See the book, “How the Irish Became White”. Whiteness is a complex negotiation with amnesia.

So they lost themselves, then became addicts to violence, conquest and oppression. Now when victims of their crimes gain empowerment, they feel like they’re losing their supply!

Mhmm, I think the erasure of European cultural ties in exchange for American whiteness makes whiteness more valuable for those people.

as a white person, I dealt with feelings of existential dread for years, wondering what the point of all this was, not wanting to participate in this hell we have created, and the only thing that has

Hence why they love the term “leave it in the past” and “move on”

Yes. We have a severe lack of culture in our background. It's treated as if it's shameful. This emptyness breeds contempt for those with it. Culture creates health and wellness. Harder to dominate.

I think they unconsciously know. Make "America great again" could be a shallow recognition that they don't remember and the destruction they are causing now is the refusal to process that thought.

Honestly as a YT person, I can’t help but feel a deep, sad emptiness in my soul from the non existent cultural ties I wish I had. This truly has to be the reason why. You’re spot on, thank you

this is EXACTLY why we say "they hate us cause they ain't us"; it's on a spiritual level rather than pettiness that people perceive

As a white woman, i’ve been saying we have to no culture and that’s why we’re lost and appropriate vs appreciate - we don’t know our roots to appreciate. Loved this video - helped me realize even more
