White Man's Guilt

[Alex K]

Absolutely, but in order to fully serve the PC agenda, you also have to feel guilt about being a  heterosexual man.

FTFY

Right. I forgot about the gay agenda!

[BrianSoddingBoru4]

I have a question:  What is the possible point of your moronic question?

Boru

Dear Sodded,

I asked because I read this piece of news...

http://www.wistv.com/story/34164435/laws...eople-food

And also, I'm reading this at the moment,

http://www.douglasficek.com/teaching/phi...aldwin.pdf

And finally, because Americans love to teach other nations how they should live.

Ok, now can you tell me what either the article about 'black people food' or a 51 years old piece by James Baldwin has to do with your question?

You'll want to be careful about that. I once forgot about the gay agenda, and I was forcibly gang-colour coordinated by a particularly stylish group of militants.

RENO, Nev. (AP) - Madeleine Pickens wanted the African-American chef she recruited from the country club she owns in Southern California to cook "black people food" - not "white people food" - at her rural Nevada dude ranch and wild horse sanctuary, according to a federal lawsuit accusing her of racial discrimination.

Do not blame me. I was not there. I did not do it. My history has nothing to do with Europe or the slave trade. Anyway it was your chiefs who sold you to me. I was not present in the middle passage.
I am not responsible for the textile mills of Manchester, or the cotton fields of Mississippi.

So, how can a man born in Finland be responsible for textile mills of Manchester, or the cotton fields of Mississippi?

The essay written by Baldwin is more than 50 years old, but from the comments I read in the internet (on American news browsers), white people will be guilty for eternity of the black slavery...

and then, children of interracial marriages, should they fill white man's guilt?

As an American explain to me, what is wrong, oppressive, racist in saying 'black people food'

[Crossless2.0]

From the AP article:

Madeleine Pickens wanted the African-American chef she recruited from the country club she owns in Southern California to cook "black people food" - not "white people food" - at her rural Nevada dude ranch and wild horse sanctuary, according to a federal lawsuit accusing her of racial discrimination.

Armand Appling says the wealthy philanthropist and ex-wife of Oklahoma energy tycoon T. Boone Pickens told him fried chicken, BBQ ribs and corn bread would be perfect for the tourists who pay nearly $2,000 a night to stay in plush cottages, ride horses and take Wild West "safaris" on ATVs at her Mustang Monument Wild Horse Eco-Resort.

Another missed opportunity. Just think of all the chitlins that food budget could have purchased! Ms. Pickens could get her 'black people food', and I'm sure the assholes shelling out $2000/night to scare the hell out of those magnificent wild Mustangs I used to see every day outside my window would be delighted, as well. Miserable pricks!

White Guilt is like the doctrine of original sin, but for white people.

Some white people from a long time ago did bad things so all white people, regardless of whether they are descendants of those people (which shouldn't matter anyway), should feel a sense of remorse and be forced to atone for the acts of their ancestors (or non-ancestors) of the same race.

A white person today feeling guilty over such things makes about as much sense as a white person today feeling proud of the fact that white people invented the airplane, telephone, and radio; in other words, it makes no sense.

What people should feel guilty about is failing to recognize that reality to some people is not the same reality to others.

I can't answer as an American, but what is wrong with it is that there is no such thing as 'black people food'. The phrase implies that all black people eat the same kind of food...that the Maasai in Kenya have the same diet as the Zulu in South Africa who have the same diet as black Americans in Louisiana. When you paint with so broad a brush you reveal a basic ignorance that the differences in people go far, far deeper than skin colour. And that, my friend, is precisely what racism is, you ignorant wretch.

Three guesses as to what African Americans are? Are they N words or some tribal enjoyment put there for the entertainment of their massas? Or could it be they are Americans? Probably being brought up on a healthy diet of Burgers and french fries.

So riddle me what black food is supposed to be in this context. He's not fresh from Africa, apart from Africa harboring many cultures and as many different cuisines.

Sometimes I'm really amazed over the simplicity of people.

as for the notion of white guilt no ones blaming the Finnish for American slavery and it's stupid to think anyone is seriously the right wing need to get fucking perspective

As for white guilt again always find it funny that often the same people who say white shouldn't be guilty  spend a awful lot of time inventing apologetics for slavery. Or writing articles seemingly don't blame me articles it's almost as if the mere mention of slavery strikes a nerve to people who are supposedly not guilty.
