I get it now. You got kicked out of the courtroom because you don't understand clear and simple English.
Your butthurt is fierce. I get a huge kick out of bringing it forth.

...2019 is pretty much the Golden Age for minorities in America...
Tell that to innocent black men who continue to get harassed, arrested, shot dead by police for the "crime" of being black in the wrong place at the wrong time. Black girl commits some stupid prank licking ice cream and putting back in the freezer at Walmart and the police talk about 20 years in prison. Arianna Grande did something similar a few years back and police can't be bothered to investigate. Yes, there's some unfair affirmative action nowadays. But there was vastly more unfair system benefiting white males (at the expense of blacks, browns and females) up until the very recent past. On and on it goes. White males have double standards and blind spots even to this day.

Also, economic success is like that joke about two men running from a bear. "We can't outrun a bear," says one guy. "I don't need to outrun the bear, I just need to outrun you," replies the other. Even if there is a rigid quota system limiting white males in government and other large organizations, an individual white male can still succeed by beating the other white males, since it is absurd to suggest that zero white males are allowed in large organizations: just look around to see that this is not the case. And there are no quotas when you run your own business.

Cornfed's anger is mostly because he is low tier among white males, more than because white males as a whole are being systematically oppressed (which may or may not be true). Not sure about Ghost.

The thing is that whether you get one of the diminishing number of places is largely a matter of luck. There are not usually objective tests for job placements where they have to hire you if they pass those tests. The long term intent is to phase out all non-elite white men. At any stage of the process, there will be white men who haven’t yet been phased out… until there aren’t. Hence pointing to any one of them and saying that because he still has a good job everyone who has been phased out in the past must be a bad person is retarded. As an aside, there effectively are quotas for running businesses given that affirmative action applies to your supply chain, government contracts etc.

A man's problem could be solved if he moved to Poland, Hungary, Russia or sub Saharan Africa, or Asia. I can't see A.A. affecting him there.

Then there's still the issue of what he is going to do for a living.

Yes it's called a "meritocracy" and judging by results it seems to be a good thing. But just one thing - please tell us how anything in the white world has ever come at the expense of females.

Precisely. Unfortunately, people like that have a mental block that prevents them from introspective examination so they can improve themselves. It is far easier for the lazy and low-tier types to blame outside forces for their failures.

In @Cornfed's case, the train has already left the station in terms of time left, health, and window of best opportunity. Quite sad actually, but it is 100% self-imposed. But clearly it makes him feel better if he can blame blacks and Jews so perhaps that is the silver lining to the pathology.

Imagine believing that a country's system shouldn't be for serving its own people instead of imported parasites. Oh wait, you do. How does it feel to be that cucked? I guess it's easy as a boomer.
The ruling class is not and never was interested in importing parasites to USA/Europe. Some may have slipped in during the messy process of re-organizing society, but these parasites will be exterminated eventually. The goal was/is to make USA/Europe the center of a worldwide economic empire and continued leaders in technology and industrial production, which are the bases for military power, so as to continue to dominate the world and compete with China. Better to import the best and brightest Indians, Africans, South Americans, etc programmers and engineers and scientists, so that they develop technology in the USA/Europe, than force them to bring their native counties up to the level of USA/Europe, this diminishing USA/Europe power in relative terms. To make this plan work, imported non-white workers have to be given the same rights as whites, which effectively means throwing lower tier whites under the bus.

The plan is more or less working, though it isn't a straight line forwards, largely because the lower tier whites have resisted the plan all along. The straight line forwards would involve unrestricted immigration and zero welfare. The upper 10% worldwide in terms of economic value, heavily favoring technical and management skills, of all races would prosper under this plan, the bottom 90% would starve.

What the rulers have always feared is that native born whites would take advantage of the immense wealth inherited from past generations to retire early and enjoy life, like I did. I am the true parasite, a guy who took advantage of an existing wealthy society to make a quick fortune running a software company, then retired early and hasn't done a damn thing useful to society in over twenty years. Plus, I never married or had children, so no future programmers to take my place. If everyone did like me, the whole system would collapse in a single generation.

I'm on board with the ruling class plan because I want the USA/Europe to remain militarily strong versus China and the rest of Asia, which requires that they continue to be leaders in technology and industrial production, but I also don't want to do the hard work myself. I have no allegiance to skin color, any more than to eye color or hair color, so I don't consider myself being cucked because USA/Europe are becoming less white.

It's truly ironic that Ghost is spouting white nationalist talking points on a forum dedicated to promoting globalization and was at one point considering marrying and having children with a non-white (Filipina).

You're the one who always get triggered by me. Just look at this thread. You got triggered and responded to me when I didn't even quote/tag you. You're an ape with low impulse control just like your ghetto cousins.
Cornfed is at least understandable in terms of the negative life trajectory and the disappointment thereto. In your case, I just see someone lashing out in almost clinically observable fashion. Not sure what all that vein-bursting butthurt is about, but I have to admit it is quite funny to watch :lol:

Ever considered some form of professional counseling? You, in particular, might want to do so......

You just can't get your mind off me.

But when you're a loser, daddygov-teat-sucking black guy that can't get any p***y without p4p (OH, I'm sorry, "sugar daddying") I guess you need a hobby.
If that makes you feel better about yourself somehow, ok. Now about that counseling idea for you.......

You remind me of the need for a mental health thread so I am glad your emotional meltdown continues.
