No one will defend this because if this actually occurred it's stupid.
That said the narrative behind this whole post is BS. It's a conservative narrative similar to the welfare queen where a specific example is exaggerated to disparage a political ideology as something it isn't.
The worst part about it is that, as a form of protest, white people not showing up really doesn't prove anything. We already know that some 70% of the country is white. We already know that white people control the vast majority of businesses, institutions and by extension of that and sheer numbers, occupy the most jobs. Certain areas of the country and certain industries may grind to a halt without minorities, but by and large, the country will keep moving on. Reverse that equation? The country grinds to a halt.
Everyone knows this, so there's nothing gained by whites not showing up.
Human progress isn't measured by industry. It's measured by the value you place on a life.
Just, be kind.
We don't allow race threads here. Locked.
