Believe it or not. Some jews voted for Hitler.

It is just a matter of time before White folks are put in concentration camps and their assets taken.

Think I am kidding? Well it happened in Nazi Germany, It is happening now in South Afrika, and it is starting to happen here.

History repeats itself they say. But keep those borders open so whites and republicans will become a minority in this country...

Holy mental gymnastics and weaponized grammar, Batman.

There is, at this time, less support for capitalizing white. White people generally do not share the same history and culture, or the experience of being discriminated against because of skin color. In addition, we are a global news organization and in much of the world there is considerable disagreement, ambiguity and confusion about whom the term includes.

We agree that white people’s skin color plays into systemic inequalities and injustices, and we want our journalism to robustly explore those problems. But capitalizing the term white, as is done by white supremacists, risks subtly conveying legitimacy to such beliefs.

Appealing to 14% can buy votes and sway an election.

So how is this equal?

Equality has the word equal in it and if you make special rules for specific races, that is not equal.

Equal means everyone gets the same thing
