| My comment was on the line "There are too many white people in the audience tonight." This line or a variation of it has become a tiresome cliche. It is not a racist attach, but rather a lame attempt at humor. My own lame attempt at humor was to meant to show how ridiculous the many claims we see here that something is a politically incorrect on white people or religion or men. And if this unnamed performance was an attack on white people--so what? White people are doing just fine. We do not need anyone to protect us against the drag queens of off-Broadway. |

That's where I completely and passionately disagree with you. I think there is great danger when any group attacks another group based on race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, or whatever, even if the group being attacked is perceived as privileged. Look what happened to the Jews in Germany -- of course that's not the same situation as what we're discussing here, but not entirely dissimilar, either. |

| Straight white Christian men have been the dominant global power for the past 500 years. Jews in Europe have been continually persecuted for the past 500 years. How are these two situations not dissimilar? | |
