Interesting topic. I put this type of thing to bed intellectually a long time ago. To me, the political correctness movement is a way for the corporate/government/academic establishments to shift power to minorities through quotas, sensitivity training, removal of offensive speech, etc. I don't like it. I guess if I was a minority, I probably would.
It is just redistribution. I separate liberals and conservatives in the U.S. this way. The liberals believe in redistribution of power and resources. Conservatives do not. In contrast, moderates, or the undecided voters, don't invest much thought into redistribution. They have other more bread and butter issues.

Do you dare postulate who or whom?
Just sayin.
I think part of it is that people have been conditioned to react so irrationally to news stories that if they did publish such obviously infuriating stories that there could be a backlash which would prove detrimental to those with a significant investment in "political correctness"
The white race??? You fingerprint this as the white race. How is this not racism??
Your posts look intelligent and the wording is first rate but the motives are suspect.
There are people out here who are not interested in Guilt Politics or Guilt Education to default through on the work, moneys, and risks of others. They are beginning to recognize this as a shakedown of others for political reasons...which makes those who use this method highly suspect.
For political reasons...you can use occult racism..concealed, esoteric, covert. And others are seeing that this guilt conditioning and fingerprinting of others is a religion...a devout belief system of some to label others by default. This is politics..and it is occult..hidden from the view of most.
People are beginning to suspect the motives and method of operation when we detect that so many have made cottage industries and careers out of such racism as you are templating here. Standard M1A guilt conditioning. That some people by default owe others...their substance....in perpetuity. This is using racism to fight racism as others have aptly stated here.
Public education/Guilt, conditioning so popular today, is financed by government. This makes government itself suspect in its attempts to default through on this hidden reasoning for votes and elections...particularly in high electoral vote states.
What is going to make this kind of thing exposed for the ridiculousness and racism that it is ...will be when the Black Victims begin to compete in anger and rage against the illegal alien victims who will be the new voting block planned for the purpose of maintaining political power and control....ie...social giveaways/benefits for votes. There will be violence associated with these events. There already is in certain cities. Upon whom will they heap the guilt for this??
This was predicted in certain arenas some 30 years ago. We are seeing it take place before our eyes.
This kind of template by guilt that you are promoting here is the very template of oppression you claim was used on one people by others years ago. Fight oppression with oppression...very sophisticated.
What such guilt conditioning does to people is allow one group to play through unquestioned and unchallenged on almost any topic or issue at the expense of others. Just like a politician. It looks sophisticated and just but it is not. It is a SHAKEDOWN. I for one am not interested in it and will call it what it is. Thanks, Orangetom

suddenly?
this hasn't happened overnight at all. But otherwise, you are spot on.. Is anyone willing to venture down my route that white folks as a race fon't want the race situation inflamed, so we don't bring up race as much even when it's appropriate? I know that I personally, when I point out the victimization of the white race,I get called a racist.
But that doesn't stop me, I have never let other peoples opinions influence my own unless I agreed with them somewhat.
But like I said, This really isn't going to be an important issue within 10 more years. The idea of any PURE race is going to be a joke by then, we will all be mutts, so the idea will be silly within that timespan. Better start thinking about how we will handle the scientific, logical new agers, and the dewy-eyed backpack bomber dreaming of 72 virgins after he does his "act of God"
We live in a peverse age where that man has old ideals mixed with new weapons that can kill thousands, not just dozens, it's a powder keg waiting to blow up, so really, we shouldn't be focusing on race anymore, it should take the backseat to this matter.

Once again you people reply without fully reading what has been typed. What I’ve said is the white race, as a whole, has not taken responsibility for past transgressions.
This is not finger pointing, this is fact.
However, you STILL have White Privilege,
Much of what you’re saying appears convoluted, so I ask that you clarify your statements and tell us exactly how occult racism is a factor in all of this. Moreover, who besides you is seeing occult racism as a religion? Nazis?
No, it will be when angry white males like those in this thread are forced to look in the mirror after they’ve lost everything. Why will they loose it all? Because for too long they’ve been doing something akin to using a band aid to treat a severed head, and have forgotten that the elite whites in power (yeah those who control over 80% of this countries wealth) don’t give a damn about them. When the time comes, everyone will fight for the scraps, and they won’t trade votes for parting gifts and benefits.
The country is broken, it’s your fault, now how are you going to deal with it?

Did the woman in this story who watched black men anally rape then murder her boyfriend, before getting gang raped herself, chemicals poured down her throat and then murdered have "white privilege"- what privilege is that exactly.

She had bleach poured down her throat and her privates to cover up the evidence of the rape. That indicates not only a horrific torture death for the victim, but forethought by that of the animals that killed her.
She was probably in so much pain that she wanted to die. Yet the animals that did it to her will get coddled in the court system to avoid bad race relations.

Thank you, but I couldn’t care less about any of that, especially your opinion that my motives are suspect.
There are people here who are only interested in hypocrisy and not addressing the issues.
but it is your duty as a human being to look at others, regardless of what color, religion or sexuality, and consider their plight and why they do what they do.
However, due to your comfort zone eroding as we speak, (and I’m talking to every single white male in this thread who has proven me right time and time again), you are now forced to play the hand you’re dealt, and you’re starting to realize the hand isn’t that good. However, you STILL have White Privilege, and this is STILL a “white is right” world, even though those on top (most of them white) have neglected you, and continue to do so.

I'm intrigued by this concept of "white privilege." I could have sworn all the white people I know (myself included) got where they did by hard work rather than sitting around feeling all victimized.
