Only in private.

Why would a political party categorically shun any large and diverse demographic group?

The "white working class" in the US includes large numbers of people who are young, unmarried, irreligious, or enrolled in public benefits - all groups that vote heavily for Democrats, to the extent that they vote at all.

The Republican Party ignores minorities and see how that helps them? (Not).

Republicans have the trifecta in Washington.

I think it's worth mentioning that there is a handful of states where white deaths outnumber white births.  I used to feel kinda sad about that, but you know, there's this novel thing called "personal responsibility" that fewer people are taking advantage of these days.  You know, "personal responsibility" - that buzzword that Republicans and olds on Facebook throw around when ever they feel like taking out their grievances out on minorities and young people?

I do not like to make light of most people's deaths, but perhaps it is time these folks started practicing what they preach.  Instead of blaming the blacks or the gays or the Muslims or the Jews or any other "baddie" for your own shortcomings, try owning those things yourself.  And if, for what ever reason, you cannot contribute anything of value to the community you live in, then at least have the courtesy to not pass on your legacy to future generations who might otherwise have a better shot at life than you did.  That's what I've been, uh, "practicing," and it's worked quite well for me so far.  It will work as well for anyone regardless of their race or their gender or how much of their lives they've spent sitting in a cubicle, or wherever.

For disclosure: if saying all of this makes me a Horrible Person™, I'm fine with that classification.  I accept it.  But at any rate, my own health problems (which I have tried not to make too big a deal about in public... not anymore at least) are going to kill me by middle age anyway, so it's not like it really matters.  I don't use that as an excuse to sht on everybody who doesn't look like me or engage with the metaphysical the same way that I do.

Live a simpler life.  Take responsibility for yourself.  Don't have children out of wedlock.  Take care of your own family (if you have any) and what goes on in your own backyard.  Turn yourself over to something greater than yourself.  Quit idolizing celebrities.  Those things are what's in the best interest of the "white working class," and more.

oh, and stop watching porn. Wink


Oh, and on a final important note, my disdain for WWC yahoos should not be taken as a nod to Silicon Valley yuppies/elitists, who have as much a role in America's cultural decay as anyone else.

Even if I understand your frustration "personal responsibility" is a nasty, nasty snakish phrase and should be rejected wherever it comes up.

This is part of the problem.

No, but a person who uses their failures to justify open hostility to minorities deserves no sympathy, as far as I'm concerned, from anyone.  The left becomes complicit in this when they write these attitudes off as "economic anxiety."  If anything, they are completely fine with suffering as long as the people they hate suffer more.

We did not get people like Paul Ryan, Donald Trump, and Greg Gianforte in our government by accident, remember.  People had to vote those guys in.
