It's a culture war.

There are no coincidences.

And yet Idris Elba is playing the bad guy in Hobbs &shaw going up against two British whites and the Rock lol etc


Wasn’t he also the bad guy in a Star Trek movie? A team of white guys in the future - with that one half white black girl - defeat a black guy whose physical appearance was so ugly he was unrecognizable.

I was naive enough to think that this Hollywood propaganda started recently, but watching older shows now with a more awareness, it is clear that even older shows were pushing boundaries and political correctness.
I was watching and episode of Bonanza the other day and the entire program was about racism and how when the town found out their invited singer was black, that didn't want him to perform.
Mash, it was all about questioning American motives for the war and pro North Korean digs.

Not their black, African brethren that kidnapped and sold them into slavery to the white people?

Not the other vast tribes of Native Americans that were slaughtering their Native American brethren en masse for thousands of years before we came here? In all our evil ways we inherently knew that we’d kill them all off by disease. Or have you forgotten that history is written by conquerors?

Ok?

Nazi Germany were white Europeans.


Who was vanquished by other whites

USA's ultimate Boogeyman was Russia, which is controlled by whites.


Wrong, the USA’s ultimate boogeyman is Communism and the tyranny that comes with it.

quote:

A predominant white America dropped two nuclear weapons on Asians.


Better than sacrificing hundreds and hundreds of thousands of American lives and millions upon millions of Japanese lives. Tell me, how do you think the citizenry would react if we invaded the mainland of Japan and then word got out that we had two weapons that could have won us the war without one more drop of American blood? Think that would’ve gone over well? I don’t, that’d have gone over like a lead zeppelin.

quote:

You really wonder why whites are viewed as villainous?


Uhhhhh, yeah, I do. For all our faults, us white people have done far more good than bad for civilization.

quote:

Or why white people are easy to paint as villains?


You’re leaving out the fact that probably the two biggest genocidal rulers in world history are Asians but don’t let that get in the way of your projection. And if we’re going strictly off today’s standards, far more crime per capita is not done by the hands of white people.

Sorry if historical truth upsets you.


Historical truth doesn’t upset me, lies from progressives that do not understand history as a whole or context at all is what upsets me. Liars are what upsets me and you are a liar.

Yeah, but let's not forget the FRICKIN JAPS BOMBED PEARL HARBOR FIRST!

I'm surprised you didn't point out the Civil War as an example of how whites are villains.
