I'm getting so freaking tired.of hearing about white supremacy. What about black supremacy, muslim supremacy, feminist supremacy, political supremacy, Hollywood supremacy.....it goes on and on and on......kind of racist to single out one group don't you think?
You should talk to Loki who swears that being derogatory about Mexicans isn't racist, because "Mexican" is a nationality, not a race. So in your list, black supremacy is the only thing that could qualify as racist and I gotta say that even though some blacks are racist, it has never reached the level where supremacy is even considered.
Supremacy, in case you don't know, is about domination.
The Muslims that immigrate here are simply trying to co-exist with us, they are NOT trying to "take us over" and they certainly aren't advocating the prohibition of Christianity. If anything, they are are just trying to defend their right to practice their own religion the way our doctrine says they can. The feminists aren't pushing for supremacy either, they are volleying for equality, not domination. You NEVER hear political feminists saying men should have less than women.
The reason why you hear so much about white supremacy is because it's the ONLY clear example in America today of one ethnic group actually trying to exclude other ethnic groups from the civil rights that our Constitution provides. All those other groups are asking for equality. White supremacy is asking for domination. That, my friend, is the very clear and significant difference that singles out white supremacy.
And it's the recent rise in white supremacist activity AND the apparent acceptance of that activity by the sitting president, that explains why President Bush felt compelled to say something about it after nine years of silence.
I also find this pointing at others for excuses to be very childish... "but Ma, Tim does it!" Didn't your mother ever tell ask you "If your friends jumped off a cliff would you do it to?" And as a white Anglo-Saxon (can't get any whiter) I have to say, the constant mention of white supremacy doesn't bother me at all. I wonder if the nerve that you are feeling isn't guilt. You say you're not racist, but you take offense when people mention white supremacy. So... mixed signals.
Free yourself kk... You can disassociate yourself from white supremacy and still be white. :)
