We Know the Color of the Enemies Skin

After all, Obama's generation of elites were the ones that inserted the hyphen so blacks could be "African-American"

I stopped reading after this line. I've seen the term written this way all my life, or at least stretching back to the Clinton administration.
 
^^^ This.

Add to that - I don't exactly "follow" Hollywood, but I never heard of this woman. Is she a big deal, or just a low-rent nobody saying outrageous stuff, possibly for attention?

I looked at her Wikipedia page. She doesn't seem like that big of a deal. I've never seen anything that she's been in.
 
Natural unattractiveness is more a matter of character,

I agree there is attraction based on someone's personality or character, however there is also the physical attraction. For example, some guys are really attracted to redheads, and this has nothing to do with character. Dark skin is just one of the many physical attributes of a human, and it is conceivable that if there are people who are attracted to dark skin, then surely there must also be people who are repulsed by it.

i.e. the extent to which that is warped by bigotry of the type you show here.
Not finding dark skin attractive is not bigotry.


So what we are descended from dark-skinned africans? The only thing that matters is that I am not dark-skinned, which I thank god for everyday.

That probably works both ways in that dark-skinned people wouldn't want you to be part of theirs.

This is fine by me.
 

it's funny how, as a white man, i haven't experienced very much racism. maybe i'm not watching the right news network.
 
no day is truly complete without a white nationalist "i'm such a mistreated victim" thread. thanks.

You aren't even a tad bit curious about why the same media that eviscerated Roseanne Barr over racist Tweets hasn't said a peep about Ellen Barkin's racist Tweets?
 
I think that Ellen Barkin no longer looks like Ellen Barkin, who, btw, wasn't a half bad character actress in her day.
Politics must be her new profession. So sad to see these Hollywood has beens needing this much attention.

She also made a cryptic comment recently, which could be seen as wishing death on the president. I've read several comments here where people say something along the lines of, 'she's no big deal, why bother talking about this?' Her Twitter account has 166k followers, which means she has plenty of people listening to what she says.
 

So you also objected to the dozen or so threads dedicated to Roseanne Barr's Tweets from several months ago? Or the media driven hysteria that cost her her job?
 

It's not OK to make comments like Barkin made, wishing death on the president even if joking about it, ... people who do that need to be called out.
 
Where's the link? Aren't we supposed to post a link to what we're creating a thread for? How can anyone comment on this without knowing what it was she said?

Her Tweets were captured by screenshot, so they'd be preserved if she attempted to delete them, which she did.
 

Is black nationalism ok with you?
How about brown nationalism?
Or Arab nationalism? Would that be ok with you?
 

Let's start with Harvey Weinstein- large donor to the DNC, known as a serial abuser of women throughout Hollywood, and had the protection of the NYC District Attorney, plus the president of NBC news, who covered up allegations of rape. He's the poster child of the Hollywood elite, of which Barkin is a member. This is evidenced by the fact she labeled an entire race of people as 'the enemy', and even appeared to wish death on the President, all while having the protection of the media, which hasn't said a word about any of this. Her Twitter account has 166k followers, which means her Tweets are viewed a helluva lot more than this website is.
 
Brainwashing.

It could be that, but it could also be an attempt to revive her fading career.
At any rate, any white person, I don't care who you are, should be called out for calling white people the enemy.
That's some race baiting, virtue signaling right there.

Most Americans can name more celebrities than members of Congress, or American presidents. This website is geared towards the minority in this country- those who actually follow politics closely.

i'm not a big fan of nationalism. it's usually a tool used by idiots.

I'm not saying that you did or didn't. I'm asking you whether you're curious about why the media turned Barr's tweet into a national story while ignoring Barkin's.

nah, i'm not curious about that. i only have so much weekend, and i've allotted very little time for white victimhood.
 
The supreme racists are the democrats themselves. What was it Vogue magazine just said about "white women?"

You immediately dismiss his grievance as "white victimhood" without giving it any consideration.
