    World War 3 and bunkers.......cmon. Hillary failed so ice the bunker plans and Godzilla defense turrets

    http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-election-reaction-putin-idUSKBN1341AR


    Simple dialouge and trade deals from with Russia will shut most of the doom and gloom up in an instant.


    If the western world moving away from the "Left", its a good thing for everyone. Two notches further right and I'll be personally happy.
    Of course, how you interperate "Left and "Right" is all down to your social programming.

    As this chart shows, lumping the wretched left and right (and their mainstream media w4nkerati) into one unhappy category, the two wings of the same infected bird.
    That I wager, will suit most decent ideology-free people on earth.

    This thread is going to turn out like the Brexit thread, just watch.

    Awww... I was looking forward to Godzilla defense turrets.

    I think that you are totally misreading Russia's take on Trump.

    I think "Left" and "Right" are unhelpful stereotypes. As you say, people all have their own take on them (and associated baggage). This is why they end up in the same category on the graph. You are, btw, suggesting that being free from ideology is a good thing. I think it's a bit more complicated than that.

    Well if certain people treat being a white male like they have some kind of original sin I can see how that might follow.


    We could have some fun satire to come

    With regards to there being 48% of the population that failed to vote; Part of that is because, AFAIK, Voting day is not a national holiday in America. Personal circumstances may preclude people from being able to vote, and, for whatever reason, leave them unable to Participate.

    It's still going to be very interesting to see what comes, also rather a bit scary, but hopefully it won't go completely off the rails, what with it being and Entirely Republican government with no real ability to check their advances.

    They have some kind of original responsibility. Because like it or not, being a white male still tends to come with privilege. In the past it came with a lot of privilege, which current white males are still coasting on a bit.

    Now of course you cannot help it if you are a member of a historically privileged race and gender, but you are still enjoying its fruits. So in the interest of being an egalitarian human being, you have in your own small way some responsibility to give less privileged gender and skin colours a bit of a hand in catching up.

    What we see however is a bunch of disenfranchised poor white males being angry that that they have been losing what they used to think of as their privilege. That really sucks hairy donkey balls and all, but what's essentially been happening is that poor white folk in the rust belt of America have been experiencing what it's like to be a black guy or a native American or a woman fifty years earlier. That doesn't mean that they should just suck it up; after all black people or native Americans or women shouldn't have to suck it up either, so why should white males? Everybody should be experiencing the privileges and opportunities that come on the back of their hard work and that of their ancestors. But there does seem to be a sense of entitlement with some white people that it's only suddenly wrong and a problem when it starts happening to them: when they lose what they think of as their privilege: "They (immigrants, women) took OUR jobs" etc. Society didn't seem to need radical change when blacks and women still knew their place, which was one step behind the white males.

    White men built western civilization. It's their creation. Other races have built their own and the men in those enjoyed the same standing within their own respective civilizations.

    As for white privilege in general that's some regressive leftist idea which fits their narrative of the white race – especially white men – being the enemy and evil doers.

    It is very much politically correct and in fashion to hold such views today.


    By the way, the attack on white people and white culture in general by the regressive left is precisely what is fueling – if we're unlucky – could turn real nasty. I've said this many many times in the past.

    No they don't white privilege is simply a Horseshit buzzword dreamt up by the authoritarian left to justify policies that are racist by definition. Guess what attributing something like "privilege" to someone based on their skin colour, without any evidence, is called racism. It's quite frankly disgusting and is just another horrific justification for another form of racism and sexism, just one that is socially acceptable at this moment.

    Everything you state is simply conjecture based on an incredibly narrow minded view of the history of racism and sexism ( on which you are 1000 light-years away from the reality), not evidence.
    Quite frankly what sickens me most is that you have the horrendous delusion that you are somehow enlightened in this view. What worries me most is people like yourself think you are doing the right thing, genocidal people at least thought they were carrying out some necessary evil, I.e they understand they are committing evil, people with your ideology don't.

    What happens is this stupid situation of white guilt and reverse racism. And actual racism is evil and you do not answer an evil with another evil. You lost every ounce of respect I had for you and confirmed yourself as an outright bigot when you retorted to my quote of Milton freidman with "white male privilege" a while ago in the brexit thread. You judged the man's arguments on the basis of his percieved whiteness without understanding anything about how the man grew up, where he came from and with how little. That's racism and I'm surprised you never figured it out.

    Like I said you probably think you are an enlightened and unbiggoted person with views that will help mankind and that is what scares me most is this generation of people believing things that are fundamentally wrong whilst simultaneously believing they are doing good and have come to be enlightened above their fellow man.

    Wow just heard a reporter describe rioting leftists as "letting off steam"

    Then I hear if you’re a Muslim you can't do anything about it you're a Muslim :duh: like as if it is some kind of race. I think you'll find bonnie that if you renounce Islam you are an atheist or if you convert to something else like Hinduism or something you are an Hindu or something.

    Ok, you know I think you've said a bit much. There's a good damn reason Nexxo (and I) know white privilege is real.

    We're not white, and we've had to pay for it all our lives. There's no teacher like experience and discrimination. Nexxo has shared on it in the past, and now I will.

    I'm half Seminole and can't easily pass for white. My family is darker than me even. We got called wood n*ggers, asked if we drank Sterno, all the stereotypes. We even had the Klan burn a cross on our front lawn. All this because our genetics were different. Hell, we were here first. Get off our land.

    Just because you don't suffer because of it doesn't mean that others don't. And denying the validity of their experience invalidates your entire argument.

    You've got it wrong, Kay. Nobody suffers more than fat white men, and it's everyone else's fault.

    That's called being targeted by racist dickbags and suffering actual racism and has nothing to do with whether white privilege exists or not.

    You don't know that white privilege exists you know racism exists and you answer that racism by attributing an innate quality to all white people in return. And here's reality and it's blunt the chips on your shoulders aren't evidence of what you choose to believe. You do realise I have read the exact same rebuttals, just change the "races", from white nationalists who are convinced of white genocide.

    Or do I need the right colour people on my side because of how deep some on this forum are into identity politics.

    Seriously? Just this week I had to endure someone suggesting that my people deserved to get slaughtered and subjugated because they weren't as advanced as the invaders. And the guy did know my heritage.
