If you are white then why don't you go turn yourself in and beg for forgiveness and atone for your skin. How you allowed yourself to be born this way I will never know.

while I do not disagree with the theme as presented - there is truth to it, white males have been taking the blame for everything wrong with our country for the last 40 years.

Not true and you repeating it and wanting it to be true won’t make it so.
We are a divided nation.

Right orwrong that is because they have been running the country and making all the decisions- right and wrong

I believe that systemic racism exists, but it is a cheap shot to blame it all on white males. (I would hold white females equally accountable for instance). Also, saying "you are a racist, fix your problem" is a non productive action that would not result in fixing the problem - it just raises hackles and creates a backlash effect that results in people like Donald Trump being elected as president. Playing the racist card is a divisive maneuver.
Show and Fix systemic racism, don't fix white males. Not all white males are Q. Not all white males marched on the Capitol (though certainly 99 percent of the males present there were white). Don't hold me responsible for what my white brothers have done.

Merely explaining why that is.
You post is right on and applies to everything. Everywhere. Not just the January 6th capitol but also to the Seattle and Portland actions.
I wish some here would realize that.
But. But a racist should be called out every-time it is obvious should they ? Dont you agree?

"But a racist should be called out very time". Absolutely agree. It is when we generalize that trouble occurs. Each and every instance of such foul behavior needs to be shown for what it is!!
