I know, and it's [i]her turn!"[/i][/quote]

Who the F thinks this?  I'm a die-hard feminist and have worked with lefty liberal feminists for 20 years.  NONE of us believe this.  Your fear is showing.[/quote]

I think people don't realize that the 'her' in her turn is a generic 'her' like when we say 'her story' instead of history.

All I can say is that while not all Trump supporters are racist, they are all incredibly privileged and object to that privilege being taken away. they are furious that white people who haven't graduated HIGHSCHOOL don't make as much $$ as asians/hispanics.blacks who have gone to grad school. Its ridiculous - how exactly do you expect to be anything but a failure if you don't finish high school? That is by definition the picture of a failure. FFS people in developing countries know that you need an education do succeed in life- Malala took a bullet for an education- how is Trump going to fix that? he went to college even though his family had enough $$ to set him up.

I mean you've got people in India and Indonesia shifting away from manufacturing and learning to program etc. . The human race doesn't need human beings to make stuff anymore we can make stuff with robots, handmade stuff are luxuries. If you are some one who can't work with only your mind you have to learn a trade like plumbing etc. . b/c mindless shiftwork is done.  This change has been a longtime coming, it  hasn't been sprung on anyone. For a very long time white americans got to shove everyone off the racetrack with cement barricades and complete only against one another. now everyone in the entire world's in the race- of course its has gotten harder, if you want it to go back to the way it was before you have to acknowledge that you want to oppress others and that [i]is[/i] racist.

People need to look at world history- the european dominion over resources was caused by a series of historical accidents- its not sustainable, having an antiracist ideology is actually protective for white americans b/c most Asians and African are very racist, they feel about white american culture the same way whites feel about african american family structure. Its in european americans & latin Americans best interest to push tolerance b/c its not far that all the nations in Asia and the african coasts will have undergone the korean 'miracle'.  Hiding your head in the sand like Trump is advocating isn't going to help. The Ming tried it as did the Mughals and the ottomans- look how well it turned out for them.  We should advocate western values and tolerance until it convinces Asians and Africans b/c civilization doesn't always march forward- when the Roman empire fell it had devastating consequences, we lost access to basic technologies and scientific knowledge.
