Nobody is saying we must flood African countries with mass immigration to make them more multicultural. Nobody is saying we must flood Asian countries with mass immigration to make them more multicultural. Nobody is saying we must flood Muslim countries with mass immigration to make them more multicultural.

Multiculturalism and mass immigration into White countries and ONLY White countries is GENOCIDE.

Anti racism is a code word for anti White.

@godkingRoss Nature always wins though. keep that in mind. Anti racists will lose.

The environment has always been racist, by which I mean nature.

Nature made us live separate, nature is a racist bigoted xenophobic bitch.

No wonder we are constantly destroying nature.

My video is a good example of environmental racism. I would even call it environmental terrorism. Some public housing constructed in the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s were constructed on toxic waste dumps and landfills. The death rates in these neighborhoods defy explanation. Today, much of that public housing is being destroyed under HUD HOPE VI funds by evading environmental requirements. What they are not telling America is that the housing is mostly toxic.

@mout12 I'm talking about parents don't raise their parents to work harder because their parent didn't teach them that. They need a role model to teach them that. It's not that easy. Especially if you can't afford college or know about college scholarships or so poor you don't even have the internet to learn and sometimes when you leave in a hood like that teachers don't even care. That's why most schools have programs if they could afford it.

@a999op If you're born poor? Work harder than the lazy bums on your street and move away. If you wait around for success to come to you, it'll most likely never happen.

@jlarpi What if you're born poor? Try researching things before you become judgemental.

[benympls]

@jlarpi Yes one should work hard to get what they out of life but if your BORN poor and theirs pollutants in your air/water you could be brain damaged before you even are old enough to "pull yourself up from your boot straps." Its not environmental racism but environmental classim and before you speak on this you should REALLY learn about the sickness that corporate waste produces.

[RebrnEmpwrd]

Its because racism is systemic, its set up so that no one has to take the blame.

[RebrnEmpwrd]

Not everyone has the same privilege to say that as you do! Your ignoring the long history of oppression and socialization that says everyone's on an even playing field! history influences today!
