Virginia high school nixes 'white guilt' video after criticism | Fox News




So you take the uneducated minds of young people and plant this slanted BS in their heads?

As if every white American is rolling in cash with nary an obstacle or worry in the world. FYI, there are just as many uneducated, poor white people in America than there are minorities.

And this doesn't broach the issues of absent fathers, the implosion of the black family unit, the negative impacts of the hip-hop culture on black students who want to achieve, or the failure to promote the right people as pillars of minority communities.

Nor does it address the failings of Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson as the supposed "leaders" of these communities, who benefit enormously financially by it and gain by continuing the same.

Well of course. The whole point of liberal education is to indoctrinate, not to educate. It's just like religion. If they can get them young, they can fill their heads with nonsense and it will haunt them for life.
 
Re: Virginia high school nixes 'white guilt' video after criticism

I don't see what's wrong in the video.
 
Re: Virginia high school nixes 'white guilt' video after criticism

What a terrible video, it is actually based in racism and prejudice... talking about racism and prejudices.

Really quite interesting that you would start an incredibly biased and slanted presentation of the situation of racial discrimination and privilege by lamenting the "slanted BS" being given to high school kids.

I saw this picture today. It seems appropriate.

Absolute garbage!

White guilt isn't what we need to be talking about. White fragility is.
 
Re: Virginia high school nixes 'white guilt' video after criticism


Because OP, like the white guy in the picture, is engaging in a dismissive lesson on why a complaint of racism is improper or wrongly guided while simultaneously acting and espousing racist rhetoric.

None of the Social Justice Warriors ever want to address the fact that many Black people succeed when they do the right thing. Racism never stopped Obama from being President, Jordan and Oprah from becoming Billionaires, Thomas from being Supreme Court Justice, Condi or Powell from becoming Secretary of State, Cain from owning a franchise, NDT from being a scientist...the list goes on.
 
Re: Virginia high school nixes 'white guilt' video after criticism



This video might have had some value had it been presented to Congressmen in the 1960's when affirmative action was being debated.

It has very little relevance today.

Black on Black crime is not the fault of "white privilege." The "thug life" is not promoted by white attitudes.

The only thing encouraging white guilt does is perpetuate the overweening sense of minority entitlement that has replaced the struggle for equality and self-advancement we had when dealing with real racism back in the day.

This type of video only serves to justify young minority attitudes that they are right to act out in anti-social and self-destructive ways because "white people made me do it."

I believe some of the SJW crap is actually turning people away from supporting Black people. I know that the whole "Hands up don't shoot" nonsense completely turned me away from believing a ****ing word they say about how unfair everything is and that cops kill them for no reason. When your poster child for police violence is a violent thug who attacked a police officer, your cause has effectively been impeached.
 
Re: Virginia high school nixes 'white guilt' video after criticism

I don't see what's wrong in the video.

Of course you don't. You don't want to face the real issues of the black community because it's the lifeblood of your party's existence.

This is absolutely true. Nobody listens or sympathizes anymore, and that's unfortunate for those who actually do experience actual racism.

The dude in Ferguson was shot for good reason, and the world is better for it. Everybody with a brain agrees with that, and yet they've built a movement based on this thug.

The craziness of it makes my head spin.

White guilt isn't what we need to be talking about. White fragility is.

Right? Good god, listen to these people, whining about their hurt feelings to a group of people who are still having their places of worship burned to the damn ground.

They can't just let go of the idea that everything isn't about them for 10 seconds.

Please, tell me about this "actual racism" that you have experienced in your own life.

I thought conservatives were supposed to be pro-life. I guess not.

Riiiight...

Whites taking offense to having their children indoctrinated with the notion that everything wrong in this country is somehow their fault, and that they should simply allow themselves to be assaulted over that allegation from every angle because of some nebulous notion of "privilege" (which doesn't even really exist, in many cases), is "fragility," which we just need to "get over."

Blacks throwing temper-tantrums and crying "racism" over the implication that they bear literally any responsibility in improving their own fortunes, or that the "ghetto" culture in which they so often choose to immerse themselves may be actively counter-productive to that goal, on the other hand, is not.

That makes perfect sense! (Not) :roll:

Prove that this is exactly how cultural sensitivity is taught. In your proof, show that whites have no significant privileges over of people of color who, all other factors being equal, are in the exact same state of life.

The tone-deafness is strong.

Black radical racist and terrorist organizations like The Black Panther Party are "heroes," who are openly glorified in the most widely marketed and televised event in the United States. White Southerners aren't even allowed to fly the Confederate battle flag over a historical monument meant to commemorate their ancestors who died under it, without having screeching hordes of imbeciles tell them they are "racists" and should be "ashamed" of themselves for their heritage, culture, and regional identity.

Need I say more?

Hmmm... And where, precisely, did that "privilege" come into play for him?

As has already been noted, there are more "white trash" persons in this country - who tend to be looked down upon and "discriminated against" (and often for good reason) just as much as blacks like to claim they have been - as there are minorities in any kind of poverty.

Happening to have been born white is not a guarantee of success.

The tone-deafness is strong.

The supremely ironic knee-jerk denialism is strong with you.

No, we're for killing violent criminals and protecting innocent babies.

Most of those church fires last year were by natural causes. You do know that. Right?

Now, half of Ferguson burning. That was human caused.



I imagine you give this guy a pass because....he's black.

I'd call that racism, myself.

Because conservative districts don't do things like requiring "intelligent design" to be taught in a science class, as an alternative scientific theory to evolution. Or, say, require abortion providers to lie to their patients, for example by telling them that abortion increases likelihood of suicide (a lie). It's only those meany liberals who are trying to "indoctrinate, not to educate". Right.

Nixes white guilt video, good. Now, why the hell was the video created in the first place?

Also tell me, that this isn't just more of the liberal / progressive indoctrination of the education system again.
