This term gets bandied about quite a lot these days, and it seems to mean different things to different people.
So what is it?
Is it real, or just a psychological tool being used to marginalise and confuse white people in their own country as some alledge?
I'm white, and I can tell you people quite sincerely I don't feel "supreme" in any way.
I will admit I did fake it once, when I got stranded in Dharan International Airport, and the only viable solution to my serious problem not of my making, was to make it someone else's problem...
Seriously, All I needed to do was strike a folded arms pose in the empty concourse, wear a stern expression and tap my foot pointedly for about ten minutes and a guy ran up to help me!
I tried to act like a traveller in a 1950's film and it worked like gangbusters.
I didn't actually SAY "now look here, my man" but I did rather complain, and ask for a representatvie of British Airways to be summoned, on the basis that it was B.A. who had stranded me at midnight, in Dharan, at the start of one their bigger religious bank holidays whilst I am supposed to have been delivered to Rhyad!
The B.A. representative (who'd clearly been woken up!) got me a connecting fllght and a trip to a hotel for a wash and a nap before being returned to find that my connecting flight was cancelled.... Literally a melee broke out amongst my fellow travellers and in amongst the shouting I heard someone say the magic word "Taxi"...
Still playing the part of a 1950's english traveller I grabbed the nearest two shouting people and said "You need to go to Rhyad, I need to go to Rhyad, CAN WE GET A TAXI??"
Long story short, 450 kilcks to Rhyad in a monstrously large cheverolet after haggling (The others were going pay the asked rate, I lived in Brimingham at the time amongst middle eastern people, so I haggled, didn't know any better) cost me 40$ U.S....
I blame all those 1950's films. I really do. T.V. and FIlm is literally "programming". Good thing the people at the airprort must have watched some of the same films I did...
I was so out of my depth. Outside Rhyad international airprot where my taxi had dropped me, (as I did not actually HAVE a final destination, the company was supposed to have picked me up at the airport some 8 hours previously, and none of the mobile numbers given were working fro me, so once I was in place at the airprort I had to get my O/H back in the U.K. to let em know I needed picking up). A sheikh looking dude was beating a smaller man with the obviously heavy and substantial black headband of his headgear...
In Dharan I'd got used to people stopping and literally falling to the fall and praying on the hour every hour.
And I'd learned that people will do a LOT for a few dollars U$ (me included).just like over here..
When chaos erupted around me as the flights were cancelled, and people were shouting at each other, my instinct was to organise a co-operative solution of like minded people with the same objective in order to achieve my own goal.
Is that "white supremacy"?
I don't know, I was too busy trying to get to my destination and adapt to the unfamiliar environment in whch I found myself, and solve the real problems I encountered, to be worried about the colour of my co-travellers.
Seriously, what is this white supremacy they keep talking about? Is it a nickname for cocaine perhaps?
And where can I get some? ;c)
The psychological abuse in this topic is actually quite revolting. It’s sad that a lot of people in here don’t see that’s what they are doing. People have every right to feel as they do about a subject without being cast as discriminatory or gullible, etc. people can disagree with the whole idea that all discrimination stems from white supremacy, doesn’t make anyone correct on that matter, especially if they think saying something and trying to explain it makes someone discriminatory or racist towards white people, that’s on them for their ignorance on the fact that white supremacy is an ideology and has nothing to do with being racist towards white people at all. Doesn’t even erase the fact that there are people who believe in white supremacy. A lot of people’s dismissiveness on the subject is actually very similar to what happened with the rise of Nazism in Germany because the biggest contributing factor to their rise was ignoring its existence. Anyone ever see the saying “Silence is complicit.” tied to the Holocaust? because I have and as the old saying goes “Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it.” well, if people want to ignore the fact that white supremacy does exist, that’s fine, then history is doomed to repeat itself. You’re choice if you want to doom every minority group out there, including all of us who are Autistic, because people with physical and mental disabilities where also murdered because they didn’t fit the white supremacist agenda of Nazism, hello, Asperger’s syndrome was named after a guy who helped the N*zis and spared specific Autistic people that fit their agenda, LGBTQ+ also didn’t fit the white supremacist N*zi agenda, that’s where the pink triangle that use to be associated with the LGBTQ+ community originated from before being changed to the pride flag. But hey, what do I know? Hitler’s goal was white supremacy and anyone who didn’t fit it from Jews to LGBTQ+ to people with mental or physical disorders had to go. I have no doubt had he been able to succeeded in his conquest he’d have gone after BIPOC too, it would have been only a matter of time because they didn’t fit his ideology either. Only white straight cis gender people fit the ideology of Nazism, making them white supremacists, but again, wtf do I know right?
oh.... do you understand how many different ethnicities went to fight for hitler?they wasnt even tricked.... do you understand the grand mufti of jerusalem proclaimed hitler a god on earth and the wests mohammad?do you understand hitler used this very ideology you are using and went to every so called minority group and offered them freedom and liberation if they rose up and fought for him he would overthrow the colonial nations and set them free? ... you dont know this do you? do you know the soviet union was the one against lgbt, and they laughed at germany and said it was in economic decline because all its people were homosexual? theres alot you dont know, all you know is propaganda and hate, the same type of hate hitler used to start his war.... which is why its the same as nazism.... he called himself a socialist too... you likely call yourself a socialist and have actually subscribed to the same type of socialism adolf had without realising.and more for you to think on, what if i said racism stems from black people and we must get rid of them to get rid of racism and then hated on them on the thought they are racist, then when im called out on that being racist i then play victim more and make pathetic defence on that claiming its ok because i have been abused, a story which is in doubt seeing as someone else suggested maybe the case then you saw it and then latched onto it and said.. yeah, thats it, so my racism is ok because of that lol
