Why white people think they're the real victims of racism
http://theweek.com/articles/732849/why-white-people-think-theyre-real-victims-racism
The idea of any advancement for minorities coming at the expense of whites gets constantly reinforced, nowhere more than on Fox News, the most important conservative media outlet, where white identity politics is always on the schedule.
Its foremost purveyor was Bill O'Reilly, who recently left the channel after it was revealed that he had settled lawsuits with a series of women claiming he had sexually harassed them. In his many years as the highest rated host on cable news, O'Reilly not only assembled a long record of racist statements, but told his viewers over and over again that whites and Christians were victimized by a left that wielded awesome power to discriminate against them. Or as he put it once, "If you're a Christian or a white man in the U.S.A., it's open season on you."
He had plenty of company in other conservative media, particularly in the Obama years. Hosts like Rush Limbaugh would tell their listeners, "Obama's entire economic program is reparations" — in other words, stealing from virtuous whites to bestow benefits on undeserving blacks. The campaign against white America would be unrelenting, from the most powerful person in the country. "This president, I think, has exposed himself as a guy, over and over and over again, who has a deep-seated hatred for white people," said Glenn Beck. And he was coming for you.
Any other minority who ascended to a position of power was likely to be described by conservatives as a racist who would use that position to victimize innocent whites. You might remember that when Obama nominated Sonia Sotomayor to the Supreme Court, conservatives charged not only that she was an unqualified affirmative action hire (of course), but that she was anti-white. "A white man racist nominee would be forced to withdraw. Latina woman racist should also withdraw," said Newt Gingrich.
After eight years of hearing those messages, it isn't surprising that many whites felt that they were oppressed and held back, particularly if the circumstances of their own lives were not what they would have liked. Then along came Donald Trump, who told them that they didn't even have to be shy about it anymore. They could proudly proclaim all those resentments — against racial minorities, against immigrants, against women — and rally behind the most unabashedly bigoted and vulgar candidate anyone had ever seen.
And when Trump runs for re-election in three years, don't be surprised if his campaign is intensely racialized, as he realizes that getting all those white voters angry and riled up is his only path to victory. It'll sound awfully familiar.

Изумительный образчик демагогии.

как уже объяснялось, АА, во всяком случае при приёмы в вузы, работает против азиатов, а не против белых
с АА при приёме на работу я не знаком, но подозреваю, что если кто-то считает, что его карьера не сложилась из-за него, у него есть bigger problems

Не объяснялось, а утверждалось.

Совершенно безосновательно.

Но мне не вполне понятен аргумент.
Что первый, что второй.
Они, типа, абсолютно, совершенно иррелевантны.
Впрочем, чего еще ожидать от айкюшника.
Каким именно образом всё это отменяет существующую дискриминацию ?

обычной неспособностью ответить на вопрос. До того, как пуститься в
разъяснения.
