Racial Fatigue?

[PoppingTom]

I guess they preferred eating each other.

You usually guess very racist. Again: they still exist, there are hundreds of documentations about them.

Because they never had to develop civilization they never evolved the ability to behave in a civilized manner. That is why they need to be subdued with a harsh criminal justice system.

Never watched "The Gods must be crazy" ?

And btw: civilization is a religion. The emancipation of the human kind from the nature. Europeans or most other civilizations had to do it. Africans not that much.

"Asia" started out as one of several provinces in what is now Turkey. It makes no sense for Asia to be thought of as a single continent. It is too large and diverse. It makes no sense for Asians to be thought of as a single race.

What I means by "Orientals" are Mongoloid people whose civilizations have been shaped by China. They have an average IQ of 106. They are going to dominate the world. Whites are in decline.

Well in addition to being racist you don't know what a continent is. You're very sketchy on your understand what what race is, which is cool since it's an entirely made up social construct but. . .still.

Whatever we are choosing to call the eastern bloc of Asia is unlikely to dominate the world but even if they do end up in some sort of power seat we'll have OWG before we need worry about that and more to the point maybe it's just their turn.

Negroes who were brought to the United States as slaves were introduced to a civilization vastly superior than anything they have been able to create on their own. That is why their descendents are much better off than Negroes still in Africa.

Not really vastly superior, better at the moment I'll grant you. The recent black in the US are better off than blacks in Africa is again a matter of lack of opportunity, nothing more, nothing less.

Because they never had to.

Quite the opposite, they had quite the civilizations back in the day, most of them fell apart and never really recovered from European Colonization and then utter abandonment however. But again the Sahara is a bitch and a half and by the time getting around it wasn't a huge issue nobody outside really gave a shit anymore.

I guess they preferred eating each other.

Nobody preferred eating each other, they did develop civilization, your wanting to claim Egypt isn't Africa non-withstanding.

Ultimately the only thing a harsh criminal justice system has accomplished is making the blacks in the US more impoverished, more desperate and more likely to commit crimes. So even if your basic idea of white superiority was correct your method for getting blacks in line is a proven and abysmal failure. I mean unless your goal was to tear apart families and turn America into the #1 prison country of all time. If those were your goals and not a smoother running society you simply failed and it's time to let your betters have a shot.

I don't think that Trouve is able to accept a civilization that isn't as developed as the most advanced. Or simply different.

 

[Sean Renaud]

Yes it does, because with continents were talking "geography" not race or culture.

Egg-fucking-xactly. That's why I flat out said I'm not sure Trou even knows what a continent is.

No they can't. One is not Caucasian simply because he has light skin. At lunch time, after you've put away the returned books, study your physical anthropology and report back. You might try Origin of The races, Carleton S. Coon.

By the definition you set above and clearly what Trou is going for sure you could be "Asian" regardless of your race or ethnicity. In the same way that one is American or Canadian. Now nobody would ever use the term that way except apparently Trou, but I'm uncertain if it's technically incorrect. In the same way that if we'd actually set up the 51st state on the moon the children born there would be Lunarian American no?

No shit?

Let's say a white boy, the last survivor of an ill fated wagon train, was captured and raised by Cheyenne Warriors. Let's say he was raised to manhood as a Cheyenne, he speaks their language, he's culturally immersed in the tribal ways of life, and if asked, he considers himself a Cheyenne warrior in every regard. Spiritually, culturally, he a Cheyenne, but racially he's still a Caucasian.

Okay, I can agree with that definition. But what would be correct to call him, or is it both? I would make the case that both terms would be correct to use in regards to him unless one was being specific about either culture in which cause he's not Caucasian (which isn't a culture to begin with) or race in which case he's not Native American.

This confusion kinda pops up mostly because of India and Russia it seems. Russia is geographically more in Asia than Europe but they aren't Asians. . .unless we're talking geography.

I am agreeing with you by the by.

A culture that is characterized by cannibalism and human sacrifice does not deserve to be called a civilization. It is not merely different; it is inferior and appalling.

So basically human civilization world wide at some point or another.

If you reverse that you get my mamaw's entire generation. They're racially Native American and ethnically white. You're trying to merge the two terms when they're two different things that overlap in multiple ways. There's actually a term for the person that you use in your example "Transethnic". There are loads of transethnic support groups online, mostly because a lot of people have been adopted into American families, and have lost their ethnic heritage as a result. Not because anything negative happened to them, but just because their American parents were incapable of immersing them in the culture of the people they were adopted from. Some people are happy to forget their racial roots and adopt the culture of their parents. Others feel town between a desire to connect to the culture they never had, and their obviously outsider status in said culture.

I worry about that with my kid. The gf's family are islanders from Jamaica. The gf is only here because her mother got her doctorate and came to an impoverished place to work because there's a program that will help you pay your student loans if you do that. As a result the only people from that culture that BiteSize has eveyday access to are her mother and grandmother. That's why it's really important to us that she travel to the islands every chance she gets. Even if that means her mom is gonna spend fucking $20 on an airport hamburger. Fuck's sake I will never not be pissed about that. They fucking gouge you because they know you've just got an hour layover and what are you gonna do? Fight Florida traffic to get to McDonalds and maybe miss you flight? By the time you get back you've spent more in cab fare than if you paid airport prices. It's bullshit is what it is.

Went off on a tangent there but fuck airport restaurants.

The problem with your example is this:
Cheyenne is a culture, not a race. One could easily be both Cheyenne AND Caucasian, which is the case with your example. The two are not mutually exclusive.

I like that he used the term "captured" like the kid was a prisoner of war. And not a child that somebody took in so it wouldn't die from exposure.
