Question for White Americans about the future of US

Anonymous
The truth is that white America would be completely happy if all you cultural minority's just left and never returned.

We won't miss your rap, chicken and waffles, tortillas, salsa music, or Cuban cigars one bit.

My question: Does becoming a minority subject to the rule of a majority concern you? Do you fear you will be treated like minorities of color are treated today, and have been historically? What do you feel the future will look like for white Americans?

Odds are I won't be alive in 30 to 40 years. That said having lived in largely Hispanic areas most of my life I don't see excluding Hispanics as if they aren't white. I have known lots of 2nd, 3rd and 4th generation Hispanics. They hold onto their cultural heritage, as many do, but as they move up the economic ladder they hold the same aspirations and expectations that others, nee whites, do.

And unless things change dramatically, those in the lower socio economic group don't vote in significant percentages. And the more successful economically the more like to be conservative.

OP here.

Lots of people on commenting that they already live in majority minority areas/cities, so they know what its like. Such a strange line of thinking. With the exception of DC, which is controlled by a white run Congress, true power resides at the state level. Can anyone list any US where minorities hold a majority of the political power? Find me that place and then we can start making comparisons.

Hawaii might be a good place to consider. No ethnic majority there,

Eh, you wish.

Also, what's with all the ashkenazi jews on this site lately? Firstly trying to claim you look like WASPs (which, just... lol.) and now trying to convince us you run the world? Seems like someone is running the ashkenazi jews PR team


Wants to distinguish herself from the darker skinned Shephardic Jews or -- G-d forbid -- Black Ethiopian Jews

Good. White Americans have the highest rates for attending college and for marriage. Minorities won't catch up until they marry and stay married.


This.

Marriage is a key factor in amassing wealth. Stable two-parent families play a critical role in financial success. If you look at data and research related to poverty, one of the biggest data points that jumps out is single parenting/having children out of wedlock (and teen pregnancy which prompts girls to drop out of school). Also check out the data on criminal records (which frustrate future earning potential).

Whites still take the trophy when it comes to advanced education and dual income families.

It would take a major cultural shift in terms of socially acceptable behavior to change the current socioeconomic patterns of racially diverse communities...particularly on the coasts.




This is old data. The current thinking is that it's poverty that begets teen pregnancy, not the other way around. Whites "take the trophy" on education/wealth because we've set up the system to be advantageous to us. We can't just our behavior and successes like this until we truly level the playing field.


White people's 300+ year head start on build wealth on free black labor will definitely give them lasting power in terms of holding on to that wealth. But wealth can only get you so far. At some point, there will be a "reconciliation." There always is. Question is, what will that look like?

What about people who are neither male nor female?
DC just started issuing gender neutral drivers licenses and so has Oregon.
Are you open to "X" power also?




Dear god. Race is the least of our worries reading this shit


Yup.

That's not what "culture vulture" means, PP. a culture vulture is one who participates heavily in cultural events -- symphonies, musicales, theatre, arts, and the like.

this

i posted this in politics forum but the future of the US is Ashkenazi with a sprinkling of asians, indians, some white gentiles in the top 3-5% of society.

a managerial class of 10-15% of koreans, chinese, indians

and below 80% of a mocha mix of lumpenproles - whites, latinx, blacks,


Wishful thinking. I hope it works out for you though.


So, for the sake of my children, are cultural Jews going to be eligible for world-running, or do the ruling class Jews need to be devout as well? If so, how devout--is simply attending a few high holiday services at a reform temple ok? Or are the Orthodox Jews going to be running things?

Your answer alone will determine how often we observe shabbat (for starters).


Yes
Yes
Yes

Great google


Google further into the different meaning of the non white version of the story.

I am more afraid of setting precedents now than what color the future will look like.

So for example, I think it's dangerous to let Christian bosses/organizations decide what is in health insurance today because what might my Jehovah's Witness boss decide in 40 years?
I don't think the govt should be allowed to dictate women's clothing (i.e., outlaw the head scarf) today because what if in 40 years they outlaw bikinis?
I don't think people should be allowed to refuse service to LGBT today because what if they ostracize, I don't know, menstruating women in 40 years (see India).

And so on. I want a secular society that is run on laws, not myths and claims extrapolated or cherry picked from a Bible or Torah or Koran or whatever. I think that is the best protection for my children, minorities or not, in the future.

eh

a few thoughts

"Whiteness" can grow. I have Middle Eastern pals - first gen - who check off the white box. There are Spanish-speakers who check off the white box, too.

I check off the white box, but I'm first-gen, 100% Italian. I HAVE a culture. Yes, we stole from the Greeks, but our foods, for example, have been co-opted by many others, too. You see, Europe is small. When moving from one country to another, you see bits and pieces of other countries embedded within the different cultures.

So I'm not quite sure how we define whiteness in America. Not all white grew up with June Cleaver as their TV mom.
