Try to keep a sense of proportion, SIX. Women, blacks, and old folks didn't decide to screw you over by eliminating your job. We (well,most of us, anyway) are all in the same boat, and trying to step on women or men or blacks or whoever is just playing "their" game.

IMHO the only people who do NOT have the same rights as anyone in the USA are the illegal aliens.
Why???
BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT CITIZENS.

I'm not trying to step on anyone. I'm not even blaming women or blacks or old folks. White men outlived their usefulness and then got fucked over. Women, blacks and other minorities were simply the tool used to dispose of them.

What we're witnessing all around us today is the beginning stages of the degradation of society that was always the intended and ultimate outcome of all of this.

TPTB aren't affected, and they won't ever be affected. They own everything and life is perfect in their gated communities. They're fine with everyone murdering everybody else outside of their gates. It's going to get much worse than it is today. We'll look back on the early 2020's and yearn for them.

Oh, but they do. Have you not been paying attention?

How many American citizens are living out on the streets without jobs right now while TPTB in the major cities are housing military aged invaders and begging for more money to house more of them and get them all jobs?

TPTB don't actually give a shit about women or blacks or other minorities either. We're all just numbers to them. And someday soon you too will have outlived your usefulness of putting white males out of power and there will be nothing but the big boot up top that's stomping on all the rest of us, equally. Citizen or non-citizen. As we literally fight and kill each other for the scraps.

What we're witnessing all around us today is the beginning stages [er... more advanced than that!] of the degradation of society that was always the intended and ultimate outcome of all of this.

I agree. More about that in a bit.

So, white men WERE 'in power'? More about that in a bit.

You've touched on a number of aspects where I esentially agree except your focus on "white men being in power".

"White men" were NEVER in power. The best illustration of this was comparing American wealth as piles of thousand dollar bills on a football field, with the 50-yard line being the median. At one end, well, it would be a hole in the ground. At the median, a stack about an inch high. But within a millimeter of the other goalposts, the stack would be MILES high. About 250 miles IIRC, and it's only gotten taller since then.

So, sure, 'white men' had a bit of advantage over everybody else, but white men (as a whole group) never got to decide what industries should be invested in, where should factories be built, how our neighborhoods should look and function, whether there would be competition or socialism or monopolism in our economy, where or even whether they could find a job.

I agree that TPTB are breaking societies apart and they're doing a darn fine job. Once you start breaking bonds between people - married couple to each other and parents to children (divorce), neighbor to neighbor, ethics (criminal v law abiding), language groups, even national identity* - and replace it with so many "intersectional identities" all squabbling for that little bit of extra privilege so nobody feels any commonality with anyone else... then we truly become a broken society of 'all against all'. (Social media doesn't help, all it does is help create "silos" of same-thinking people who are physically distant from each other.)

Anyway, I wouldn't bemoan that "white men have no privilege" or even ment

Oh, just as an aside, I've come to realize that "human rights" is a flawed concept.

Rights are bestowed by governments (which usually means nationality.) The USA doesn't have the power to impose "human rights" on the rest of the world and we don't have the money to grant "human rights" to everyone who manages to sneak across our border. Especially when we don't guarantee "human rights' to our own citizens.

Here's a controversial opinion. There is no such thing as White privilege. Minorities are sold this bill of goods to garner votes. It feeds into what they want to hear. What there is, is culture privilege. After you have explained to the country what culture privilege is, you can explain how being White in America has gained them privilege. How it has helped them get ahead and been a get out of jail free card others don't possess. This is a truth the White working class can understand and accept. I have yet to see the democratic party has figured this out.

We need to stop poking White people to garner favoritism from minorities. It only builds a wall between hard working minorities and hard working White people who need each other.
