The White Man's Fear

[On Guard for Thee]

Question to mods. Is "guffaw" acceptable in lieu of "bwahaha" in a case like this?

Either one sounds about right.

I am actually encouraged a little bit by developments in relations with First Nations lately. I had thought that Harpers actions in establishing the Truth and Reconciliation inquiry might help, as would his national apology for residential schools.

But the failure of the education funding initiative(which the AFN eventually rejected over accountability of funds) is the legacy he'll be remembered for. The inquiry into dead and missing aboriginal women will proceed, but I predict it will return some results that won;t sit well with FN leadership, assuming the Inquiry has a broad mandate. I doubt Trudeau will permit a broad mandate though.

What does give me some hope is that the broader public is now more aware of the issues, and the actual consequences upon First Nations of residential schools now- not over the course of 100+ years, but the consequences now, on FN people today. Even better is the impact I trust it will have on FN people at a much more grassroots level than before. FN people were polticized by Idle No More, and more so by the last election where many FN people voted for the first time. And I think that will result in an outcome badly needed by AFN, needed as much as an engaged federal govt and an engaged white population. That outcome is an improvement in FN leadership, which is required for progress.

What we all need to remember is to be patient. Many First Nations have come through a mini-Holocaust....... where the children were taken away from their parents for forcible cultural assimilation. They were returned to their communities, then their children were taken away in turn. The result was successive generations of people who were scarred early by the experience, and have little idea on how to be parents. Let's be patient for as long as it takes.

That's an intriguing statement.

[eyeball]

So with this experience and awareness of how the process works, will it still remain a big leap to see how our culture's abuse of weaker culture's in the ME region has resulted in a similar but far worse disaster?

Mini holocaust? Because having your kid go to boarding school is so similar to having your entire family gassed and burned?

Only a third of native kids went to boarding schools, and a lot of their parents WANTED them to.

[PIK]

The RCMP have did a report on it and have said the problem lies with their own people ,or family doing the killing. Most of the cases have been solved and this new inquiry will not go over well ,if the same answer comes out as in the RCMP report. And mini holocaust is a little strong. The one thing the media did not do well on ,is the fact a lot of natives came thru OK and did better because if it. It was ugly, but not it all.

By silencing white men, Canada can’t have an honest debate about equality, race and culture

The noteworthy aspect of that headline is that anyone would dare write it in a mainstream newspaper. Of course, it wasn't a white man who dared to write it, because in Canada, white men aren't allowed to express their opinion on racial or cultural issues (except for unquestioned admiration for multiculturalism and diversity) without being castigated as racists and bigots - as we have repeatedly seen on this site.

I agree with much of what Dosanjh says, especially with regard to Canada having and needing to have a 'mainstream' and the need for newcomers to adapt and integrate into Canada. I also agree that Trudeau's fatuous denial that there was any mainstream or core identity in Canada was mindless political correctness that makes no sense whatever.

This fear has habituated many Western leaders in their frailty to speak the unvarnished truth about the need for the refugees and immigrants welcomed into these societies to fully integrate in them. It is not about changing one’s religion or bleaching one’s skin to make it paler. It is about learning the moral, ethical, social and political anchors that, in this case, Canada is rooted in.

And with 80-85% of all new immigrants coming to Canada from the non-white world, it will only get worse for white people to express their opinions about certain matters. And when we do try to express our opinions we get called racist,bigot,white supremo,nazi or what ever other derogatory name they can come up with to try and shut us down. This needs to change or else it's game over for Caucasians in this country.

Canada is stuck with this multiculturalism program and agenda which is clearly meant to shove the white people aside, and if allowed to continue it will eventually be the white man/woman's downfall. It has nothing to do with racism but more to do with the instinct to want to survive as a people.

Europe is committing suicide. This Trojan horse of the fakeugees is just a prelude to what is going to happen.

So sad. I'm advicing all the youngsters I deal with to emigrate to palces such as Canada, the USA, Australia. I'm too old to move and where would I move from my home anyway.

You need to encourage your own people to stay and fight the battle for the survival of the Europeans and European culture. To run away is what the multicultural manipulators want white people to do. Many European countries have said enough already, and are not willing to accept anymore refugees, and some countries don't want any new refugees at all. Many Europeans are fighting back, and they see the damage that will be created if all these non-Europeans keep on entering their country. All countries should stop all immigration until the mess can be cleared up that was setup by Merkel of Germany who started all this trouble. She let them in by the thousands, and now wants the rest of Europe to take some of them in. I say let her stew in her own refugee pot and leave the rest of Europe alone. Those countries you mentioned are starting to have the same problem of mass non-European immigration and things may just get worse here as time goes on with these so-called refugees.

If these refugees are so poor off, just how or where did they get the money to be able to pay for the boats that brought them over to Europe, and how come these same refugees seem to all have cell phones? This was a planned invasion by some evil people who want to destroy Europe. Don't let it happen. Fight for your country, and get the youth to fight for their culture and heritage and traditions. It's do or die.

What's the "non-white world"? Is America part of that, since indigenous people have been here for centuries and colonists brought African slaves over in droves? Just curious for a friend.

Countries where whites are not in the majority.

Which definition of "white" are you using? Are we going with the old one where Irish aren't white and Italians aren't white and Spanish aren't white? Or do you go with a more contemporary one where you just mean Jews, Asians, black people, Arabs, and dark-skinned Latinos? So like 7/8 of the world.

WASPS only WASPS

So basically Canada, the UK. Scandinavia and Easter Europe could also be included.
