SA White Genocide: Alt-right Myth
« on: March 25, 2018, 05:29:07 PM »
The new ideology of white supremacists. Was irked by that Apartheid nostalgia I encountered in that discussion I discussed, wondering what in the blazes that dude was going on about, I have now found two pieces that explain. It's about the fear of the demographic shifts in the US. An attempt to say, see, there are grounds to deny a majority the right of the vote. This is the desperation driving this insane story that SA Whites are targets for Genocide, in SA of all places. Say what you will about SA, but I've lived there. The idea that Whites as a group are in anyway disadvantaged is utter horse-s***.

Your point on demographic shifts in the US is true.  Except it's not just a fear, but a fact.  I don't know the exact year, but I think most millennials already reflect this shift.  California is probably already a minority-majority state.  We might be in the middle of an upheaval related to this fact and Trump and Trumpism are the dying of kicks of this horse.

I guess Australia has bought into the white genocide meme in SA.  I wonder why they don't lay down the same welcome mat for Rohingyas who are definitively victims of genocidal attacks.

Well, that's one view of the matter. You know they call lefties "professional victims". The "manufactured outrage" accusation is tossed around quite some.

But overall conservatives are whinier. Like their vehemence against marriage equality and LGBT - why do others' habits and choices scare them so? It puzzles me that robots can have more freedom than humans.
