Without getting into how weak all of that is, note that you're misunderstanding the phrase "limited gov't," which refers to the existence of a constitution. "Limited" in that context means "with limits," not "small." It's not even possible to meaningfully measure the "size" of gov't. And what's more, while white Americans tend to support low gov't spending in an abstract sense (not if you get more specific), that's not true of whites everywhere or of all subsets of white Americans, meaning that race is a poor explanation for it.

It's also been polled as govt offering fewer services or more... same result.

He recognized that there are groups of people who are susceptible to fear mongering and identity politics and took advantage of that, true. But the point is us whities aren't somehow ethnically predisposed to the values this country was founded on, as you are suggesting, if half of us are willing to toss them aside and elect an authoritarian who wipes his ass with the constitution. I think the people you're talking about are mostly just xenophobes.

That said, I am a proponent of state's rights for the same reason. I encourage folks to congregate with like minded people and make a community that suits them, without a lot of blunt national policy interference. In a country this size there is certainly no need to force people who don't like each other to live in close proximity if they don't want to. On this point maybe we agree.

Every group is playing identity politics except white people. Wake up.

And you're writing out "xenophobes" as if its some kind derogatory comment. In-group preference is the neurotypical behavior guy. If you're a xenophile then you would have been selected out of the gene pool as far back as the creation of mammalian social networks.

1) Trump plays identity politics better than most and he's white. Maybe you define the term differently than I do?
2) Xenophobia is irrational by definition.

I'm sure I'd find the neuro-typical behavior of cavemen objectionable while at the same time deserving of some thanks for keeping the species alive. In any case, progress has been made and we've mostly learned that we have more in common than not, and getting along is just a matter of understanding that.
It is called progress for a reason. The holdouts tend to be the worst of us, imo. And the point you were making about the white man and the values America was founded upon--which is what I was addressing--still sounds like a lot of pseudo-scientific hogwash.

There's a lot of hatred for whites these days and there's a lot of people that think they're privileged and racist. Why is it that non whites from all over the world group up with each other in white countries and prefer to be with their own kind and culture? There's going to be power struggles in the future.

Greoric is simply pointing out the truth.

Can Cerrone's liver survive the onslaught tonight? I want to believe.
 
They are doing the fight pass prelims in the old UFC 1 format. Its hard to explain but funny and a cool tribute.
 
Outside the last three fights I've no idea who all these fighters are. Anyone to keep an eye out for?
 
This is a very small cage too.
 
Alright, blame @Lead for letting me know I can up my WR post count here. What's this place all about?

I see you @Rebelfett
We're gonna make it together, bro.

Well I am now if that's what it takes. I don't really follow MMA that much anymore, I totally forgot tonight was a Fight Night. Really interested to see how KZ/Yair plays out, should be a wild fight.
