Mulatto the new threat to blacks?

I was surfing the web, and came across a racist white supremacist website called VDare. In an article they talked about some new "Mulatto Elite"...curious, i surfed more about the whole subject in the content of that post. And found a known racist, Steve Sailer, who has a blog at Blogger, he pretty much talked about some new "mulatto elite" too. In the comments, there was a comment that stood out to me.

The comment contained a diatribe of how mulattoes benefit more than blacks from AA, that as long as they have the choice to say they are black, they can have the benefits. The commenter then said that mulattoes want nothing to do with "black trash" and simply want the benefits of being part black, but also separating themselves from it. Someone followed up that comment by saying how mulattoes are a greater threat to blacks than white people.

The white user said that mulattoes would not be as kind.

It made me think for a little bit. To some people, they hate mulattoes more than blacks, because mulattoes are the product of "race traitors". To others, mulattoes are not as bad, because their being half white "saves them".

But the concept that mulattoes do take advantage of their black side is true. Many of us do take advantage of the benefits that come with being half black, such as AA (which really one does not choose if they will use in the first place, its the boss that chooses), college scholarships, and other things.

Mulattoes have helped carry the black race, for hundreds of years. With people as long ago as Booker T Washington and Frederick Douglass, and as recent as celebrities and politicians.

In another post, I stated, that one dropping benefits the black race, it makes the race look bigger than it may be, while also, increasing the amount of achievements made.

But one must ask, will one dropping at some point make things worse for blacks?

Some one drop mulattoes to "keep them in their place", mainly because who wants yet another racial group possibly being treated better than their own group?

But mulatto fight is starting to pick up, it may be in its beginning stage, but for how long? Mulattoes are fighting to end ODR, to get their own race, and to reverse hundreds of years of ODR and preconcieved notions. Naturally it will take a long time, since blacks are still fighting for their rights.

But is this supremacist commenter somewhat correct?

Will biracial people be worse than whites? They say if latin/hispanic people take over America, they will be much more heartless and violent towards blacks than any white person ever was. I can somewhat imagine that, given what goes on in California, and other places.

But many blacks often accuse biracials of hating their black side. Of all the biracials I knew in high school, only few associated mostly with blacks. Only one or two associated with an even amount of both blacks and whites (in seperate groups usually), and the rest (including me) associated mostly with whites.

Do blacks mispercieve being raised by your white side of the family as hating your black side? No doubt, some biracials (even myself), have been deprived of some things because of our lack of having a black side in our life...

I hate the fact that my father proves the stereotype about black men to be true, and it can be hard trying to defend the black race and say "there are good black men out there" (I haven't dated a black guy yet, but naturally there are good black men out there), knowing full well my dad was apart of the still growing trend of men leaving pregnant women. I almost want to stop defending and just say that whether or not its a majority problem of men in the black race doing it, it still needs to be addressed.

Is being more tough about how the black race should be, since I am biracial, make blacks angry? Yes it does, they often feel they must "remind" me that I am black, and I know I am, but that does not address the problem.

Some biracials intentionally want nothing to do with blacks, some do not necessarily relate well with many blacks. And some are rejected by blacks because they hold tough criticisms about the black race.

Maybe mulattoes are considered the "new threat" to blacks because, mulattoes hold lots of achievements in the black race, and if they become their own race, where does that leave blacks? Maybe mulattoes will be more tough towards the black race, because they are black, but also their white side propels them to see the black race slightly different than born black people.

Maybe they are just a threat to the current standard of living amongst black people. Meaning, they are threating the current way of life...and the current way of life amongst blacks (and even mulattoes) is grim and bleek, so is it really such a bad thing?

Of course, then there is the theory that the mulattoes that could be a threat most to blacks are the ones that resent being half black because they are punished for the actions of bad blacks. And if mulattoes ever get a higher standard in society and the ODR abolished, this could potentionally make things harder and worse for blacks...for resentful mulattoes may come back with a vengenance...but once again, is it necessarily the race they hate, or the stigmas?

In the end, mulattoes could become the new threat to blacks, although I think it is highly unlikely that will happen.
