We might have fewer kids, but seeing as we vaccinate, educate, nourish and nurture them, ours are stronger, fitter, smarter, and far more likely to survive beyond the ages of 5 or 15. We're raising quality over quantity, which always lasts longer and performs better.

They are teaching young Americans to fear their government. If this goes on long enough it will neutralize their desire to participate in politics, elections or any democracy and eventually they will accept it as their way of life.

Nah, just minimizing the role of white Americans and amplifying the role that minorities played in destroying America. It's no big deal, just one of the primary tactics that was used so effectively to divide and conquer America in order to turn it into a fascist nation. So sad.

White America was too afraid to ask if they had sufficient merit to retain power. So 77 million Americans decided no one else should have any say in the matter. It will take another civil war to reverse that decision.
