many generations and have more generational wealth than minorities. Thanks to the left, minorities believe that that wealth needs to be redistributed so that every group has an equal amount, regardless of the amount of effort put in to earn it.

 

I really am searching for another explanation for what I'm seeing. You're right about white people building this nation from the foundation, but it goes back further than that. White people brought civilization to the world, or rather I should say, white culture. I don't believe in racial superiority, but I do believe that some cultures are superior to others and we have become multicultural in this country, rather than the melting pot we were supposed to be. It's hard for me not to believe that minorities are predisposed to inferiority in that they don't pursue self sufficiency, preferring instead to prey on others for their sustinence. I'm staring the evidence right in the face!

 

Asians tend to outperform whites in terms of scholastic ability and often income.

 

****** right they knew what they were voting for. the staus quo. and it aint ever comin back. and there is absolutely nothing they can fricken do about demographics. looks good on ya , pal

 

I didn't see a lot of Asians in the crowd worshipping O-Baal, but I did see a lot of blacks and Latinos. They seemed to outnumber whites.

 

What you seem to be is another person who, counter to the statement in his thread, proven by his own thread, seems to believe the world should run as he thinks it should run. You also have this rather common white-tower psychosis that makes you see whites as besieged, attacked, and otherwise harassed by the presence of minorities along with the insinuation that somehow their vote should be worth less because they are minorities.

You also seem to think conservative/Republcan's are the only smart people and I'm sure anyone who thinks counter to what you believe is proof of those charges. Like Jesus. You're better than Jesus, right?

And by the way, what race do you happen to be apart of? It probably doesn't matter. Whatever you are, starting a thread like this, regardless of your race, in sight of the fact that it is probably like a spit directly to the face of minorities, shows what type of person you are and the kind of things the type of people like you represent.

Go ahead. Post more and go on national television. Tell all the minorities their lazy, ignorant thieves out to get your money. Then put a pillow down on the floor so when your jaw drops from election results, you don't crack it and whine about why your charming outlook wasn't engraved into the white house wall.

 

Because they have a culture that stresses education, hard work, family, and a moral lifestyle. The same things cannot be said for blacks and Latinos to a lesser extent.

 

I'm just making observations. I'm not turning a blind eye to the fact that the takers tend to be minorities while the contributers tend to be hard working white people. Far from the idiotic Leftard assumption that whites are privileged, I observe that they work their ass off for what they own and they don't want others stealing from the fruit of their labor.

We are smarter than you, don't know where Jesus comes into this conversation. Maybe you feel the need to repent?

I've never made my race a secret, but neither have I used my race to gain more clout in conversations. It's just a matter of fact. I'm Native American.

You know what I think? I think it's hilarious how there are countless whites who hate white people (you're probably one of them) and yet if a minority is disgusted at what other minorities do, it doesn't fit your world view.

You're clearly not able to discuss this rationally. I've never said that all minorities are lazy and covetous. I'm certainly a break from that stereotype. But enough of them are that I've taken notice. Sorry if I don't do the whole ostrich think like everyone else. That's just not me.

 

In other words you just want to hear from folks who say what you want to hear?

 

75% of Asians voted for Obama.....think about that.....

What idiocy.

 

People see what they want to see.

 

Leftists see what they want to see. Conservatives see even those things they don't want to see. We're more in touch with the real world because we don't fabricate an alternate reality like the Left does.

 

Says the man from fantasyland...

 

That hasn't been my observation of the far right conservatives represented here on the boards. I have noticed especially when it comes to race that they see the world through very tinted glasses.

 

Basically, this whole thread says that conservatives are awesome and others are not and that's why conservatives should be allowed to rule. Anything apart from that is a disappointment and an outrage.

Did I capture the sentiment?
