I think it's funny...that racial slurs against whites are not the same thing, and that whites shouldn't be offended, e


No one is saying that. Racism is disgusting no matter who does it.

quote:

that those who cry race the most come up with these claims


And who would that be? Lotta straight white male conservatives appear to be crying racism in this thread but you appear to be ignoring that. For all you know a lotta straight white males are also calling out those stuck in the past. I'm also pretty sure it wasn't a minority who started this thread. And before you start with Jesse and Al some perspective please - two people ain't a color.

quote:

they're virtually making an unconscious statement that white people are inherently better, and different rules apply to them.



Who is them? 1. You're making the assumption it's all non-white straight conservatives - could be true but could be false. With the internet there's no way of knowing. 2. the latter part? Holy frickshit batman. White folks are inherently better? On what grounds. Different rules apply? Not really - when it come to the individual a hate crime/racist comments and so on are all the same. When it comes to generalities, when we base things on the history of groups, they're not the same at all.

quote:

None of them will admit it, but that is absolutely the case, and continuing such a stance does nothing but increase the disparity.


How so? Unless you're a bitter arse determined to be proven right in that assumption then every single one of us wants a more equal society than we currently have.

I am in fact mostly referencing straight white males making these claims. They are the ones driven by white guilt to give different rules for minorities to appear to give them a more equal position. But in reality it is just giving them more excuses to use.

We are not in much better shape emotionally than we were in the past in this country, just in the opposite direction. Blacks are more openly resentful to whites now than they have ever been, and I think it's largely because they realize they oftentimes have a lot to gain by doing so, because white guilt apologists have opened avenues for constant racism cries to be met with compensation.


Our race relations are in no way improving, they are just shifting.
