Where will it stop?

Down here on Hilton Head Island SC many of our gated communities are referred to or formally named plantations. Judging by this letter to the editor of our local paper use of the word plantation reminds people of slavery and should not be used. I think I'll write a letter to the editor demanding all Mercedes automobiles be removed from public roads because it reminds me of genocide! http://www.islandpacket.com/2015/07/...ould.html?rh=1

It won't stop until the only things left in American culture are "clean"...you know, things like twerking, porn, free sex, diversity at the expense of productivity, rap music that glorifies violence and objectivities women (which is ironic because these same artists support gun control and the "women's rights" movement...) and countless other things that are acceptable because they were not pioneered by heterosexual white males.

Those that are seeking "social justice" and "political correctness" in all things are the current crop of useful idiots who will eventually be crushed under the boot heal of their own movement.

“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue, street and building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.” - George Orwell, from 1984

It's not going to stop until we hit the 'Reset Button".
The very idea that you are guilty because you are white is no less repugnant than the idea that you are guilty because you are_____ (fill in the blank).
The idea that every white guy made it to success on the backs of his black and brown brothers is a falsehood that many would like you to believe.
I'm sure my Scots/Irish forefathers were standing on the docks waiting for some black folks to unload their baggage so that they could be welcomed in to American society in style and fashion.
I'm reminded of a story my Grandmother used to tell about her own Mother coming to America and on the journey seeing a young woman drop her new born baby over the side of the boat as She had no other means to feed or care for her.
Yeah, it's been nothing but easy for white folks. Now lets rewrite some more of our history.

But hey, if you burn a gay pride flag, your arson charge goes to aggravated because it is a hate ( course running around a lesbian couples yard waving didn't help).

I grasp the preference toward doom and gloom, and impending EOTWAKI on this forum, but I'm more inclined to see it as another cultural bump in the road. These kinds of pendulum swings and dire predictions have been rife throughout our history generation to generation. They go on and on, each one accompanied by deep despair for the future of our country. I do note that the internet certainly does facilitate doom-saying.

I do practice cultural situational-awareness...I just don't share the level of pessimism.

I was thinking this same thing.

I see a cultural shift

What does it mean to be white in America? A new MTV documentary seeks to answer that question — and others — when it tackles the controversial issue of "white privilege."

Joe Antonio Vargas, a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist from the Philippines who is an illegal immigrant to the U.S., hosts the new documentary.

You can call it gloom and doom if you like, but the water in this pan is getting warmer froggy.

The reality to me is that the country is on a path to which the only recourse will be to, as Averageman put it, hit the "Reset Button", which equates to a revolution. Though these "cultural bumps" are temporary by themselves. Their cumulative effect has been an acceleration of the inevitable "Train Wreck". There's too many of "Them" and too few of "Us". The internet, MSM, SM, elected officials, etc. have decided to pander to the weak/them and ignore the strong/us. Hopefully I'll be dead and cremated when the official name of this once great nation is changed from USA to the United Socialist States of America. It's inevitable as history has shown us the future. You younger ones had better be prepared for an armed revolution as our forefathers had done.
