Chain Rection: The Impact of Race, Rights, and Taxes on American Politics

[JoeB131]

Malcolm X was murdered by Black Muslims. The killing of Martin Luther King was not the fault of the store owners whose stores were looted and burned. The black ghetto riots only began after the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was passed into law and the War on Poverty was declared. Because of the black ghetto riots, Nixon was elected in 1968, and the War in Vietnam continued until 1975.

White backlash happened because whites had had enough of black crime and welfare expense.

I lived in Chicago when the MLK riots happened.

The first race riots happened in Newark in 1967, after the beating by police of a cab driver.

Also, you mention the race riots without mentioning the violence against civil rights activists that proceeded it, such as the murder of Medgar Evers in 1963, the bombing of the 16th Street Church that killed four little girls, the murder of three civil rights workers in Mississippi. Seems to me that people just got tired of NICELY asking for white people to act better. Kind of like 2020 and the BLM riots. BLM had been around for a decade, asking white people to knock that shit off.

Violence against peaceful civil rights demonstrators benefited the civil rights movement. Violence by black ghetto rioters hurt the civil rights movement and led to white backlash. Nothing justifies black ghetto rioters.

If black lives matter, why do so many black men kill black men, black women, and black children? Why do so few black men marry the women with whom they have children, and raise those children properly?

Bullshit.

White people don't do the right thing unless you threaten to burn their stuff.

That's what happened in 1968
That's what happened in 1992
That's what happened in 2020.

Let's try doing the right thing before anyone's stuff gets burned next time. You know, just for a change.

Let's try doing the right thing before anyone's stuff gets burned next time. You know, just for a change.

What happened in 1968 was the election of Richard Nixon. What happened in 1992 was the election of Bill Clinton, who signed bills to reduce welfare payments and increase prison sentences.

What might have happened in 2020 was the reelection of Donald Trump. That is what did happen in 2024.

Black ghetto riots need to be crushed by a coalition of policemen, military men, and deputized gun owners. They need to be crushed as quickly as possible and as violently as necessary. There must be no concession to black ghetto rioters.

 

[Hector12]

Third world people risk their lives to come here illegally. They find jobs. Those are jobs welfare recipients should be doing. If we stop paying welfare checks for unmarried mothers and their illegitimate children and increase the severity of the criminal justice system we will experience tax savings, and have an easier time controlling our borders.

 

[JoeB131]

What happened in 1968 was the election of Richard Nixon.

Because of Vietnam, not the race issues. Also, the Democrats (much like this year) shot themselves in the feet that year. LBJ stepping down, RFK getting shot, and Humphrey equivocating on how he'd handle 'Nam. If RFK had won the nomination with a clear policy on ending Vietnam, he'd have mopped the floor with Tricky Dick.

I should also point out that the riots in Chicago during the DNC was exclusively white people protesting the war, and Dick Daley unleashed the dogs on them. Bad look overall.

What happened in 1992 was the election of Bill Clinton, who signed bills to reduce welfare payments and increase prison sentences.

You see, this is where you are confused, buddy. Bill was a liberal. Black people loved him. Most black people don't collect welfare, and were fine with welfare reform.

What might have happened in 2020 was the reelection of Donald Trump. That is what did happen in 2024.

Um, no, Trump was toast in 2020, for a lot of reasons.

Trump's re-election had to do with Biden refusing to be forced out to the last minute, and the country being too misogynistic to vote for a woman. Inflation didn't help, even though Biden's policies only moderately effected it.

Black ghetto riots need to be crushed by a coalition of policemen, military men, and deputized gun owners. They need to be crushed as quickly as possible and as violently as necessary. There must be no concession to black ghetto rioters.

Yeah. good luck with that.

Um, you do realize that most of the military men are people of color, right?

Here's a tip from a former National Guardsman... the one thing they teach the guard about riots is "Those are you fellow citizens out there, they are damned angry about something, and they have every right to be!"

Third world people risk their lives to come here illegally. They find jobs. Those are jobs welfare recipients should be doing. If we stop paying welfare checks for unmarried mothers and their illegitimate children and increase the severity of the criminal justice system we will experience tax savings, and have an easier time controlling our borders.

A couple of problems with this

First, most folks on welfare DO have at least one family member with a job. Often, Medicaid, SNAP, Section 8, are supplements to income for people doing menial jobs.

Second- the US locks up more people than any other nation in the world. We lock up more people than Red China. (Do people still call it Red China?) If locking people up were a solution, we'd be there. Meanwhile, most other industrialized democracies have far more generous welfare benefits, and lock up far less people.

Third - Probably having never gotten laid in your life, you probably don't understand human relationships are a lot more complicated as to why women have babies out of wedlock.

Fourth, if you really want to cut spending, get rid of Social Security and Medicare and make families take care of their own oldsters! We spend far more keeping the middle class from becoming poor than we spend on trying to elevate the poor out of poverty.

Most military men are white. Welfare "families" consist of an unmarried welfare "mother" with a litter of illegitimate children by different men. Frequently the welfare mother does not know who the fathers are. One fourth of Negroes have IQ's below 75. At that level they cannot educated, and they are unemployable.

Actually, no, they aren't. The most diverse workplace I've ever worked in was the US Army.

As for national guard units, they are going to reflect their local communities...

When I was in the IL Guard, there was a battalion, the 1/178th Infantry. The white officers jokingly referred to it as "The Governor's African Rifles".

The rest of your fucking diatribe is your usually sexual frustration that black folks are getting laid and you can't.

Negroes are not discriminated against. They are discriminated in favor of with affirmative action programs. The reason so many of them are poor is because they tend to be much less intelligent than whites. The reason so many of them are in prison is because they have extremely high crime rates.

RIP DEI? The war on 'woke' America has a new commander-in-chief​

Jessica Guynn
USA TODAY

On the campaign trail, Donald Trump promoted the idea that white Americans were targets of racism and made reversing Joe Biden’s “woke takeover” of Washington a priority of his second term in office.

Now with Republicans in control of the White House and both branches of Congress in 2025, the president-elect is in a position to make good on his promises to crack down on corporations that do business with the federal government.

On the chopping block: diversity, equity and inclusion programs.

“President Trump has been very clear about ending the woke DEI garbage infecting this country, and the American people voted overwhelmingly to do just that,” said Trump spokesman Steven Cheung.

Trump is staffing his government with loyalists who want to de-“woke” America, from Pete Hegseth, a former Fox News host and decorated combat veteran who is Trump’s choice to be Pentagon chief, to Brendan Carr, Trump’s pick for Federal Communications Commission chairman.

Stephen Miller, one of Trump’s longtime aides who has been tapped as a top policy architect in the new administration, has spent the past four years spoiling for this fight, filing dozens of legal actions against “woke” corporations.

“As every day passes and you read more about the types of people he is appointing to different positions, organizations have to take this very seriously,” said Allan Schweyer, a principal researcher with business research group The Conference Board.

I doubt many companies genuinely liked affirmative action. They had affirmative action programs in place to avoid problems with the government. Now that Trump is president millions of Negroes are going to be fired from jobs they never could perform adequately. Positions will be opened for Jews and Orientals who can perform those positions adequately.

Christopher Rufo Has Trump’s Ear and Wants to End DEI for Good​

Douglas Belkin, Wall Street Journal, November 25, 2024

The first time then-President Donald Trump asked Christopher Rufo to come to Washington for a meeting with his team, the result was a 2020 executive order banning race or sex stereotyping in the federal government.
Now Rufo has an invitation to Mar-a-Lago, where he will present the president-elect’s team with a plan to geld American universities by withholding money if they don’t pull back on diversity measures. It is the latest chapter in Rufo’s quest to end activities that he says divide Americans and foster bias against different groups, including white men.

From his perch outside Seattle, the 40-year-old documentary filmmaker and writer has become one of the country’s most influential—and effective—culture warriors, waging public fights against diversity, equity and inclusion efforts in schools, businesses and government.
Rufo exposed plagiarism in the academic scholarship of Harvard President Claudine Gay and in the writings of Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris. His reports played a role in Gay’s subsequent resignation in January of this year and damaged Harris’s campaign. He has also taken aim at diversity practices in large companies, most recently at Boeing.
A father of four who relishes throwing rhetorical grenades at the progressive left, he said he isn’t pursuing a role in the Trump administration but wants to help shape its agenda.

JD Vance, among many others in the new Trump administration, is listening.

Vance views Rufo as “a leading voice in the movement to restore merit and excellence” to universities, a spokeswoman said, adding that the vice president-elect believes Rufo “recognizes schools and universities exist to equip American students to face tomorrow’s challenges, not to indoctrinate them with the fringe beliefs of the far left.”

Rufo said he is meeting with members of the Trump administration next month. He has said he thinks colleges and universities have been taken over by the left, and he wants to recapture them by cutting federal money to schools that continue to engage in DEI practices. He also wants to excise race-based affirmative action from any institution with which the federal government does business.

He has a particular animus toward elite universities, which he says traded merit and rigor for neo-Marxism and discrimination against white and Asian people.

In Trump’s second term Rufo sees an opportunity to finally excise the ideology that has animated his campaigns. His stated goal: make America a colorblind society by eliminating rules that mandate behavior or special treatment according to race.

Rufo said he has succeeded in demonizing CRT and DEI in the public’s mind. Now he wants to uproot what he sees as an administrative state that keeps the policies in place across universities, government and businesses. Rufo, along with former Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, says Trump should reverse President Lyndon Johnson’s executive order establishing affirmative action in the federal government.

Trump's going to be there for four years or less. And given how badly he's going to fuck things up, the GOP will spend a decade in the wilderness.

Then it will be right back to business as usual for DEI.

Trump's anti-DEI brigade prepares to take power​

President-elect Trump's initial Cabinet picks show he's moving swiftly to implement the anti-trans, anti-DEI and anti-social justice agenda that underpinned his reelection campaign.
Why it matters: In the eyes of many Republicans, Trump's decisive election victory vindicated their hostility toward nebulous "woke" ideologies. In practice, their plans could mean purging the federal government of policies Democrats supported to reverse what they saw as unfairness and inequalities.

Trump's latest wave of Cabinet nominees include Pete Hegseth for secretary of defense, Tulsi Gabbard for director of national intelligence and Matt Gaetz for attorney general — all of whom have blasted DEI (diversity, equity and inclusion) policies as racially divisive.

• Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy — two of the most prominent critics of what they call "the woke mind virus" — have been tasked with "slashing and burning" federal spending from outside the government.

The big picture: "Woke" was a term popularized after the 2020 murder of George Floyd to describe plans to attack systemic racism with policies that encouraged cultural awareness and understanding.

• But conservatives have recast the term as a liberal threat to gender norms and what they consider traditional values.
• In recent years, Republicans in Congress and in red states have waged a legislative "war on woke" by targeting trans rights, racial diversity policies in academia, and environmental, social and governance (ESG) principles in business.
• Now, with control of the White House and both branches of Congress in 2025, Trump and the GOP have their sights trained on auditing and overhauling three agencies in particular: the Pentagon, the Justice Department and the Department of Education.

Driving the news: Trump's shock nomination of Hegseth, a Fox News host, for defense secretary is the clearest sign yet that the president-elect wants his incoming Cabinet to be staffed by conservatives who oppose DEI initiatives.

Because of the considerable race gap in average intelligence, it is not possible to achieve diversity, equity, and inclusion without lowering objective standards of excellence for Negroes. I have difficulty believing that most employers want to hire inadequate negroes, and that most white and Oriental employes enjoy working with them.

I won't matter. Companies will still do DEI.

So will a lot of government agencies, who will probably ignore Trump's dictates, knowing he's gone in four years or less.

So TRump will huff and puff and get very little accomplished, other than create sympathy for the people he's picking on
