Social Thoughts on "Heritage" Americans/Canadians?

The name for the people saying this these days is the woke right, who like the woke left, are obsessed very stupidly and damagingly with identity politics.

AOC was attacking "whiteness" publicly the other day. Whiteness of course being described as an insult or negative thing. That's the other side of this war, and it is merely a war of idiots, there aren't any goodies in this fight, only baddies. Race trolling.

Whiteness doesnt exists. Before Imperialism "white" people were doing the same sh*t to each other as they ended up doing everywhere else. The racism became a tool with which to justify the enslavement and genocide of other people, based on ideologies common to religious sects.

In the Americas, Irish were not "white"...neither were Italians, Germans, Scandinavians, Scots, etc. It was limited to Anglos. It slowly expanded to encompass all of those groups when politically convenient and ballot potency was waning. Vote with us, and you get to BE as us:



Societal integration didnt solve this division very quickly. It wasn't until the Civil Rights movement and beyond that the language started to change. But generations who came up before that still saw the dividing lines:



The only reason "black" IS a thing is because descendants of slaves were particularly devoid of any ethnic heritage being as their language and place of origin was never accessible to them past the point of slavery. A people with no actual heritage, so theyve had to fashion their own identity. Hence, African-American or black. And that wouldn't have even been necessary had they not been immediately disenfranchised with Jim Crow. Had they just been allowed to be American and have some say in how they lived. It took Civil conflict to get that, 100 years later.

If you're white and sensitive about it, it's because you've become attached to a lie, a mythology. That's what this thread is about. Anglos arent Native to this land, and whiteness is not an ethnicity or a culture. It's just a means used to "other" people, colorism. The "white" people of my Family are Irish Protestants and Italian Catholics. And we all know Catholics and Protestants got along swimmingly.
 
So yeah let's not get crazy, let's just elect either another fascist right winger or maybe a greasy centrist with more neo-liberal economic positions.

who do you want? mamdani, whose never had a job in his life and his parents are worth $70m? bernie, who's a multi millionaire? ilhan omar, who's worth 30m? all the "grassroots down-to-earth" candidates on the left are multimillionaire scum like the rest of them lol.
 
I think you are doing EXACTLY what MAGA does- trying to justify something that is obviously not justifiable. "No, he didn't mean it that way."
I don't think you understand what she said TBH

Missing the point in a huge way- but that's OK, you are part of the religion, which you proved by this post.

You have a lot of made-up history.

You are just the other side of the same coin as MAGA. Crazy extremist beliefs. You aren't righteous, you are fighting a war just like the other lunatics.

 
I don't think you understand what she said TBH
Projection. That means something specific- not something you WANT it to mean. You can play the "She didn't really mean that" card all you want, it doesn't change a thing.

I don't care what loser politicians say nor do I worship either side. All I am saying is she is not on higher ground- she is just fighting a culture/race war just like the far right.
 
Whiteness doesnt exists.
This is just another case of you being a fish saying the water doesn't exist, cause it's so present all around you that you can't even see it.

White culture is many things but its most powerful instrument is the overarching dominion over the way humans live, basically everywhere there's civilization, for more than 2000 years straight. Law and governance, good practices in basically everything from science, accounting, trade laws, healthcare, to even trivial things like entertainment, culture, sports. the organizing principles of societies in basically all countries around the world, certainly in the ones that matter. you live in a world that the white man built over thousands of years, and you will continue to do so for a very long time, maybe forever. you may have helped, but you're not the originator.

All your anger comes from the realization that all i say is true and there's nothing you can do about it except pout and have a fit.

@Sinister explained it pretty well a few posts ago.


Meanwhile you have yet to show how she was critical of whiteness.

You haven't even provided a quote.

This is absolute nonsense

Lol, wtf are you talking about?

You honestly believe that "whiteness" invented all those things? I mean, it's a total line of bullsh*t, but you genuinely believe that?

Man I really tried over time to give you the benefit of the doubt but thanks for revealing that you're just a plain ole unapologetic white supremacist. I'm not angry at all, you're angry. You just need to say I'm angry to try to justify this nonsense assertion that from "white" people comes all the good that ever existed.

White men are the "originators"...of literally everything.
