JD Vance today "In the United States of America, you don't have to apologize for being white anymore."

At that turning point klan rally

"In the United States of America," Vance said, "you don't have to apologize for being white anymore."


That comment drew widespread criticism for its blatant racism.


"I don’t think the mainstream news can possibly report on just how vile & dangerous this JD Vance diatribe is," said journalist Jennifer Schulze. "Some will gloss over the extremism, others will both sides it. So people need to watch the actual video to see/hear for themselves the white nationalist venom spewing from this monster."



Vance, according to journalist Aaron Rupar, drew the biggest applause of his speech when he claimed "by the grace of God we always will be a Christian nation."

of the United States, much less the father of two biracial children.

This is completely unacceptable and fucked up.

We deserve so much better than that piece of shit and his boss.

the part wherein the audience also heard ", who simply thinks n******s and sp**s and k**es and f**s need to get the fuck out or at least shut the fuck up cause Whites really ARE superior!" at the end of his sentence.

Not to mention a cheat or a bully.
If you're a Mediocre jerk who "made it on Nepotism or patronage", beating out people who were more qualified and harder working than you were, you should still apologize.
Never had to apologize for being white. I'm not a pissy jerk who has to be the top dawg all the time.

I have felt I needed to apologize for the system that favored Whites when I stepped up to speak for another person of a different race who was more qualified, but not being heard or paid attention to.
