Blue Star posted:Also, when I say that whites stole all of their culture, I'm talking about ALL OF IT, not just white American culture. This goes back centuries. The Greeks and Romans stole poo poo from the Egyptians. Philosophy, architecture, technology, everything. All through history. The Renaissance was started by stealing poo poo from Muslims. All those Italian paintings that everyone likes? Stolen. All that music? Stolen. Meanwhile the Egyptian hive mind sprung from its earthen womb fully formed.

But at least we can agree that Italian immigrants who came to America in 1910 are complicit in Atlantic slave trade.

gobbagool posted:OK edgelord, so we can all make sure we're playing the game by your ruleset, let's you start with naming working institutions from *any* culture that work, because I have a feeling your input to others' suggestions will be simply to tersely dismiss whatever they say. So, Nevvy, let's have it, do you believe that there are any institutions in any culture that work? I'm sure many warlords would say patrimonialism and clientelism work out great for them.

Elias_Maluco posted:This raises an interesting question: is latin america part of the "white culture"? Being that it was colonized by white people and, to this day, in most places the government and institutions are mostly ruled by white people They are the perfect mix of white and "ethnic", allowing them to be used both to bash the evil white people and praise the brown people depending on context. icantfindaname posted:

Dzhay posted:You probably can talk about "the culture of typical white Americans" and make some meaningful statements, but please stop pretending it would have anything to do with, say, Lithuanians. What does a hot dog vendor from Reform, Alabama have in common with a Silicon Valley engineer? Is he closer to the engineer than to a black guy from the same town?

Brainiac Five posted:There's only one nation ready to defend the world against the horror of people bashing the white race, and that's Hungary. My point has been that "white people" like to effectively strip the various South American people of agency by framing them rhetorically in ways that are convenient to their ad-hoc feel-good narratives, no matter what the reality may be, thus poisoning the well for them in the wider discourse. Unfortunately you are apparently retarded and insist on some non-sequitur conclusion.

Who What Now posted:So were you lying when you said this: In a thread obsessed about identity, people seem to be quite happy to ignore that identities have their own semantic universes attached to them. Isn't is quite obvious that when a white guy is talking about how pride based on ethnicity is a bad concept, his meaning is quite different from the similar language used when talking about black pride? The two have different experiences and different frames of reference, so pretending that just because they use the same words, they are conveying the same meaning, means that you are either profoundly ignorant, or arguing in bad faith.

Jerry Cotton posted:This doesn't really hold water. why are you literally saying that white pride and black pride are equivalent i meaning? A white person talking about pride is inherently going to project it downwards, identifying himself against the lower strata of society as he sees them - the black person is going to project her pride upwards, rejecting the conventional hierarchy. Yet the basic verbal instruments used by them are the same. steinrokkan fucked around with this message at 23:11 on Jul 30, 2016 |

doverhog posted:Are you trying to attack people for using the wrong words, according to you, or to understand what they actually mean when they say something? All I'm saying is that when somebody says "huh, white pride is a bad thing, ethnic pride has no place in modern society", it makes no sense to go and answer with "So you hate black pride and black people???"

Isn't racial pride in this context just a culturally conditioned stand-in for other concepts, I'm pretty sure if black pride stood for preventing people from participating in elections, it wouldn't be seen as a very positive force. There's no inherent value to be had, it's all about relations to fundamental sociological variables.

That would just lead to new unforeseen grievances arising. The best we can do is allow all people to be heard and present their social critique.

an skeleton posted:Nope but people can be taught to realize their time is valuable and perhaps better used advancing some ideas or concepts over others. And I like to think as long as there are people like me saying "uhhh hey maybe racial pride as a tool for societal advancement is a bit outdated, lets try something else" maybe more people will shift their ideas into more productive directions. Well, framing it as a matter of time efficiency seems to be extremely ineffective in winning over hearts and minds. There are much better ways to frame it.
