poor kid.
I wonder what form the teenaged rebellion against this generation's moralizing church moms will take. This time the moms are liberal so I imagine the kids will play at being rightoids, the way midwestern kids used to play at satanism and shit.
Just drove through this lovely little historical neighborhood in my city, which happens to be a little pricier than surrounding areas and happens to be majority white. There was some massive graffiti on a community center which read "fuck white wealth," "Fuck you," "(founder of neighborhood) ruined this neighborhood," and "white neighborhoods are creepy."
Some raised-liberal kid is getting driven to school or errands and seeing that message of open hostility, probably getting the shit scared out of them.
Not even that wealthy of a neighborhood by the way. Doctors and lawyers, upper management in nearby corporations, engineers and shit. PMC type people, working class downwardly-mobile people in denial.
Basically what I'm saying is now is the time to start a NSBM label and start signing some teenyboppers, racking up controversy, in much the same way gansta-rap and marilyn manson-style neutered metal was used in the 90s to appeal to the disaffected teenaged children of suburban socially conservative christians.

Plutarch life of Alexander. He cross bred Greek and Asian children so that they would feel no loyalty to either empire and only the unnatural union of the two races created by his own rule. They were bred as a people-less, history-less Alexandrian mongrel race.

I grew up in the South and remember a Prof. failing me during a debate for having a thick accent, like saying "twunny" instead of "twenty". Hell, in my state there's a literal funded program to get rid of your Southern accent in our biggest university.

But as long as your accent isn't white, you're fine in academia.

The level to which hollywood wants us to hate poor rural whites, particularly poor rural whites with southern accents, is fucking insane.
I was watching "nocturnal animals" the other day, there's all these scenes where these young southern dudes are acting all menacing and rapey to a cosmopolitan family, which is in tradition with all the movies like this going back to the hills have eyes and deliverance, and I thought to myself-
first of all, this movie would never be made if they had black people playing this role. Ever. Except which subpopulation actually carries out contrived and sadistic torture-rape crimes in real life?
Meanwhile, broke rural fuckers are by and large pretty nice people who at worst have bad addiction problems they finance through disability and SSI fraud, rarely robbing or mugging people because they still have that instinctual politeness their culture hooked them up with.

I used to admire Alexander until every bibliography I have read about him mentioned his globohomo plan. (((They))) are doing the same exact thing by pushing interracial relationships on us. It's already a well known fact that mutts never fully integrate into either parents culture so they end up culturess. If they apply that notion on a national level, it shall be easier to manipulate us or at least weaken us since we have nothing to fight for.

She's retarded and believes coating her shitty theory in intellectual gibberish makes it more plausible. It's not you. It also requires reading her retarded theory on 2+2.
What she's saying is basically: if someone states: "of course math is neutral because 2+2=4," then they are coming from a position of power in the patriarchy (white devil man) and to use her aforementioned logic of why 2+2 does NOT equal 4 to fight back against that statement.

[Anonymous No.17259999]

>>17259894
Yep. As a Southerner this is what I believe. Some yanks and urbanites just look down their noses at us. Although I've gotten vitriol from Californians more than anyone in my life.
You mentioned practical skills. I remember many years ago when I joined the Army and was in Basic Training, we were out in the field for a week doing training. We only ate a single MRE a day and me and this guy I shared a foxhole with were starving (he was black too, funny enough, from the Midwest) and we decided to go out into the woodline and forage for some blackberries, honeysuckle, pansies, anything edible.
We come back and show everyone the food we got and everyone freaks out seeing me and him eat the wild fauna. They we're convinced we had poisoned ourselves and called the Drill Sergeants. Then we all got shit on after that.
I was 18 at the time and it opened up my eyes as to how unprepared some folks are without any infrastructure.

[Anonymous No.17260061]

>>17259999
Absolutely. We all want to be ready for some shit to go down, those of us who have less readiness get a lot of anxiety and perceive themselves as less-than, certainly to rural type dudes with hardened hands who don't say "my car broke" but instead identify the specific problem when cussing out their piece of shit vehicle.
For me, I'm not worried. Not that I have any major skills. I was pretty squarely sorted into the professional-managerial class before I could make any decisions about my life. I compensate a little, I know how to shoot and maintain a house without electricity (basically, use a wood stove and keep a pump from freezing) thanks to my parents' choice in leisure activities.
But I also know your average rural guy is decent, and while the infrastructure which sustains me is fragile, the raw skills I've felt drawn to (emergency medicine) will be useful regardless of whether I can get sterile normal saline from finland or whatever. I can learn to do more, and I trust my fellow man to continue to build regardless of challenges.

Yes, hence why they fear them. They’re the last remnant of an old-world lifestyle.

[Anonymous No.17260088]

I tried to explain that what they fear is not the guys but their own lack of measuring-up to these guys. It's all about the fear-er, has very little to do with the fear-ee.
It's the same narcissistic self-hatred projected onto the other which causes the cuck fetish among this population.

This happens in the UK and perhaps a few other countries as well, certain accents denote your social class and level of education.

The thing is, foraging and hunting aren't high level skills. They can easily be learned, so I don't turn my nose up at those who can't do it. They grew up in an environment where it wasn't needed and not a practical skill in a concrete jungle.
It's good that you're not worried, because you shouldn't. I guarantee any rural type person that has these skills would be happy to share them with you as well. These aren't skills that anyone would want to keep to themselves, there would never be any benefit in that. If two people can forage or hunt, then that's twice the amount of food.
Emergency medicine is extremely useful in any situation. Those skills are quite literally what can save someone's life in a pinch.
If the infrastructure falls, society will rebuild, fall again, and then rebuild. I just hope eventually we'll hit a sensible and long-lasting society.
