Few things make me more angry that the “white privilege” bullshit, and I detest “Black History Month, so-called “Affirmative Action”, etc. Most liberal people will think that makes me “racist” in the worst possible ways…to them, I offer a hearty FUCK YOU! I know all the stuff this guy says in the vid about Jefferson and “all men…equal” is true. So what? Utterly irrelevant to here and now. Hey, I spent my time as a white nigger, picking cotton from before dawn till after sundown, fingers, pricked, cracked and bleeding from the points of the cotton bowls. I know what it is to spend over half a century in this country being poor as dirt, often surviving only because of Food Stamps, Disability, etc. Being “white” never got me shit, Jack, and it angers me so much I want to slap the piss out of people who talk out their ass about such things.
