We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.
These folks want white people exterminated (h/t Moonbattery.) That's downright mean - and not multi-cultural at all.
Given the hardships and injustices of their slave ancestors, American descendants of Africans should thank their lucky stars that they ended up being born in America instead of the violent, corrupt, crappy AIDS-ridden place that most of Africa is today. Heck, I am grateful that my ancestors were driven away from England by government edicts, and England isn't all that bad even though it's getting worse and worse.
The following excerpts will give you a taste of the book:
Coffee: "For the most part, white people love Starbucks, although they will profess to hate how the chain is now a multi international corporation."
Organic food: "Because of the balance of global wealth and power, there is a general assumption that white people are pretty shrewd. And for the most part, history has proven this to be true. But white people have one great weakness: organic food."
Having black friends: "...an abundance of black friends (defined in white culture as two) also enables a white person to be the resident expert on African-American issues when there are no black people around."
Multilingual child: All white people their children to speak another language. There are no exceptions."
Dinner Parties: Outside of dictatorships and a few murder trials, there might not be a more rigorous judgement process in the modern world."
I love that the bio on the back cover includes the fact that he is a Ph.D dropout.
If you were born pinkish and peruse that book, you will realize how much of your life is a cultural cliche. Ouch. (Sorry - forgot how to write an accent aigue)
And if such racist white-haters have one drop of "diversity" in their hearts, they might benefit from Brookhiser's classic The Way of the Wasp. We WASPs need understanding, tolerance, and acceptance just like everybody else. We're a minority, ya know. Or almost one. Most of my ancestors were serfs, but serfdom and service to the State and the Lords is not my cup of meat.
Honestly, I am so sick of race. It is just plain stupid. I am part American Indian. Nobody cares about race anymore except the race-mongers and the race-hustlers and college admissions offices. It's pathetic.
Anyway, between those two cultural treatises I linked, those angry black people would discover that white folks lead lives of cliche at least as much as they do themselves. Sheesh. I thought racial hatred and anger were out of fashion in the Obama era.
He's a race hustler pure and simple. It should be noted that the organizers of this "conference" vigorously and immediately denounced his comments in the strongest of terms. That guy you saw in the background nodding his head was his son.
its a fact that the natives were fine until you whiteys from spain came and you were never invited but you all have a habbit of that!no country with people of color likes you guys!everybody here plus everywhere else wants your ass dead!you guys have fucked everybody over with no remorse and you shouldnt be surprised how black people feel when you call us black!do you even know what the color black looks like?its not your cocksucking right to call us anything else but what we are and the word nigger is what slaves were called and i dare you bitches to try that enslave shit!we are built to survive slavery and we did and we are dominating everything!whites love screwing each other and raping murderers!we have a right to be lazy and not want to work cause we did all your hard work as slaves working sun up til sun down free!400 years bithces!
Those folks who want to exterminate my pale, mottled, and unwholesome skin tone need to learn more about us, and try to understand us better. Empathy, understanding, all that good stuff. Here's a start:
