Oh my.
Somebody else has got the EFerrari syndrome, although the ethnic derivation is different.

Roll Call!
I have always wondered exactly how many black posters there are on DU. In the AA forum on DU2, you had to have a donor star in order to post so starting a Roll Call there would have never made much sense.
But now, anyone can post here and we'll likely get a more representative number. How many of us are there on this web site?
Brothers and sisters, sign the Soul Scroll!! (or Scroll of Soul, whichever folks like better)

30. I can't believe it. We are so far up to TWELVE black DUers
I honestly didn't think there were that many of us here.
And I know of at least four or five others that haven't signed yet.

100. 32 as of this post! That's about 1000 too few but about 20 more than I expected.
More like.....maybe 25 in real life.
But whatever.

Speaking of, of course, the reactionary KoKo primitive, who like the brain-damaged primitive can't cope with change.

Democraticunderground.com, overwhelmingly white, or just predominantly white?

When my fellow alum Skins took a poll of the primitives about, oh, maybe five years ago, 98.7% or 97.8%, or something like that, admitted to being of European derivation.
You be the judge of whether that's "predominantly" or "overwhelmingly."
Also, more than half the primitives are over the age of 50 years, a whole big chunk of that over 55 years (i.e., the baby-boomers). What sounds like a pissy teenaged-girl is usually an older woman circa 60.
Skins has yet to conduct a survey of the income of primitives, but I suspect about one-third are what one might call "rich" (income of $75,000+ per year), and a little over one-half on one or the other of various governmental gravy-trains. Which means that apparently about one-sixth are in the middle. (This is based upon anecdotal evidence only, but it's evidence that's been observed over a long period of time, ten years.)

White pretending to want to be Black. :stoner:

Doesn't matter...they're all in a black mood and have black hearts.
That is not a refference to race...but to their character.

Certainly the case for a certain part of that '32' number.

Me! Me! Me! I was at a reception the other night where a black guy was bringing around the sushi platter! And I spoke to him!

I'm black, in protest of the current administration. Let no one question my blackness unless first questioning Fat Al's, Jesse High's and owebuma's. Not his white half, to be sure.

Yeah but they are 100% red or red-green but not much of a difference there.

I think Rush called it "watermelon" in one of his books.

I am after all these years trying to understand what the White Guilt Vote means. I am sure the meaning has changed in the last 30 years from what ever the hell it originally meant.
I am still trying to figure out if the European Spanish are considered White, the Greeks and the Russian Jews, they look white to me. With the Dutch influence in Indonesia, many look French and the French influence in Asia brings in the now 3/4 white 1/4 Asian-------Very confusing the issue of race as we mongrels have moved about the world.
South Africans that are descendants of the Boar Wars visit or move here with the blue eyed blond looks, their nationality is African, their race is White. Invite a new comer to meet a new friend from Africa and people assume they are black.
Bunch of malarkey this race thing, a cultural thing I guess, only time I saw racial or religious racism was at a wedding when some old biddy moseyed up to me to whisper the dreaded truth. The groom, a Doctor was Jewish.
Hard line old time folk just love to see white mothers with other race children they adopted, but if the mother had given birth to this child herself, OH-MY-GOD, the poor kids, growing up in a Bi- racial family. Now that Obama came along the old farts have quieted down, to the point they vote for him. Had Obama grown up next door with a White mother, these same people would not have voted for him for town dog catcher. Unless he became successful.
Democrats of my era equate money to worth, even a Polish Gangster received respect if they were wealthy enough.
Just another oddity in life I do not understand, has to be some reason for people to be this way.
The more I learn abut human nature the more I value my Dog.

Very simple to explain white guilt. The libs use racism which is nearly non existent today to beat conservatives over the head with to gain concessions like minority hiring, affirmative action etc. Libs gin up guilt saying we owe it to blacks to repay for slavery, and other past discrimination. Then, every time a black gets ready to break another glass ceiling the uproar and guilt ginning goes into high overdrive and overtime. Whites were fomented to vote for owebuma to assuage their ersatz guilt. Simple as that.
