Boredom definitely serves an important purpose. Try sitting in a room with no internet/television/entertainment for a couple hours. When you emerge, you will have a higher appreciation for things. Depriving oneself reconnects you with appreciation. It also allows you to venture out of your comfort zones. Everytime I evacuate for a hurricane, I'm usually thrown way out of my comfort zones. And it forces me to do the things I've been putting off.
There's an extremely small percentage of white nationalist (and black nationalist) people who think in these terms. Do what you will, but I don't think articles like this are promoting anything positive. People who are racially-toxic are determined to be so, and these articles will not sway them. They do not visit centrist/rational places on the internet.
