They're not really at war with you for being white. That's just a marketing tactic. They're at war for you being American. Which encompasses all of the things listed. They're being taught to be xenophobic, but they're on the offensive, instead of being on the defensive. It's anti-colonialism and the destruction of Americanism. Americanism was part of that democracy we were selling other countries. And to destroy Americanism, they have to destroy America, so they can implement its replacement. Communism.

I want to expand on this, because I think this framing presents a solution. Americanism is about absorbing other cultures. Americanism isn't really a white thing, and is a conglomeration of other cultures mixed in. I mean the foundation is English for the most part.

There is room to integrate other cultures to a finer degree. To have their culture heard, to give them their voice, to address their grievances. The system is purposefully built to let them do that. Instead of selling Americanism with our story, we should sell Americanism with their story. Let them tell their stories, let them sell it to us. I mean it's new content.

That's what the communists are doing, but they're not wrapping it in democratic values, they're wrapping it in communist values.

We can decouple Americanism with democracy even. There's an angle here for a solution.

you are right about everything except the first sentence. There is a war with them because to implement communism, you have to destroy the pre-existing foundations and culture(statues,) of a country. You have to destroy the culture that connects majorly with it which is white culture. All cultures are important to the country but there is always a culture that connects mostly with the soul of a successful country. The same thing happened in Russia, China, and Germany.

Yes, I agree with everything you said here. My point was that being white isn't the reason in and of itself.

You are right. It is just that I noticed some conservatives(mainly minority conservatives) don't tell their white peers to stand up for themselves and not appear weak now. Many conservatives(mostly white) are getting weaker and it is disappointing.

You are right. Americanism is the best of all of the cultures that have mixed together. Common sense and free market capitalism are the determinates in what propers and what does not.

It’s a pilpul tactic, saying “you are right” and then attempting to counter the point. It’s disingenuous

I believe in a culture of hard work, self reliance and individual responsibility, free speech, gun rights, and supporting the Constitution. I have met and seen people of all colors and ethnicities supporting those values.

What I see in Antifa is predominately white thugs and BLM protest groups often seem to have more whites than anything else.

Its not race, it's values, liberty, and freedom.
