Racial Tolerance or Just an Act?

[gandalftw]

Yes it does. :D

You speak about white imperialism like it's a bad thing. We have built great wonders and discovered distant land. We have fought, sacrificed and conquered in order to be where we are now. We built this world, boy.

 

So white imperialism WASN'T a bad thing? I had no idea I was talking to a Neo-Nazi.

"The short answer is yes—there is a clear, predictable and causal link between low intelligence and prejudice, including racism."

Um... no. Don't think so. However, there does appear to be a correlation between openly displaying racism or racist tendencies and intelligence, at least in the more affluent areas of the western world. I have only personal observation to back that up, but I'll stand by it. What I think you are really seeing is that the smarter a person is the better they will be at masking their true natures. That is where political correctness is really coming from. It's purpose is not to eliminate racism or make the world a better place for minorities or the poor or the disenfranchised, it's purpose is to protect us from ourselves. Because showing our character flaws to the world is not in our best interests. The more intelligent a person is the less obvious is their hypocrisy.

Racist wasn't enough? I'm a Nazi too now? That's a first.

Seeing as I'm never going to make you see things from a different perspective, and you're never going to convince me multiculturalism is good, we might as well end the debate here and now. It has become more shít-posting and name-calling anyway.

I think the point is that multiculturalism is what is, regardless of anyone's opinion about it. But the usual rise of fascism in countries starts with a scapegoating of immigrants, minorities and their cultures. History is unambiguous on that much.

From my experience, the rise of fascism is mainly caused by the negative actions of others. When day in day out, you read the newspaper about a young woman going home late at night only to be assaulted and gang-raped by a group of migrants, people tend to become angry. And then next week, you learn that the people who committed this crime didn't get sentenced because they come from a war-torn country, and we can't possibly know the horror they must have gone though.

 

Enough news articles like this, and you have a group of people very very angry on your hands. But instead of hearing them out, instead of listening to these people, the government and media brands them as racist and bigoted. These angry people then feel forgotten and tossed aside. It is around this time that fear begins to grip them. They then turn to more extreme political organizations because they feel they no longer have a choice. When despair takes hold, you will look anywhere and turn to anything offering a solution. You corner these people by making them think they have no other choice.

 

Imo, racism is caused mainly by fear. Legitimate fear.

I'm legitimately afraid of people who believe by invading and committing genocide on indigenous populations, white people (your words)"have built great wonders and discovered distant land... have fought, sacrificed and conquered in order to be where we are now... (and) built this world". Because THOSE are the type of people who have caused the deaths of MILLIONS under the watchful gaze of white nationalist megalomaniacs such as Christopher Columbus, Andrew Jackson and military commanders such as George A. Custer, Australian invaders such as Angus McMillan, and of course Hitler and the Third Reich just to name a few examples.

 

You believe racism is justified by your legitimate fear? I believe you are legitimately ignorant. Disgusting.

Well, I suppose we could just export everyone back to the countries their ancestors came from, and give this land back to the indians...... Ya think Europe/Africa etc could absorb 300 million and change immigrants? Or would we be 'natives', since our ancestors came from there??????

 

Yeah, I see that happening.......

 

Civilizations come and go. Wars, genocide, conquest, all these are part of human history, going all the way back to the first tribes. I really don't see that changing any time soon.

 

Custer isn't really a good example. He was an arrogant idiot, seriously underestimated his situation, and paid the price for that blunder. Sure, he killed a fair few indians, but, they wiped him, and damn near everyone in his command, out in relatively short order.

 

And yes, I LOT of truly evil things happened back then..... from both sides of the coin. But, that has been over 200 years ago, and I haven't seen america as a whole attempt genocide on anyone else of late. Please keep in mind, that a majority of americans did NOT want war in Iraq, or Afghanistan. Memories of Viet Nam were still fairly fresh. We knew what would happen, and our government went in anyway. It was stupid, it was the wrong thing to do, and it has cost us trillions of dollars, and thousands of lives. We started a domino affect in the region, and EVERYONE is worse off today, for what George did back in the early 2000's. If I could change it, I would. I can't. So, we move on from here.

If you're reading stories day in and day out about gang-raping migrants, I suggest you find actual news sources to read, instead of propagandist horseshit. Do you honestly believe this scapegoating process was any different in Nazi Germany?

I'm not trying to justify it, I'm trying to tell you why "fascism" and "racism" is on the rise throughout the world. I'm trying to tell you why Marine Le Pen was among the top contenders. I'm trying to tell you why Trump won. People are fed up.

Think of me what you will. I wouldn't consider myself a racist or a Nazi, I'm just a guy who cares about my nation, it's people and history. To a lot of people, this makes me a bigot, which I find depressing.

It's not always gang-rape, but every time it's a different story. Assault, attempted murder, murder, honor killings, attempted suicide bombings, vandalism, theft. It's gotten to the point where you don't get surprised if a woman is raped by a gang of migrants anymore. When the mainstream media reports these cases, in the rare instances they actually do, they censor it and purposefully withhold information so as to not "promote the racist powers". Because of this, people are forced to turn to alternative media for the whole truth.
