Prussion Blue
Anybody seen the White Power Pop Princesses called Prussian Blue? Google up the picture and you get two cute fourteen year old, blonde, blue eyed smiling teeny boppers wearing smiley-face Hitler T-shirts. These homeschooled youngsters may have slept through the lesson on racial tolerance but they were wide awake for the one on eugenics. Their grandad was a rancher who used the swatztika as his cattle brand and their classic "stage mom" April parades the girls around to sing at racist gatherings. Little sis's name is Dresden. This wholesome family just moved to Montana and is booking for Holiday, oops, Christmas gatherings.If you want to meet some more real scary* people check out the Montana Human Rights Network website at mhrn.org. (*not HRN, the racists and their supporters in our legislature)
I doubt they would know what a Palestinian was but they sure don't like Jews. Speaking of which, if Olmert is serious about negotiating Palestinian prisoners for Israeli Corporal Gilad Shalif, I hope he is alive. The fate of the planet could be resting on this. Oh Troutsky, cmon, the PLANET? Im serious, it'll be a tragedy Shakespear himself could not have imagined if something happened to that one man. Discussion ends ,truce ends, poop hits fan.
Saw Al Gores movie last night then had a confused ,disjointed conversation about "changing the world" with some young men who were torn between social justice and getting some more beer and finding some chicks. Guess which won out.

I have seen those girls before. Raising them like that is a form of child abuse I believe.
See My post about the two cuties.
renegade scooped me again! But they are MY neighbors!

Changing the world can be a tough thing to do. Finding female companions is much easier, though, surprise of surprises, I've yet to find myself a libertarian Catholic lady. =) I've been more successful finding the beer.
As to your post, I really can't claim to understand anti-semitism. Racism makes a certain amount of sense in that humans don't like differences and many races show palpable visible differences. This doesn't make it right, of course, but if it's irrational to react negatively to those that are different from one, it's fairly typical of humans. Silly humans.
It is scary irrational, wiser,with psychological,mythological roots beyond my limited understanding. They are damaged beings for whom it is a struggle to feel compassion. Love life advice: moderate your views on feminism,you don't have to support choice but support wage equality.Women will be forming a que.
Perhaps the young lads you spoke with are Billy Bragg fans:
"I don't want to change the world
I'm not looking for a new England
I'm just looking for another girl."
As for Prussian Blue, they got a bunch of national media attention a while ago. Very creepy indeed. I'm sorry to hear they've moved to the Big Sky.

You drive a hard-bargain. =) Would I be conceived as bigoted if I objected on wage controls of any kind due to my lack of faith in the ability of the government to regulate the market, even supposing it should be allowed to do so?
wiser, a woman waiting for the "free" market to magically arrive while she makes 70 cents to a mans dollar is a woman who is tired of waiting.For dating purposes, you get the same reaction I would get if I told them to wait for the end of the wage system altogether! Fortunately Im married, but i still get The Look.
I'm with Grae on this one, those girls are being abused.
As for racism, I heard a Native American Studies professor recently say: "There is no such thing as race, only racism." In the 1960s, Carlos Fuentes worked hard to encourage fellow Latin American authors to end their essentialist attitudes in their writing. He encouraged instead a "new language" for a "new world," that broadens identities thus subverting hegemony. Hegemony as a result of deterministic and essentialistic language. So in the case of "race and racism" I suggest we refuse them both and talk only of human beings.
P.S. Once I was filling out an application which asked a curious question regarding my identity. Instead of asking me to simply mark my race, it was more open-ended as it asked me to mark the racial group with which I most closely identified. At the time I was feeling very latino, so well I put down "Latino."

Sometimes, in Puckish moments, I've been tempted to label myself "Hispanic", based on the fact that, part of my father's family have roots in Spain many, many generations ago (i.e. until they were kicked out during the Inquisition).
I'm really sick of hearing about these kids. Their music is crap, their lyrics are crap, the pitiful attempts at marketing that their isolated white supremacist subculture tries to pull for them are crap, and they're even getting less cute by the day. Yet everyone talks about them like their brand is so infectious that they'll inevitably become the next big craze in every middle and high school in the country. Now, I know America's extremely racist, but still, give our teens a little credit...
Troutsky,
I don't believe in that seventy cents to a dollar crap, and I'm a bit surprised to hear you spout it.
Given that Capitalists are in things for the money, and assuming that your presumption is true, there wouldn't be a single unemployed woman in this country.
Of course, these surveys don't compare apples to apples, because that would destroy their results. The disparate numbers of men in engineering and other hard sciences tend to scew results favorably in men's direction, but only if one doesn't compare apples to apples, or engineers to engineers as the case may be.
Also, my wife will not work. This may be unreasonable, but rest assured, I am marginally fantastic at living the single life.
