Time For Whites To Wake Up

[Something completely different]

Yes it is. Because it's also the most religious place in the US. The South was a lot less religious before the American Civil War. Since then the South went all religious because they were in a perpetual state of crushing poverty for a century.

Explaining the historic development that lead to the current situation does not justify the current situation.

Opiate of the masses.

I hate Karl Marx. Reading Karl Marx`s 19th century categorising sterotypical clean prussian german is like trying to eat a giant, old, dry and covered in dust rag.

Yes, the entire country had a problem with slavery. I just don't see why I should take the blame and feel guilty because some other motherfuckers that died decades and decades before I was born had slaves.

The entire country? I might not know as much about the US as others, but I do know that the south was agriculuraly dominant whilest the north was industrialised and had a big service sector. And that the responsibilities resulting out of the horrors of slavery for the north are that they profited economicaly through the manifacturing of goods for which the raw materials were produced in the south - oppertunism.

Should I personally blame you for the Holocaust?

Not personaly, (ike the brain lame A Theist did) but I am fully aware of the responsibility that comes with being of German nationality. I dont moan about the holocaust, ww2, the enslavement of the polish people and the attempted destruction of their culture aswell as I dont moan about the treatment of the french. I actively work on learning out of those mistakes, and so does the rest of our country.
We are the biggest supporter of Israel on the continent.
We have a decleration of friendship which politicaly and culturaly bounds us together with France.
We are the biggest investor and supporter of the polish economy.
We are trying to get a decleration of friendship with Poland.
We are today the one of the least antisemetic countries in Europe.
We still interact with Russia on a close level due to our historic responsibilities even when others dont.
Our constitution forbidds the sale of weapons to dictatorships.

Genearly speaking, no matter how you see the results, at least we tried to learn from our history.

What did you do?

Yes it did. And it was illegalized before I was born. I had nothing to do with Jim Crow laws.

I am not responsible for Ausschwitz. But I am responsible to commit myself to never letting it happen again.

Of course it is. The funny thing though is if you compare the average salary of white families in the North with those in the South, we make about the same amount of money. If you compare the average salary of black families in the North with those in the South the average southern black family makes a little more than their northern counterparts.

But EVERYWHERE whites make more than blacks. There are just, percentage wise, more blacks living in the South. Hence southern states are poorer.

And why is it that blacks make less money in the south?

Same reason.

"38%
Percent of Mississippi's total population that was black in 2010. Mississippi led the nation in this category followed by Louisiana (33 percent), Georgia (32 percent), Maryland (31 percent), South Carolina (29 percent) and Alabama (27 percent)."

Is it not because the conservative dominatd political arena rejects science and education as "satanic evolutionis work" against the word of god?

Ever heard of Sundown Towns?

Sundown Towns: A Hidden Dimension of American Racism

From Maine to California, thousands of communities kept out African Americans (or sometimes Chinese Americans, Jewish Americans, etc.) by force, law, or custom. These communities are sometimes called "sundown towns" because some of them posted signs at their city limits reading, typically, "Nigger, Don't Let The Sun Go Down On You In ___."

Guess which state had the most Sundown towns.

It was Illinois.

Pointing at others when confronted with your own mistakes does not justify your own mistakes.

You did a lot of research on the South, eh? Or did you just blindly accept the myths portrayed in popular media?

The south is not portraied in our popular media because we couldnt care lass and have our own european sterotyps ranging from the lazy spaniard, the sleazy italian, the posh brit, the gemütliche french, the humorless german, the nude scandinavian and poor polish man.

What I learned about the south, I learned through internet eduction, partaly from a book by christopher hitchens and through the 2 years in highschool in which we do american history.

I'm a white atheist male with a college degree. My GPA at graduation was 3.85/4.0. But the stereotype is I'm an uneducated dolt because I'm southern. The town I live in was called by some magazine, Time or something like that, the most educated small town in the US a few years back. (less than 100,000 population)

Individual accounts do not make a case for an entire region.

But I'm done beating my head against the wall. You guys win. You are successfully making me shut up and not point out the hypocrisy I've seen my entire life.

What hypocracy? I also laught abut black crack addict gangmurderer big dick jokes.

Honestly if anyone would look at this without the bias we're taught from birth you start to see a lot of shit that starts to not make sense.

the notion that stereotyps come into existance hrough bias is a wrong notion.
