in reading cnu's response to an earlier post on bennett's comments, i had a thought. it seems that perspective is everything...and the comedy of america are the historical myths of liberty, freedom, obectivity and justice. in any case, i have felt, for the past two decades, that these differences are irreconciliable (at the collective level) and came up with the following:
the point, nulan (that you correctly - to me and mines'' - identify), is the notion of raising genocide. in point of fact, i would wager that i could find a similar quote from some leading white official/public figure/scholar concerning some so-called non-white group in EVERY single nation on the planet in which whites and "non-whites" share space. in fact, i would wager that i could find a similar quote in EVERY ACADEMIC DISCIPLINE and FIELD OF WORK in EVERY COUNTRY - without exception. the comments would be directed at black, brown, red, yellow - etc. and I could find a similar expression in EVERY CENTURY - backed by a continued institutional practice to affirm this sentiment. these folks would not isolated, but rather LEADERS and ARCHITECTS...but what would that prove - after all, if this were about information and logic, you'd have wrapped this baby up, long ago.
moreover, contemplation of genocide is fundamental to white identity. it's the cauc version of 'waiting to exhale.' similarly, the conflation of blacks and crime is the epicenter of white identity. these fools still believe they live in a democracy and that the founding fathers were on some liberty shit. straight crack smokin'. these are the same folks who raise the spectre of black rapists in a world where white women go OUT of their way to get some rhythm, to put it mildly. it's all about the overcompensation in the face of a debilitating deficiency.
so, when i come across a negro apologist - i wonder what they're defending and compensating for...in other words, are they coming up SHORT or simply in it for the green. if the green is easy to get, they should have no problem articulating an authentic defense of their collective. the rubber hits the road when cats like connerly, armstrong and others need SPECIAL TREATMENT in a competitive BUSINESS environment. it's not fair and it discrimination of the worst order...pimps paying hoes to talk down the competition - that's simply no way to win the playas ball.
why you gotta snatch the smoking jacket and slap the pipe out the mouth of my dignified seignurial privilege thread?

I'm sure your perception of white hegemony gives plenty of comfort the just the right sort of people.

my bad...meanta link to it.
what's my perception of white hegemony? and what "right sort of people" am i comforting? and more importantly, what does any of that have to do with what i said? i smell a funky ad hominem just underneath your keyboard...if you move quickly, you can avoid the funk.
