John Blake: "There's nothing more frightening in America today than an angry White man"

When will there be a major or legal political effort to punish or shutter CNN for vilifying an entire race of people? The read between the lines here is that the lives of white men matter less because, unless something changes, they're incompatible with "democracy." https://t.co/srgETCqqZJ

Ask about white privilege and you get a litany of how they've been discriminated against.
Lost scholarships, job promotions, awards they would've gotten if it hadn't "had to be given to" a Woman, or a POC. "There's no white privilege, we're the victims, of political correctness."

Well that’s all factually accurate.

One much bigger roadblock to unifying our multiracial country:

CNN never learns. Just keeps doubling down on the same narrative. Just think how things could be if they tried to unite and not divide

Yeah I’m so tired of these stereotypes getting acquitted when any other would be found guilty. What gets me is how do these jurors sleep with their verdict is beyond me. I didn’t know that judge was so influential

Why is the solution to find everyone guilty, rather than working to make it fair for everyone?

The meme of "you've got to quit saying 'white people suck'" is here too:

Why are @TheDemocrats who support so many issues that benefit the middle class still considered "out of touch" by 62% of America? #DemIntervention #Midterms2022 #WokeIsAJoke pic.twitter.com/87U2n81m0d

Morgan Freeman is being mentioned a lot in this context. I did a search to see what's up with that. This is all I could find.

I agree with this commenter on that thread:

The census did that. Grouped people into categories. Why? Since 1790, they counted the population of each state get the number of delegates for the House of Representatives. Freed slaves counted as 3/5 of a representative, although they couldn’t vote.

Morgan Freeman's thoughts on Black History month... Imagine if there were to be a white history month, such taboo would invoke a volcano of anger among the fake delusional woke. To conquer the woke, humanity should identify ourselves as non other than just human!! pic.twitter.com/6SZCTssivL

Bringing back a 2005 Morgan Freeman interview

In 2021, there is a push to burn books that discuss race.

Edit to add:

VA Lt Governor Winsome Sears on teaching history involving race.

“When we talk about the Tulsa Race Riots, let’s ask ourselves how did the Black people amass so much wealth right after the Civil War, so that it could even be destroyed? How did they do that?!

Interesting that Rittenhouse is not going to go with the race card:

“This has nothing to do with race, it never had anything to do with race. I support BLM. [...] I'm not a racist person, I support the BLM movement, I support peacefully demonstrating. I believe there needs to be change.”

I wonder whether he learned to say that from his second attorney who seemed like a sensible man and blamed the first attorney for being out for publicity for himself.

It still leaves the vigilante and gun rights issues, as self-defense replacements for missing police, of course. That mindset affects all races now and even all income levels, though I would venture that it's hurting poor the worst.

And apparently MSNBC wants you to feel guilty if you don't "cancel" Thanksgiving:

*His* Thanksgiving may celebrate genocide, *mine* will celebrate stuffing myself silly with friends and family. https://t.co/BNgtiWHeQS

Facebook’s algorithm was problematic because it treated expressions of hatred for whites and men same as for other groups. It therefore had a “disparate impact” against minorities, which it should’ve revealed to “civil rights leaders.” https://t.co/DdWkPCy7cm pic.twitter.com/w2szU3J2Bg
— Richard Hanania (@RichardHanania) November 22, 2021

Facebook rejected a plan to treat speech directed against people who were “Black, Jewish, LGBTQ, Muslim or of multiple races” more harshly, another sign of their “racism.” They finally agreed though to stop automatically taking down criticisms of whites, Americans and men. pic.twitter.com/0K8n70BBom

It’s clear here that Facebook was taking into account conservative considerations, but was being pushed by the media and civil rights orgs. Focusing on big tech and woke capital are a mistake, they’re all being pushed by the same people in the same direction.
— Richard Hanania (@RichardHanania) November 22, 2021

Conservatives feel more comfortable attacking rich white tech executives than black activists. Thus they talk about “woke capital” and “big tech” all the time but not “civil rights,” except when they’re claiming they invented the concept.

I'm genuinely surprised how rapidly an ideology of encouraging racial resentment and conflict at all times, everywhere has gone from fringe corners of academia all the way up to high-ranking elected officials. This is an actual threat to democracy that is never identified as so.

White Privilege discourse seems to make white people less sympathetic to low-income white people, which does not strike me as a politically constructive intervention. https://t.co/XC88dOM2ot pic.twitter.com/bcLnPUG2S4
