…Like, what kind of “history” or “rights” are they trying to ‘hold on to’? It’s a ‘legacy’ and history of being “successful” in oppressing a people. A people who are now: doctors, lawyers, actors, PRESIDENTS and all KINDS of swag. Who, (even back THEN) became inventors of countless things. That said…where’s the ‘legacy’ and (whatever/anything) they are trying to preserve, holding on to? It’s been ghosted. So what? A legacy of years of oppressing a culture/s, which, in turn, left you without a ‘culture’ but rather, artifacts that the government itself (not the people you hate), made null-and void? Help me with the logic behind it all, please. Let’s get real about this. In addition to what I said in my spiel at ToriSpilling, racism is an excuse and fear of apply yourself to the white privilege you are given (as a result of your legacy), and the comfort and laziness of it all: a collection like-minded energies and spirits, screaming about a past that’s been ghosted (rather than cultivated). What are Jews and blacks supposed to do in this 2017: Go lay down for you? GTFOH. It aint goin’ back to the way it was, lil’ cous….You KNOW that’s not gonna happen. You don’t have a fight. You only have a fight with yourselves and the kicking and screaming you’re doing by getting out here and not taking hold of your privilege. P.S. Stop calling these guys (who chose to be) losers “supremacists.” There aint NOTHIN “supreme about them, what they subscribe to, how they think and what they do.
Furthermore, if black people can’t be out in these streets battling for their forty acres and a mule (as promised sans slavery), then what are white nationalists trying to hold on to? There are no more (knowing and willing) slaves. Get over it. Or hand blacks their “heritage” of that mule and some land.
