Wow. Is that all that's stopping you?

Pretty sad.

Never mind equality and the dignity of each human being. It's that damn piece of paper getting in the way of our progressive utopia!

I'm fine with this trade off.


Not what she has in mind.

At the same time, a denial of the franchise to white men, could see a redistribution of global assets to their rightful owners. After all, white men have used the imposition of Western legal systems around the world to reinforce modern capitalism. A period of twenty years without white men in the world's parliaments and voting booths will allow legislation to be passed which could see the world's wealth far more equitably shared. The violence of white male wealth and income inequality will be a thing of the past.

Reeducation camps for white men! How dare they think freely with their whiteness and maleness!

So eliminatation of the right to free speech, right to carry firearms was already part of the Progressice totalitarian agenda. The author of the OP wants to eliminate their right to vote and own property. The poster in quotes wants to send them to reeducation camps.

Democrats used to laugh at me when I said liberalism is no longer their party's philosophy. These aren't liberal ideals. What is outlined above are totalitarian progressive ideals. Real liberals today vote libertarian or republican.

Modern progressives don't want a free society. They hate freedom of expression. They want a dictatorship, and they want to imprison people that disagree with them or even questions them.

0 taxes withheld state or federal.


Most wealthy white males don't pay their fair share of taxes as it stands now.

this just goes to show you that most of the spheres of modern "social justice" are really just cultural Marxism that are pushing (directly or indirectly) for economic Marxism. i'll give the author credit: at least she's honest about her true goals (economic Marxism)

The problem isn't that they're not educated, it's that they're improperly educated. They need to be educated again in the right way, "reeducated" if you will. Perhaps we could set up camps for this righteous endeavor in order to make a more unified voting populace.

Huffpo just writes garbage to provoke reactions so they can turn around and say "you see! Whites/males/conservatives are every "-ist" we say they are!"

Just ignore it. That site is the definition of "fake news". Their "journalist" are hipster losers in a coffee shop.

You do understand that "equality and dignity of each human being" is the primary focus of progressives. The right is definitely not about equality.

I'll give up my vote for not paying taxes. If it's not my money, you can do whatever the hell you want with it.

Wow, I'm not suggesting dictatorship style reeducation camps. I make this observation - in my sociology classes in college, there were few if any white males in attendance (and definitely not conservative white males). We need more social science education in the schools and not just to those students who already understand equity and fairness.

And what, exactly, would that "fair share" be, Heather?

Just.. MORE?
