About that "replacement theory" crap

[Cyrano]

Bigots can find countless reasons to hate. "They want to replace us," is a fairly new one. It used to be "they're dumb," 'they're inferior," "they want our women," and an entire dictionary of Klu Klux Klan poisonous shit. Now it's "replacement theory." And it's not aimed just at Black people. It's aimed at "The Other," which of course includes everyone who votes Democratic.

I won't even bother to argue with that stupid fucking concept. All I'll say is that the people who mouth it are either racists, or dumb enough to repeat racist slogans that they don't even understand.

But what we have to understand that there are haters in our country who have always existed, always will exist, and are now living in an era in which they feel it's safe to crawl out from under their rocks. (And carry an AR-15.)

It's up to us to make them crawl back under their rocks. We can do it with our votes, shunning their shit, and standing united against the poison they are trying to spread. And we can also do it by turning away from any and all who are trying to tear us apart. Given today's gun insanity, that may not always be easy. But freedom has always come with a big price tag.

1. I've been posting about "motivations" ...

But very short:
Every Accusation is a Confession

Sums it up nicely

On this particular point, why the emphasis on "White European Christian (males) ???

Accusation: "Others" are gaming the system to advantage over White/Christian/European "stock"
Confession: White European Christians have historically held back, vilified, demonized, enslaved, and murdered others for the "sin" of being different and living without the advantage of "guns, germs and steel". I fear karmic or divine payback. But what my ancestors did doesn't count.

In a word, racism.
Always was.
They just find different words for it.
Think tanks find $20 words for it, but it's the same shit, and throughout history.
"When will they ever learn"
It's how they are exploited.

2. What makes 'em really sound stupid is when they claim it's some grand conspiracy

By 'the Jews' or 'The UN' or 'Deep State' or 'Democrats'.

That's bullshit, it's no such thing.

The statistics of the situation however are pretty clear.

The baseline fact that whites are smaller % of the population now vs even 40 years ago is obviously true.

And they're afraid this is weakening white's power, they instinctively believe this will end badly for them.

That's the most baseline part of the equation here for the large majority of them, the racism grows out of that for some of them, and I think a smaller % are just outright racist to begin with.

MHO.
