Allowable pride; the image is correct, all pride, except for white folks is allowed. Why?

In today's revisionist history, whitey is bad, whitey is evil, yet everyone wants to live where whitey is, why?

In today's world, we only hear of the American black slavery, never mind there were white slaves, never mind the history of slavery for all races is as old as recorded record, never mind the blacks that were taken to the Middle East, like the whites were butchered, never mind there were Irish slaves sold globally at the same time blacks were, never mind today's slavery is the most in numbers ever, never mind that there were black slave owners, never mind that other countries like Brazil carried the practice of slavery into the 20th century, never mind that a 13th amendment citizen makes us all slaves, never mind that slavery is alive in and well being used by blacks in Africa up to this day(remember the bride auctioned on facebook for cattle?), nevermind all of that shit. Why can all groups have pride, but one?

The world, and society has a long way to go in healing itself, yet we're still in the fuck it up, and ruin it stage; perhaps forever.

How did this "pride" issue become a slavery issue?

Gay pride has nothing to do with slavery.

For most minority groups, invoking "pride" equates to a lack of shame. Accept yourself, and own your identity like a boss!

"Gay Pride" = Don't be ashamed of being gay.
"Black Pride" = Don't be ashamed of being black.

Historically, "White Pride" has been a statement that was used to suggest that non-whites were inferior. The other "pride" statements are not intended to marginalize other groups.

The damn Nazi's, slavers, and segregationists messed up the white "pride" claim for everyone.

but why? Why should any white person, bow down to being labeled a nazi, or worse should they 'have pride'?

I mean, groups like the 'proud boys', are labeled a white extremist, or white separatist, or white pride group, but the only reason I know this, is because I looked them up, because the leader is I think black, and after research, the group has all colors, yet officially it's labeled 'hate'....

So, who labeled it-msm, and why-steer agendas.... at least that's what I see. I mean it looks like a diverse group, I don't care if it was, or not, but to label it what they have, I literally see insanity.

So, I guess I could be rambling, but the slavery from a pride poster is easy, all groups can have pride of their group, but whites; why? As you posted, we must pay for the banker's boogie men of bygone eras.

Whites cannot have a swastika, but the Jews, and all of Asia, and Japan can have it.

I think the word I'm looking for is, 'collective punishment'... .on that note, my family fought the nazi's, I guess I should go make amends for the Jews.... Oh shit, now I caught myself, as I'm a little bit.....

It's not about bowing down and being labeled a Nazi. It's about the fact that the "white power" message already has multiple meanings, and most of them are viewed negatively (by most people).

I can't deny what you write, but it still reeks of subjugation; the idea of equality through subjugation really doesn't work to well, but in reading this thread, I'm writing up something that will obviously not go anywhere, but I think could be a great working solution.

The reason it won't go anywhere, those in power, need us divided, yet spouting unity. The idea of what works, is in their view tantamount to murder; as it would give people I think a sense of calm....soon to write.
