Per our census regulations, those Middle Eastern folks are white, too.

I called my dad who turns 79 tomorrow and told him the stat. One liner he issued is how I felt about the shrinking as it pertains to my 15 daughter.

We also spoke about how baby boomers are a curse word yet will not be around to take the blame sooner or later. Who will it be?

I agree. That stat isn't mind blowing at all when you do the math.


All they are doing is essentially dividing the total population % by a little over 3.

So if every single person in this country was white, white males over 35 would make up a little over 30% of the population. And 19% is supposed to be scary?

This whole thing is ridiculous and banking on ignorance of those who read it to push a false narrative that white males over 35 shouldn't have any influence in todays America

This is literally one of the dumbest I've heard in a while

Saying they are "white guys running the show" is like saying that dark haired people have run the show, because only a fraction of them have blonde hair.

We used to talk about the Italians, and the Jews, and the Irish, and the Polish, etc. now we don't see that distinction any more. It's just wite guys and non-white guys.

Here's the truth: race is a construct, especially as it is applied in political terms in the US. Eventually, and pretty soon, the races will be so mixed that it will lose all sense of meaning whatsoever. In fact, to anyone with any sense, we are already there. It only matters to race hustlers and Democrats.

No, it's not. There are differences between people from different parts of the world beyond physical appearance that are a part of genetics.

That's the plan.

It's just a further attempt to divide people. Separating "people of color" from "white people" hasn't been good enough so they had to separate white men and white women and then even further take out white men under 35 to make you feel even more alone.

There's three kinds of lies. Lies, damn lies, /'d statistics.

Sucks how many of that % are white guilt having pussies that helped elect dabama and usher in the PC over common sense era. If only there was a great man that gives no fricks and isn't afraid to say things that need to be said in order to make America great again

You missed the second part of my statement. Furthermore, racial make-up is a clinal distribution. Of course there are regional differences between people from different parts of the globe, but we are not able to be placed in one of three pots, caucasoid, mongoloid, and negroid, much less two: white and non-white.

Seems to coincide with the decline of America. I'm sure that's a coincidence though.

If America is declining, it is because of pussies like you that love to make superficial excuses. The minorities aren't the reason you stuck in some shite job, that is a "you" problem.
