Maintaining white supremacy in the U.S.
Isn't this what the crack down on abortion and immigration is all about?

2. Yes. Targeting the poor and powerless is much easier than solutions.
The sad thing is to see so many alleged progressives buying into it.

5. Whites were a minority in Rhodesia.

I think it was 3% white, 97% black.

(If not those figures, very close.)

7. As they are world-wide.
I agree. If anything, this latest trend in abortion rights will ensure more non-white infants. So if that is the goal, they are stupid. But we knew that.

16. It depends on the goals.
The abortion issue might ensure more non-white infants, but large populations diffuse wealth. Whites will get the abortions they want, while non-whites will be penalized by having to support larger families and criminalized if they seek abortions. Good recipe for growing the permanent underclass.

It's not really about race (though the racist appeal is obvious) but it is about class.

18. Okay, I see your point
That makes sense. And remembering South Africa, we all know you don't need a majority to stay in power. At least for a while.

13. that's a big part of the anti-immigration movement
there also is reactionary economic fear among the working class.

I don't think it has that much to do with the anti-abortion movement. those people are religiously insane.

19. I think I read that 60% of those who have abortions in MS are black.
Wouldn't be surprised if figures are similar elsewhere. How does that fit your theory? So far I've heard nobody say that abortions will remain legal for blacks. Although of course, I wouldn't be totally surprised if that's what some repubs actually wanted.
