“White Lives Matter” events planned for today will probably fizzle. Rumor has it that one of such rally in North Caolina is already cancelled. Are white conservatives now cancel-culturing themselves?
Police forces across the country are reportedly preparing for white supremacist rallies planned for this weekend.
White supremacist groups are organizing the rallies over encrypted messaging app Telegram, Newsweek first reported. There are also public event pages on Facebook suggesting there will be several rallies on Sunday, April 11.
“Patriots all over this nation are peacefully marching to raise awareness for whites being victims of massive interracial crime and also persecution by the government,” one Facebook event page reads.
The event description adds, “This is happening in every majority white nation on earth.” Who knew?
But are those majority white nations passing laws to inhibit white people from voting? Are white people routinely dying at the hands of police for minor or non-offenses? Are they legislating gender conformity?
White Reoublican legislators are doing that here in North Carolina:
The legislation follows a nationwide trend of GOP-controlled state legislatures looking to limit treatments for transgender adolescents. Unlike other states, however, North Carolina would classify adults between the ages of 18 and 21 as minors under the “Youth Health Protection Act.”
Medical professionals who facilitate a transgender person’s desire to present themselves or appear in a way that is inconsistent with their biological sex could have their license revoked and face civil fines of up to $1,000 per occurrence. The measure bars doctors from providing gender confirming hormone treatment, puberty blockers or surgery.
What’s more:
Senate Bill 514 would also compel state employees to immediately notify parents in writing if their child displays “gender nonconformity” or expresses a desire to be treated in a way that is incompatible with the gender they were assigned at birth. LGBTQ advocates fear the bill would out people under 21 who tell state workers that they may be transgender.
“Transgender youth have the best chance to thrive when they are supported and affirmed, not singled out and denied critical care that is backed by virtually every leading health authority,” said a statement from the Rev. Jasmine Beach-Ferrara, executive director of the Campaign for Southern Equality, adding that “a person’s gender identity shouldn’t limit their ability to access health care or be treated with dignity and respect.”
Beach-Ferrara, a member of the Buncombe County Commission (Asheville), has announced plans to run for Congress in 2022 against NC-11 Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R).
Meanwhile, “oppressed” white people will rally today to protest their oppression and do some male bonding.
I’m still waiting for my first “driving while white” traffic stop. I can proudly wear it on my sleeve for decades as proof of government persecution.
