    Have you considered relocating to wakanda? I hear it's like the fictional Africa you describe, only equally as....fictional.

    I don’t remember Fatback complaining about the US being a regime or evil, why should he leave?

    oh, society will adapt, but it will be painful at first, I predict a more socialist society in the future, as greedy corporatism is killing capitalism

    I’m just telling you the truth. Your choice to avoid it is telling. I’m not making any assumptions just facts.
    If disenfranchised fatherless black males join gangs, rob and steal; isn’t it logical that disenfranchised white boys would do something similar?

    Not similar.
    I am aware of the incarceration rate. Who's avoiding it? Blacks have twice the poverty rate of whites and criminality is associated with poverty/near poverty and urban concentration. 55% of Blacks are middle class and above. They commit no more crime than their economic peers. So the crime rate is not associated with race, rather circumstance.

    "Disenfranchised" white boys on the other hand are radicalized on the internet and join racist paramilitary groups which is the point of the OP.

    .

    All races are racist.

    Racism is innate instinct to reject that which is foreign.

    Draconian government forcing on people what is contrary to their nature will not change it.

    Agreed anyone of any race can be racist but the government can change things with popular support. Racism wasn't always a negative attribute.

    to your point, poverty is associate with crime. There are in fact more poor white people than blacks because there are more white people. If you don’t believe white males are disenfranchised in school then you are blind. Look at the college admissions rate, female liberal teachers, television, commercials, the toxic masculinity concept. All of it works against being male. Especially white males
    So yes, they are disenfranchised.

    That is nothing new if you can remember your teenage years. It has always been so, the young judging an unjust society through immature eyes. Now they have the internet to find the like minded who agree with their particular niche of what is unjust and it metastasizes.

    In reading some of the comments I have concluded that none of you really understand the construct of racism in a scientific and objective form .

    I conclude this because most of you are mentioning ''white'' and ''brown'' (Note ''brown'' is not ''black'') , as if color is meaningful and purposefully in regards to racism .

    Racism was and is nothing about appearance and the loathing words used in insult are solely based on visual perception as opposed to stating real reason(s).

    Mostly racism is stereotypical related and people ''forget'' that not all independents think in the same sense has others that are stereotyped to their specific group by visual perception .

    People have no objective objection to the visual perception of color , the objective objection is barbarism in example .

    If visual ''white'' people try to step in and police such as the example , all of a sudden they are racists .

    “At some future period, not very distant as measured by centuries, the civilised races of man will almost certainly exterminate and replace throughout the world the savage races. At the same time the anthropomorphous apes, as Professor Schaaffhausen has remarked, will no doubt be exterminated. The break will then be rendered wider, for it will intervene between man in a more civilised state as we may hope, than the Caucasian and some ape as low as a baboon, instead of as at present between the negro or Australian and the gorilla.”

    The alt right consists primarily of low IQ, poorly educated, and poorly paid white men who would rather blame their problems on non whites, Jews, and liberals than acknowledge the the better paid jobs they have the intelligence to learn are being replaced by automation and computer technology.

    Hi Conservative Democrat,

    With this definition of "alternative right", which seems to be very widely used, do you find that this impedes conservatives who are not mainstream Republicans from putting forward their views? Given your username this question seems especially apt for you, as under a different definition of alternative right you may be included.

    interesting quote but I don't see how it's a positive spin on racism.

    I said..."Racism wasn't always a negative attribute." It was taken for granted in Darwin's time as natural.

    Ah. I get your point. You meant it wasn't always regarded as negative. It was always negative though.

    I call myself a conservative Democrat because I am pessimistic about human nature and human potential, and I think that there is often wisdom in tradition. I vote Democrat because I believe that the government has an important role to play in human affairs.

    I have never identified with the alt right. The hostility of the alt right to Jews and Orientals repels me. I am neither a white nationalist nor a white supremacist.

    I am a race realist. Consequently, I believe that race is an important division of humans, similar to sub species among other animals, and breeds among domestic animals. I believe that the races differ significantly in average intelligence, as well as criminal and sexual behavior, and that these differences are the result of evolving in response to different population pressures lasting for thousands of years.

    Darwin would disagree.

    Darwin was wrong in more than just this. I am happy we have progressed both in science and in moral development since his time.

    If you are including me, which I assume you are, in those that do not understand the "construct of racism" you will have to use simpler language to help me understand it because I don't know what you are talking about. I am unaware there is racism in an objective/scientific form.

    If I dislike garden peas , it isn't because they are green .

    Racism is diverse and more than often based on stereotyping.

    The scientific aspects of racism is human psychology and the neurological effects of stereotyping .

    Racism is usually defined as negative stereotyping based on race/ethnicity and is entirely subjective.

    There is objective and subjective variables in racism .

    If I was to define racism : Intellectual deficiency of applying logic that results in negative bias towards others .
