[IM2]

very very confused,

Whites have been whining for 245 years. I'm not confused, you are delusional.

Now that's the biggest example of irony I've heard in awhile.

It's fact son. You repeat that stale bullshit that started with the fat dead guy. We aren't whining, we are stating the truth. And no matter how badly you want to be white, you know it's the truth.

You must be out of your mind.....

Nope. Stating the truth.

Critical Race Theory is an excuse by Legal Scholars examining current situations, to replace Historical Scholars in how History is viewed with the intent to address concerns about a present conditions that resulted from race based legislation, and with the intent to use race based legislation, to correct the problem race based legislation created in the first place.

More of the same shit, the demand to make the same mistake over again ... The History didn't change, neither did what they want to do with it.

.​

No, its called fixing the damage. For whites have benefitted from race based policies. Colorblind policies will only serve to maintain inequality.

And here we have 3 examples of what the writer, who is whites, is talking about.

White kids need to lear our history. Just like everybody else.

Should white kids be taught about the crimes of black people like the fellow who shot up the LIRR or Malvo and Muhammed too?

White kids are taught about that but those crimes did not exclude an entire race of people from constitutional rights.

The actions of a handful of miscreants in Tulsa a century ago against a few hundred black people doesn't reflect on the Whole White Race.

Why are you posting that calling us scourge OP?

You are despicable....SHAME ON YOU!

The writer of the article is white. The only scourge are whites who are doing the whining she describes. Not every white person is doing that.

Your white fragility is apparent.

Nobody lives to be 245 years. Why is it that when you whine, which is virtually every post, you call it truth, yet you say whites are whining? Your truth isn’t everyone else’s truth, asshole.

How dare you group people and say because of our skin color we have it easier than you....unbelievable....you have no idea of what other people have gone through in life...do you think only bad things happen to Black folks?...you need help...you really do...and America Black and White are laughing at you black racists...

Okay ... If you want to believe the Government that screwed you, and is still screwing you, can help you ... Roll with it.
I am not going to suggest I think it is a good idea you trust them not to screw you,
doing the same things they did when they screwed you the first time.

If you want to argue with me about colorblind policies ...
If you want to be viewed in law by the color of your skin, you are making yourself less than equal and codifying it in law.
Don't cry to me about not being equal if you don't want to be viewed as being equal.

More white fragility. Handful my ass.

Still today, an accurate accounting of the number of dead varies. More than 6,000 people were either admitted to hospitals or sent to other large facilities for care. More than 10,000 blacks were left homeless. The bombings and ground attacks destroyed 35 city blocks of Tulsa, resulting in damages that equaled over 32 million dollars in today’s money.

And Tulsa was not the only place.

For the first 5 years after WW2 in Chicago alone, there were 357 acts of terror by whites against blacks who tried living in or near majority white neighborhoods. In 1951 a black man named Harvey Clark and his family tried to move into the Cicero neighborhood of Chicago. A white mob vandalized his home the burned his furniture. Aside from trying to force Clark out of his own home, the police did nothing. In first six months of 1955 there were 213 acts of violence against blacks by whites is Philadelphia. These were acts of terror committed to intimidate blacks so they would not move into white communities. In 1964 when blacks again tried renting an apartment in Cicero, their apartment was again vandalized. After the apartment was vandalized, police entered the apartment, took out the furniture and told the renters they had been evicted. At the same time, in Detroit there were over 200 acts of violence against blacks by whites to terrorize black families so they would not move to the suburbs. From 1950-1965 there were over 100 bombings of black owned residences in Los Angeles.51 In 1987, another black family tried moving into Cicero. Whites responded with gunfire and firebombs.

Don't try that shit with me. Your argument is retarded given the reality in which we live. Whites have 15 times more wealth than we do because of polices of white racial preference. If we go colorblind tomorrow the inequality will increase because the inequalities caused by white racial preferences were not addressed. If I want to be viewed by law as black, that does not have to make me less than equal. This is where your racism hangs you when you try lecturing about seeing thigs by color.

Dude ... All you have is race based bullshit.
Not interested, and when you are ready to apply a clearer vision, to find a more productive solution to arrive at a better future for all of us ...
Then you can join me getting there ... I'm on my way and not waiting for you.

There is a wave of white whining that's going on in the U.S.

Amy Cooper's "racial discrimination" lawsuit and the scourge of white whining
Amanda Marcotte

"Large numbers of white people — mostly, but not exclusively Donald Trump voters — convince themselves that it's not racism that is a problem in the U.S., but the bogeyman of white people being victimized by anti-racists.

Take, for instance, the surge of chatter about "critical race theory." If you have no idea what the hell your drunk uncle is talking about when he raves about this on Facebook, well, you're not alone. Critical race theory was, until this year, an obscure concept outside of the narrow confines of legal scholarship, used mainly by law professors to explain the historical reasons for ongoing racial inequalities baked into the legal system.

But "critical race theory" sure does sound scary to defensive white people who are sure the "woke" mob is going to find out about that racist joke they told at a poker game last year and "cancel" them, as Fox News keeps warning will happen. And so right-wing media has spent months making sure the term "critical race theory" is on the lips of every Donald Trump voter still mad that they "let" Philadelphia and Detroit vote in the 2020 election.

The idea that "critical race theory" is a widespread threat to white people was invented, whole cloth, by the right-wing media and then pumped out vigorously. As the Washington Post reported, mentions of "critical race theory" on cable news simply didn't exist prior to this year, but there's been an explosion of uses of that term on Fox News in recent months. A similar study from Media Matters shows that, by early May, the term had been used — inaccurately in most, if not all, cases — on Fox News at least 552 times in the past year.

The right would have you believe that it's the left that made "critical race theory" a thing, and they are merely reacting. But another study of Facebook posts by Media Matters found that pretty much the only people talking about "critical race theory" online are Republicans, with nearly 90% of the posts from political pages and 97% of the interactions coming from conservative figures.

To be certain, there is nothing wrong with real-life critical race theory, which is a valuable tool for academics analyzing legal and cultural issues. But right-wing media doesn't use the term accurately. It's just a stand-in for a generalized fear that "woke" culture is coming to get white people. And also, of course, as justification to silence — or, as one might say, cancel — any discussion or attempt to educate people, especially students, about the existence or history of racism in America.

The result has been an explosion of bills in red states that, under the guise of protecting white people from being discriminated against, are banning "critical race theory." But, as critics told Adam Harris at The Atlantic, the real purpose is to "effectively prevent public schools and universities from holding discussions about racism" — including, quite likely in many cases, teaching kids the truth about slavery and Jim Crow in history class.

In Oklahoma, for instance, a new law bans any school curriculum that could cause a student to "feel discomfort, guilt, anguish or any other form of psychological distress on account of his or her race or sex." The bill is packed full of nice-sounding language about non-discrimination and racial equality, but it's obvious that the real purpose is to scare teachers away from discussing any history — such as the 1921 Tulsa race massacre — that could unsettle white kids whose parents raised them to believe racism isn't real. After signing the bill into law, Oklahoma's Republican governor was booted from the centennial commission on the Tulsa massacre. The commission's director said that the ban signed by Gov. Kevin Stills "chills the ability of educators to teach students, of any age, and will only serve to intimidate educators who seek to reveal and process our hidden history."

This hyperventilating white victimhood mentality is also on full display in Missouri, where lawyer Mark McCloskey announced his Senate candidacy earlier this month. McCloskey became infamous last summer when he and his wife, Patricia McCloskey, were taped waving guns at a group of Black Lives Matter protesters who were peacefully marching in the street by their house.

In his Fox News announcement, McCloskey claimed, "God came knocking on my door disguised as an angry mob. In reality, no one knocked on his door. Protesters were, quite literally, just walking by to get to another location and only interacted with the McCloskeys after they pulled guns on them. McCloskey also whined about "critical race theory," and for all we know, he also has delusions that this previously obscure bit of academic jargon knocked on his door. Greg Sargent of the Washington Post characterized McCloskey's announcement as the "anti-leftist hyperbole you hear constantly from Republicans," noting that it is the result of "the complete unshackling of oneself from any empirical constraints in depicting the leftist threat."

And this problem is only growing.

As Jennifer Chudy and Hakeem Jefferson report at the New York Times, "Republicans and white people have actually become less supportive of Black Lives Matter than they were before the death of George Floyd." In the past year, the majority of white people saw all this evidence of racism and police violence, and somehow still found their way to a story where white people are the real victims and the bad guys are the people speaking out against racism.

So sure, Amy Cooper's narcissism and self-pity may seem over the top, but the sad truth is she is just a particularly noxious example of a nationwide problem. Trump managed to get a shocking 74 million votes, more than any Republican candidate in history, after running a campaign that was a full-on right-wing fantasy about "cancel culture" more than about any real issues facing the nation. In 2021, the majority of white Americans would rather believe a fantasy where they're the victims, rather than admit, even just a tiny bit, that racism is still a real problem.
