Sound familiar?
Like a Hollywood remake of a disaster movie.


But the difference is they won back then and this time they lost and are being held accountable. My how times have changed.

There are mitigating factors that exist now that did not exist back then.  The Internet and its associated media platforms, for one.  The Media itself, for another.  In fact, these two elements of the Fourth Estate not only contributed to the rise of Trump cultism, but are facilitating its downfall, as well, and mostly through their near-instant discovery and transfer of factual information.

Another factor is that women and non-whites have stood up and found their voices since 1898.  This country, founded on slavery, subjugation of women, and conquest by genocide is no longer subject to white male domination in every segment of society.  We now have women and non-whites in the highest levels of government and industry, and they are not about to endure the imposition of second-class citizenship any longer.

A final factor is that the population of Toxic White Males in general is actually shrinking as progressively more culturally enlightened (or "woke") people intermarry and produce beautiful mixed-race children.  These children are less likely to define themselves by one race, and more likely to seek success through education, thus producing more enlightened generation down the line.

We are not yet rid of the Toxic White Males, mainly because most of them seem blissfully unaware of their toxicity, and even revel in the discomfort and suffering they cause others.  But soon (I hope that) their common state-of-mind will be defined more by its detrimental pathology than the faces it hides behind.  Then maybe Toxic White Male Syndrome will have its own place in the DSM and we can listen to those afflicted with it complain about mistreatment and forced cures.  Maybe then they will finally understand what they have been putting us and the rest of the world through.

Maybe i'ms not as enlightened as yourself on the matter but how is the White Male anymore toxic than other males. how is a white aka western culture anymore toxic in its effects than other patriarchal cultures/ civilizations. what do you base that on? have you done a deepstudy of the issue, compared the availible data and came to a conclusion, or is all this just your personal opinion.

Ive always considered western civilization to be quite high in levels of humaness. but thats just my opinon. It's not perfect, but like winston churchill said, “Democracy is the worst form of government, except for all the others.” but maybe i've just fallen for anglo propaganda, being English its fair to say im probably biased in this regard.

I find it interesting, what you're saying in your rant could basically pass as malcolm x speech. nation of islam crowds would eat that up. btw do you believe in the white devil theory?

You're clearly very articulate so maybe you could drop some factual information on us ignorant dummies out here about how the black male, or arab male, chinese male ,russian male , indian male etc stands in relation to the white male in regards to toxity levels.
And after the white males are psychiatrically cured of their wrongthink and destructive behaviors, what you propose is done with all the other toxic persons be they male, female, miscellaneous that need treatment so that we may one day live in the wonderful non toxic utopia in the not to too distant future when the technocratic singularity occurs.

While I usually do not respond to posts that are essentially "Everyone else is just as bad" and "Do you even know what you are talking about?", I will reply to the previous post with all of the depth and breadth it deserves.

Thank you for sharing.  Have a nice day.

So in other words, its all just bluster emotion and personal ideology that needs no justification in actual facts. Ok. Thank you also for sharing.

I think it's so difficult to have any discussion on issues without making anyone feel attacked. :


That's because the left and right have so demonized each other in this early 21st century culture-war that self righteousness has escalated to extreme levels and has polarized the political landscape of discussion. and as they say, in all wars the first casualty is truth. facts of the matter don't seem to matter much to people, you're so easily automatically shot down and your opinion is disregard by the overzealous. And my crime, the horror of it, i dared to express a opinion not in alignment with their own, the far left loves to dehumanize its opponent, i wonder if they learned that trick from the far right, how ironic.

I see only realpolitik and rhetoric, dived and conquer stratagems, various sides looking to become dominant in the ideological power struggle for human minds. people forced to choose sides. in other words radicalization. today, kinda looks like the period before WW2. the calm before the storm. the hillbillies who stormed the capitol are just pawns. The rest of the world laughs at Americas descent into insanity or is genuine concerned. either way its clearly a turning point in history. 20th century was the bloodiest century on record. Sometime i wonder if 21st century will top it. The future sanity of humanity looks pretty shaky at this point.

Might be an opportunity for Donnie T to make some post-Presidential cash. I understand he's short of dough, and I'd certainly pay to watch THAT.

If he's actually a narcissist and powered entirely by ego, would he implode or dissolve or what?

Maybe it wasn't an attack - he may have been simply pointing out the features he was most proud of? :P

I need to draw a line here:
Pointing out some inconsistences in one's expressed opinions is one thing.
Insinuating they represents views they expressively despises is another thing.
The difference between "attacking opinions" (allowed by the rules) and "attacking a person" (forbidden by the rules) lays between them.
Clear?

That would be more likely if it were subtle. Instead I'd argue the glorious irony of Brictoria's post is the way it absolutely, totally cannot be serious.
