Perhaps If They Would Consent To A Full Skin Transplant...

University to host ‘It’s OK to be (Against) White(ness)’ event
full title of “It’s OK to be (Against) White(ness): Racial injustice in a time of racist entrenchment,” at Trent University in OntarioJustification:
...the gathering is about “diversity, inclusion and conversations about how we can all work together to help achieve racial justice.”Yes indeed, that's how to get to "racial justice": by ginning up racist hatred against "whiteness" as "racist entrenchment".
In fact, such "gatherings" are admissions that no matter how much Affirmative Action and racial boosting these sectors of minorities receive, they are not happy until they can gather to rant their own racist hatred (Against) white(ness), as the scape-goat for their own non-achievements.
They do not hate racism; they revel in it. It is their tool for avoiding personal responsibility and passing blame.

Simplifying the Obama Racial Quota For Criminal Non-White Juveniles
Coulter:
Here's a suggestion: why not just never, ever interfere with any minority juvenile criminal? That would prove that minorities are perfect (no criminal records) and that whites have criminal kids. That's no more absurd than what was actually done.
The bleating of the Left regarding "blood on the hands of the NRA and gun owners", is a shrieking Red Herring attempting to divert the blame from its actual source: The LEFT. The Left set this up, infested the Broward County Sheriffs Department, purposefully ignored Cruz, allowed the massacre to proceed even while it was happening.
The Left doesn't care about who gets killed, say in gun-walking to Mexican cartel butchers, or killing of US Law Enforcement agents by those guns, or who/why was Seth Rich assassinated, or why no help was allowed to go to Benghazi, terror killings by Muslims, etc. The Left cares deeply about disarming everyone who disagrees with their objective of forced world-unity under the Leftist Utopia.
While not pursuing minority criminal juveniles, the Left balloons the definition of violence for whites, including aggressions that only they can see, privilege that their Affirmative Action can't possibly overcome, skin tones that cause "discomfort", intellectual concepts which cannot be allowed, Empirical inquiries which cannot be allowed and if actually completed, certainly not communicated, because all of these and more are white violence against the Victimhood Classes. (One also may not look at, or look away from a minority person who is approaching, have any semblance of cultural appropriation including forbidden clothing and hair styling, nor post Christian verse on bulletin boards, nor attend certain meetings, nor try to speak to a minority individual without permission.)
One might conclude that the combination of the war on whites with the invasion of non-whites might have a component of engineered racial mongrelization of the populations of Europe and North America. It is now common to attack "Western Civilization" as some sort of white violence upon the rest of the world. And a single, malleable race seems to be necessary for the final Utopia, given the failure of multicultural non-assimilation.
So combining hatred of whites, engineered racial mongrelization, and proposed destruction of Western Civilization, we come to a realization of a war for survival of whites (and Western Civilization). A literal war. The Left will not compromise and thus steeps in a "take no prisoners" mindset. It is now obvious that their hate for whites knows no bounds.
Join the culture war. When that fails, you have your AR and ammo, right? Right? BTW... get enough ARs now, before they are banned. And ammo, of course. And think about having some AKs, because those are the third world choice for warfare and there are lots of them.
Either: Liberals truly believe that all races commit crimes at exactly the same level, frequency and intensity;Broward County was the poster-child for putting racial caps on capture and prosecution of criminal minority children. For which they received both government CASH and nation-wide accolades for having reduced their arrest data for minorities.
OR they are willing to have people die for their political agenda.

The Whiteness Group
Non-white will teach what "whiteness" is all about.
‘Whiteness Group’ at Liberal Arts College Bars Whites from Asking Blacks QuestionsI'm pretty sure that this is cultural and racial appropriation.
“Racism is a white people problem,” said the group’s student founder, Juniper Cruz—a self-described “Queer Afro-Latinx Muslim”—at the first meeting, which drew about 50 students.
The Whiteness Group, run through the school’s multicultural center, “works to educate students on whiteness, what it means to be white, and ways to deconstruct whiteness to work towards anti-racist actions,” Cruz said in an interview with The Thrill.

Ryerson University and Oppression of Whites
White students barred from meeting at Ryerson University because they were not 'racialized'
First-year journalism students Julia Knope and Trevor Hewitt were attempting to attend a meeting hosted by the Racialised Students’ Collective
Ryerson University removing ‘offensive’ White Students Union signs on campus
TORONTO — Ryerson University is reacting quickly to a group calling itself the “White Students Union,” with officials removing signs across campus and spreading the message that they are in no way connected to the university.
The group, which also calls itself the Students for Western Civilization, said on its website that it is based out of Toronto and is composed primarily of students and alumni of Toronto universities.
It also lists its mission statement as follows:
To genuinely explore ethnic and cultural politics in a forum which does not exclude rightist or conservative perspectives.
To organize for and advance the interests of Western peoples.
To promote and celebrate Western Civilisation.
Ryerson University To Host ‘White Privilege Conference’ Following Cancellation Of Free Speech Event
Canada’s Ryerson University, which canceled a panel on free speech by psychology professor Jordan Peterson following complaints from social justice activists, is slated to host “The White Privilege Conference.”
The university announced this week that it plans to host the conference on May 9 to 12, inviting academics to participate in discussions revolving around “white privilege and oppression in Canada (and beyond),” according to the event page.
Public university cancels ‘White Lives Matter’ rally, violating First Amendment
Claims its ‘support of the First Amendment cannot be questioned’
A regent of the Texas A&M University System is on the record saying it can’t block a “White Lives Matter” rally scheduled for Sept. 11 on the flagship campus in College Station.
As a public institution, TAMU would violate the First Amendment if it denied a public facility to a group “due to political ideology,” he said.
TAMU did it anyway.

Woke Urban Mathematics: Meritocracy is Racist and Other Whines
Getting published requires attacking "Whiteness", including all traits that offend minorities, such as competently doing the work which merits the acknowledgement of having mastered a skill.
Apparently INcompetence in mathematics is the new standard, as that "attunes to the experiences of minority students". Demanding the installation of INcompetence, as opposed to merit, serves as a death knell to the student body which these SJWs teach. Because minorities "are incompetent" within a white/western context, their INcompetence changes the objective to sustaining the INcompetence, and disavowing merit/competence.
I suspect that the goal of installing INcompetence has already been achieved in the generation of these "educators" of mathematics. No competent mathematician would take the anti-merit position.
Here's the Journal:
A math education professor at Brooklyn College contends in a recent academic article that “meritocracy” in math classes is a “tool of whiteness.”There is no possible way for a non-minority teacher to qualify for being woke enough to satisfy these requirements. This paper is racist to the core, pretending that minorities can't be expected to achieve competence, so competence is a white racist requirement.
Laurie Rubel implicates both meritocracy and “color-blindness” as ideological precepts that hold back racial minorities from succeeding in math classes in an article for the peer-reviewed Journal of Urban Mathematics Education.
"Teachers who claim color-blindness...are, in effect, refusing to acknowledge the impact of enduring racial stratification on students and their families." Tweet This
[RELATED: Prof: ‘Meritocracy’ is a ‘whiteness ideology’]
Rubel, who taught high school math for nine years before becoming a professor, argues that while meritocracy is commonly linked to hard work and talent, it also “functions as a tool of whiteness” because it “ignores systemic barriers and institutional structures that prevent opportunity and success.”
Color-blindness, too, can be an issue for math teachers, according to Rubel, who asserts that “Teachers who claim color-blindness—that is, they claim to not notice the race of their students—are, in effect, refusing to acknowledge the impact of enduring racial stratification on students and their families.
“By claiming not to notice, the teacher is saying that she is dismissing one of the most salient features of the child’s identity and that she does not account for it in her curricular planning and instruction,” Rubel adds, citing education theorist Gloria Ladson-Billings.
[RELATED: Profs say classroom ‘civility’ promotes ‘white racial power’]
Even math teachers who acknowledge race, such as those who indicate that they “can’t relate” in certain ways to students who are of a different race, are called out in Rubel’s paper.
If math teachers notice racial differences between themselves and their students, Rubel elaborates, “those differences are typically cast in terms of deficit constructions about students, their places, and their families.”
To mediate this, Rubel recommends that math teachers incorporate more social justice issues into math lessons, but warns that even “teaching for social justice” can be a “tool of whiteness” if teachers are not sufficiently attuned to the experiences of minority students.
This is because even social justice-minded professors may inadvertently hold the “belief that effort is always rewarded, [which corresponds] to various tools of whiteness, like the myths of meritocracy and colorblindness,” Rubel writes.
Apparently INcompetence in mathematics is the new standard, as that "attunes to the experiences of minority students". Demanding the installation of INcompetence, as opposed to merit, serves as a death knell to the student body which these SJWs teach.

Study: Whites Must Not Be Civil To Non-Whites (really!)
White Civility is Racist, Promoting White Supremacy and Whiteness
Evil, Evil, Evil)
The authors (both white) have defined 3 categories of "civility" describing whiteness-informed civility (WIC):
It is interesting that in all Leftist attacks on Whites and Whiteness, the criticisms leave no alternative for the white person to use. For example, if courtesy is not allowed, and ignoring race is not allowed, then the resulting “race-talk” when encountering a non-white must be non-courteous, and race-oriented.
Think about that the next time you encounter a POC (person of color). You must be rude and address that person’s race and zis/zer place in the hierarchy of man, based on skin tone (the only marker of race for the Left). Now that would certainly be an event to observe from a safe distance.
Now this: …"Civility within higher education is a racialized, rather than universal, norm."
As a white potentially encountering a non-white, I imagine that this is quite valid; at least within current cultural social connections race is hard to ignore. And perhaps civility is always “racialized” in that context. It certainly will be under the direction of these authors.
But whose fault is the perpetual class war between races? Class war is not a white value; class war is a Leftist value, and has been since the days of Democrat-dominated Slavery. And this entire “study” is following the skeletal Leftist narrative which demands that there be conflict engendered by whites against non-whites, and never peaceful community with non-whites. This study, by virtue of prejudicing the inputs, intends to show that there is no way around it; racism is a first principle of Whiteness, a Leftist condemnation of the souls of whites everywhere.
The rational error here is obvious: The original premise goes against the larger observation, which is that it is not – NOT – necessary to have “race-talk” with every “not my race” person, every time one meets one. In fact, this would be a disaster of the first order, especially given the conditions which the authors place on such race-talk contacts.
Further, the three “types of civility” are fully bogus. Types (a) and (b) are pegged as actual, genuine civility between the white and the non-white, which is condemned out-of-hand as promoting the white as a “good” white, which immediately connects imaginarily to White Supremacy.
So being a civil, “good” person is damned as a racist act of suppression/oppression by the white, against the beleaguered non-white.
As is all too common with Leftist projections, the unreasonable presuppositions are in place in order for the Left to place class condemnation on the selected Oppressor Class. In this instance, the whites have no recourse. Any and everything they do within the boundaries of this set of presuppositions is declared officially racist. Further, the consequential, if unmentioned, choice – rude race-talk – with all People of Color, in every encounter, is also racist.
Finally, it is apparent that rude race-talk is, in fact, what many campus radicals want: except they want to be the rude party, screaming "shut up and listen" while they spit expletives and hate in the faces of their victims. When one does listen, what one hears is eliminationist Marxist rhetoric in full hate mode, which cannot be hate speech because only whites can do that.
If the POC actually obtain their desire to eliminate or at least completely nullify the White race and Whiteness in general, what will remain is visible in the blue cities - Detroit, Chicago, Baltimore - where Leftism has ruled for decades. And of course in the No Go Zones of France, Germany, Sweden, Britain. Under Leftism, no options are pretty.

Civility and White Institutional Presence: An Exploration of White Students' Understanding of Race-Talk at a Traditionally White Institution
ABSTRACT
In this study, the authors draw upon critical whiteness studies to explore how White students' understanding of race-talk within higher education (re)produces whiteness. Through an analysis of interview data, they generated 3 categories describing whiteness-informed civility (WIC): (a) WIC functions to create a good White identity, (b) WIC functions to erase racial identity, and (c) WIC functions to assert control of space. These thematic concepts show how WIC is characterized by logics of race-evasion, avoidance of race-talk, and exclusion of people of color. The authors conclude by offering ways for instructors to interrogate WIC through classroom practices informed by critical communication pedagogy.
…"Civility within higher education is a racialized, rather than universal, norm."
The authors (both white) have defined 3 categories of "civility" describing whiteness-informed civility (WIC):
(a) WIC functions to create a good White identity: I.e., treat with courtesy. This is bad because it promotes “Good Whiteness” and thus White Supremacy.Civility is therefore a racist tactic used by whites to suppress/oppress non-whites. Apparently what is desired by these two white authors is blunt race-talk, which is not civil.
(b) WIC functions to erase racial identity: “I don’t see race; I see a person”. This is race-talk evasion, and that is Whiteness and White Supremacy.
(c) WIC functions to assert control of space. Segregation.
It is interesting that in all Leftist attacks on Whites and Whiteness, the criticisms leave no alternative for the white person to use. For example, if courtesy is not allowed, and ignoring race is not allowed, then the resulting “race-talk” when encountering a non-white must be non-courteous, and race-oriented.
Think about that the next time you encounter a POC (person of color). You must be rude and address that person’s race and zis/zer place in the hierarchy of man, based on skin tone (the only marker of race for the Left). Now that would certainly be an event to observe from a safe distance.

Apple: Diversity is About Race and Sex and Nothing Else.
This black woman -OMG- DEFENDED -OMG- WHITE -OMG- MEN OMGOMGOMGOMG!!!!
Apple fires Diversity Chief for suggesting that intellectual and life diversity is important too.
Apple’s diversity chief is stepping down after only six months on the job — after causing an outcry by saying that being a minority or a woman are not the only criteria for diversity, according to reports.
Denise Young Smith, who was named vice president of diversity and inclusion in May, made controversial comments last month during a One Young World Summit in Bogotá, Colombia.
“There can be 12 white, blue-eyed, blond men in a room and they’re going to be diverse too because they’re going to bring a different life experience and life perspective to the conversation,” the inaugural diversity chief said.
“Diversity is the human experience,” she said, according to Quartz. “I get a little bit frustrated when diversity or the term diversity is tagged to the people of color, or the women, or the LGBT.”
Her comments appeared to defend Apple’s overwhelmingly white and male leadership at a time when the company’s makeup is markedly uneven.
The 20-year Apple veteran, who previously served as the company’s head of worldwide human resources, later apologized for her remarks, telling the staff that they “were not representative of how I think about diversity or how Apple sees it.”
“For that, I’m sorry,” she said in an email. “More importantly, I want to assure you Apple’s view and our dedication to diversity has not changed.”
Smith will leave the company at the end of the year, TechCrunch reported. Taking over as VP of inclusion and diversity will be Christie Smith, who spent 17 years as a principal at Deloitte.
“We deeply believe that diversity drives innovation,” an Apple spokesman told TechCrunch in a statement. “We’re thrilled to welcome an accomplished leader like Christie Smith to help us continue the progress we’ve made toward a more diverse workplace.”

More Anti-White Racism
Students at liberal Reed College stage occupation over 'whitewashed' curriculumOne sign says that they know all they want to about whiteness.
Public school in Minnesota requires English course aimed at eradicating white privilege
“Understanding Critical race theory was a significant reason behind our school taking another step on our equity journey — incorporating a study of Critical race theory into our sophomore English classes,” Roehl wrote. “English teachers felt that our district’s mission to give all learners the ‘ethical values necessary to thrive in a rapidly changing, culturally diverse, global society’ could not be fully met without explicit discussions of race, racism, and Whiteness.”
Roehl added that they “encouraged students to examine the role that power has in the stories studied to get a sense of the ways Whiteness silences some voices and amplifies others.”
Roehl complained about confrontation at parent-teacher conferences, but she said she was able to stay on track because of her PEG (Pacific Educational Group) training.
She revealed that Edina schools started working with PEG in 2009 through diversity workshops and trainings that emphasize “courageous conversations that isolate race, and specifically, a study of critical race theory helped me reach the place I am today.”
It should be noted that a black teacher in Minnesota, Aaron Benner, slammed PEG’s race-based, regressive policies making it dangerous for teachers, and said the district discriminated him for it.
“PEG pushes the idea that black students are victims of white school policies that make it difficult or impossible for them to learn,” Benner told Fox News.

The "Necessary Path, Unlearning Patriarchal Western 'Civilization' Ways'"
Remember Rosa Parks, national icon for resisting racism by refusing to move to the back of the bus?
Today racism has persisted, but is inverted. The whites must move to the back:
Pimienta has rejected civil behavior, in favor of the "necessary path, unlearning patriarchal western 'civilization' ways", specifically by "disrespecting" white women and whites in general. The inverse of MLK is pure animalism, not "evolution" but devolution. In terms of the Left, this is consistent with their entire history. The pursuit of power requires someone to have power over.
So, in terms of today's civil society, the effect is something like this:
Today racism has persisted, but is inverted. The whites must move to the back:
Singer Asks White Audience Members To Go To The Back Of the Audience. Then This Happens.Since when is resisting being forced to "go to the back" a racist act? Since when is forcing this on a race-not-your-own NOT racist? Well, if it is done by the Left, then it's "progressive" by definition, and to be hailed as "fighting the whiteness".
According to the National Post, Allie O’Manique, who shares management with Pimienta, said the female photographer would not budge from her position near the stage, prompting anger from some crowd members. O’Manique, whose version of events was confirmed by Festival spokesman Trevor Murphy, said that Pimienta “just kept saying, ‘Move to the back’ … finally after saying it about 10 times — and the woman refused to move — [Pimienta] said, ‘You’re cutting into my set time, and you’re disrespecting these women, and I don’t have time for this.”
Event organizers revealed the volunteer was kicked out of the concert and is no longer affiliated with the festival. The board of directors for Halifax Pop Explosion issued this statement:
We will not accept this behavior and neither should you. … Be responsible for your friends — talk to them and support them as they move towards unpacking their racism. People of Color deserve safe spaces and it is your responsibility to help. It is also ours. To Lido Pimienta: we are sorry that one of our volunteers interrupted your art, your show, and your audience by being aggressive and racist. We have so much respect for the art and music you create and the space you make for women, people of color, transgender, and nonbinary people. The way you interact with the world acts and provides a thoughtful example. You are a role model to us and many people in our community. We see it. We feel it. We hope you will work with us again.
Pimienta told Billboard:
From the audience’s point of view, [men] for the most part will not think twice before they put themselves right in front of you. I am a short woman, so I always have to show up very early to be able to enjoy the music, to see the acts. ... From the stage point of view, I noticed how most men who plant themselves at the front, they tend to overpower ME. Their presence usually at my own show is a threatening one and I have had men grab me, grab my hands, grab my waist, scream "TE AMO MAMACITA." My show is all about high energy and high feminine power, so I can see for some men, my energy reads "sexual" and they feel like my show is FOR THEM, when in fact, my show if anything, is for WOMXN.
When I started asking womxn to the front, I noticed how white women were usually at the front and brown girls would be behind the white girls, a bit more shy, a bit more restrained. Even at HPX, I had to call out a few black girls who were "too shocked" and felt I was "putting them on the spot" by saying, "Girl come to the front! This is for you!" As an immigrant, as an Afro-Indigenous person, as an intersectional feminist, as a mother and all of the other signifiers that qualify me as "other," I understand what it is like to not see yourself in the media, to not see yourself in institutions and to not see yourself represented or reflected at a music show, because the "artist of colour" (and I put that in quotation marks because even that term is extremely problematic), we don’t get to see each other at that level.
She added:
I am deeply touched by HPX’s apology -- they know they have a long way to go to balance things out, but at least they called themselves out and I hope this doesn't end here but moves past the noise. I have a few ideas; I will probably share when I have time with them. We are all in a complicated and painful time, but we’re on a necessary path, unlearning patriarchal western "civilization" ways. If we don't speak up, we will never evolve.
Pimienta has rejected civil behavior, in favor of the "necessary path, unlearning patriarchal western 'civilization' ways", specifically by "disrespecting" white women and whites in general. The inverse of MLK is pure animalism, not "evolution" but devolution. In terms of the Left, this is consistent with their entire history. The pursuit of power requires someone to have power over.
So, in terms of today's civil society, the effect is something like this:
NY Police: Man Threw 'Burning' Liquid In 13-Year-Old Girl's Face: 'This Is For You, White B****'Anti-whiteness is mostly rhetoric at the moment. But as the rhetoric increases, so will street violence increase as segments of the black community feel enabled to dispense with both western civilizational culture and whites.

Can't Allow This
In a society where "Whiteness is Problematic", the concept that whiteness is not problematic becomes more than problematic: it causes rioting. The color of your skin is the most important - actually the ONLY important - quality you have in the Leftist tribalist political theory. Wrong skin color (as in white), and you are condemned and declared, oh say "fascist" and "punchable". This form of racism will be the cause of the ensuing insurrections. The skin-tone police (today's actual racists) will lose. But it requires an actual war, because that's what they want.

Ability to Solve Algebra and Geometry Perpetuates White Privilege: Professor
White privilege bolstered by teaching math, university professor saysIt's so hard to characterize such crap-thought as the stupidest ever, when tomorrow will produce even more ludicrous stupidity which will take the title away from today's ludicrous stupidity.
Professor Rochelle Gutierrez says the ability to solve algebra and geometry perpetuates white privilege.(University of Illinois)
A math education professor at the University of Illinois says the ability to solve geometry and algebra problems and teaching such subjects perpetuates so-called white privilege.
Rochelle Gutierrez laid out her views on the subject in an article for a newly published anthology for math educators titled, “Building Support for Scholarly Practices in Mathematics Methods.”
“School mathematics curricula emphasizing terms like Pythagorean Theorem and pi perpetuate a perception that mathematics was largely developed by Greeks and other Europeans," she says, according to Campus Reform.
She also says that addressing equity in mathematics education will come when teachers can understand and negotiate the politics outside the classroom.
“On many levels, mathematics itself operates as whiteness. Who gets credit for doing and developing mathematics, who is capable in mathematics, and who is seen as part of the mathematical community is generally viewed as white,” she writes.
Further, she says mathematics operates with unearned privilege in society, “just like whiteness.”
Beware of university "education"; students subjected to crap-thought might not survive it to become rational adults. Obviously Gutierrez didn't.
Further, observing such obviously false and irrational attacks from minorities serves only to make one wonder if rational western thought is indeed superior - and if rational western thought is also identity-designated "white", then it follows that the minority concept of "Whiteness" does, in fact, provide a superior view of actual reality, while the minority alternative (ignorance as a cultural value) cannot possibly provide any useful guidance for the minority.
The position of Gutierrez (no math or math history and therefore positing the superiority of cultural ignorance), is maximally irrational and is likely done in a fit of pique and certainly not in any intellectual context. That being the case, the reflection on the university is that of a converged SJW encampment rather than an open platform for intellectual progress.

You White? You Racist. You Got No Choice. Because: I Say So.
The white people who stay silent in the face of white terrorism consider themselves to be “non-racist.” They’re wrong.What "white terrorism" amounts to is just that white people a) exist; b) don't give their money to blacks:
White people have a fundamental misunderstanding of racism, how it operates, how they benefit from it, and how it impacts people of color. Therefore, they consistently miss the mark as “allies” by centering themselves. In this way, white liberalism and white feminism are continually failing us — and to be honest, we’re tired of explaining this shit to them. If Tina Fey and Lady Gaga want to be better white people, they can start by recognizing their own privilege and their complicity in racism, and putting money in the hands of people who are already doing work to combat white supremacy.So even black-only intersectionalism is about the cash, baby. GIMMEDAT! And BTW, you're racist and white supremacist, because: whiteness. Which must be eradicated:
Kim Jong-Un Never Called Me Nigger
White nationalists at home are more dangerous than nuclear weapons abroad.
Charlottesville, Ferguson, Sanford, and Baltimore are recent examples that show us white people are the most immediate threat to American’s safety. This threat is not abstract. It is up close and personal. It is a threat rooted in history and context. It is a threat that is ever-present.
White people have caused more injuries and deaths of Americans than Kim Jong-un ever could. The president and other politicians need to act based on that needful fact. Cable news and major publications should disseminate information based on that needful fact.
Kim Jong-un has never called me nigger, but white people have. And my fears and anxieties are based on that needful fact.

Leftists, On Charlottesville: Untwisting the Rhetoric
A commenter claims that Leftist "news" should be taken into account. So I do that here.
My discussion here is regarding the Left. The Left has been consistently violent for the past year and a half, attacking and harming peaceful people trying to attend political meetings which is their legal and Constitutional right.
To insist that only one side deserves condemnation at Charlotte is a blatant corruption of human rights. One side was there completely legally - not the Antifa. One side does not hide its identity to prevent prosecution for what it intends to do - not Antifa. One side was attacked while under police protection as they attempted to leave - Not Antifa. One side gets the blame - not Antifa.
The Unite the Whites movement has been roundly condemned by all virtue-signalling pols, CEOs, and whoknows, and needs no further condemnation. In fact, what is needed now is a clear picture of what happened, and who did what to whom. So let's see how the Left addresses Charlottesville.
I will translate and discuss the Leftist commentary:
Here are Slate's "observers":
As for Think Progress, the story is this:
While the same minister as above is organizing illegal activities in a church, the Unite the Right protestors showed up outside, apparently across the street. They surrounded the small cadre of Leftists who were human-chained around the statue, and shouting ensued. Why the Leftists were protecting the statue that they want destroyed is not obvious.
So they went out to bust up a legal Unite the Right demonstration, and told themselves that they might die doing it, or at a minimum be arrested for illegal action. In the name of God.
Suddenly the Left is invoking God for an amazing amount of the justifications for their illegal actions (at a Federal Level) in denying human rights.
Here’s some violence:
”A group of white supremacists broke through our line with shields,” Wispelwey said. “Some of them were screaming and spitting slurs [as they] physically shoved clergy aside with their shields.”
They illegally interfered with legal Right to Assembly, got shoved out of the way, and there was badtalk, maybe even evilspeak.
Here’s the excitement part:
Wow! Dramatic! What happened? Did Antifa stop the Unite the Whites from beating you?
Oh. Nothing happened. The clergy left the premises, intact and unscathed, despite illegally blocking access to the park. They went to console the damaged folks over in the other park.
And then,
The scoff-law clergy is preparing to help other scoff-law clergy in areas which expect Unite the Right demonstrations to be illegally attacked by Antifa armed with “community defense tools”.
Antifa’s “community defense tools” have always included fire bombs, ball bats, pipes, pepper spray and/or mace delivered from behind their victim, isolating individuals and beating them into comas, throwing rocks, bottles and debris, and have recently introduced the flame thrower. They have knifed a number of individuals – attempted murder.
BLM has endorsed cop killing and BLM members have killed cops, torched buildings and cars, etc. They are funded by Soros and the Ford Foundation, amongst others. They do not protest the carnage of black-on-black murders in Detroit, Chicago, Baltimore, etc. So not ALL black lives matter to BLM; they are primarily against white laws enforced on black culture, which is NOT white culture. Oh, and cops; they hate cops of all tints.
Whiteness is now more than just a microaggression. Whiteness now must be eradicated, before blacks are able to be “comfortable in their skins”. Under Obama, blacks have discovered that the Left supports Black Supremacy, and blacks get a pass frequently on egregious behavior purely due to their skin color. So now skin color has been leveraged against whites (and presumably against “white Hispanics” as the Left defines them).
The White Lives Matter movement has been created out of necessity to fight the anti-white racism identity/class war of the Left. The Democrat party has clearly identified itself with anti-whiteness. The DNC funded some or most of the original violence against Trump supporters merely attending rallys. The Democrat mayors and police chiefs both colluded with BAMN (By Any Means Necessary) in NOT protecting citizens from Antifa attacks and violence. This goes for the hierarchy of Charlottesville too. In fact, it appears that all large cities will not allow police to prevent Antifa attacks on citizens and/or opposition demonstrators.
The now-sanctioned Leftist outrage against whites (and Trump who marginalized and humiliated Hillary and her Leftist supporters) guarantees open warfare in the future, likely followed by 4th gen guerrilla disruption of national structures… much more destructive than merely destroying historical statues of Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln etc. (Russian revolution level activity can be anticipated).
The USA is still open and vulnerable to guerrilla attack on many levels. The most interesting question will be this: on which side will the Deep State come down? The Leftist guerrillas? Likely. Probably the destruction will be false-flagged to the Class/Identity: White-Oppressor.
Therefore in the Leftist MSM world it is the defense of whiteness and the fight against anti-white racism that gets the blame, hatred and vitriol, and that will continue until death begets more death in this Illegal Leftist-Communist Class-Identity Civil War against America.

I will translate and discuss the Leftist commentary:
Here are Slate's "observers":
1. Brandy Daniels: Tries to prevent lawful entry to legal protesters, gets pushed aside and fears for her lifeIn every case, violence is attributed to the whites, but not observed. (Except when they attempt to define speech as "violence") In cases 1,3,5, it is presumed acceptable to violate the Federal Court Order explicitly allowing the whites access to assemble in that park, as well as acceptable to violate clause 2 and 3 of the First Amendment of the US Constitution. In cases of violence (1,2,3,5), the "violence" observed is by the Left, and initiated by illegal denial of access to assemble under the Federal Court decree and the First Amendment. Actual violence is specifically denied as an issue, because the presumed thoughts of all of the whites is "violence", while the tools of Antifa are "community protection tools".
2. Rabbi Rachel Schmelkin: Antifa are reconnoitering up in their parking lot, and "...at one point the white supremacists came by and antifa chased them off with sticks."
3. Rebekah Menning: Attempted to prevent access by legal protesters to their designated positions. "we were prepared to be beaten to a bloody pulp to show that while the state permitted white nationalists to rally in hate, in the many names of God, we did not. But we didn’t have to because the anarchists and anti-fascists got to them before they could get to us. I’ve never felt more grateful and more ashamed at the same time. The antifa were like angels to me in that moment."
4. Mary Esselman: Felt fear. Not attacked. No violence. She said stuff to them, and they said stuff back. She was scandalized.
5. Rev. Seth Wispelwey: Tried to interfere with the legal demonstrators. "I helped lead a group of clergy who were trained and committed to the same work: to hold space on the frontline of the park where the rally was to be held. And then some of us tried to take the steps to one of the entrances. God is not OK with white supremacy, and God is on the side of all those it tries to dehumanize. We feel a responsibility to visibly, bodily show our solidarity with the oppressed and marginalized.
A phalanx of neo-Nazis shoved right through our human wall with 3-foot-wide wooden shields, screaming and spitting homophobic slurs and obscenities at us. It was then that antifa stepped in to thwart them. They have their tools to achieve their purposes, and they are not ones I will personally use, but let me stress that our purposes were the same: block this violent tide and do not let it take the pedestal..
[...]
as for antifa, anything they brought I would only categorize as community defense tools and nothing more. Pretty much everyone I talk to agrees—including most clergy. My strong stance is that the weapon is and was white supremacy, and the white supremacists intentionally brought weapons to instigate violence.
As for Think Progress, the story is this:
While the same minister as above is organizing illegal activities in a church, the Unite the Right protestors showed up outside, apparently across the street. They surrounded the small cadre of Leftists who were human-chained around the statue, and shouting ensued. Why the Leftists were protecting the statue that they want destroyed is not obvious.
"After the service, the faith-based protesters split into two groups. One subset — up to 80 clergy who had been trained in nonviolent resistance, according to several estimates from participants — would march directly into the heart of the demonstration. The second group — which included McLaren, who had missed this training due to a delayed flight — would attend a rally in a park a block away from the action, whose boundaries would serve as a safe space and emergency medical care center.
“It was made clear to us that if we walk on the street, we could die,” Harper, who joined the second group along with Wispelwey and Smith, said. “And we could definitely be arrested…because there are too many unknown factors here.”
So they went out to bust up a legal Unite the Right demonstration, and told themselves that they might die doing it, or at a minimum be arrested for illegal action. In the name of God.
Suddenly the Left is invoking God for an amazing amount of the justifications for their illegal actions (at a Federal Level) in denying human rights.
”A faction that included professor West, Smith, and Wispelwey formed a line across the entrance of the park and linked arms, blocking white supremacists from entering.They wanted “to be removed”, in order to be saved from the confrontation they were causing.
They took their positions knowing there was little guarantee that there would be help if they needed it.
“I think the hope was there would be some police intervention that would have us removed [in the event of violence],” Smith said. “But in terms of being a presence at the park, at the rally, they were not there. There wasn’t a possibility that the police were going to come to our defense if the white supremacists turned on the clergy.”
Here’s some violence:
”A group of white supremacists broke through our line with shields,” Wispelwey said. “Some of them were screaming and spitting slurs [as they] physically shoved clergy aside with their shields.”
They illegally interfered with legal Right to Assembly, got shoved out of the way, and there was badtalk, maybe even evilspeak.
Here’s the excitement part:
”Clergy rearranged their positions to try and hold off another wave of white nationalists. But when the “the alt-right instigated their violence” down the street against counter-protesters, a group of Antifa intervened. The clergy took moment as a chance to disperse.
“That’s when Antifa saved our lives,” he said.”
Wow! Dramatic! What happened? Did Antifa stop the Unite the Whites from beating you?
Oh. Nothing happened. The clergy left the premises, intact and unscathed, despite illegally blocking access to the park. They went to console the damaged folks over in the other park.
And then,
”Then tragedy struck. As McLaren, Wispelwey, and others convened at the top of a hill, a car down the street—which authorities say was driven by white supremacist James Alex Fields Jr.—barreled through a group of counter-protesters, wounding 19 and killing Heather D. Heyer.And that's it. It's over. But never over-over.
Within minutes, the faith leaders were called on to respond.”
The scoff-law clergy is preparing to help other scoff-law clergy in areas which expect Unite the Right demonstrations to be illegally attacked by Antifa armed with “community defense tools”.
Antifa’s “community defense tools” have always included fire bombs, ball bats, pipes, pepper spray and/or mace delivered from behind their victim, isolating individuals and beating them into comas, throwing rocks, bottles and debris, and have recently introduced the flame thrower. They have knifed a number of individuals – attempted murder.

How The Chinese Communists Destroyed Chinese Culture
The baby communists in Antifa are nothing new.
This is not just a Chinese phenomenon, as the destruction by the Taliban and ISIS demonstrates. For tyrants, only the new culture icons are allowed to exist, so every aspect of historical culture must be eradicated by whatever force is necessary. Pol Pot took it further, demanding that all people become an agrarian stage society, killed the excess and those who were part of the Old.
That's the essence of what is going on with the American Left. It has established public shaming, de-platforming, and doxxing for personal attacks, the remedy for which is loud, sincere-looking virtue signalling while belly-crawling before the inquisitors.
The Left has established its moral code (we are the moral elite, defined by us as intrinsically moral: you are evil and must be eradicated). The Progressive has entered the stage for the violence and destruction of all previous icons of the "old" culture.
They haven't discovered evil white-man books in the library, yet (it's doubtful that they read). But they are now purging the communication lines which revolve around the internet.
Calls for the elimination of "whiteness" are becoming mainstream, and are in academia as well as Leftist, Feminist, Racist Arenas.
So why would whites not rebel? They have been targeted. Their enemies are emboldened and well funded as well as armed and unidentifiable. The destruction of whiteness has begun, and it is a moral imperative for the Left - even whites on the Left.
Think about what should be done.
Then write it here, if you have an idea.
New news is old news happening to new people.The Chinese culture was being scoured even before the Cultural Revolution, destroying books, art, Chinese architecture, temples and anything representing the "old culture". People were eradicated for being part of the Old. Chiang Kai-Shek saved much of the museum pieces and heritage items from the Forbidden City Palace and escaped to Taiwan, where the Chinese heritage is still preserved despite Mao's attack.
