Now, I'd like to hear some stories about how white guys have been discriminated against just for being white.
Let's hear some personal accounts of this vilification.

Richard Spencer, the face of a white-nationalist group that gained notoriety and momentum after Donald Trump’s election, has been allowed by the federal government to operate his nonprofit organization in financial secrecy for the past three years.
Spencer’s think tank, the National Policy Institute, has not filed financial returns with the federal government since 2013, according to a database of nonprofit records. That has allowed the institute to avoid public scrutiny at a time when the alt-right — the term Spencer coined to describe a movement seeking a whites-only state — has garnered international attention.

As to the post directly above mine, I would classify myself as an American nationalist. I believe that most Americans of every color want to be considered Americans, and to better America as a country--with the possible exception of some illegal immigra. I think that the rhetoric of white nationalists is extremely harmful to this goal, which I believe is a noble one. For that reason we should strongly disassociate ourselves from these types--because enabling them will alienate the millions of other Americans who strongly agree with us.
While this sounds noble and good, the reality is even if white people don't play the identity politics game everyone else already is. White nationalism is a reaction to that.
The 2016 election divided more clearly along racial lines than any others. A majority of white people voted for Mr. Trump. Every minority group voted for Hillary, by large-to-enormous margins.
If you want America to become great again and stay great, you'd better hope white people stay a pretty decent majority of the population.

I find it interesting that people who either support or understand the want for white nationalism can't fathom the idea that many white business owners would rather hire white workers to maintain their companies culture in the same manner. Anyone who has ever managed people or owned a business knows that culture is a huge part of an organized team, sometimes moreso than technical skills.

I see this post I made was completely ignored. So all you downtrodden masses, explain to me how America is going to stay great when minorities vote overwhelmingly for exactly the policies that are going to kill the golden goose?

I said what I meant. Those people would generally want no government intervention, and hence be opposed to Affirmative Action. My point was that black people are at some amount of a disadvantage, because in the US many people would still rather hire white workers to maintain the current culture. A common argument, though I did not see it stated by anyome here, is that managers or owners actually would prefer to have the worker most qualified. Though this is true for some managers, it is still extremely common for owners or managers to favor people who they think would fit into the culture, even if that workers is somewhat less qualified than another candidate. Which in many cases results in more white hires, giving whites an advantage. However, I do acknowledge the importance of maintaining a strong culture to be effective, but recognize that this hurts many people unfairly, since judgements can be made without actually knowing the person.
I did not state what I think should be done about this, because I think this is a very complex topic if you consider all viewpoints.

I believe it was generally higher than in that election.
It's not a black-white thing(get it?) at this point, but a simple fact that the Democrat party has a monopoly on minority vote that is slowly changing in many ways. The hope with Trump precisely is that more minorities get turned on to voting Conservative.
Quote: (12-01-2016 09:50 PM)weambulance Wrote:2004 was another climate and much less racially charged. Race became a big thing under Obama more than anything(started after Katrina in 06' though). So yes with Trump the change should be there. He himself consistently brags about how he'll help get minorities off welfare and into the workplace while helping their communities. This is the hope that we have in him. Just tonight he was arguing about UNIFYING the country. Because we're Americans. And that the media and the people in D.C. are the ones dividing us by race, occupation, place of birth, etc.

Yes, the minority vote for the R ticket was slightly higher this year than in 2012. But it was much lower than 2004. Gosh, I wonder what shifted the minority votes so bigly in 2008?
I suppose we could all sit around, sing kumbaya, and wish for racial unity. Hey, I hope we do come together. Contrary to claims of about half the thread, I am not a white supremacist and I don't hate minorities.
But I'm also not going to support importing them by the boatload when I know they're just going to go on welfare at extremely high rates and vote democrat, which will implement the exact policies that will kill the golden goose.

I've already said I think we need to stop immigration period for quite awhile. We do not need more people in this country. But if we're going to allow immigration, where are they going to come from?
Are we going to keep up this scheme?

Realize enforcement of the current laws on the books make it hard for those who can and realize most immigration stop usually in the home country. It's pretty damned hard to get even a Visa to the United States.
My own family thankfully came from money(relative to the rest of the country as "rich" there means middle class here) so we were hurried through compared to everyone else and their mother that buys the American dream abroad(this mentality is still very much alive American branding as the country of opportunity has stuck).
And in my humble opinion there's a lot of land to settle as it is. There are backwater towns that are dying with less than a 100 people in them at times. If anything immigration should be allowed from a high tier group of immigrants so they can help to a degree colonize these areas that need development. And once jobs start coming back those factories and that industry will need space. What better than those ready to accept those values that made this country great?

Why do you think the left is failing hard? It's precisely because the left has annoyed the hell out of everyone(including even the average college liberal) with identity politics. You see people visibly gagging at the BLM losers chanting and reposting about how ineffectual and retarded they are(going into libraries and going off about oppression). Only on sheltered Ivy League campuses(excepting Dartmouth and a few others) are people really backing the narrative.
Most Americans could give less of a shit about race. Everyone is tired of it. Fuck this forum is even tired of it which is why we're airing it all out here.

And you know what else? Just because everyone else is doing it doesn't mean we should. Do you really want to emulate the SJWs and BLM losers with identity politics? Are you going to approve the anti-masculinity narrative because everyone else is doing it(or bash on the very concept of women rather than the culture that surrounds them with those ideas and toxic programming)?
We're not doing it because we know we are better than them. Because we're damned exceptional. That our ideas are enough to push us through. That's why we won. We had the better message. All they had was an aging old crone. That was "female".

It's not pacifism they're coming with hand guns of "YOU'RE A WHITE MALE!!!!111" and we have the tanks of actual ideals and values. And that is not synonymous with white. Christianity, constitution, philosophy, history, and action maybe, but being a certain skin tone no. It's because "White" people developed the Renaissance and Enlightenment ideals that we live here today. It wasn't simply because they were white.

You didn't really answer my question. And I can see you don't understand why it's a problem that we prioritize immigration from those countries at the top of the list. It ain't because the people are non-white. It's because they come from poor countries with a corruption-tolerant culture. Is that the kind of culture you want to inject into America en masse?
Quote:Quote:Personally I'm for limiting the right to vote based on a variety of factors(think Starship Troopers), but that's neither here nor there. Which is why I'd be heavily in favor of this or some other demonstration of the value an immigrant can add. Not everyone should be allowed to immigrate only those who deserve too(much like how I believe that those that deserve the vote should get it). We talk a lot about bringing value into ourselves so why not expand that mentality as a country.
That doesn't even get into the IQ argument, because I know how triggering that can be. It's not as if we make people get IQ tests before coming here anymore.

Also, I stand by my assertion that we don't need more people. We're in a jobs crisis. If there is work in rural areas, Americans can move there. We don't need more people when our economy is total shit.

Re: the term "white", perhaps you should consider the model of nested tribalism. Whites are not unique in having a lot of internal strife. Hispanics in America are the same way, as are other groups. Talking about whites, hispanics, blacks, asians, etc is just a shorthand way of talking about broad tribal groups. And whites are by far the least united because we haven't been as indoctrinated by cultural marxists as other groups. We've been labeled the enemies and oppressors of minorities, and it serves the cultural marxists' aims to keep us divided.

It's so nonsensical that even decades of propaganda havn't been able to turn up into down and convince people that more immigrants will not lead to less opportunity for native citizens.
Why do some people seem to think all nations are inherently obligated to have some form of immigration? Again, more cultural marxist indoctrination.

As I've said before, the West is coming to the point that most jobs are government or corporate make-work positions and the tax burden on the truly productive industries are enormous.
We no longer need millions of low skilled nobodies to dig mines and plant potatoes. We don't even need high skilled somebodies to develop software and robotics. We just need to invest in our own people that are already here.
