In my opinion it is because when I think of the movement it makes me think of the kkk and other hate group terrorists. It seems like the white people that participate in white pride aren’t connected to their original culture and so the only thing they can connect with is being white. And all white pride people I’ve met are racist 100% from my observation. Asking this question for discussion. Also for anyone who’s wondering, the person in the picture is a white supremest and is displaying a hate symbol that originates from the white supremest neo nazi prison gang “Aryan Nations” The last example photos are ones of trump supporting terrorists raiding the capitol with confederate flags.

Is the white pride movement racist/problematic?

@hellionthesagereborn I can't stress it any more than I already have. BLM was not invented to “praise” their own race. It’s to stand up to racism and discrimination, specifically against black people, since of all the horrible things being done to them, and continue to be done.
White people, I’m also white by the way, have not experienced segregation, racism by a whole other race, harassment, death, or even worse maybe.
The whole point of white pride is to point out that their race is more important or just as important, meaning it deserves just as much attention as BLM. Wrong. White people are born with privilege, and yes, every race has their own privileges. So don’t tell me “well, black people have privileges too” cause the difference between them is huge.
When people think BLM is about “defining people’s skin Color” it’s absolute bullshit.
Like I’ve already stated, BLM and ALM or any race being discriminated and harassed is NOT to point out their skin Color.

But it wasn't? First off you would have to actually prove that these things are happening which of course you cannot. Statistically their are more black supermacists then white supremacists in the United states, blacks are 150% more likely to commit hate crimes compared to whites, in 2019 14 blacks where killed by police vs. 19 police officers being killed by blacks (statistically speaking), BLM has murdered people who refuse to comply with their wishes, has destroyed businesses that refuse to give them money, and the founders have openly stated they are a marxist group the founder of which just spent millions of dollars that BLM acquired through donations to buy herself three multimillion dollar houses (all of which reside in almost entirely white neighborhoods no less (clearly she doesn't see whites as a threat)). So again, you would have to prove that blacks are descriminated against which again, is not the case (in fact studies have shown that police are less likely to shoot a black suspect then a white (more whites are shot by police officers then blacks are) and even though they are statistically more likely to commit traffic violations and thus more likely to get pulled over, they are also more likely to be let off without a warning. We also have hiring quotas and anti discrimination laws that favor blacks over whites so again, we have arguments to say blacks are privileged beyond any other group but no argument to suggest discrimination).

As for your argument, so black pride is perfectly acceptable because black people do it, but a white person saying white pride is not acceptable because white people are racist? Your aware that this is in fact racism on your part right? I think pride in one's skin color is stupid, but if your going to claim that white pride is racism and means that they are trying to elevate themselves over another group, then you damn well better claim that when blacks do it because otherwise you are being racist. This idea that its not racism so long as the "right" race is doing it is insane.

As for BLM defnining people by skin color, lets spell this out, "Black" "Lives" "Matter". So yes, they are discriminating they are saying only black lives matter, that its their race and no one else and they are defining their actions purely based upon race hence why they protested a man being shot by the police. . . until they found out he was white and immediatley stopped protesting. That is discrimination by definition and racism by definition.

As for white privilege, okay, define it. What privilege, how much privilege, and what can white people do to get rid of it so you don't continue to discriminate against them because of their race? IF they cannot do anything about it why bring it up except as an attempt to guilt and blame them for something they have no control over? What privilege, tell me my privilege (even though you have never met me and don't know anything about me)?
