My personal favorite:

Plan for the future


Part of burning down a society is removing history and adding uncertainty for the future, which makes the present the only thing that matters.

White people are so racist, they have the unmitigated GALL to invest and save and consider future consequences for current actions.

They are stating that one of the biggest thing that separates us from animals (abstract thinking / awareness of time) is a bad white people problem.

Please someone who is not white, tell me this whole thing is hogwash. I need to regain some faith in my fellow man.

Planning for the future, providing for your family, providing financial security are clues of whiteness?



Keep in mind this stuff is not being crafted by everyday black people, who believe in most of these things (even if there are issues with some of them in the black community).

They're crafted by academics (some black, some not) who believe liberal society is unable to bring financial security and healthy family settings to minority communities. They're wrong, liberal society is the only thing that can do so, but because it requires individuals to do the work (which some aren't), liberal society is the problem.

Thus, rather than doing the work of promoting more secure, healthy families in minority communities, we'll just eliminate the idea that nuclear families are good or to be desired. And when someone goes "here is a very well-conducted study showing the value of the nuclear family" - we'll eliminate statistical analysis as well.

Perhaps the best visual for what's going on right now in America is that of a child, realizing they can't win at game with fair and well established rules, turning over the board.

no no no wrong angle

they destroy language so that instead of being able to promote that as a good thing, it's flipped into a negative concept

and "nuclear family privilege" was born

Yeah, I had to double check the various links to make sure I was on a Smithsonian website. I don't know what to think.

Good things are bad because good things give you an advantage... even if you worked hard for those good things. Someone else didn't work hard and they don't have that advantage. The system is rigged against them.

So using their logic, we should be expecting a similar document on Blackness from the Neo Nazi's ?

they've polluted the idea for sure

there are CLEARLY privileged in this world, but they've just tried to shite on ANYTHING that separates people

look, as a kid who grew up poor in a single-parent household, i experienced privilege for sure (especially once i went to rich kid Barbe). now just for clarification, i'm not comparing myself to those who have experienced other sorts of under privileged existences (especially racial ones), just saying i have personal experience with this. the only reasons things didn't turn out very bad for me were genetic and my mom understanding how to raise me. i mean shite, we almost lost my brother.

it's just seriously gross to me to have people try to spin the optimal behaviors i missed out on in a negative light simply b/c of jealousy. we should be promoting the more optimal behavior and certainly not trying to disparage it

I’m pretty certain they need to speak with the descendants of the immigrants of Ireland, Italy, and Germany.

I was raised as a proud Irish-American. My wife is a proud German-American.

I usually just roll my eyes at these sort of tweets and graphics, but this is a major museum putting its name on this. You’re offending a lot of Americans that are proud of their immigrant heritage.

I can say as someone who has spent decades researching and studying Nazi Germany and the Holocaust, the way this “Museum” talks about white people is the exact same style and language used by the Nazis in 1930s-40s Germany to talk about the Jews.


Downvote it all you want, dumbass. It’s still true. And you can’t argue that fact.

Well you know, this country wasn't founded by a bunch of pussies. It certainly took a fair amount of balls to risk everything up to and including their lives....

Not sure how telling everyone it's okay to settle for less and half-arse it all honors their sacrifice....
