Default Turns out Cum, MilleniumZ06, et al, aren't outliers...aren't fringe

Turns out, almost half of black Americans don't agree that it's OK to be White.

‘It’s OK to be white,’ agree 72%, including 53% of blacks

Story by Paul Bedard • 9h ago

In the latest Rasmussen Reports survey shared with Secrets, 72% agreed with the statement, “It’s OK to be white.” Even a majority of blacks, 53%, agreed.

Another way of saying that is, 47& of black people could NOT agree that it's OK to be white....almost half of them.


What’s more, when asked if voters agreed or disagreed with the statement, “Black people can be racist, too,” 79% agreed, including 66% of blacks.

The survey appears to be a blow to the narrative in the liberal media and Hollywood that whites are the only racists and that being white is something people should be ashamed of.

The statement, “It’s OK to be white” was first pushed on right wing websites then picked up in speeches by influencers. It has since been decried as a hate chant by the Anti-Defamation League and any reference to it attacked.

In the last week, for example, Portland, Maine has seen protests against a former city council candidate's OK sign.

The Rasmussen survey showed that most think nobody has the market on racism and that there is a lot more open-mindedness on the issue than the media would make you believe.

Ha, Scott Adams nailed it. I see him on Twitter once in a while, and he always makes sense.

Any rational, free-thinking person would come to the same conclusion.

Sadly, most black kids are taught to dislike white people.

Just wait until the tables are turned on them. There is a breaking point and I think it will be happening sooner than later.

I think the main stream media & institutions of higher education, which program & develop the social justice warrior mindset,
are the main driving culprits.
They have been working the long game towards eroding our bedrock historic values & the free market system that have provided
the endless opportunities for those who strive towards success.

They have consistently distorted the high achievements of those who have diligently applied themselves over time & with great sacrifice
& they have re-labeled it as the unfair advantage of the white man & a corrupt capitalist system .

Because of those deceptions, there is an even larger percentage of the slothful & non productive, that dont recognize their own lack of effort
as cause for their poverty, they have an easy to identify enemy that had an unfair advantage thru birthright & skin color that hogged up all the
finer things of life, while they dont get shit.

As I watched this, I thought of nobody I knew that would answer the same question about being black. Can you imagine what the outrage would be if even 20% of white people thought it was not OK to be black, let alone 47%? I'm not ready to abandon an entire population on this like Scott Adams seems to be, but it's certainly troubling data.

Just remember, a lot of Black kids know how to shoot-and most of white kids are soy boys and female SJW’s. Don’t think it will turn out like you think.

It's not the white kids they need to worry about. It's those of us adults who have had enough of the bullshit and know how to PROPERLY shoot that who are going to be raising hell.

I’ll hang my hat on those that live in a war zone and fight every day. And it sure ain’t most of us.

Fortunately for 47%, they don't have to worry about being white.

The greatest offenders of racism are the racists who blame racism for all things, while ignoring their character and their actions.

Without racism they would have to deal with the reality they are the only ones to blame for their lot in life.

The worst people are the pols and community activists who have profited enormously from baiting race, and have purposely done ZERO, as their fortunes are increased by hyping the mistruths.
