““... [Y]ou mainly hear from white supremacists, about the "glory" of the white race. They point to the innovations of white people and use that evidence of our "inherent greatness." So first of all, most of the white people who bring this shit up are NOT impressive people. It's not for the most part the scientists, and the engineers, and the artists, and the writers, and the film makers, and people who actually have skill sets who bring up this point. It's the shlubs, and the losers, who are spinning their fucking wheels in the mud, it's the people who have nothing to take pride in so they take pride in the accomplishments of everyone who happens to share their skin color. Pathetic.””
