i suppose she must have written it using her White invented typewriter, or her white invented biro pen and pad,or her White invented computer and monitor...
Self loathing liberals are so SAD!

Is she living in Rwanda?
With Aids, Malaria, mass murder, corruption, rape?
Or, heaven forbid, a white country?

Sontag is Jewish. Today Jews make up 2% of America but around half of American billionaires. Who are the real troublemakers here? The white European or the Jew? Maybe the Jew is behind the scenes pulling the strings attached to white Europeans

because it was mostly true?( There are many instances of non-white populations eradicating indigenous populations when they emigrated into their territory)
And the quote is much longer than the snippit you posted:
the white race is the cancer of human history. It is the white race and it alone - its ideologies and inventions - which eradicates autonomous civilizations wherever it spreads, which has upset the ecological balance of the planet, which now threatens the very existence of life itself (Susan Sontag)
The Whites are the most damaging race ever.......not BECAUSE they are white, but because they have managed to become the most powerful... I don't doubt that had the blacks, the Natives or the Asians acheived the hegemonic status the whites did, they would have been just as brutal....
in any case, it's Free Speech, the same thing you are exercising now.

I am WHITE and my dearest friend was BLACK, thank god, she and her family were not like Susan Sontag who ever she is!
If only every one celebrated the difference of race and culture and used and accepted the difference, just how wonderfully our lives be enriched - I know mine was until she passed away a few months ago.

*sighs* Some people really have a nerve. After all the Caucation run United Nations did to save the Jews from Hitler. After all the men who died to save her race's sorry behind.
Yes, white people were the first race of people in modern times to live in luxery. But, look at how the natives live! If you want to talk about toxic and lazy: most of them live on reserves all thier lives, use drugs and alchohol daily and live off of Welfare!
I don't know how old that quote is but I know that most white people of today are hardworking and honest. Generally they don't get as many breaks with the government and do their best to be as fair as possible to all the other races.
I feel that other races are somewhat bitter that Caucasians thought of it first. That they won the wars. They had the technology to do what they did. Hitler was a bad man. But, saying that because of what he did white people are going to destroy the earth is like saying that because Micheal Jackson is a pedofile all black people are pedofiles. It's just uneducated and untrue.

Yes, that statement is highly racist and very ignorant, however, it was her right to say it. One must also consider that it may have been taken out of context. Sometimes a writer will make a statement like that to jolt people out of their safety zones and make them think, even if anger is the first emotion they feel when reading it. (I know anger was the first thing I felt when reading it.)
Even if that's how she truly felt, I still think she had a right to say it, no matter how I may disagree with her and her agenda. The right to speak one's mind is one of the most sacred rights a person can have. To take it away from anyone is to deprive that person of a voice.

The white europeans 'conquer' america, and in doing so they killed over 100 million naturals of this continent; but Karma that it's the perfect regulator, give the europeans the two wars that killed 100 million people. is that something that we all have to learn, i hope so.

Freedom of speech. A hate "crime" involves assault. Unfortunately, people are allowed to say such hateful things, and being a racist isn't an actual crime.

In away its true, look at all the suffering the white man has put other races through how they believed themselves to be superior to all other races. They have spread there cancer inventing evil, starting wars and oppressing and enslaving blacks. Though so have the Egyptians and numerous other races before the caucasian race did.
"i suppose she must have written it using her White invented typewriter, or her white invented biro pen and pad,or her White invented computer and monitor..."
More along the lines of the atom bomb, nuclear warfare, etc is the evil i speak of.
