[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seriously why so many class threads and WASP threads lately? [/quote]

Yeah -- the obsession feels very 20th Century to me.   And my WASP husband and his extended family would agree.   [/quote]

There are too many overpaid/overly wealthy yahoos about these days. That kind of overproduction produces a lot of nasty in-fighting, status obsessions, and in a place like DC, court games.

Not only is this very 20th century, it's like Jim Crow, statues of appalling slaveholders, and the SAR/DAR: all about the propaganda efforts of the 30 or so years on either side of 1900 when powerful scoundrels created our awful empire. Unfortunately, the only attempts to reassess this period so far are about the weakest parts of its legacy, the statues, but hopefully a truer picture will emerge and we can over this silliness.[/quote]

Wilson, his racist “progressive” friends and all their doings should be scrapped from the world forthwith.  [/quote]
