Russel Simmons calls his rally "I am a Muslim too", but no white men

Slimeball Simmons is implying mutual exclusivity.

Is Cat Stevens a privileged white male or a Muslim? Does he "oppress" himself?

It only says that only white privileged males are not in danger.

Not really sure what that means exactly but it isn't what the OP seems to have taken away from the article.

It means about as much as a toddler taking two saucepans and banging them vigorously together means, frankly. It's like Simmons is waving a flag around that says "I'm an irritating child, look at me, pay attention to me, coddle me." Seems to be a popular sentiment among the self-described "nothings" of the nation...

It still isn't what the OP and others seem to think it means.

Only when he finds he's still solo at last call.
Cat Stevens obviously is torn between self loathing and self domination... likely many shattered mirrors in his home thanks to knee jerk reactions as he walks past one and catches his reflection.

Oh no, you don't get it. If you buy into the idea in the first place, then simply being white means you are privileged.

So, yeah, in Russell's case it does mean that being white means being privileged by it, so no white people are allowed.

I somewhat agree with you, but probably not in the way you intend your statement. Interpretations are individualized and up to each listener, I'm not going to argue with anyone's personal takeaway from Simmons. My point is simply this: "Who cares what Simmons says?" America has wasted enough time coddling and appeasing these dummies, now is the time to treat them with the same degree of indifference one should show any tantruming brat... only by denying their opinions any value in normal America's day to day comings and goings will this ridiculousness stop. In other words, who's Russel Simmo... oh look, that's an interesting looking cloud.

So now white man are the white devil, how cute.

a reply to: burdman30ott6

It's simple. Simmons never said white men not welcomed.

Anything else is a deficiency in reading comprehension, if they even bothered to read the article.

ETA: Obviously people, you included, care enough to be here posting.

I care deeply about spreading the gospel of apathy, that's pretty much my involvement on these type of topics in a nutshell.

a reply to: marg6043

Apparently.

a reply to: burdman30ott6

Great. It still doesn't have anything to do with what I pointed out.

Must be hard to practice apathy when you feel the need to spread it.

a reply to: daskakik

Meh, I don't worry much about it.

a reply to: burdman30ott6

Thanks.

Last time I checked Islam is a transnational multi color rainbow coalition..

WHITE, black,brown,yellow,pink, and polka dot..

In those infamous words.

What wud Allah do?

True statement. I personally know a white, blonde, Muslim man from Serbia who lives here in the US. Is he excluded in this rally?

Anti-Muslim Nazis in Saudi Arabia Deport 40,000 Muslims.

Saudi Arabia ‘deports 40,000 Pakistani workers over terror fears’

So white people can claim to be any culture they want?

Privilege.

I wonder if this guy has ever heard of the Bosniaks?

Those guys are white, largely anyway.

Pretty racist of this guy to hint that only Arabs, Other Middle Easterners and Africans can be Muslim. Especially when Indonesia and Malaysia are two of the largest majority Muslim countries.

This is too easy, no where does Simmons say that white people are not invited, but keep up the great job on repeating like good parrots.

Lol, tell me more about the nazys.

They thought they were privileged because of the color of their skin.

Interesting factoid that Hitler thought the Jews were a privileged class that were conspiring to hold back the German people.

Adolf Hitler, the first ever social justice warrior.

Good job on having no clue as usual, odd part is you seem to know a whole about hitler.
