The history of America is about rich white men dividing poor white people from black and brown individuals. In the colonial period, there was no concept of "white." Europeans didn't identify as such and were divided among themselves. However, the wealthy elite realized they needed to separate the poor Europeans and enslaved Africans to protect their own interests. They created the idea of whiteness, granting certain privileges to poor Europeans to align them with the elite. This allowed the rich to control and oppress black people. The creation of whiteness served as a tool to maintain power and prevent unity among the oppressed.

Under Trump, people have mobilized in large numbers to counter the alt-right and reject white supremacist violence. Now, the far right is making a final attempt to back Trump's bid to remain in power through any means necessary. It is crucial for all of us to unite, protect our streets, and dismantle Trumpism along with its neo-Nazi supporters. We must demonstrate that people of all races hold the true power, not the white supremacists.

The speaker suggests that if a society, despite being the wealthiest in history, fails to address racial disparities, it can be considered a white supremacist society.

The increase in hate groups can be attributed to shifting demographics in the US. In 1970, the country was about 83% white and 17% people of color. Today, the demographics have changed significantly, with 66% white and 34% people of color. This change has been challenging and will continue to be as we navigate it as a nation. Additionally, the fact that whites will no longer be the majority by 2040 has become part of the popular discourse, including among white supremacists. Some people mistakenly believe they can push back against this demographic shift, but it is not possible to change demographics by limiting immigration.

The wealthy business interests control everything, not politicians. They own land, corporations, and media. They lobby for self-interest, not critical thinking citizens. They want obedient workers, not informed individuals. The system benefits them, not the people. It's a rigged game, but many are unaware or indifferent.

In America, we see a pattern of white vigilantism followed by what I call "white tears," especially from men. They act out, and when held accountable, the waterworks begin. White men often get away with this, and it's effective. Even as the right attempts to politicize masculinity, claiming multiculturalism and wokeism are stealing it from American men, they still want to be able to cry.

America's history of systemic racism means that institutions have done violence to Black Americans, from slavery, Jim Crow laws, lynchings, and policing.

The following story contains graphic footage of violence. A white gunman opened fire Tuesday night on people protesting the police shooting of unarmed black man Jacob Blake in Kenosha, Wisconsin. The attack was carried out by a teenage white vigilante. Somebody white male. The white boy. White supremacist. Terrorist. He murdered protesters. I didn't do anything wrong. I defended myself. What we saw is white male privilege and white male entitlement. That white supremacist patriarchy. A system of white supremacy. The only reason why any of this is allowed is because of the whiteness of it all. Very white nationalist. White vigilante. White fear. White privilege. I didn't wanna have to kill anybody that night. Oh, baloney. White tears. I have nightmares every night. And what is the nightmare? It's just reliving the events of what happened. These are scenes playing out in a small city in America's Midwest.

Speaker 0 frames the Trump phenomenon as a 'transcendent belief system' and 'the belief system that offers you the answer to everything, the past, the present, the future,' with 'the end justifies the means belief system.' Speaker 1 argues the ruling belief system is 'grounded in racism' and 'presents an image of bringing the country back to a white majority and white power,' noting many bought in while others followed. He calls it a national-scale cult and says, for many MAGA supporters, 'make America great again' meant 'getting rid of the black and brown people.' He adds the country 'was founded on racism, has been built on racism, and nothing's ever really been done to sort of wipe that out of people's psyches.' To the MAGA crowd, 'they don't care what the price of eggs is.' He sees this as 'salvation' and that brutality and cruelty have accelerated this year.

Racism goes beyond what's visible, benefiting white people through white privilege. It shapes identities, creating norms that favor whites and hold back people of color. These beliefs are embedded in institutions, perpetuating inequality. Understanding racism is crucial to making meaningful change together.

Living under white supremacy, despite being only 9% of the global population, white people face mass unregulated immigration and media that demonizes them. This issue isn't limited to Western countries; it's a global phenomenon. The U.S. population of European descent has declined from 90% to 57%, with calls to abolish whiteness. There's a narrative suggesting that racial tensions can only be resolved by eliminating white people. Meanwhile, white people's declining birth rates are celebrated, and their representation in institutions is diminished. Other countries aren't pressured to open their borders like this, and it raises concerns about governance favoring foreign interests over native populations. This situation would have prompted significant government changes in the past, but it has become normalized today.

The speaker discusses the connection between colonization, the transatlantic slave trade, and the establishment of Africa as the ultimate racial other. They explain how the idea of race was used to justify the brutal exploitation of Africans and the dehumanization of black people. This ideology also served to legitimize the dominance of whiteness globally. The speaker emphasizes that these legacies not only defined subordinate groups but also established and legitimized the dominance of the white group. They conclude by stating that even in 2021, whiteness continues to hold power globally due to the historical processes of colonialism and the transatlantic slave trade.

The ruling class divides people to keep the rich getting richer. They use race, religion, ethnicity, jobs, income, education, and more to pit us against each other. The upper class hoards money and avoids taxes, while the middle class keeps working.

Racism is a complex system that exists in both traditional and modern forms. It is a multilayered, institutionalized system that distributes unequal power and resources between white people and people of color. All members of society are socialized to participate in this system, regardless of their intentions. To not act against racism is to support it. The focus should not be on whether racism occurred, but rather on how it manifested in a given situation. The racial status quo is comfortable for most white people, so anything that maintains their comfort should be questioned. Those who experience racial oppression have a deeper understanding of the system, but white professors are often seen as more legitimate. Resistance to anti-racist education is expected and should be addressed strategically.

There is a revolution happening against the system, which is evident in the new US administration. People are rising up against the system that we created and trapped them in.

The speaker asserts the dominant narrative in America is that white people are evil and should be ashamed. The other speaker believes people should take responsibility for the system they've created. The first speaker calls it the best system in the world, but the second speaker disagrees, citing many European countries are better off. The first speaker asks if they mean European countries with a higher density of whites, like Northern Europe, which the second speaker seems to confirm. The first speaker points out the better systems aren't in Turkey or communist Eastern Europe, implying the only systems considered better than America are more white than America.

Let's discuss the lie of DEI and, more importantly, the myth of meritocracy. We've been saying for centuries that meritocracy doesn't exist within a system of white supremacy. Under the lie of white supremacy and its systems of whiteness, these racist systems in place since the founding of the country, true meritocracy is impossible. Consider the president-elect, the chosen cabinet members, and the incoming administration. These appointments weren't earned; they exemplify white privilege and white supremacy hires. These individuals literally bought their positions in the White House with their wealth.

In America, we see a pattern of white vigilantism followed by what I call "white tears," especially from men. They act first, then cry when caught. White men often get away with this, and it's effective. Even as some try to claim masculinity is being taken away by multiculturalism, they still want to be able to cry.

History shows that when progress occurs in this country, it triggers a backlash from individuals who strive to elevate white supremacy—an ugly underbelly in American society. The speaker notes that advances such as emancipation and reconstruction were followed by a counterforce, including the Jim Crow system, the Ku Klux Klan, and a widespread lynching epidemic, illustrating a recurring pattern in which gains toward equality are met with organized resistance and violence aimed at preserving racial hierarchy. Such cycles demonstrate how social progress tends to provoke organized, violent opposition from those committed to white supremacy, reinforcing racial segregation and terror as mechanisms to resist change.

The United States is described as a semi-democratic, white-dominated, hierarchical, racist society that aims to preserve privilege for the elites, which is how it was formed in 1787. It's claimed the US was a slave-owning, genocidal country killing Native Americans for a white culture, and amazingly, it still looks that way. It's noted that while the US is now more diverse, deep cultural distinctions remain important, and the details matter.

In America, we see a pattern of white vigilantism followed by what I call "white tears," especially from white men. They act out, and when held accountable, suddenly there's an outpouring of emotion. White men often get away with it. Even as some try to claim masculinity is under attack from multiculturalism and "wokeism," they still rely on tears as a defense.

White people fear that there is no other way to be human except the way they are, which is to dominate. They believe it's human nature and that others would do the same if given the power. However, history shows that black and brown people have interacted without subjugation and colonialism. We should strive for a politics that rejects the idea of superior and inferior human beings. White people fear letting go of power because they can't imagine another way. While violence is not the solution, we must challenge their corrupt thinking. We need to remember that white colonialism and imperialism have a beginning and will eventually end. Our goal is to imagine the steps to move beyond this interruption of black and indigenous world-making caused by whiteness.

We currently have a white supremacist in the White House, supported by others with the same ideology. The majority of violent crimes in the country are committed by white supremacists, yet they continue to hold positions of power. These individuals were involved in the January 6th attack on our democracy and are now undermining it from within.

The descendants of the architects of apartheid, a system that forcibly removed Black people from arable land via the Bantustan policy, now find themselves as icons for right-wing white supremacist movements globally. They are seen as dispossessed white Christians, despite white people comprising 7% of the population and owning 78% of the farmland. This situation is viewed as a modern replacement theory, but in a context where no injustice exists against white people.

"Is because you can then misuse words like oppression." "There has been no oppression for the white man in this country." "You tell me which white men were dragged out of their homes." "You tell me which one of them got dragged all the way across an ocean and told that you are gonna go at work." "We are gonna steal your wives." "We are gonna rape your wives." "That didn't happen." "That is oppression." "We didn't ask to be here." "We're not the same migrants that y'all constantly come up against." "We didn't run away from home. We were stolen." "So, yeah, we are gonna sit here and be offended when you wanna sit here and act like and and and don't let it escape you that it is white men on this side of the aisle telling us, people of color on this side of the aisle, that y'all are the ones being oppressed, that y'all are the ones that are being harmed."
