Are you talking about when people say the guy “didn’t fit the profile” after the revelation he a white man and not Arabic? And then other respond by showing other white men who committed similar acts within the US?

That’s not racism, that’s simply pointing out that the argument of “not fitting the profile” is bullshit. It would be foolish to take offence to that; also oversensitive and sickeningly hypocritical.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

No. I'm talking about articles linked earlier that openly state that there is a problem with white males as a group. Also, I never said I was offended, just sick of the identity politics and felt like pointing out the irony in this case.

Since the Las Vegas shooting I am noticing a disturbing trend where people in the liberal media and elsewhere are collectively demonising a group of people based on the colour of their skin. This group is 'white men'.

I'm not sure what the whiteness of a persons' skin has to do with their character. Dr Martin Luther King would be appalled.  If anyone referred to any other group in a negative light i.e 'black women', or 'brown people' they would probably end up being fired (or worse).

I see these groups saying that if this was an Islamic terror attack, all Muslims would be demonised. This is a false equivalence. Islam is not a race, it's a set of (really bad) ideas. ISIS read and refer to the same texts as moderate muslims. Bad ideas can be criticised. Most importantly though, Muslims can be any colour. Just as communists, Christians and fascists can be.

I can't believe the liberal media don't see the double standard, and dangerous people like Jared Taylor are just waiting for enough people to fall for the identity politics to build a political platform based on 'race realism'. He claims he is not a white supremacist. But read his work, he considers black people akin to a different species.

We can't let this happen. We saw the results of this over 70 years ago. Wake up.

White people tell me that this kind of racism and discriminaton is not real and that when people of other races just exaggerate experiences to gain public sympathy...

'White people' tell you this? Or people who just happen to be white? You seem to be buying into the identity politics my friend.

I know that as a white person, you don’t think you’re racist. You don’t shout things in the street, you don’t think people of colour deserve to be paid less. You might even have some black friends.

That doesn’t mean that you’re not racist.

The conclusion of everything mostly comes down t othat white people are the most evil and racist people on the planet. Yet for some reason the only people capable to build wealthy nations (by plundering and stealing recourses of course) and people of colour are forced to live in these racist nations. Also that white people are socialised to be racist and every white country is ruled from and by white supremacy

OP said that he is refering to stories that came after the Las Vegas shooting.
And regarding the first link, the author questions what it means to be racist. It's not demonizing white people, but posing a question to them.

Though I don't think anyone denies that white people have commited the most horrible attrocities to mankind in our history. That doesn't mean that we should all be held accountable for those actions, or that it's a common opinion among news outlets that we should.

Anyway, I'm curious exactly what news outlets OP is refering to. If it's one obscure underground news outlet that has 78 readers, and not CNN, MSNBC, etc , then don't just say "liberal media" because leaving it at that that is ambigous at best, and misleading. Say exactly which publication is saying this.

Already did. Check this links on page 3. CNN, Sydney Morning Herald and others. Someone else has linked more too.

Edit: added to OP. Should have done that in the first place.

Seems like a lot of people here have bought into the identity politics....Richard Spencer and Jared Taylor would be proud.....

Come on people. Like I said: wake up.

It's definitely an issue. Much like generalising all Muslims and labelling them as 'terrorists' whenever a terrorist attack by a Muslim happens. But like I said previously, these almost always come from individuals whose stance lies on either the extreme left or the extreme right side of the political spectrum.

It's kinda scary how the MSM falls in the extreme left side of the spectrum though.

That's false and you know it.

You know how it works for those people. Everything not Breitbart is considered ‘liberal’ media. 

What do you mean "those people" ? 

Those people are those who consider everything not for their liking 'fake news' and 'leftist/-ard propaganda' by the 'liberal' media. You know, those who have grown like mushroom lately, getting rallyed up by authoritarian idiots.
