The Liberal Interpretation of the White Working Man

If you read the papers these days,and you read about US politics & Donald Trump, and more specifically his voters, one thing you're probably going to come across again and again is the discussion of the "white working class" and their so-called obsession with "Toxic masculinity". Over and over again you will be told, by college educated people who go to work in an office in  slacks and a silk tie, about how fiercely the white working class has rejected the feminist revolution, about how hateful they are of the LGBT community, and especially, of course, about how much they resent the "rise" of the black and the minority etc.

You will be told countless times how these people will perhaps do anything in their power to "keep blacks down" etcetc. You will be told about how unfair whites in this country have been to blacks, and about how mean, crude and uneducated non-college educated working whites in the United States are. What you'll never be told, of course, is just how mean, crude, and uneducated some, if not many,  of these blacks the liberals love to defend, endlessly, also are, when you chance to actually meet them in the streets of the ferocious American city.  You will never be told that, when it comes to toxic white masculinity in the United States, much of it is undoubtedly being driven forward and repeatedly embraced, as a direct result of the fact that white men in America feel they have to compete, constantly, with the black man, who is often thought to be the most masculine and meanest son of a bitch who has ever walked the Earth.  Alas, the liberals, in their silk ties, with their Bachelors Degrees, and their shiny Dockers, typing behind desks, find all of this preposterous.

 In fact, the very idea that any white man, anywhere, has ever had to "compete" with a black man, in this holier than thou Country, is, apparntly, an impossible to believe thing for the American liberal. But, nevertheless, it is a definite fact of life for almost any white man who has grown up in or around one of the many utterly destroyed & filthy American cities: They are told, by the media, by their family, by the hip hop music, and by the actual statistics themselves, that black men are lurking right outside their door , in wild street gangs. They are told that black men are enormous and that black men may very well want to murder them, because black men are quite angry about being oppressed for 400 years, and being dealt a shit hand. They are told that black men are not very happy, over and over. And then, don't forget, they are told that they, even if they live on the side of the road, have something called "white privilege".

The modern liberal looks out across the sea of white working class culture and he sees a nation of people, specifically white men, who are, to him, crude, ignorant, mean, and greedy. He sees men who, he is convinced, do not at all understand what blacks have been through, and who do not understand just how hard of a time the blacks have had as a minority, here in this miserable country. Well, here is what I say to the liberal in his Dockers and his silk tie: You are smart, I suppose, but when it comes to the topic of race in tis country, you are just as wrong as the dirty Republicans. You are miserable wrong. You are a moron, in fact. And the reason you are wrong is because, after living myself in the squalor of your filthy American cities for all of my life, and living oftentimes in majority black areas where I never felt safe past sundown, or even during the day, I can tell you, for certain, that many white working men in this miserable country are absolutely aware of just how much of a shit hand the black man has been dealt. In fact, the ignorant white working man that you never stop ripping on ia ultra aware of it-- he is perhaps even more aware of it than these fancy holier than thou liberals--because unlike the liberals with their office jobs, the working white man is the one who often has to send his kids to school with the blacks, who has to go to prison with the blacks, who has to work in black neighborhoods,  and who has to actually see the blacks.  He is the one who has to go to war and fight alongside the blacks in a jungle halfway across the world. And then of course he has to come home and be told that he is an ignorant non-college educated fool who "knows nothing of black suffering".

The real truth of the white working mans relationship with the blacks is that, every time the liberals or, of course, the rich Republicans, piss the black man off again, he is the one who has to deal with the anger of the black man, not the liberals or the rich Republicans. The white working man is not some moralist who is a saint, and he does not sit reading essays about slavery in  the New Yorker on Sunday morning, because he has no time to read the New Yorker on the weekends nor on the weekdays. But that does not mean that the white working man is "ignorant" to the sufferings of the blacks. The real issue with the white working man is that he is, in fact, **so acutely aware** of the blacks suffering that he sees it for what it now is, instead of what the liberals merely think it is : The white working man understands that the blacks are not just little innocent children crying and wanting to hold Mommys liberal skirt, at this point in US history. That's just what the educated liberals *think* they are...they think the blacks are crying, that they are helpless, that they are innocent, and pure, sad, and to be pitied, like halfwits.

They think this becuase, from afar, that is indeed what the blacks look like, when you take them as a whole. They are a minority group that has been fucked over, railroaded, slandered, screwed, and cheated time and time again. The issue, of course, is what many of them wound up becoming as a result of this, in our current American epoch. And quite frankly, many of them have become very angry, vicious, and frightening madmen.  I am not afraid to say this or write it, like a liberal would be, because I know that it is the truth. This is a group that has been pushed, repeatedly, to the lowest and most vicious, ruthless spheres of this culture, and so what has now happened, naturally, is that they are some of the toughest fighters and men inside the culture. This is a problem for the working class white man because, unlike the cozy upper class liberal, the working man often has no real protection in place ....besides what he himself can create. He, in other words, does not live in a castle. He often lives in a shit apartment with a cheap door that a child could probably break down and no security.....

And so what has happened but that, as a result of this ferocious presence within the country, the working white man has responded in the only way he feels makes sense: He has gotten himself armed to the nines, he has begun to pump himself up with steroids in order to become a titanic body builder, and he has refused to embrace even the slightest hint of "feminism" or "homosexuality". The cozy liberal of course looks at all of this and says that the working man is "too dumb" and "too CRUDE"to embrace the 21st centurys newfound love of homosexuals and feminists, ballet dancers, cross dressers, nail polishers, and hairdressers. The truth of it is that the working man is not, in fact, too crude to embrace this new world of transgendered folk and pink haired sweethearts.

What he is , ironically, is too SCARED. He is scared, in fact, just like the blacks themselves are scared of it! He is scared, just like the blacks are, to let his GUARD DOWN.

 For the shocking truth of the blacks that the liberals love and protect and whose vote they awlays get is that, surprise surprise, the blacks are not actually very liberal at all, in their demeanor or their attitude or their culture. They vote liberal, yes they do, and have for many decades now, since the so-called "Southern strategy" (which I, as a "bipartisan", believe was real) but they do not act liberal. One need only look at the wide offering of media the blacks have offered up to us as proof of this: their hip hop music, their soul music, their Television shows, their BET, even their Wendy Williams.…I do not think any of this could be described as "liberal". If anything, it is, as I am saying, some of the most misogynistic, queer hating, anti-feminist and masculine stuff around. Many working class white boys who love hip hop artists like 50 Cent, Dr. Dre, and Snoop Doggie Dogg, for example, tend to be the biggest queer hatin', gun totin' folks I've ever known. Yet, according to the tenets of American liberalism, they like blacks, and so they should be libs. They should be ardent gun control advocates. They should be lovers of queers in pink wigs and cross dressers.  Right? No. They hate them more than anyone. Hell, many of these new kids don't even like rock and roll anymore. How come? "It's too queer". Why is it too queer? Because hip hop music was created, and in comparison to hip hop music, I suppose rock and roll, evne if it sounds aggressive and distorted, does seem a bit queer. The white working class has picked up on this. They put their gate up. They armed themselves. They saw the blacks were angry,so they got angry too.

Now at this point, one imagines the liberal responding that the working white has - what else?- had the "wrong response" to the black problem. In some ways, the liberal is undoubtedly right. The working white is not responding in the kindest or most sympathetic way to the black problem. He is excaerbating it, most definitely, and making it all much worse than it has to be. However, at the same time as that, guess what? So too is the liberal making it worse, by insinuating, time and time agian, that the white working man has no reason -- at all-- to feel aggrieved, or frightened, or lost, or bewildered under the current racist system. The liberal is, in acertain sense, participating in a form of "race baiting" just like the rich Republicans (Jeff Sessions, Mitch McConnell, Paul Ryan,George Wallace) always have, as well. The only difference is that the liberal has decided to direct literally **all** his anger at the white male, and now to be more specific, the straight white male. He has made a specific target of him, he has pointed him out, and he made no secret of his contempt for the straight white working male. So now the white working male is no longer just angry with the blacks whom he thinks want to attack him with their Bloods & Crips, he is also angry with the Democrat & liberal in general. Because they basically put a price on his head! What did they think was going to happen?

 The liberal has lost the white working vote because they thought it would be fun to make an alliance of specifically oppressed people (blacks, LGBT, feminists, immigrants) rather than include everyone who needs a little bit of help. The liberal has lost the white wokring vote because he paints the white working experience inthis country as "privileged" even when it has its own complete set of worries and fears -- aset of worries and fears, mind you, that white people in the Nordic countries (which the liberals always reference) do not really have to contend with at all. In my opinion, most low class American whites would rather live in Norway, where white privilege does not exist because no black people are there to make it apparent, rather than living here...with "privilege" that really just means "guilt" and "terror".
