Islamists use it to their advantage, as do white supremacists.

What advantage is there for the white supremacists really? They'll never gather enough support to fight 1.6 billion muslims that could actually unify over a single set of texts. If the Islamists get their way Dar al Islam with take over the whole world.

Did you see the r/Donald thread? THey want to scapegoat Muslims and mass deport them.

Media these days
Evil Muslim is not a real muslim but a terrorist
Evil white man is either a Nazi, facist or a disturbed sick lone wolf.

 

One statistic stands out though these acts are alwaystill comited by males. So let's transform the human race into an all female one with egcell and stamcel fusion.

Nobody is demonizing all white men. Just the idiot racist kind. Much like the right isn't demonizing all black men, just the idiot racist kind.

There are enough victim groups in your country, don't try to add another one.

I can't stand Alex Jones screaming nonsense at me. PJW is ok though.

Then there's the usual leftist outlets:  Salon, Vox etc. https://www.salon.com/2017/10/02/americas-white-man-problem-after-las-vegas-a-familiar-script-unfolds/

https://www.vox.com/world/2017/10/2/16396612/las-vegas-mass-shooting-terrorism-islam

So I guess the MSM are the idiot racist kind?

I see no reason why not to report the person as white then

In the shooting? Because he's dead. There is no need to warn the public about his appearance and the colour of his skin was not a contributing factor.

Besides, reporting I was referring to the collective demonisation of white men, not the media simply mentioning that he was white. There's nothing really wrong with that. Unnecessary, but not worth getting excited over.

Maybe because you're white you notice white more often. Because I would say the majority of these kinds of reports are for black people or latino. Of course I only have MSNBC, Fox, CNN, and local channels to go by since thats whats on at my job 90% of the time. So I see news most days for hours on end XD white people don't really show up too often. And when they do it's mostly for child abuse. 

Should they mention the skin color? No. Cause anyone with eyes can figure out what someone is. And blind people (except for the recently blind) would have no concept of color, at least in the same sense as sight seeing individuals. I agree it is needless. I think you can thank reporters who want to report every detail because they don't have access to the full police record

It shouldn't happen for any racial groups. And when people to it to blacks and latinos they get in huge trouble.

But I think much of the issue that people complain about though is the fact that at least on a much more mainstream, socially acceptable level, you always hear about these evil or oppressive racist whites, sometimes when it's not even warrented - where at least in my experience, I've seen more blatant, ACTUAL racism coming from other groups, and there is little to no backlash for it from MSM or social media. There is even a popular idea that "blacks cannot be racist" or worse, "that ONLY whites can be racist" which ironically ARE racist statements.

Behind all this stuff there's this undercurrent that seems to justify it under the grounds that "well whites are the most privledged and thus it's acceptable to sort of bring em down a peg." While as a WHOLE this might be true, every individual has a far different experience based on a ton of different factors and traits so it's highly unfair to paint that broad brush. Also in the US there is no longer apparent SYSTEMATIC racism that exists anymore - that is, there are no longer rights or laws that whites have special access or can benefit from which people of color are barred from. Everyone here is now granted the same rights, protections, freedoms, equal opportunities etc.. The only TRUE inequality in our country today comes from the income gap and difference in environment, which nobody seems to be emphasizing from the mainstream left these days sadly.. I mean, the top 1% own like 90% of the wealth or something but in these days all you hear about is how X person is inherantly more privledge because of their skin color somehow..? But I don't want to get too far off on that tangent so I'll stop there.

Obviously on an individual level there are racsist people of every color and both genders but it seems to me that 99% of the time in recent history the only socially ACCEPTABLE form is in the form of racism against whites. Again I don't put too much into this but I think it's clear why some might respond angrily to that. I've always been against double standards no matter what they are.

Eh, I don't know about that one. People do what they did to the white guy w/ black and Latino people all the time with no issue. Not saying that it makes it right. But I'd say instead of taking this as a war against the white population, that perhaps it'd be best to stop mentioning race in these reports all together unless the person is on the loose. 

And to be fair, they made a big deal about his Asian gf too. I found it more surprising honestly XD



The United States treats tragedies like this differently depending on the race of who carried out the attack. No one is going to vandalize a church or spit on a Christian woman or bully Christian kids at school if the gunman is white but if the gunman is Arab regardless of religion then I can guarantee I'd be reading news stories about all of those things happening to Muslims. No one is attacking white people and that's the point, the United States handles stuff like this more rationally when it's a white guy. Not only that the same would probably be true if he was black or Hispanic but the moment the shooter is from Iran or Syria then all hell breaks loose and people give into fear and bigotry. 



"white people" is just a new term found by leftist media to identify a group where to focus their irrational anger and hate.
They do it all the time.



It's different when you go to a school that's mostly Muslim like my high school was. I didn't really hear about the Islamic attacks but they would talk a lot about Muslims being killed. It was during this time when I hated hearing people talk about white privilege. One thing I noticed during school council elections was every time a Muslim went up against a non-Muslim the Muslim would win. It was then that I noticed the majority will always favor their group. And it's sad because I was really interested in Islamic history and the Arab cultures.
