Time For Whites To Wake Up

[thesummerqueen]

A Theist.
Dear god. It must be so fucking hard to be a white male right now. It's so hard to be the ones who still earn the most money, who don't have to prove themselves in face-to-face interviews, who don't get judged as criminals by outward appearances in comparison.

We don't have to prove ourselves in face-to-face interviews? I've gone to a lot of interviews in my life. I've proved myself in face-to-face interviews for every job I've ever had.

Do I just email an employer, "I'm a white guy. I'm taking this job. See you on Monday."?

Uh, no. Why do you think we don't have to prove ourselves to everyone just like everyone else?

And I've been judged as a criminal a lot of times. Just because I was a young guy. The cops were incredible dicks to me.

Let's start with getting call backs:

And then there is the fact that affirmative action exists for a reason.

No religious groups ever told you that your skin was dark because you were from the race of Cain. No medical/secular/gov't groups ever hypothesized that you were of inferior genes because you weren't white. In fact, I think the only white man ever commonly compared to a monkey was George Bush - that comparison seems to be exclusively reserved for black people, and it took a president of surpassing stupidity, arrogance, ignorance and general fuckwittery for cartoonists to start publishing that.

Yeah it sucks that some people treat other people like that. I've never done that. I do get the blame for that happening though. Why? Because of my race.

Be a grown up and tell the person who is blaming you for shit you never did to stop acting as if you were the one that did it. Then you turn around and be compassionate about the fact that some white asshole DID do that to that person. Compassion is something you can give without having to receive it first.

You poor little white man. What's the problem - someone tell you that you have a smaller dick?

WTF?

He deserved the comment.

It is NOT okay for whites to be demonized. And it is NOT okay to decide that you - the dominant race - must somehow push back against races you have continually marginalized, demeaned and insulted just because a bunch of someones called a spade for a spade. Zimmerman was a racist fuck, and so are you. You and your white power. No one needs a "white power" month or cry, because whites still have all the power.

A Theist marginalized, demeaned and insulted some other race? Well fuck him, then. I don't agree with that.

I don't think he did though. But he sure as hell is going to take the fucking blame for it. That white cracker bastard.

I highly doubt anyone insulted him personally - I'm willing to bet that most, if not all, was him seeing something on the news that irritated him.

No one's going to call you a nigger the second they get angry at you for no fucking reason at all. No one's going to try and deport you because of your skin color the second you get called into a police station and can't find your papers. No one's going to look at you and judge you a criminal walking down the street simply because of the way you're dressed.

And A Theist isn't going to treat anyone like that either. But that white bastard is going to be demonized for the sins of other white assholes that did that to someone somewhere at sometime.

See earlier comment.

I'm a fucking Southerner. I get treated like shit all the time. When I joined the navy I encountered a lot of hatred against Texans and Southerners. People would select us out all the time. I had an instructor in class say to my face, "Are you a Texan? I don't like Texans." With a dead serious look on his face.

In bootcamp some recruits heard my southern accent and did the Deliverance banjo noises at me.

I see shit like this thrown around as entertainment:

Haha. Stupid, inbred Southerners.

I think I know what it's like to be treated like shit for things that have nothing to do with me as an individual.

No one's miming or discussing erecting nooses because you're southern. No one burned crosses in your yard for being southern. No one ever created laws specifically making you, a southerner, have to sit on the back of northern buses or use different water fountains from the yankees. Get the fuck over yourself.

Why is it considered wrong in our society to be racist against minorities but it's ok to be racist against white people?

Why is that socially acceptable? I've been screamed at that I'm a horrible person because white people used to have slaves.

It's not. No one here said it was okay for anyone to ever treat someone horribly for any reason. Our point is that we don't need a "white power" movement because, derp, whites still have all the power.

I've been insulted that I should be disgusted with myself because I've kept the black man down denying him dignity and respect.

Maybe you should ask yourself about why you were told that - is it possible that person was projecting many of the problems he had with people of your skin color onto you? Hello, welcome, you understand now what it's like to be a minority and you correctly find it disgusting. Now understand that minorities deal with that shit every day. We deal with it as atheists. I dealt with it as a Jew. I deal with it as a woman. Not because I did anything, but because I happened to be born some way. Instead of deciding you need to punish those people who are acting out of frustration, maybe you should start thinking about the problems that cause them to be that way to begin with an eliminating them.

Disparity of income.

Disparity of social treatment.

Disparity of education.

But I'm scum because of my race. An evil, sick fucking white asshole.

I would hazard a guess and bet the last $150 I have in my checking account that only a few blacks out of the majority actually think that about you.

But I can't say anything about it or I'm a hate-mongering KKK member.

Bullshit - pointing out mistreatment from any corner is never wrong.

And that's how we're trained from birth in our society. Don't you dare say you're not a bad person because other white people treated minorities wrong. And we're going to talk about it right now. Every fucking day. How you're a bad person. And you better not say shit. Because if you say shit you're a fucking racist.

If you stand up for yourself and say, "Woah. I didn't do any of those horrible things..."

Holy shit. You just fucked yourself buddy.

You seem to be doing well, despite the fact that you're saying it.

Most white people know just to shut the fuck up and act like nothing's going on. Just shut up went someone goes on a rant about how whites are horrible people. Because everyone, including other white people will shit all over you.

Because if you participate in demonizing white people you are intelligent, socially conscious, well educated, mature. You're a good person if you go along with demonizing white people.

It's starting to get a little old to tell you the truth.

Finished crying about how bad your life is now?
