Seems the left, including the white lefties, think that "white shaming" is the only way to combat racism. Do you think so?
 
I suspect “having to hear or see something the OP doesn’t want to hear or see” = shaming. It lets the OP be conveniently aggrieved by anything he wishes.

True, right-wing conservative ideology is defined by, and predicated on, being the victim.

As a "white lefties" member when do you say I have thought and expressed "white shaming" as the "only way to combat racism"?

By the way the Poll options are wholly inadequate to the topic, in my considered opinion.

None there matches what I think.
 
Anyone who thinks I should feel "collective guilt" by virtue of my genetics is a racist, just as much as anyone who thinks blacks should feel inferior because of theirs.

Made up fauxrage about something that is imaginary to play the victim! Oh, how well done....

That certainly seems to be what it's devolved to. They went from "pull yourself up by the bootstraps" to eternal victims, crying about people not being fair to them.

It seems you have built another straw man. unless you can show me some "white shaming".
HA HA HA HA... Did you seriously just asked that question?

Priceless.
So you don't know either.

The poll is meant to support his ridiculous assertion, nothing more.

Probably saying things like only white people are racist and all white people are racist even if they don’t know they are (which are both some bullshit).

I think you greatly misinterpret the issue, and continue digging a huge hole for yourself while doing so.

Thank you for your,

..regurgitation of the best propaganda the money of the wealthiest G.O.P. political donors can buy and pay to distribute to polarize you into voting in their best interests, protecting them from tax increases and an IRS funded at appropriate 2022 levels!

"..On the surface, Republican demands should have made agreement impossible. G.O.P. senators were adamantly opposed to tax increases. They also blocked proposals to give the I.R.S. resources to crack down on widespread tax evasion — a stance that even cynics like yours truly found a bit shocking. What kind of party more or less openly aligns itself with wealthy tax cheats?..."

"In 2019, it was reported how liberal white Americans were being influenced by white guilt, changing patterns of political and social behaviour to be more racially inclusive since the election of Donald Trump. This included the methods by which Democratic nominees were being considered for the 2020 presidential election.[25][23] .."

"In more than twenty years of running diversity-training and cultural-competency workshops for American companies, the academic and educator Robin DiAngelo has noticed that white people are sensationally, histrionically bad at discussing racism. Like waves on sand, their reactions form predictable patterns: they will insist that they “were taught to treat everyone the same,” that they are “color-blind,” that they “don’t care if you are pink, purple, or polka-dotted.” They will point to friends and family members of color, a history of civil-rights activism, or a more “salient” issue, such as class or gender. They will shout and bluster. They will cry. In 2011, DiAngelo coined the term “white fragility” to describe the disbelieving defensiveness that white people exhibit when their ideas about race and racism are challenged—and particularly when they feel implicated in white supremacy. Why, she wondered, did her feedback prompt such resistance, as if the mention of racism were more offensive than the fact or practice of it?..."
