your race baiting doesn't help


How can I race bait against white males ... I'm white (though not male)?

I'm sympathetic to the less fortunate, who in American now happen to almost always be people of color.

So it is ok for white males to have denied literally everyone but white males the right to vote at some point in this nation

no. nobody is saying that

but white males of modern Western culture also have done more for the expansion of rights in minorities and women than any other group in the history of mankind (this is over the past couple hundred years)

you have to give credit where it's due

bit the idea of doing the same to them is ludicrous?

yes

we all agree denying non-whites or women the right to vote is wrong, correct?

denying whites or men the right to vote is just as wrong

I miss real liberals. Real liberals didn't feel threatened by the rights of others to vote, possess firearms, express themselves, or even question their authority.

We need more social science education in the schools and not just to those students who already understand equity and fairness.


White conservatives have figured out that getting a degree in a social sciences field is about as useful as a poopy flavored lollipop.

Liberia is a perfect example of what an America without white males running it would look like. I wish more liberals would visit there.

I own guns. I'm not against anyone expressing themselves (but most here are, liberals and progressives get run off as I should know).

The "authority" we are questioning is white male authority. And, again, I'm not against white males.

One of the greatest bullshite arguments that's ever been sold. You could argue that a super high capital gains tax might hinder investment (it wouldn't?but you could argue that), but even so it wouldn't justify the miniscule current 15%.

And to say that it would hurt lower class investors is horseshite as well, we could just as easily have a progressive tax rate on annual capital gains as we do on income tax.

The idea that money earned is taxed higher than money gained is mind boggling to me. But people seem to love the idea of making money without work so they defend it tooth and nail.

You are correct, in a way, but here's the unpopular truth - we need a wealth tax. No one should have a net worth of ONE BILLION (or for that matter 1/2 BILLION).

Some wrestling guy has ONE BILLION. We should tax that wealth to create jobs. He's not - he's hording his wealth as most of the uber wealthy do, or trying to find a way to cheat working people out of their jobs.


Please go look up the giving plede. The uber wealthy for the most part are pledging to donate their wealth away. Like 60% of the top 12 richest people in the world have done so. I will link it here for year. The myth of the big horrible evil rich person is destroying a lot of this country.

Bill & Melinda Gates, Warren Buffet and many other's that somehow get blamed as villains are great american's / citizens of whatever nation and human beings trying to end disease and suffering. What have you done lately?

LINK

I'll link it for you - go compare that list with the list of richest people in the world and get back to me. The minimum is 51% (majority) of their wealth but most are pledging upwards towards 95%. They earned that wealth and have a right to see where it goes to try and help world. They pay charities, charities pay researches, researchers pay labs, labs pay suppliers who employ factory workers (trickles down...)

Have a nice day

What if we simply say we identify as female? Also, who decides what constitutes white? Is there a color wheel with skin shades that we will have to abide by?

....but in reality progressives abhor free speech, the right to own guns, and apparently (in this thread) want to send white males to reeducation camps and eliminate their right to vote.

That's not "equality and dignity" because progressivism has nothing to do with either of them.

Ah, so you are Healther (rebaltah) and your other alters, so you live off of a trust and don't have a job. And you want others to not enjoy wealth? How noble of you. You should give your trust money to those 'people of color' you sympathize with so much and get a fricking job.
