In your search for moral equivalence you should ask yourself:
“Self, how does my wife, whose emotions I am the champion of, feel about me fucking 14 year old slags and posting pictures of them on a website as a brag.”.
“What does that make me?”
And many other dark dirty questions about ones own character that only you know the answer to.
Cuz when you find those answers, you will know freedom.
I actually really like raccoons. I was about to kill one on my porch on time, and he stopped, looked at me, and sat back on his haunches with his hands up just as I was going to smash his skull with a shovel.
I couldn’t do it. It was like we had a moment. I folded.
Later that week my dog ate him though. She loved raccoons.
We don’t need hypotheticals when we have historical facts. You are commenting on two historical events, why bring up what ifs? It’s how the uneducated (and women) argue.
I don’t condemn BLM for that as it wasn’t BLM that looted or burned down businesses. With that said, I don’t live in the ghetto anymore so in all honestly I don’t care what people there do to their own neighborhoods, and neither do white “allies” or the government. Look at how the government reacted to Jan.6; say what you want about those people but at least they targeted their enemy, and look how the government responded. You can burn down half of the buildings in Detroit and the government won’t be rebuilding them any time soon. They still have burned out shells from the riots in the 60s and 70s, like many inner cities. But as the song says, try that in a small town.
Italians live worse than any somali slum lol. Its a state riddled with corruption do bad naples was overflowing with gafnage because the camora was holding the city to ransom lol.
You should probably do some research on the Boston tea party.
So you’re racist against Italians and Somalis.
Btw, I know you have this ongoing need to bait me to react, and if you weren’t a dumb troll you would have realized that it isn’t working.
Anyway, I’m not Italian so wtf do I care?
I thought I’d seen you post before that your ancestors were either Roman or Greek? “What” are you, if you don’t mind me asking? I’m not asking in an argumentative way, by the way. I’m just genuinely curious what your background is. It’s the sort of thing that comes up in a lot of threads, like the racism one.
Why does it matter?
Dennis Hopper was Sicilian?
I’m not black.
I don’t get it.
I think people become curious about one’s race or ethnicity in such discussions as they give their personal experiences. I myself am curious about what grool’s ethnicity is considering he said he is a white man who was alienated (“otherized”) by other white men in the US or UK, and if I recall correctly, he said his own kind was killed en masse some time in history.
I’ll take his otherizing experience but believing that happened in the US would be hard considering whites here no longer have ethnic rivalries; they just view each other as white. And so many subgroups of white people here mixed to the point that one can hardly guess what are their ethnicities by appearance in many cases. My wife’s family tree shows five white ethnicities.
Because ethnic rivalries among so called whites is bad for business. It’s easier when you bleach and dilute the values, morals and culture of these separate groups to create this creature we call an American. There is no melting pot nor is there a salad. There is resistance in other countries to encroaching so called American values and culture. They see what they’ll lose just as many older immigrants here look at their grandchildren and see what they’ve lost, or given up, as they have become more and more American.
It doesn’t matter. I was just wondering. I liked @BrickHead’s way of putting it.
What do you think about the “mixing” of white ethnicities to the point where now, like you said, no one really knows “what” they are, and many don’t care? Is that good, bad, neither?
As a white American from mixed European ethnicities, I can say “American” certainly is a culture and especially Texan.
My family tree has relatives predating the revolutionary war, which they fought in, to immigrants coming over at various times, as recently as the 1920’s from Finland. My grandfather was a child at this time, so technically I’m second generation in this particular segment (but have an open invitation to join The Sons of the American Revolution otherwise), and when visiting it was the closest I’ve seen to old world homogeneity in a household. We ate a lot of traditional foods, my Grandpa spoke Finnish et cetera.
Evidently I am distantly related to Welsh royalty too, and a German prince who settled in America with some Scottish and Irish thrown in. I’ve visited these countries as a tourist and felt just like a tourist, and was proud to be American & especially Texan. It was interesting to me that when people ask where you’re from they’re mildly interested in America, but mention Texas and their eyes literally get wide and they start asking tons of questions.
American is a culture with all the identifying hallmarks of the definition of culture, and it has many subcultures within it. It may not have the history of other regional cultures, but it is the dominant cultural force in the world and has been since almost its beginning. What is happening currently in pop culture is that we are allowing the tail to wag the dog for some reason. This will end, and the tail is not the defining force of America in the big picture.
Im racist against Italians. LOL. Mama Mia.
