Name me a single example of a double standard from White identatarians (people who are called "White supremacists") with regards to race. I can name you about a dozen examples of double standards the left has with regards to race.
Why do I fail you imbecile? The OP claimed that he can name about a dozen examples of double standards the left has with regards to race so I challenged him. It's a fair question. I guess that your total worship of Trump has destroyed what little brain you have left. You are so stupid that it hurts me. Too bad for you that stupidity is not curable.
But the OP is asking a question indirectly on a message board. The thing to do would be to humor the question being asked and go from there. I think that's why Corbell said "you fail"
There you go again. Making excuses for others who worship Trump. You are very stupid and I'm sure your family is embarrassed of you. The OP is very direct in his post. The OP claimed that he can name about a dozen examples of double standards the left has with regards to race so I challenged him. What's indirect about that?
1. Blacks have a right to identity and pride, Whites don't. In fact, they have to feel ashamed of being White.
2. Blacks have a right to exclusive organizations, Whites don't.
3. Blacks have a right to their safe spaces, Whites don't
4. If Black and brown countries have a nativist immigration policies, it's OK, if Whites do it, it's a moral outrage
5. White history should be rewritten to be full of minorities eve if it's pseudohistorical. Black and browns have a right to their exclusive history
6. Blacks/browns have a right to genetic survival ie. openly advocate for their people to marry within their race. If Whites do it, it's a moral outrage
7. Blacks should get ahead in college admissions and hiring before Whites, even if merit and thus fairness and even society's interest says otherwise.
8. What is considered racism and bigotry should be different for Whites and Blacks. Ie. the line of what is racism should be lower for Whites and much higher for Blacks. Some even say Blacks cannot be racist.
9. White people should have guilt for their bad historic behavior, Black and brown people shouldn't have guilt for their bad historic behavior even if in some cases they behaved worse.
10. White should NOT be capitalized. Blacks SHOULD be capitalized.
11. Problems of Black and brown people should be blamed on Whites (CRT). Problems of Whites should also be blamed on Whites. Nothing should be blamed on Blacks even when it's obvious only they can fix them.
12. Blacks and browns should be given credit for their historical achievements (even when they’re very small). Whites shouldn’t be given credit for their historical achievements.(because that would be “White supremacy”)
I could probably list even more... Now it's up to you to show me those on the far right (so called "White supremacists")
It looks like you spent hours creating this list but I didn't read one word of your silly little rant. 🤣 You're racism and stupidity is palpable. By 2045 whites will become a minority in the US and whites 18 and younger are already a minority. That's got to piss you off!
I only asked you to create your list just so you would waste your time typing it out. I never intended to read it. How many hours did you waste on your insipid list? Then again you're pretty stupid so maybe you just copied and pasted your list from somewhere else.
All I see is a bunch of childish insults because I owned you. IF you don't read the list of don't respond that much better for me, because you admit you lost. I didn't waste time typing it because OTHER people will read it.
You are just another stupid anonymous user on a public message board. Exactly how do you own me? I see I trigger you so here, have a tissue. I bet you are angry after spending hours writing your racist list I ignored. Sure, others will read it but not me. Since you wrote that list to me you just wasted your time. Sorry for you! 🤣
I see another childish ad hominem and no arguments. Yawn.
I owned you because you asked me to list examples and after I did, you ignored them and started name calling. Typical behavior of someone who loses an argument.
Again, this is a public message board with anonymous users so what you think about me doesn't matter because you are a moron. Maybe you are trying to win a prize too.
So why are you on these boards? It’s most certainly not to change any minds and again all I see are mostly insults from you. You’re just an unoriginal troll.
It's all good Bro... the trolls here don't realize the point of the debate isn't to defeat an opponent, but to convince those listening/reading to come to your side....IE: The Lurkers.
You just destroyed him, and I'm sure some lurkers have been swayed by it....always remember that when fighting the good fight. 👊
" By 2045 whites will become a minority in the US and whites 18 and younger are already a minority. That's got to piss you off!"
Only because Whites are deliberately being lied to about race and not told example of what I listed above. If Americans knew the truth, it would be the other way around.
Really, the whole statistic is only true if you combine all other ethnicities and races to manufacture the purportedly emerging “majority.” It’s nonsense to suggest those groups form some monolithic block united to become a new majority.
What’s most interesting is how black people who proffer the statistic don’t recognize the situation presents a far more serious problem for their own demographic than whites. Take Indian-Americans for example. They rapidly became the second largest immigrant group in the U.S. over just a 10 year period. As the number of Indian-origin residents in the U.S. has swelled north of 5 million, the demographic will very soon overtake native African-Americans in size and influence. While some black people want to celebrate the declining white majority, they fail to appreciate it’s a result of massive immigration from a part of the world where people do not have two centuries of history with, concern for, or sensitivity for the black experience in America. Do blacks really believe that Indian-Americas will deploy their rising economic, political, and social influence in a way that favors black people?
Thanks for confirming yet again that you're the piece of shit we know you are. Perfectly obvious that you halfwit cunts never want to actually have an exchange of ideas. No substance, no class, not even worth the keystrokes this response required.
If Whites continue to get persecuted (like they are now) as they become a minority eventually they will fight back and it will just end in ethnic cleansing of minorities.
Keelai didn't even attempt to argue these aren't double standards. He just attempted to justify them using his far left (and false) narrative and assumptions. He also didn't even give one example of a double standard by so called "White supremacists". I can debate his left wing narrative on race in America and why it's a lie, but this is waste of time as the debate will just drag on forever. For now I just wanted liberals to give me an example of a double standard by the far right. So what do you want to do? Debate weather or not these are indeed double standards, give me example of double standards on my side or debate the historical narrative on race?
1. Blacks have a right to identity and pride, Whites don't. In fact, they have to feel ashamed of being White.
You're a moron. Whites can show as much pride as they want. It's called the KKK, flying Confederate flags on their lawn, and fawning over the history of the Third Reich. There's plenty of that all over America. It's called "The South". They have plenty of "White pride".
Most white people , like me, don't have "white pride" because it's the same exact thing as "white supremecy".
It's not the same as "black pride".
White and black people aren't the same, dumbass. Shouldn't be that hard to understand.

Do they explicitly exclude Blacks? No. Could a Black person sue them for exclusion if they did? Yes. Yet reverse organizations exclusively for Blacks are allowed.
So you don't deny that the left wants me to be ashamed for being White, but it's still somehow a strawman when I claim the left wants Whites to be ashamed for being White?
I am not ashamed because I am from Europe, thankfully here we don't have such White guilt as in US.
Yes they do. Are you living under a rock? The left wants White to feel bad about being White so that they will be more tolerant towards Blacks. Why do you think the left went crazy when someone simply wrote "it's OK to be White"?
Go watch any clip of White people kneeling during BLM riots or any clip of White people kissing Black people's shoes on public streets or White people recreating themselves as slaves with "So sorry" painted on their faces.
Even if no White person would feel guilty, that would not negate the fact that the left wants White people to feel guilty. The left wants Whites to feel guilty, but no right winger wants Blacks to feel guilty so it's an example of a double standard.
I know one guy despite living in a country that has been subject to much less White guilt than USA. If I lived in America or England, I'm sure I would know more.
Also even if did not anyone, how does that negate the clips of Whites clearly expressing White guilt? Are those staged?
Even if no White person in the world would feel guilty for being White, that would not negate the fact that the left wants them to fee guilty and privileged. My original post was about principles from the left and right.
So one guy you know. And some mythical people on an unidentified video who aren't here to explain what was going on.
You don't know what you are talking about.
My argument here doesn't depend on the extremity of action (such as kissing feet). Liberals in general want Whites to feel guilty for being White or at least their past behavior hundreds of years ago. No far right figure wants Blacks to feel guilty for their past behavior such as slavery and nearly driving Pygmies into extinction. The double standard remains.
Here are some examples of beliefs of liberals and the sources for them;
Liberals are more willing to murder someone for the greater good if that person has a white sounding name rather than a black sounding one. http://journal.sjdm.org/9616/jdm9616.pdf
>Liberals are more willing to murder someone for the greater good if that person has a white sounding name rather than a black sounding one. http://journal.sjdm.org/9616/jdm9616.pdf
This has nothing to do specifically with your claim that most liberals "in general" want white people to feel guilty for being white.
Also, it's a minority position: "We also asked participants in the community sample if they would give different judgments had the victim been of a different race. The overwhelming majority (92% of participants) said they would not, and responses to this counterfactual question did not vary by scenario, χ2 < .05, or by participants’ political orientation, r = .10, p = .40. When asked directly, most participants stated that race was irrelevant to their moral judgments."
It's specifically referring to a subsample of white liberals: White democrats and liberals who give the 'strengthens the country' response are significantly more likely to register a pro-outgroup bias
I'm suggesting that these don't seem to suggest that a *majority* do. They're just more likely to compared to other political groups. That doesn't necessarily comprise a majority.
But they on average have biases against Whites. And since liberals dominate the culture (media, entertainment, academia) the culture itself is biased against Whites.
No, they don't. You can say that 5% of people have a bias, and in some studies, liberals might represent a 15% bias. That's the level of numbers we're talking about.
Conservatives have always been fucking garbage at entertainment since post-ww2.
What do you mean not majority? On average even moderately liberal have anti White bias. Very liberals even more so. My point has been made.
It's not liberals/progressives/leftists fault that conservatives are crap at music, tv/film, etc.
You also have to take into consideration cancel culture in entertainment. In any case the point that the culture is dominated by liberals who are anti White stands.
>What do you mean not majority? On average even moderately liberal have anti White bias. Very liberals even more so. My point has been made.
If 10% of a group of people think X, it's not a majority. 90% do not.
If 30% of group of people think X, it's not a majority. 70% do not.
That's basically the data you're providing regarding liberal thought processes here. They be more likely to think X, but it's still a minority.
>You also have to take into consideration cancel culture in entertainment. In any case the point that the culture is dominated by liberals who are anti White stands.
Cancel culture since the 1950s? Entertainment has been dominated by liberals since at least the end of WW2.
That's basically the data you're providing regarding liberal thought processes here. They be more likely to think X, but it's still a minority.
So you actually have data on what percentage of liberals think this way? Let's have it? Which data says majority of liberals don't have anti White biases? Also even if only a minority were anti White, that would make them as whole more anti White. And since they dominate the culture that makes the entire culture more anti White. Also I don't see many "moderate" liberals speak out aginst anti Whiteness from their colleagues which makes them complicit.
Entertainment has been dominated by liberals since at least the end of WW2.
>So you actually have data on what percentage of liberals think this way? Let's have it?
Your own data backs this up. You've not provided anything that says a *majority* of liberals think a specific way.
>Which data says majority of liberals don't have anti White biases?
Your own data says that a minority of liberals have an 'anti-white bias'. It's simply that the minority is a bit more than the minority of people that hold this in general.
>Also I don't see many "moderate" liberals speak out aginst anti Whiteness from their colleagues which makes them complicit.
I don't see conservatives talking about against Nick Fuentes, or the garbage shit that Candace Owens says. Does that make them complicit?
>My point percisely.
So you think 'wokeness' has controlled things in entertainment since post-WW2?
There are hardly any even lesser known contemporary conservative musicians, entertainers outside of particular styles like country.
Your own data backs this up. You've not provided anything that says a *majority* of liberals think a specific way.
No it doesn't. My data just shows averages.

No it doesn't. It says on average liberals have anti White biases.
I don't see conservatives talking about against Nick Fuentes, or the garbage shit that Candace Owens says. Does that make them complicit?
They do it all the time. Besides, main beliefs by WN are not worthy of condemnation. I don't like Funtes beliefs about forcing Christianity, but regarding race he does not have any double standards. Oh look we're at the beginning again. Name me a double standard of WN when it comes to race.

It wasn't called wokeness back then but liberals controlled the culture since the 60s.

No, it doesn't. It says they are more likely to have such a bias. Not that its a majority of them.

And I am speaking generally. When has he been collectively condemned? When has Candice Owen been condemned for baselessly accusing all politicians of being gay?
>It wasn't called wokeness back then but liberals controlled the culture since the 60s.
What? So you can only measure a trait on an individual level but can't on an ethnic one? I guess we can't have any average height data by ethicity or race.
"Minstrel" isn't a culture.
You brought up minstrel. Black have their own culture which is easily argubable to be worse than White culture. If it's a burden on others, parody and condemnation is warranted
Redneck is a culture. It also doesn't deliberately disparage all white people, as being a redneck is a subculture prominently populated by white people.
It does all Southerners and rural Whites.
The comparison here would be making fun of hip-hop urban subculture, or something. Not minstrel performances.
You brought up minstrel. I agree making fun of Black urban gansta culture should be OK, but today it's considered "racist"
Have you actually read any documentation against your position whatsoever?
Yes, I've heard all their arguments. None of them are good enough. Have you read all the arguments of race realists?
Yes, Liberals are more likely to think X, but that doesn't mean a majority of them think X.
Acoording to the chart I posted, even moderate liberals have on average anti White biases.
It says they are more likely to have such a bias. Not that its a majority of them.
If the bias is so severe as the data shows and majority don't have them, that means the minority who do have to be even more severe validating my argument about AGGREGATE differences. And you still haven't showed me data that majority of liberals don't have anti White biased.
Mass executions?
Perfidious. Meaning those that behave bad. I disagree anyone should be executed, but I still see no double standards when it comes RACE in America. Jews are White.
>You brought up minstrel. Black have their own culture which is easily argubable to be worse than White culture. If it's a burden on others, parody and condemnation is warranted
There isn't a single black culture.
>If the bias is so severe as the data shows and majority don't have them, that means the minority who do have to be even more severe validating my argument about AGGREGATE differences. And you still haven't showed me data that majority of liberals don't have anti White biased.
Your own data doesn't show the majority having an anti-white bias. Your own data is the argument against it.
>My personal thoughts? High IQ leftist Jews who who took control of institutions (Hollywood, media, education) partly due to their IQs partly due to high motivation and nepotism. Their influence in the media shaped the culture after TV became dominant in every household. Jews on average tend to have anti White biases due to what happened to them in Europe and I believe they tend to support leftism out of their own ethnic interest. Just my personal thoughts, I am not saying this is certain.
So "just trust me bro" levels of reasoning.
>Perfidious. Meaning those that behave bad. I disagree anyone should be executed, but I still see no double standards when it comes RACE in America. Jews are White.
During one of his most recent rants, Fuentes said in part, “There is an occult element at the highest levels of society, and specifically among the Jews.”
He railed against what he called “evil doers” and “people who worship false gods.”
He said, “Those people, when we take power, they need to be given the death penalty. Straight up. … Absolutely annihilated.”
He said, “This is God’s country. This is Jesus’s country. This is not the domain of atheists or devil worshipers or perfidious Jews … .”
Your own data doesn't show the majority having an anti-white bias. Your own data is the argument against it.
Then show me your data majority don't.
So "just trust me bro" levels of reasoning.
Oh come on man. Good reasons to think this. And you asked me for my opinion. Never said I could prove it 100%
During one of his most recent rants, Fuentes said in part, “There is an occult element at the highest levels of society, and specifically among the Jews.”
He wants me dead. Thoughts on that?
Never said you have to like Fuentes. Where is there a double standard when it come to race in America?

Sort of. There is not a single African-American culture, nor a single African-British culture.
And plenty don't necessarily identify with said prominent cultures.
>Ummm yes it does.
No, it does not. It shows that a minority of Liberal whites hold prejudice against their own race, but it's still a minority. It may be higher than the amount of non-liberal whites, but it's still a minority.
>It would be stupid of them to brag considering they're a small minority, so one would think there weren't any examples, but still...
Again, this is a presupposition from your end that they are bragging, but simply that they are too smart to implicate themselves in such a way.
Hollywood being disproportionately Jewish historically (which includes tons of secular jews: Do you think a secular jew, on account of their heritage has inherent malevolent motives and thatt they all think and act in lockstep)?
Jewish people have always historically been driven into being entrepeneurs, entering business and in entertainment. Them being directors and writers and actors etc isn't evidence of any malevolent motive to deliberately alter western culture.
"No, it does not. It shows that a minority of Liberal whites hold prejudice against their own race, but it's still a minority. It may be higher than the amount of non-liberal whites, but it's still a minority."
Nope, the data shows that BOTH "very liberal" as well as "liberal" have on average anti White biases. It doesn't say anything about percentages of within each group. Since both those groups ON AVERAGE have anti White biases , it's probably not a minority view unless those that do have biases have such extreme anti White views that they would shift the overall for their group which isn't likely. Their views would have to be really extreme for this to be the case.
Again, this is a presupposition from your end that they are bragging, but simply that they are too smart to implicate themselves in such a way.
So it's irrational to assume that a small minority who has been historically persecuted everywhere they lived would not be so stupid to publically brag about their power?
Hollywood being disproportionately Jewish historically (which includes tons of secular jews: Do you think a secular jew, on account of their heritage has inherent malevolent motives and thatt they all think and act in lockstep)?
Secular Jews still see themselves as ethnically Jewish and have a strong Jewish ethnic identity and survival values. Secular or religious makes little difference.
It doesn't prove but it provides an enable mechanism for them to do so. They couldn't control/influence culture if they were shoe shiners.
So an article published by one of the nation's most prestigious newspaper about a Jew bragging about how his people control the culture through entertainment is not good evidence for you that they as a people might have a vested interest in Western culture and to change it in a particular direction? reply share

The data you linked very much did refer to percentages.
>So it's irrational to assume that a small minority who has been historically persecuted everywhere they lived would not be so stupid to publically brag about their power?
You also assume they have specific power, and clarity of motive (all Jews think and want the same thing). You've not backed any of this up.
>Secular Jews still see themselves as ethnically Jewish and have a strong Jewish ethnic identity and survival values. Secular or religious makes little difference.
Any evidence for this whatsoever? And how does the strong "Jewish ethnic identity and survival values" somehow impact the type of content a screenwriter would want to make?
>So an article published by one of the nation's most prestigious newspaper about a Jew bragging about how his people control the culture through entertainment is not good evidence for you that they as a people might have a vested interest in Western culture and to change it in a particular direction?
Your article from Forward says no such thing. Quote it where the author there brags about controlling entertainment.
>Where are the percentages in the link i've posted?
Provide your links again. They didn't stipulate that a majority of liberals think X regarding this.
>No I just rationally think they are ethno centric like one would expect from their religion and history.
And what does being "ethnocentric" when it comes to being a Jew look like exactly? Most Jews in the US entertainment industry aren't religious. What would their content look like exactly?
>Is this a serious question or sarcasm?
Serious question. The oft-repeated charge is that they're making 'woke' content. What would 'woke' content have to do with "Jewish ethnic identity and survival values"?
They show averages which suggests that majority think that or at least a strong minority. If only a small minority of liberals held anti White views, it wouldn't drag down the total average of entire categories.
Hollywood promotes leftist policies on social issues (refugees, White guilt, Whites are bad and incompetent, Blacks are smart, moral and competent. Feminism is good). All those things are in Jewish ethnic interest. Jews feel safer the more "diverse" America is because they will "sick out" less
>They show averages which suggests that majority think that or at least a strong minority.
A "strong minority" is otherwise known as a plurality, genius. That was my point. It's NOT a majority and no data you've provided demonstrated it was.
>Hollywood promotes leftist policies on social issues (refugees, White guilt, Whites are bad and incompetent, Blacks are smart, moral and competent.
Any actual evidence for this? This is just a mythos now. I've watched many shows where black people are antagonists, villainous or anti-heroes.
>Feminism is good).
What's your working definition of feminism that Hollywood allegedly promotes?
>All those things are in Jewish ethnic interest.
How so?
>Jews feel safer the more "diverse" America is because they will "sick out" less
Why would they stick out more in a less diverse America? Most Jews just look like white americans.
Because Jews feel threatened by strong White ethnic groups given their history. Also, by getting rid of Whites, they are eliminating competition for their power. Other races aren't intellectually challenging to them.
"Jews feel safer the more "diverse" America is because they will "sick out" less
Why would they stick out more in a less diverse America? Most Jews just look like white Americans."
You don't have to distinguish a Jew from a non Jew physically to know that there are Jews.

That's typical of most whites who haven't learned to broaden their viewpoint and reassess and unlearn their own enculturation.
1. ALL institutions are controlled by whites and run with white standards and values and reinforce white identity & pride. Anyone not white is "other" & ashamed of NOT being White. White Jesus, white ETs, flesh color = white skin, white = generic/standard, etc.
2. White institutions excluded Blacks so they created their own.
3. Whites excluded Blacks from schools, jobs, housing... creating white-only jobs, neighborhoods, schools, etc..
4. U.S. is a settler-colonialist project w/immigration population. Not a white country!
5. History excluded minorities. Only pseudohistory w/whites only taught.
6. Whites raped black slaves for centuries.
7. White racism: job discrimination; unequal tax distribution = poorly funded unequal schools; poorly funded black areas, poorly funded healthcare... White racism denies blacks a fair & equitable shot at universities
8. Bigotry, prejudice & racism are not the same. Racism is bigotry with power behind it. Whites control ALL institutions, therefore can discriminate against ALL blacks w/ sweeping broad policies & laws. A black bigot can only affect one or a few whites.
9. White people SHOULD have guilt for their bad historic behavior, AND CHANGE! "Black and brown people... they behaved worse." You'll have to specify what's worse than genocide, land theft, kidnapping, slavery, persecution, lynching, Jim Crow...
10. White is a race. Black is a race & ethnic group.
11. No, Blacks can't fix white racism. Only whites can fix that since whites control ALL institutions.
12. White historical achievements are emphasized while Blacks and browns are omitted which explains your ignorance.
I'll add that your "victimhood" is typical racist behavior.
>9. White people SHOULD have guilt for their bad historic behavior, AND CHANGE! "Black and brown people... they behaved worse." You'll have to specify what's worse than genocide, land theft, kidnapping, slavery, persecution, lynching, Jim Crow...
I'm not responsible for the actions of my ancestors.
>10. White is a race. Black is a race & ethnic group.
What? What is your term of reference for both these terms?
9. You're responsible for perpetrating their bigotry and racism. Sociopaths and psychopaths don't feel guilt.
10. Rev. Jesse Jackson encouraged everyone to use the term African-American in 1988. I actually remember the news broadcast with his interview suggesting the change. The term caught on. https://newafricanmagazine.com/3168/
Prior to that interview, Black was used simultaneously as an ethnic group term for black people with historical roots in the U.S. as well as for the entire race.
10. Not all black people in the USA could be fairly considered African-American. African-American is just a cultural term. It's no more of inherent value than "Irish-American".
So black is still just used for the entire race then.
Black is used for both race and ethnic group. Ethnic groups are capitalized.
9. LOL!!
Btw, the way institutional racism works is even if you're not a bigot, you still profit from racism as a white person.
For instance, racist zoning laws dumped polluting and toxic industries into black areas, therefore your white area is cleaner, you're healthier and will live longer than a black person. Blacks have higher asthma rates because of these discriminatory zoning laws.
White schools, neighborhoods, healthcare access receive more funds, therefore you benefit as a white person.
You're less likely to be pulled over by cops for driving a nice car and beaten to death since white lives are valued more. If you are arrested, you'll receive a lighter sentence than a black person committing the same crime. There is white-skin privilege.
I consider your ignorance of the above few examples to be proof of your racism and bigotry.
>Black is used for both race and ethnic group. Ethnic groups are capitalized.
So therefore white can be used for both race and ethnic group in the same way you seem to think its fine for black to be used for both.
9. That's not an answer. I didn't ask how I benefit from institutional racism - that's a different topic altogether (the extent of which can be debated). I asked what bigotry and racism have I perpetuated?
>I consider your ignorance of the above few examples to be proof of your racism and bigotry.
10. White is only used for race. WASP, Anglo-American, Anglo-Saxon, Irish-American, Irish, Italian, Italian-American, etc.. are used for ethnic groups.
Totally different history. Whites know their country of origin, last names and family histories. That knowledge was taken from African-Americans during their ancestors' slavery. Stop trying to claim victimization when it doesn't apply to you.
9. You clearly have zero understanding of racism and bigotry. Again, that's a commonality among racists and bigots.
Racism and bigotry don't need to be consciously intended. As a matter of fact, most are done unintentionally. Furthermore, you're benefitting from institutional racism, therefore you are part of the problem whether you want to admit it or not.
Your attempt to disassociate yourself from racism and bigotry is also common behavior of bigots and racists.
Most stereotype bigots and racists as extremes like KKK and evil. Nope. Most are regular folks, even nice, unaware of their own behavior.
Your problem is being self-unaware. You need to move pass your enculturation.
>10. White is only used for race. WASP, Anglo-American, Anglo-Saxon, Irish-American, Irish, Italian, Italian-American, etc.. are used for ethnic groups.
But "white" could be used for ethnic groups in the same way you're saying that black is used for ethnic groups.
>Totally different history. Whites know their country of origin, last names and family histories. That knowledge was taken from African-Americans during their ancestors' slavery. Stop trying to claim victimization when it doesn't apply to you.
There are a lot of black americans that do not descend from an African country. What are they?
9. You still have not explained what racism and bigoted positions that I hold.
>Racism and bigotry don't need to be consciously intended. As a matter of fact, most are done unintentionally. Furthermore, you're benefitting from institutional racism, therefore you are part of the problem whether you want to admit it or not.
If institutional racism does exist, and exists to the extent that you're claiming, how is it you expect a white person to somehow not benefit from them so they can't be held culpable?
>Your attempt to disassociate yourself from racism and bigotry is also common behavior of bigots and racists.
So simply saying "I'm not racist" is in itself evidence of racism? What? This is unfalsifiable.
And your position is also deeply Americabrained. You do realise I'm British, right? Your American-based positions here hold no direct relevance to my own upbringing, culture etc.
10. White has NEVER been used as an ethnic group. Case closed!
"There are a lot of black americans that do not descend from an African country. What are they?"
You peaked my curiosity. To whom are you referring?
"... not benefit from them so they can't be held culpable?"
We don't want to benefit from racism. We want to end it!
As a Brit, you benefitted from centuries of colonialism, too.
ROTFLMAO! Britain is notorious for its racism. You know... colonialism! And Britain is 100% responsible for starting the Palestinian/Israel fiasco which the U.S. is continuing. Basically, a racist settler-colonizer project to rid a land of its Indigenous population and replace it with Europeans. Didn't you guys have race riots attacking innocent Muslims and immigrants last week? And most of the people who died in that high rise fire were people of color. Substandard housing ok for them?
"no direct relevance to my own upbringing, culture"
Then, you clearly don't know American history or culture since the original slavers came from Britain's aristocracy hoping to recreate their lifestyle in the U.S. with slaves instead of peasants. Many of the common laws, culture, prejudices, ruling-class (WASP), etc. came from Britain.
>10. White has NEVER been used as an ethnic group. Case closed!
I'm not sure this is true at all.
>You peaked my curiosity. To whom are you referring?
Black people who live in the USA whose ancestry derives from the Caribbean.
>As a Brit, you benefitted from centuries of colonialism, too.
Okay. So? What do you want me to do about it now?
> Didn't you guys have race riots attacking innocent Muslims and immigrants last week?
Yes. And most of them have been given harsh sentences. What's your point?
>And most of the people who died in that high rise fire were people of color. Substandard housing ok for them?
Are you talking about Grenfell? That was based in London. Had that fire took place in Leeds or Sheffield, the demographics of those who died would've been very different.
>Then, you clearly don't know American history or culture since the original slavers came from Britain's aristocracy hoping to recreate their lifestyle in the U.S. with slaves instead of peasants. Many of the common laws, culture, prejudices, ruling-class (WASP), etc. came from Britain.
No. I did know this. I'm just unsure of its contemporary relevance.
Then, you clearly don't know American history or culture since the original slavers came from Britain's aristocracy
Let's not overlook the racial/ethnic background of the (((slave traders))) either, Keelai. Help me out, though. Were they your alleged "white Jews" or were they of the non-white variety? If you really want to be helpful you could fire up Vizio and make a flow chart. Thank you in advance.
No it's not. If Germans changed their names to Anglo despite not being slaves, how does Black Anglo names prove Anglos were the only slave owners. I'm not saying Anglos weren't slave owners (they were historically the founding group in America and an overwhelming majority up to a certain point in time), but many Jews were also slave owners, yet you don't see Blacks with Jewish names. Plenty of Jews also have Anglo names because they changed them.
1: White identity is suppressed, not reinforced. What planet do you live in?
2. No White identatarian has a problem with Blacks having their own institutions. White institutions are forbidden.
3. So What? How does that debunk the double standard of modern society that Whites safe spaces aren't allowed but Black one are?
4. Believe what you want about US. This argument isn't US specific, how about UK, Sweden or France? Liberia's constitution limits citizenship to only Blacks. Mexico had an explicit law aimed at preserving ethnic makeup until very recently. Liberals never complained about it. The same with Israel and Japan. But if Trump wants to stop illegal immigration he's the new Hitler. It's bad only when Whites do it. Insane double standards
5. Even if your narrative was true, history doesn't justify double standards today. Liberals literally made a movie about a Black Cleopatra even though she was Greek. Name me one right winger who wants Shaka Zulu or Munsa Musa to be portrayed as White.
6. Even if your one sided narrative was true (which it isn't since Blacks have always raped more White women than the other way around) it wouldn't debunk my argument about double standards. I see plenty of Black and Hispanic only dating sites and nobody complains, but if someone makes a White one, there's outrage.
7. Blacks don't do worse due to poor schools. Data debunks this and even if they did, it wouldn't debunk the argument that today liberals want less qualified Blacks to get ahead of more qualified Whites and Asians. No right winger proposes the opposite. The point stands.
8. Just because one ethnic group has more total power due to having larger numbers doesn't mean standards for what is considered bigotry should be different for different ethnic groups. Blacks have more power relative to their numbers and their merit.
Your comment is filled with lies and racist propaganda. You're worse than Tramp.
1. Why is God represented as white? ETs? Beauty standards? Band-aids flesh color? Adam and Eve although they're African?
2. Name national institutions not controlled by whites?
3. There are plenty of ethnic-white spaces like Irish groups, Italian groups, etc. Isn't your KKK and neo-Nazi Party safe spaces for you?
4. Tramp said he only wants to stop nonwhite immigration. He's a racist.
5. Racists literally made movies with white Egyptians and Judeans, although they were black and brown. Cowboys represented as white although 1/3 were black or Mexican and the original cowboys were Indigeneous. Still plenty of racist whitewashing in movies: https://movieweb.com/hollywood-whitewashing-casting-examples-worst/ Why aren't you complaining?
6. White men raped black and Indigeneous women for centuries throughout America. Why are you proj ecting?
7. Explain who poorly funded, overcrowded public schools are equal to well-funded small-sized private schools?
8. Rich white males are at the top of the hierarchy. Explain how white male billionaires and multi-millionaires are a majority? Explain how they have no power?
First of all calling things "racist" and "KKK" is not an argument.
1. Because Whites are a historic majority and this is a historic White country. How is Jesus portrayed in Korea? Ever seen the movie Bruce Almighty? Morgan Freeman doesn't look White to me.
2. If an ethnic group is an overwhelming majority of the population (especially for adult population) they are going to be majority of the people who run the institutions. Especially since the largest minorities have almost a standard deviation lower IQs than them. Blacks have ever imaginable ethnic organization from association
of Black cardiologists to Black student unions to congressional Black caucuses. For Whites this is seen as an outrage and illegal. Double standard.
3 And if an Irish American organization excludes a Black person who is partially Irish it would be an outrage. Imagine if only Mexican or Guatemalan organizations were allowed but not Hispanic ones. Imagine if only Cherokee and Navajo organizations were allowed but not Native American ones. Whites are a meta ethnicity and in an increasingly "diverse" America, European ethnicities are going to matter less and collective Whites ones more. A majority brown America isn't going to see someone half Polish half German by their ethnicity, but as White. Also most Whites have plenty of European ethnic backgrounds so it doesn't make sense they identify with their ethnic background but by their race. The left doesn't talk about English-American privilege, but White privilege. A White American can shed his German heritage, but not his White one.
4. No he didn't. He never proposed stopping non Whites immigrate. Even his RAISE ACT only proposed cutting immigration in half and imposing merit based as opposed to family reunification policy. His main agenda was stopping illegal immigration and that was enough for the media to call him Hitler.
Calling things "racist" and "KKK" is an accurate description.
1. Whites are a historic minority and didn't exist before 8,000 years ago, therefore your answer is wrong.
2. Nonsense. All institutions of government, business, communications, transportation, etc. were and are controlled by white men. Statistically, there are more white women. Again, your answer is wrong
3. Whites create segregation laws and institutions. Women segregate along gender. Ethnic groups I know allow everyone. Your answer is wrong.
4. "As 2018 got underway, Donald Trump hosted a White House meeting with a group of senators and referred to Haiti and African nations as “s---hole countries.” The Republican added that he’d like to see the United States welcome more people from countries such as Norway." https://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/maddowblog/trump-makes-unsubtle-call-immigration-nice-countries-rcna146865 You're wrong again!
It only sounds "racist" and "KKK" to your far left ass
1. They built American society. They founded America and they are a people. Jesus is portrayed as Korean in Korea, yet you don't have a problem with that. But when Whites portray Jesus or God as White, you whine. No White so called "racist" has a problem with God or Jesus being portrayed as Black in Africa. You just have double standards against Whites.
2. That's not a reply to my argument. I explained why Whites are overrepresented, you failed to show how that is not a valid reply.
3. No ethnic groups don't allow everyone. Jewish organizations are for Jews. Hispanic ones for Hispanics and so on. Only Whites aren't allowed theirs.
4. Calling Spade a Spade is not a double standard. Tell me of a Trump plan where he proposed immigration policy only for Whites. One comment isn't an official proposition. He was also called Hitler way before 2018 when he made that comment.
5. Egyptians looked like Arabs when they weren't under the sun. Not far different from Whites. Also it wasn't political, but practical. There weren't many Egyptian actors in Hollywood 50 years ago. There still aren't. Cleopatra swap was on the other hand 100% political.
6. Name me a historic war where men didn't rape women of the enemy tribe. That was during conquest ethic, not today. Blacks today rape much much more than Whites. They rape in peace which is a better indication of inherent violence propensities.
7. Again data shows school quality doesn't matter. It's not the school, it's the student. Also why should White people fund Black schools? Who is stopping Blacks from funding their own schools? As far as I'm concerned they can have their own country and schools how ever they want them. Also this is not a counter argument of my main point which is that the left wants less capable Blacks ahead of more capable Whites. No prominent White person wants the opposite. Today a rich Black kid with worse test scores gets ahead of a poor White. This is what the left calls justice.
8. Ever heard of race and IQ? How many of those Whites are Jews who are only 2% of the population? The same reason. IQ.
5. Arabs have nothing to do with Ancient Egypt. Egyptians painted themselves with brown skin. The Akhenaten era was the least stylized and most realistic art period. They have full lips, broad noses and textured hair. Ancient Egyptians were racially and ethnically mixed with darker Africans living mainly in Upper Egypt and lighter Asiatic people in Lower Egypt. There were also a large number of Nubians in and near Egypt who also ruled during certain periods and still live in Egypt now. Their culture was mainly black African when you compare artifacts, culture, burial, etc. Furthermore, the skeletons and skulls are clearly Black. (I studied anatomy in university). Cleopatra was likely racially mixed like her sister. No one knows what Cleo looked like since there are no contemporary images. (Coins are nonsensical since they're highly stylized instead of representative). You're wrong.
7. No link. Brown vs Board of Education testimony proved your answer is nonsense decades ago. You're wrong.
8. All test are culturally biased and attached to wealth, good school, tutoring, etc.. There are no racial differences in IQ. Read books! "The Myth of Race: The Troubling Persistence of an Unscientific Idea " by anthropologist Robert Wald Sussman. Scientific racism was debunked decades ago. You're wrong again.
5. I never said they were Arabs, I said they looked like Arabs. They weren't Black. At least most of them. Also you never replied to my argument about the difference between practical racial casting and political.
6. No, i'm putting in a proper context given what our disagreement is about. White includes Hispanic. Whites are majority of the population so this isn't per capita. Interracial rape is overwhelming Black on White. The revers is vanishingly small.
7. Brown was a political decision based on doll studies which hid what the data about those dolls actually showed. Besides this has nothing to to with my original point. Left wants less capable Blacks accepted ahead of more capable Whites. Even if poor Black performance was proven to be 100% due to past exclusion (which the data contradicts) it would still be a double standard. My point stands.
8. The culture bias argument has been so debunked it's even been dropped by the left. Black kids from rich families score lower on SAT than White kids from poor families. Your politically motivated leftist books prove nothing but the fact society is afraid to admit the truth. Even if Black and White IQ gap was 100% due to toxic Black culture it would still explain overrepresentation of Whites among billionaires and it would be Black people's fault for perpetuating the toxic culture in their community.
9. Whites were first to come up the idea to end slavery. They banned slavery in all of Africa and the rest of the world which had to be ruled by Whites to end it which says a lot about non Whites. Arabs practiced worse slavery than Whites, yet there is no Arab slavery guilt today. Africa had slavery for centuries before Europeans arrived, Black Bantus in Africa nearly exterminated Pygmies and Bushmen and took their land and even today treat them like animals. No guilt. Whites are held to higher standards than non Whites when it comes to past behavior.
10. In America White is also an ethnic group since most Whites have MANY ethnic backgrounds. White is kind of a meta ethnicity just like Native American or Australian aborigines who also are divided into tribes and are seen as a people by the left. If you capitalize Slav or Arab who are also meta ethnicity, then you should capitalize White.
11. Whites did everything and more. Problems of Blacks today are not due to "racism" but due to Black culture, single motherhood if not Black genetics. Even if you believe toxic Black behavior today is due to past racism, it's still up to Blacks to fix it. Nobody else can make Blacks do their homework and stop having children out of wedlock.
12. Modern science came from Europe, industrial revolution came from Europe, technological revolution came from Europe, modern economy came from Europe, democracy came from Europe, women's rights came from Europe, worker's rights came from Europe. Look at Wikipedia article on White people. It just says they're a social construct that is unfairly privileged. Not a word about all these achievements. Meanwhile the article on Blacks if full of their minor achievements. Google search for White inventors gives images of Blacks.
9. Is this KKK talking points?
10. What are you rambling about?
11. More KKK talking points?
12. More KKK ideology from you? You're proving that you never learned any history since practically every important development came from Asia, Africa and Americas.
For instance, Democracy came from Native-Americans who influenced the Founding Fathers.
"More than 600 years before the United States existed, America’s original inhabitants were already practicing a form of democracy that Ben Franklin and other founders would later borrow from.
Black Africans were shipped here, cheek by jowl in chains, in their tens of thousands, year after year, across the Atlantic to work, while the sun shone and after, without pay for centuries, their children consigned to the same fate.
Do you have a similar racial example for us, going 'the other way' ?
Of course, history and centuries of abuse don't leave a mark, and should be studiously ignored in the interests of 'fairness'.
What is your point? Everyone had slaves. My point is people who are today called "White supremacists" don't have ANY double standards, while the left has at least a dozen.
My point is that you don't have a slave in the last ten generations, or lived thru the post-civil-war suppression based upon race, if you are white. It's not that complicated.
The double standard is pretending that we all have the same approximate history, background, privilege, opportunities.
There is no evidence slavery has anything to do with Black poverty today. In fact the evidence says otherwise. What makes you think we all deserve the same opportunities? Whites and Blacks are not people with different skin color. They are different ethnic groups. And today Blacks have in many ways more opportunities than Whites (DEI, affirmative action, government favors to Black owned businesses...)
"There is no evidence slavery has anything to do with Black poverty today."
Of course, there is!!! It denied blacks generational wealth. If your forefathers worked literally centuries without one paycheck, then you're going to be much poorer than families allowed to accumulate wealth and pass it on to their children.
Furthermore, another century of Jim Crow denied blacks opportunities in jobs, education, etc. which kept them poorer.
The #1 group to benefit from affirmative action is white women!
Application of DEI and affirmative action won't succeed because of the severity of past racism which is ongoing, self-sustaining and embedded within all institutions.
The poorest group are Native-Americans whose land was stolen. Imagine if whites bought the land. They wouldn't be the poorest group anymore. Also, the government should pay back wages to the descendants of slaves.
So which blacks in the United States have had all these strikes against them? Can you please specify names and addresses? If you can't, the very question reparations is pointless.
No this has been debunked. How do we know that? By looking at Blacks who were freed before emancipation proclamation. After 2 generations, these two groups did not statistically differ in terms of educational and economic success. Also other studies show that the speed at which of Blacks fades though generations shows that it is extremely unlikely slavery still has effect after 160 years. Also data clearly shows that wealth gaps and unemployment gaps between Blacks and Whites haven't decreased, but actual increased over the last decades, the opposite you would expect if slavery was the cause of Black poverty.
No, White women don't benefit more from affirmative action. This has been debunked: https://youtu.be/O-QFebX3uok
Do some more research. Plenty of Europeans were slaves. Many were slaves in the United States. And many were slaves before the Africans were purchased in Africa and brought to the New World.
The depth of your ignorance is note-worthy. I have no desire to 'debate' with you.
Do some research on the difference between 'indentured servitude' and chattel slavery, and then bug off - you are annoyingly confrontational, in historical 'view' the creature of malignant disinformation mongers...
Excusing Maga crowds who beat up police, damaged the Capitol and threatened lives of lawmakers on 1/6/21 by pointing to protests by BLM people protesting police brutality and lack of accountability in the justice system in dealing with violent cops - as if they are somehow related. Furthermore, minimizing the violence of 1/6 while exaggerating damage during BLM protests (e.g. they burned our cities to the ground), most of which was caused by white supremacist right wing agitators.
Fist of all this was not my point at all. I'm not a blind Trumptard or a MAGA cultist, But since you brought this up, I have to respond to some of your so called "points"
Trump and thus Jan 6 wouldn't have happened if America was all White. Populist politicians get elected when there is a shadow resentment against elite in the country ie where there is a perception that ruling class isn't connected to the ordinary citizen and his grievances. Wonder why there is no Trump in Canada?
There is no pattern of police brutality against Black people, only general police brutality, but that is expectable given the crime rates and stress/threat police are subjected to in America compared to say a country like Iceland or Finland who are - low and behold - much less diverse and thus more safe.
BLM riots were objectively worse than Jan 6. both in terms of time lasted, casualties and damage caused. Jan 6 was caused by a few angry political partisans desperate at the system which neglected them for 40 years and at most if you want a mistake by one person - Trump who didn't do enough to tell them to stop. BLM riots were caused by deliberate lies on behalf of the media and education in America who has spewed lies about Blacks being victims of police for decades and and lies of them being victims of society in general. Even if BLM grievances were legit (which they weren't) it would still be irresponsible for the media to incite them given the potential damage they tend to cause materially and loss of life.
>Trump and thus Jan 6 wouldn't have happened if America was all White. Populist politicians get elected when there is a shadow resentment against elite in the country ie where there is a perception that ruling class isn't connected to the ordinary citizen and his grievances. Wonder why there is no Trump in Canada?
Canada has a very different political system than the USA. A Trump would find it much harder just on that basis, but also Canada has racial issues just like the USA and many people there are upset about the 'ruling class', as it were, so I'm not quite sure what you're getting at.
Trump was a backlash against demographic replacement/tolerance to illegal immigration and political correctness which mainly comes from race. If America was all White, this backlash never would have happened. Name a Western almost all White country with populist politicians winning elections that are called Hitler. Wonder why Canada and Uk, two other mainly Anglo countries have universal healthcare? Because they are less Black. And don't trust me, this is the opinion of top economists who analyzed the cause of difference between Europe and America in social safety nets. You lefties who complain about harsh capitalism in US but support diversity are hypocrites.
>Wonder why Canada and Uk, two other mainly Anglo countries have universal healthcare? Because they are less Black. And don't trust me, this is the opinion of top economists who analyzed the cause of difference between Europe and America in social safety nets. You lefties who complain about harsh capitalism in US but support diversity are hypocrites.
Canada has roughly the same proportion of white people as the USA does.
And can you name me these "top economists" that claim this please?
Canada used to be historically WAY Whiter than US particularly less Black. Only in recent years has it opened borders to other people and even today it's immigration policy is merit based meaning the minorities in Canada don't behave as Blacks and Hispanics do in the US.
Economists are Alberto Alesina, Edward Glaeser and Bruce Sacredote. The paper is called Why doesn't the US have a European style Welfare state. It is by Harvard institute of economic research. They conclude about half of the variable is due to ethnic makeup of the US, other half due to other factors.
>Canada used to be historically WAY Whiter than US particularly less Black. Only in recent years has it opened borders to other people and even today it's immigration policy is merit based meaning the minorities in Canada don't behave as Blacks and Hispanics do in the US.
Canada was 76% white in 2011. USA was 72% white in 2010. The differences over 10 years ago were not vast.
Back to your continued stalking. This is a reply from me from 12 days ago.
Can I *crickets* you when you don't reply to me or others? Which is common. Is it okay for you to abandon arguments?
What is it I should be arguing there? His argument is also flawed because India, a far more populated and racially diverse country than the USA happens to have public healthcare options.
This is a such a great point. People often wonder how I can be far left on economic issues while holding far right views on cultural matters. The truth is, there’s no contradiction. I support a strong welfare system because I believe in its benefits, but I also think it can only be effective in a White, racially homogeneous, high-trust society. In other words, my economic socialism and my cultural conservatism complement each other perfectly because the success of my socialist policies hinges on the social cohesion found in such a society.
"Trump and thus Jan 6 wouldn't have happened if America was all White."
If you want "all whites", then return to Europe. I suggest Poland or Ukraine. America is originally a region inhabited by brown people. Furthermore, Hispanics and Black people had settled in America in the 1500s long before other Europeans.
"The first Africans from Spain were known as ladinos, or hispanicized Africans, and were soldiers, servants, settlers, and slaves. They began to arrive in the Americas as early as the 15th century, many as auxiliaries to the Spanish and Portuguese explorers." https://www.nps.gov/ethnography/aah/aaheritage/spanishamb.htm
"1513: Africans arrive in Florida with Spanish explorer Juan Ponce de León, the first European to lay claim to Florida.
September 8, 1565: St. Augustine is founded nearly a half century before Jamestown by Don Pedro Menéndez de Avilés, who arrived from Spain with 800 colonists including approximately 50 Africans, both free and enslaved. The Africans brought by Menéndez become an integral part of America’s first colony." https://www.nps.gov/casa/learn/historyculture/african-americans-in-st-augustine-1565-1821.htm
Keelai, Skavau and the other Sisters are full of passion but light on brainpower and frequently end up humiliating themselves when they attempt to talk politics.
I am from Europe. I would have nothing against all White Americans returning to Europe provided brown people in Europe return to Morocco and Pakistan. If this happened, American Blacks and Hispanics would follow them just like they follow them now everywhere Whites go.
>Name me a single example of a double standard from White identatarians (people who are called "White supremacists") with regards to race. I can name you about a dozen examples of double standards the left has with regards to race.
One simple example here I can think of is the opposition to affirmative action and DEI-based hiring practices. I understand and agree with many complaints on this from them.
But a lot of those same people take umbrage with the civil rights in the USA as restrictions on private businesses and think that employers should be allowed to fire people for any reason, or a business should be able to refuse service for any reason. To my mind, if you're going to permit that legally - then you can't really object to a business hiring someone *for any reason* legally. Which in practice is what DEI policies from private companies are: race-based hiring.
In either case, I feel that if you're against DEI and affirmative action policies then you must also be against companies firing people for any reason or businesses refusing service for any reason. Which many right-wing types are not.
There's not a single remaining example of institutional racism in the U.S.A. that favors white men. It all goes the other way. I only hope that a century hence my progeny are raking in their justly due reparations.
No "far right" or White identatarian openly advocates that a less qualified White person should get a job or university admission ahead of a more qualified Black person. The opposite is obviously the foundation of left wing ideology. My point stands.
I've seen people on here say specifically that employment and service prejudice against white people is wrong and should not be allowed by law, but that it should however be acceptable to refuse jobs or service to black people.
I haven't seen that anywhere. Today in America it's illegal to discriminate against Blacks, but not against Whites (generally). I am a White identatarian and I believe as long as America is multiracial that hiring policy should be strictly merit based. If you have an example of some prominent "far right" figure saying Whites should be openly favored even controlling for merit, please list it.
Are you sure you didn't misunderstand what they meant? What is their reasoning? Also I asked from prominent White identatarians, not some losers on moviechat forum.
Nobody identifies as a "racist". The latter is a smear term just like "heretic" or "infidel". I am personally opposed to artificial favoritism to Whites and I've never heard any prominent figure in the identatarian movement advocate this despite being in the movement for a decade. You lose credibility in opposing Black favoritism this way. However I believe that every ethnic group has a right to intergroup preference and if Whites chose to favor their own they would have a right to provided they don't deny Blacks the right to secede and have their own communities/countries. But as long as Whites and Blacks live together, we shouldn't advocate any favoritism.
Maybe ironically just as many gay men say they are f****ts. Society calls them that so they accept it. But I doubt they accept the moral premise that their views are immoral which this term implies.
A rightful reaction to unfairness to Whites in our society.
The term racist is like a term "heretic". What you've said is "Do you think it's possible to be a heretic, but then deny that you're a heretic?". It's a totally irrelevant question, because people you are debating don't believe in the premises that a term like "heretic" or "racist" is even a legitimate thing. If you think I or someone else is being unfair to Blacks, say "You're being unfair to Blacks and here's why". Don't use thought stoppers like "racism".
If I was an Islamic fundamentalist and accused you of being an "Infidel", would you be interested in debating me? Probably not. But if I sad, "Your views are unfair to Islam and Muslims" suddenly you would become curious and ask me "why?". The term "racist" does nothing but appeal to the Overton window which is a logical fallacy. Tell me how am I being unfair to Blacks.
"Infidel" is a loaded term rooted in religious presuppositions about the world. Racism is not.
I didn't call you a racist. Nor did I necessarily say that calling someone you suspect is a racist of being a racist is necessarily a good conversational tactic. I asked you if it is possible to hold racist attitudes (ie: belief that one race is superior to another, generalisations against other races) whilst denying that one is a racist.
""Infidel" is a loaded term rooted in religious presuppositions about the world. Racism is not."
It is. The only difference is that different people are in power in America than in Muslim countries. People that tailor the window of acceptable positions. In Muslim countries, "infidel" is the same as "racist"
Of course it's possible that people who hold views about race outside of Overton window deny that they hold them because they don't want to be punished by society for holding them. Just like people in the Soviet Union denied being "counter revolutionaries" because they didn't want to be sent to the Gulag. What people think privately and say publicly are two different things (which is a good argument that our mainstream culture towards race is far from ideal). That does not prove their views are wrong any more than atheists in Muslim countries are being proven wrong for being called "infidels".
1. How am I (or Nick Fuentes) unfair to Blacks?
2. It it possible to be a "racist" without being unfair to Blacks, and if yes, what is wrong with being a "racist" if one isn't unfair to Blacks?
Seems to me you are deflecting. This is an extremely simple question and if "racism" is really as evil as the left makes it to be, there should be plenty of examples. Also you didn't answer my second question: You said one can still be a "racist" if one isn't unfair to Blacks. What is wrong with being a "racist" if one isn't unfair to Blacks?
>Seems to me you are deflecting. This is an extremely simple question and if "racism" is really as evil as the left makes it to be, there should be plenty of examples.
What would you accept as racist comments towards black people?
>You said one can still be a "racist" if one isn't unfair to Blacks. What is wrong with being a "racist" if one isn't unfair to Blacks?
I happen to think making unpleasant comments about someone, or proposing discriminatory policy because of their racial background is wrong regardless of the person's race.
"What would you accept as racist comments towards black people?"
I don't think "racism" should be a word. Irrational views towards race and unfair to a given race. Not any word calling views heresy.
"I happen to think making unpleasant comments about someone, or proposing discriminatory policy because of their racial background is wrong regardless of the person's race."
That is unfairness. (depending on the situation). You said it's possible to be a "racist" without being unfair.
>I don't think "racism" should be a word. Irrational views towards race and unfair to a given race. Not any word calling views heresy.
That's nice. You're in a big minority here and you just simply have to deal with it. I'm not interested in an utterly pointless debate about semantics.
Whether we call it "unfair" or "racism" doesn't matter at all.
>You said it's possible to be a "racist" without being unfair.
No, I said it was possible to be a racist without being a racist to black people.
That's not a counter argument to my point. Semantics is what matters because words subconsciously guide human thought processes without people realizing. It matters a lot if we call it "racism" or "unfair", because if you call views "unfair" you have to show how they are indeed unfair. When you call them "racist" all you have to do is appeal to the Overton window and automatically win. It's a catch 22.
You aren't arguing that prejudice against someone on the basis of their ethnic background doesn't exist, you're arguing that we should use "racist" to shorthand refer to someone who does it.
"Racism" is simply a descriptive term that refers to someone who holds those terms. You've already agreed in principle that it is possible to hold discriminatory and prejudicial views against people because of their racial background. Ergo we call people who do this.. racist.
But you haven't responded to my main argument why we shouldn't use the term "racism". By using it, we can stigmatize views that are not unfair (and thus immoral) which can have devastating consequences. A good example is immigration policy in Western countries which are destroying the West.
No sane person would argue that a Serb cannot be irrationally hateful towards a Croat or a Japanese towards a Chinese. That is not an argument that there aren't important differences between groups and that we should pretend that there are non even if doing so is detrimental.
>But you haven't responded to my main argument why we shouldn't use the term "racism". By using it, we can stigmatize views that are not unfair (and thus immoral) which can have devastating consequences.
What views are stigmatised by using the term "racism"? You haven't even provided a single example of a viewpoint that is stigmatised in this way.
People can be unfairly called racist. That does not mean other people cannot be called racist fairly. As I said: the term is descriptive. It's shorthand. You are essentially complaining about how language works. It's bizarre.
By your logic any descriptive term that could be used as a way to shame or misrepresent someone's position should be discarded with: Communist, fascist, liberal, conservative, reactionary, etc.
What views are stigmatized by using the term "racism"? You haven't even provided a single example of a viewpoint that is stigmatized in this way.
Yes I have. Immigration. But I have an even better one. How about test scores. Those are also being called racist today.

No. My issue isn't people falsely being called racist. My issue is the term "racist" dishonestly labelling perfectly fair views are immoral. You just keep dodging my main argument and straw manning me.
Descriptive term eh? Heretic is also a descriptive term. I'll even throw one right wing one for you which I never use despite being a right winger: "Degenerate". Those are all "descriptive" terms but they are dishonest propagandistic thought stoppers. They are a source of confusion, not clarity. They are the enemies of critical thinking. Examples you gave are different. Real communists don't deny that they're communists and don't have a problem with this term. The same with fascists. They also have clearer definition. On the other hand nobody calls himself "racist" because the term implies unfairness. The term racist is just like the term "degenerate". It doesn't have a clear definition meaning it can be used on almost anything (that's why math today is called racist) and implies someone is being immoral without having to show why or how he's immoral.

I have never called anyone racist purely for objecting to immigration rates. Sure, some have, but at the same time that doesn't inherently devalue the "racist" descriptor.

I also used the term fascist, reactionary, conservative etc. Plenty of people take issue with being described in such a way despite holding positions that would fairly make them describable as such.
And "communism" is absolutely lobbed out absurdly and unfairly regardless of many communists openly endorsing it as a valid descriptor for them. Kamala Harris is obviously not a communist but is called one repeatedly.

It is widely accepted not just among the left but in our general culture that favoring certain ethnic groups over others in immigration is "racist". Yet I bet you a million bucks you can't win a debate that it is inherently unfair because no country owes any ethnic group the right to immigrate. It's even easier to argue it's fair because it would be better for the country and more fair to the indigenous ethnic groups or groups that built the country. When a word gets away with labeling something unfair when it isn't, the word is inherently deceptive and should stop being used. The purpose of words is to be tools for thinking. When a word is a source of confusion and inhibits thoughts rather than stimulating it, it's not a good word. It only serves as a tool for people who are currently in power. Just like the term "blasphemy", "counter revolutionary" and "degeneracy".

I said no true communist or fascist takes issue with being labelled as such. Kamala is a socialist or a social democrat, but gets called Communist by the right just like Trump is a conservative but gets called a fascist or Nazi by the left. Ever wondered why the term "racialist" doesn't have the same stigma as the term "racist"? It essentially means the same thing. I would have no problem calling myself a racialist, but I do have a problem calling myself a "racist". The former doesn't imply unfairness the latter does. I can easily defend my views on race from being unfair, but I can't defend them from the label "racist" because all that is needed to justify the latter is the Overton window appeal (which is a logical fallacy, but people don't know that) .

Favouring a particular ethnic group might be considered racist (and I would argue it can be easily based on racist presuppositions), but simply reducing the overall number is not considered racist.

No. By this logic many wards should be discarded because they're used inaccurately.

There is nothing unfair favoring certain ethnic groups over others because no country owes any ethnic group the right to immigrate.

Essentially yes, but my point is that as long as a term like "racism" exists, perfectly fair and moral positions will be able to be labelled as unfair because it is a term without a specific definition. The term "racist" implies that taking race into consideration when deciding policy and attitude is always irrational and unfair when it isn't. I don't deny that people can have irrational prejudice against others because of their ethnicity, but a term "racist" shouldn't be used. A better term would be something like "unwarranted tribalism". This way you could still condem someone for being irrational and unfair, but you would still have to show how his tribalism is indeed unwarranted in a given situation. For example there was recently an incident when a White woman was condemned as "racist" when she refused to let an unknown Black man in her building in the middle of the night when he said he lost his key. This is totally crazy.

I already explained. Because "a racist" implies unfairness, racialist doesn't.

I'm the person being referenced. You are correct: I reject the legitimacy of the term 'racist.' However, I've chosen to embrace the label because I'm tired of being on the defensive and pretending to care.
The reason I'm labeled a racist is that I am a race realist. The data is undeniable—blacks have lower IQs and consistently fail to create functioning societies. Even when given a stable society, they eventually destroy it when left to their own devices. This has been demonstrated repeatedly, but leftists either make excuses or outright deny it, gaslighting anyone who points it out.
I also support segregation. If we must live in the same country, segregation is necessary. Ideally, though, I believe we shouldn't be in the same country at all. After much thought, I’ve concluded that multicultural societies cannot work. They will never achieve the level of social cohesion needed for a high-trust society.
For these reasons, among others, I support the mass deportation of non-Whites from the West. If this doesn't happen soon, it will inevitably lead to ethnic cleansing as Whites become minorities in their own countries and continue to be persecuted as they are now.
It's because of these views that I'm called a racist. I no longer care, so I accept the label. I am a racist, a White supremacist, a sexist, a homophobe, a transphobe, and every other 'phobe' and '-ist' out there.
There are countless examples across Twitter and in the media—feel free to investigate for yourself. I'm too lazy to do the research for you. I find it rather questionable that you're unaware of the numerous instances where White people have been targeted in the West. Even your own government in the U.K. has been complicit, as seen during the recent riots. Individuals were arrested simply for posting content that supported White people—content that was harmless, yet was branded as hate speech.
> And what happens to all the mixed people in the west?
They have to leave. Deported. Mud Sharks and Coal burners have to go too.
I'm aware of the many different issues (and many that impact non-white people too negatively), but governments are not implementing legislation directly designed to persecute white people.
>Even your own government in the U.K. has been complicit, as seen during the recent riots.
You mean arresting people for rioting?
>Individuals were arrested simply for posting content that supported White people—content that was harmless, yet was branded as hate speech.
Examples please. Because many of these claims are outright lies.
>They have to leave. Deported. Mud Sharks and Coal burners have to go too.
And to where will they go? What constitutes being too mixed to not be white? How far back are you going here?
And there's no support for this. Remember how I told you that you would be seen as evil as an Iranian Mullah in the UK.
>What constitutes being too mixed to not be white? How far back are you going here?
If they don't look White they have to go.
>And there's no support for this. Remember how I told you that you would be seen as evil as an Iranian Mullah in the UK.
First, I don't care. Second, I believe things will change, and support will continue to grow. Third, I don't trust your judgment. I don't think you're truly aware of what's happening in your own country or how people actually feel. I suspect there's far more support than you realize, but it's hidden from plain view. So, there's no data. But if you're only willing to believe mainstream data, then you'll remain blind to what's really unfolding around you.
>First, I don't care. Second, I believe things will change, and support will continue to grow.
Based on what? The UK is prominently concerned specifically about the corrosive influence of Islam. Your emphasis on black people has little relevance here.
> Third, I don't trust your judgment. I don't think you're truly aware of what's happening in your own country or how people actually feel.
And you claim this based on what? You have no data. You know nothing about here.
You hate the western world.
I await examples of these arrests you're talking about.
>There is nothing unfair favoring certain ethnic groups over others because no country owes any ethnic group the right to immigrate.
And no country, no western democracy is controlled by a specific ethnic group. When you reject the right of a specific ethnic group to settle or work in your country you are effectively saying that ethnic group has immutable characteristics that are negative. It absolutely is rooted in racial prejudice.
>Also even just reducing overall numbers is considered racist by the left, so you are wrong.
No. The left is not a uniform bloc that all thinks the same thing. You are wrong.
>Everything is considered "racist" today because the term isn't clearly defined. If we used the term "unfair" this couldn't happen.
And everything is considered "unfair" and thus by your logic "unfair" should be discarded.
>I don't know what you mean by ward in this context. English is not my fist language.
I meant *words*. Typo: By this logic many wards should be discarded because they're used inaccurately.
And the irony here, you're dictating to English people how they should use their language.
>Essentially yes, but my point is that as long as a term like "racism" exists, perfectly fair and moral positions will be able to be labelled as unfair because it is a term without a specific definition.
I don't know why you're focusing so much specifically on the term "racism". With or without it people would be viewed negatively. "Racism" is just a shorthand descriptor people use to describe someone who they believe has racial prejudice.
> The term "racist" implies that taking race into consideration when deciding policy and attitude is always irrational and unfair when it isn't.
No, it doesn't. It has negative connotations of use, but that's because racial prejudice in western society is generally frowned upon.
> I don't deny that people can have irrational prejudice against others because of their ethnicity, but a term "racist" shouldn't be used.
Gunna be honest mate, it's not your language. It's apparently your second language. Yet you're presuming to dictate to english-speaking natives how our language is and has developed and what words are used.
Racism is the term used to refer to people who have prejudice against others because of their ethnic background. A term will always exist for it regardless of it being 'racist' or something else.
>A better term would be something like "unwarranted tribalism".
That would be xenophobia.
> This way you could still condem someone for being irrational and unfair, but you would still have to show how his tribalism is indeed unwarranted in a given situation.

No, that is 100% fundamentally racist. Her response was rooted in racial stereotypes.
It isn't "prejudice" if the data shows some ethnic groups do better than others. It's posjudice. If the data shows differences it's actually unfair to citizens to import bad behaving ethinc groups. Even if all ethnic groups behaved equally, no country owes anyone the right to immigrate so preventing them isn't unfair.
The left is not a uniform bloc that all thinks the same thing. You are wrong.
It is considered "racist" by the large chunk of the left if not majority. My argument that the term "racist" is a thought stopper does not depend on all leftist thinking the same.
And everything is considered "unfair" and thus by your logic "unfair" should be discarded.
What? No, not everything is considered unfair. When you actually make the claim that something is unfair, you have to show how it's unfair. You stimulate critical thinking. By saying "racist" or taboo you just appeal to the manipulated Overton window.
By this logic many words should be discarded because they're used inaccurately.
It isn't just the the word "racist" is used inaccurately. The entire word is unjustified since it implies that taking race into consideration is always unjustified in every situation. It also implies that there are no differences between he raeces. Both those are wrong. Please give me examples of other words being used inaccurately and we can discuss if the analogy is fair.

It's considered racist by most of contemporary society to reject the application of someone purely because of their racial background.

I will rephrase: Some people will call things unfair that you do not think are unfair. Ergo by your logic "unfair" should be discarded.

It doesn't at all. You are reading meanings into a word that aren't there.
It's considered racist by most of contemporary society to reject the application of someone purely because of their racial background.
That's precisely my point. It's considered "racist" yet you can't prove to me that it's either irrational or unfair. There are good practical reasons to favor some ethnic groups over others and no country owes the right to immigrate to any other country.
I will rephrase: Some people will call things unfair that you do not think are unfair. Ergo by your logic "unfair" should be discarded.
Exactly. If they call them unfair when I disagree, I can dispute it. When they call it "racist" I can't dispute it since its seen as "racist" by society. They automatically win. I'm baffled that you still pretend you don't see the problem with this term.

Arguments are the same.

Because it's not the common term of reference. Languages are built on consensus on what words mean. "Unwarranted tribalist" doesn't have such, and nor does it even get to the nub of identifying specific forms of prejudice.
>Yes, both of those (test scores and AI) ARE called racist despite the fact they are neutral. Still don't see the problem with term "racism"?
I don't recall calling test scores or AI racist (unless its specifically designed to be prejudice rather than incidentally so).
Yes you can. You can dispute anything you're accused of. They don't "automatically win".
Denying something like a child is not an argument. I cannot defend national immigration origin quotas for example from being "racist" since they are seen as "racist" by mainstream society just like I can't defend my views from being "blasphemy" from an Islamist. But I can defend them from being irrational and unfair. When you label your accusation "unfair" instead of racist, it puts it in the entirely different light and the conversation goes in the entirely different direction. Word we use matter because they subconsciously direct our thought processes without us even realizing it.

This is not an argument about why "unwarranted tribalist" is not a good term. Give me an example of a legit grievance that could not be condemned using "unwarranted tribalist". How does "unwarranted tribalist" fail to identify specific forms of prejudice? Consensus comes from people who have power in society and they have their own agendas and prejudices. Before the 1960s the consensus was there was no "racism".

If "racist" didn't exist as a term, another term would be used instead that would inherit all of the negative connotations of "racist". You cannot get away from this.
>This is not an argument about why "unwarranted tribalist" is not a good term. Give me an example of a legit grievance that could not be condemned using "unwarranted tribalist".
"Unwarranted tribalist" is just a wordy way of saying "bigoted". It's an umbrella term. And again, in an alternative reality being labeled "unwarranted tribalist" could be just the same, just as impactful now as being called a racist.
>Consensus comes from people who have power in society and they have their own agendas and prejudices. Before the 1960s the consensus was there was no "racism".

Okay. So argue against it when people do that. I have no idea how tilting at windmills and trying to make an oft-used word non-existent is somehow going to achieve that.

Telling someone to F.O is not winning an argument. You can disagree, but as long as the audience respects the term "racist" you will be seen as losing the argument.

There's no argument needed to be made. You didn't justify the premise. If someone calls you racist, you can object just like you can anything else. The power that the allegation of racism has depends on where wider society is in relation to whatever you did or said.

There are many times where "racist" doesn't fly either, or has limited impact. The same goes for any term. But if 'racism' didn't exist, the scope for 'unwarranted tribalist' would increase.

Right. And this impacts language. We as a culture and society have changed. So what?

No, they don't. No reason to believe that all leftists do this. No reason to believe it's a common thing at all. And are you of the opinion that if the term 'racist' didn't exist then somehow the impulse to shame people for their ethnic heritage from certain people would not exist?
The power that the allegation of racism has depends on where wider society is in relation to whatever you did or said.
And what I'm saying is that the power of the word racist comes from the fact that it isn't precisely defined. "Unwarranted tribalist" is more precise and wouldn't have this ambiguity and thus abuse.
Someone has not automatically won an argument just because they call you "blasphemous" or racist.
He is as long as "blasphemy" or "racism" is respected word and what you are arguing is considered "racist" or "blasphemous" in society.

Blasphemy isn't a respected word. It is based around religious presuppositions. It's well understood, but no-one cares about it.

I haven't seen anyone call data "racist". You have provided zero evidence that people actually do this.
>It would fly even less if we used more precise and less subjective terms.
No reason to believe "unwarranted tribalist" is somehow more precise than racist, nor inherently less subjective. I'd argue it is much broader than racist, as it could be used to denote unjustified (or perceived unjustified) objection to a variety of characteristics beyond race.
>You just asserted that without evidence. I don't think such a specific term could be used so widely.
And I have no reason to believe it wouldn't. Ergo, we are at an impasse.
>So even you admit that practical use of "racism" expanded over time yet you still can't see the problem with the term?
No, because society was genuinely much more prejudiced against people based on their race in the 1950s.
>Leftist who control the media academia think so. My argument doesn't depend on all leftist thinking the same.
"There's no reason to believe that "unwarranted tribalist" could not fall into the same trappings that you believe racist falls into. People could easily accuse someone of being an "unwarranted tribalist" for the same reasons they accuse people of being racist now."
I don't think so.
"Blasphemy isn't a respected word. It is based around religious presuppositions. It's well understood, but no-one cares about it."
It is respected in Islamic world just like racism is respected in Western world. It's exactly the same.
"I haven't seen anyone call data "racist". You have provided zero evidence that people actually do this."
Search yourself for racist AI or racist test scores. It's a common talking point from the left.
"No reason to believe "unwarranted tribalist" is somehow more precise than racist, nor inherently less subjective. I'd argue it is much broader than racist, as it could be used to denote unjustified (or perceived unjustified) objection to a variety of characteristics beyond race."
I would say it's less subjective.
"No, because society was genuinely much more prejudiced against people based on their race in the 1950s."
That's not the point. The practical definition changed which shows you the ambiguity of the term.
So your argument here is essentially "just trust me bro".
>It is respected in Islamic world just like racism is respected in Western world. It's exactly the same.
We don't live in the Islamic world.
>Search yourself for racist AI or racist test scores. It's a common talking point from the left.
I'll comment on direct examples. Some of the left might argue that tests are designed in some way to disenfranchise or be harder for people of specific socioeconomic backgrounds, but that's not quite the same thing.
>I would say it's less subjective.
"Just trust me bro"
>That's not the point. The practical definition changed which shows you the ambiguity of the term.
No, we simply consider some attitudes then racist now. Many descriptive terms have developed over the years.

So no argument then. Waiting for all these definitions.
"So your argument here is essentially "just trust me bro"."
No, I'm just tired of arguing with you. We're going in circles.
"We don't live in the Islamic world."
That's not the point. "Blasphemy" in Islam is the same as "racism" in West.

Even if they were, it sill wouldn't make them deliberately prejudiced. If it's just SES, why call them racist, but not SES-ist?
"Just trust me bro"
Your argument as well. It seems we're both tired by now
"No, we simply consider some attitudes then racist now. Many descriptive terms have developed over the years."
No, Blacks failed despite given not only equality but privileges. Instead of admitting they might not be equal, liberals doubled down and expanded their definition of "racism".
"So no argument then. Waiting for all these definitions."
>That's not the point. "Blasphemy" in Islam is the same as "racism" in West.
Sure. But blasphemy actually isn't that subjective. We just don't care about it in the west. It's a poor example.
>Even if they were, it sill wouldn't make them deliberately prejudiced. If it's just SES, why call them racist, but not SES-ist?
Because specific racist groups are overrepresented in particular classes.
>No, Blacks failed despite given not only equality but privileges. Instead of admitting they might not be equal, liberals doubled down and expanded their definition of "racism".
Sorry, are you of the opinion that black people, collectively, should "admit" that they're somehow not equal?
And despite unfair practices like affirmative action, black people are still disproportionately born into poverty in the USA.
Sure. But blasphemy actually isn't that subjective. We just don't care about it in the west. It's a poor example.
It's not a poor example. "Racism" in the West is just as taboo as "blasphemy" in Islam. "Blasphemy" is used to silence critics of Islam and "racism" is use to silence critics of multiracialism, demographic replacement and unproven racial equality.
Because specific racist groups are overrepresented in particular classes.
What are you referring to? Any evidence that people who hate Blacks wrote tests?
Sorry, are you of the opinion that black people, collectively, should "admit" that they're somehow not equal?
Society should admit that the failure to reach equality 60 years after civil rights and affirmative action is due to Blacks not Whites. This is obvious.

But neither are massively subjective. That's my point.
And whether or not "racism" suddenly dropped out of usage in English or not would not stop people "silencing critics" in the way you say that they currently do.
>What are you referring to? Any evidence that people who hate Blacks wrote tests?
Sorry, that was an error: Specific *racial groups* are overrepresented in particular classes. Specific racial groups are more likely born into poverty.

That's not what I asked you: Are you saying black people, collectively, should 'admit' that they are not equal to white people?
>Bingo!
"Bingo" what? Poverty is one of the biggest predictors of criminality.
But neither are massively subjective. That's my point.
How is racism not subjective if you yourself conceded that the definition of it changed severely over time? If "racism" wasn't subjective, White women who don't let in their building strange young Black men in the middle of the night wouldn't be called racist.
And whether or not "racism" suddenly dropped out of usage in English or not would not stop people "silencing critics" in the way you say that they currently do.
That's your personal opinion. I think if the term would be replaced by something with a more clear definition like I propose, it would effect in what situations people use it. Today every law or rule that produces disparate racial outcome is called "racist". It's difficult to call Fare evasion rules "unwarrantedly tribalistic" if they happen to affect more Blacks since Blacks are more likely to do it.
Specific racial groups are more likely born into poverty.
Yes but that does not mean tests are biased against Blacks. That would be like saying tests are biased in favor of Jews and Indians since Jews and Indians are rich. Nobody is saying that.
That's not what I asked you: Are you saying black people, collectively, should 'admit' that they are not equal to white people?
Equal in what respect? They should admit their failure to reach equality is due to themselves.
"Bingo" what? Poverty is one of the biggest predictors of criminality.
>How is racism not subjective if you yourself conceded that the definition of it changed severely over time?
No, prejudical behaviour considered normal, acceptable slowly eroded to not being considered so. Such as blackface, for instance. It was already racist.
>Yes but that does not mean tests are biased against Blacks. That would be like saying tests are biased in favor of Jews and Indians since Jews and Indians are rich. Nobody is saying that.
Yes, I made a typing error. What I meant was that black people being more inclined to poverty and worse educational outcome makes it more likely they'll fall into a life of crime.
>Equal in what respect? They should admit their failure to reach equality is due to themselves.
You still haven't answered. Are you suggesting black people, as a bloc (as if someone is able to speak for them uniformly) should "admit" that they are a problem?
>No, race is.
In most societies, specific races are more likely to be represented at the lower end of the poverty pyramid.
Such as blackface, for instance. It was already racist.
No it wasn't. It is considered "racist" today by you raised in modern culture. What is "racist" is relative. If this was the 1970s or 1960s it is doubtful weather you would consider black face "racist".
Nobody was saying all White people were "racist" several decades ago. Today it is a common talking point of the leftists.
black people being more inclined to poverty and worse educational outcome makes it more likely they'll fall into a life of crime.
Blacks commit more crime even controlling for poverty, and even if they didn't it wouldn't prove that both their poverty and crime isn't' caused by their genes.
Are you suggesting black people, as a bloc (as if someone is able to speak for them uniformly) should "admit" that they are a problem?
Yes, they should admit their culture is the problem like mainstream Black conservatives admit it.
In most societies, specific races are more likely to be represented at the lower end of the poverty pyramid.
Exactly, there is basically no society where all ethnic groups perform at the same level. Yet according ot the left, racial inequality in America should be seen as an outrage.

It was a (is a) caricature of black people denigrating them down to a sideshow and drawing upon stereotypes about them. It is very much rooted in racial presuppositions and assertions about them.
>Nobody was saying all White people were "racist" several decades ago. Today it is a common talking point of the leftists.
I assume you'll have actual data about this.
>Blacks commit more crime even controlling for poverty, and even if they didn't it wouldn't prove that both their poverty and crime isn't' caused by their genes.
Still waiting for data on this. And how would the absence of such data somehow mean that their genes must cause their supposed inclination towards crime?
>Yes, they should admit their culture is the problem like mainstream Black conservatives admit it.
What mainstream black conservatives admit that its due to their GENES. Some complain about contemporary culture. That's not the same thing.
>Exactly, there is basically no society where all ethnic groups perform at the same level. Yet according ot the left, racial inequality in America should be seen as an outrage.
The left, as a bloc, if you're being generalised see many forms of inequality as an outrage - not just racial.
It is very much rooted in racial presuppositions and assertions about them.
How do you know it's presuppositions and not actual truth about them? In any case you haven't responded to my argument that "racist" is a subjective term.

I didn't say prove, I said It wouldn't prove otherwise.

Black conservatives don't talk about genes. They only talk about culture. IM0 both are true, but the culture thing should be admitted by Blacks because it's more obviously true, the genes thing is harder to prove.
The left, as a bloc, if you're being generalised see many forms of inequality as an outrage - not just racial.
That is true, they do and even other forms of inequality are not justified in being outraged about since we know some people are more capable than others. But racial is especially sinful to them as well as gender inequality even though no country in the world has it. They are simply irrational.
>How do you know it's presuppositions and not actual truth about them? In any case you haven't responded to my argument that "racist" is a subjective term.
Exactly what truth does minstrel makeup show about black people?
That's not evidence of racism being used to call all white people such. Just that its used more in literature.
>Black conservatives don't talk about genes. They only talk about culture. IM0 both are true, but the culture thing should be admitted by Blacks because it's more obviously true, the genes thing is harder to prove.
Right, and you are insisting that admit they are genetically inferior. As if someone can somehow talk on behalf of a race anyway.
Exactly what truth does minstrel makeup show about black people?
That they tend to be less intelligent, more impulsive, have more frequent mood swings, more violent, more unrestrained, more sexually promiscuous, lazier...etc. Those "stereotypes" arose for a reason (why weren't Chinese stereotyped that way?) and were never disproven.
Right, and you are insisting that admit they are genetically inferior
I never said that. I said the genetic hypothesis should not be suppressed like it is now and should be seriously considered. And certain policies (immigration, racial favoritism, diversification...etc) shouldn't be implemented unless the theory is disproven. Also White nationalists don't deny Whites are genetically inferior with regards to intelligence relative to East Asians.
>That they tend to be less intelligent, more impulsive, have more frequent mood swings, more violent, more unrestrained, more sexually promiscuous, lazier...etc. Those "stereotypes" arose for a reason (why weren't Chinese stereotyped that way?) and were never disproven.
How does one 'disprove' such claims? They're completely unfalsifiable. Especially concepts such as impulsivity, mood-swings, promisciousity, laziness.
Are you suggesting minstrel performances should become socially acceptable again, and it should socially acceptable to demean black people like that?
How does one 'disprove' such claims? They're completely unfalsifiable. Especially concepts such as impulsivity, mood-swings, promisciousity, laziness.
One can measure psychological traits, psychologists do it all the time. Promiscuity is measured by sexual partners, laziness by volunteer work, etc

If a given ethnic group in society behave significantly worse, then the other groups have every right to dislike that and to call out that behavior by making fun of it. Liberals make fun of redneck culture all the time even though it's arguably less problematic than Black culture.
By the way, have you looked at any criticisms, and there are many of the phenomenon of scientific racism?
"Scientific racism" is just a smear term for racial science liberals don't like. They don't like the truth so they come up with a term to discredit entire field of science. Modern egalitarian society HAS TO LIE about race differences because it dreads it's political consequences. The same way people critical of Lysenkosim in the Soviet Union were persecuted.
Who are these white nationalists that claim this regarding East Asians?
Mainstream WN like David Duke, Jared Taylor, Richard Spencer all acknowledge East Asians are smarter than Whites.

"Minstrel" isn't a culture. Redneck is a culture. It also doesn't deliberately disparage all white people, as being a redneck is a subculture prominently populated by white people. The comparison here would be making fun of hip-hop urban subculture, or something. Not minstrel performances.

That's not what I asked you. Have you actually read any documentation against your position whatsoever?
What? So you can only measure a trait on an individual level but can't on an ethnic one? I guess we can't have any average height data by ethnicity or race.
"Minstrel" isn't a culture.
You brought up minstrel. Black have their own culture which is easily arguable to be worse than White culture. If it's a burden on others, parody and condemnation is warranted

It does all Southerners and rural Whites.

Ignore Skava’s latest low-blow of insulting your English, David. Your English writing is leagues better than Skavau’s and your arguments actually make sense, unlike his.
I've read them. I know you're too stupid to actually articulate anything about my positions.
And I didn't insult his english, I suggested he was trying to dictate to english people how we should use words, and also imposing his own interpretation of a words meaning onto its actual usage.
No, it doesn't. It has negative connotations of use, but that's because racial prejudice in western society is generally frowned upon.
I've already shown how perfectly rational postjudice is labelled "racist". A taxi driver isn't "prejudiced" to pick up a Black customer if he is correct to assume Blacks are more likely to mug him. Yet he's called racist. If - as I propose - instead of racist he would be called "irrational", the argument wouldn't fly if the data shows Blacks are more dangerous.
It's apparently your second language.
So you used this ad hominem fallacy twice in your reply instead of addressing my argument. Suppose I never said English is not my first language? What would your response be?
Racism is the term used to refer to people who have prejudice against others because of their ethnic background. A term will always exist for it regardless of it being 'racist' or something else.
I already explained how it's not used only with prejudice but with postjudice as well. That's exactly what I propose. Something else. Irrational and unfair, unwarrantedly tribalistic. It exposes the same problems with a person's attitude, but doesn't thwart rational thought.
That would be xenophobia
No, xenophobia is the fear of the other or unknown. "Unwarranted tribalist" is a perfect word for someone irrationally favoring his ethnic group over others and being prejudiced.
No, that is 100% fundamentally racist. Her response was rooted in racial stereotypes.
No, It would be prejudice if her belief that Blacks are more dangerous wasn't supported by facts. Her safety and the safety of the building's residents are more important than inconveniencing someone. Also she would probably do the same to a White man, but in that case she never would be condemned despite just as well inconveniencing someone.

A taxi driver who did that would find his right to be a taxi driver under threat. It's incredibly important that all people in any society have general access to public services: banking, internet, housing, jobs, shops etc.
>So you used this ad hominem fallacy twice in your reply instead of addressing my argument. Suppose I never said English is not my first language? What would your response be?
I'm more noting your presumption that we should change our language to suit your ideals.
>No, xenophobia is the fear of the other or unknown. "Unwarranted tribalist" is a perfect word for someone irrationally favoring his ethnic group over others and being prejudiced.
"Xenophobia is the fear or dislike of anything that is perceived as foreign or strange. It can be based on the perception that there is a conflict between an in-group and something else."
Xenophobia is often the umbrella term. I see no reason why an "unwarranted tribalist" is not just a racist if their prejudice is rooted in the heritage of the other person.
>No, It would be prejudice if her belief that Blacks are more dangerous wasn't supported by facts. Her safety and the safety of the building's residents are more important than inconveniencing someone.

So should it be justifiable for every business, every service provider, every job, everything offering housing to specifically reject access to their service based on the person's race? Should that be enshrined in law?
A taxi driver who did that would find his right to be a taxi driver under threat. It's incredibly important that all people in any society have general access to public services: banking, internet, housing, jobs, shops etc.
You're right that one could argue that a taxi driver has an obligation to pick up customers of all races because he signed a contract do that and he accepted the risk is part of a job. But the allegation that he is "racist" still isn't warranted as long as data shows Blacks are more dangerous. "Racism" implies irrationality and this isn't the case. Also if a private taxi driver who works for himself doesn't pick Black customers he is also called racist despite the fact he has no obligation to his employer.
I'm more noting your presumption that we should change our language to suit your ideals.
Why should the ethnicity of someone matter when discussing that some terms do more harm than good to society? This is a typical example of an ad hominem fallacy. "Your argument is wrong, because you're not an American".
I see no reason why an "unwarranted tribalist" is not just a racist if their prejudice is rooted in the heritage of the other person.
Because with "racist" you don't have to show how one is being irrational or unfair. With "unwarranted tribalism" the "unwarranted" can be disputed depending on the situation. There is nothing unwarranted in a White person being on the side of his ethnic group if they are under attack. Yet a White is called "racist" for being on the side of his group, but a Black person is not.
So should it be justifiable for every business, every service provider, every job, everything offering housing to specifically reject access to their service based on the person's race? Should that be enshrined in law?

I am not shy. All others besides Whites. Blacks, Hispanics, Jews, Muslims...etc. When all others do it, it's healthy ethnic pride, when Whites do it it's "racism".
Naturally. But a little 'ethnic pride', and 'not celebrating' racial difference it seems, quickly goes a long way. Sometimes (eg for people like curiousMind101, just lately, on this site) it goes to "Until every non-White is purged from Europe and every race mixer is taken off the street" .
Even if this concern was legit, this doesn't mean Whites don't have a right to pride and identity just as others. If Whites don't acquire one, they will eventually disappear and the West will turn into mixture of Pakistan and Guatemala.
Not really since I am not projecting what will happen I was quoting what has actually just been said as an example of where, for some, they end up.

Your OP was to do with personal double standards, seeking individual examples. The point to be made here is that, while it leaves people open to criticism, there is no logical reason why a hypocrite cannot be right while I gave such examples. In terms of double standards in the legal system (in regards to the history of lynching of blacks), for instance then I 'would not celebrate' that at all. However I am in favour of positive discrimination. I also do not believe white men are in the disadvantage minority, and that white privilege exists.

And, aside from this, the recent hate riots in the UK (for instance) were the result of exactly that: misinformation online.
what does "vice versa mean"
Perhaps the wrong phrase. But is there any area of the USA you are barred from living in (apart from Govt restricted zones etc) as part of being a free country?
My full quote was "I asked for political double standards of WN in general, not example of every personal hypocrisy of every WN."
Check my recent post about the clear hypocrisy of those thousands who took part in the Capital insurrection.. and those camp followers who praised their action.
If you import millions of members of different ethnic groups and teach then that the original ethnic group oppresses them, it teaches hatred. Then the left has the audacity to complain about hate after teaching Blacks to hate Whites.
Unfortunately from what I have seen from the posts on this site. sometimes from those proud to be racist and others obsessed with racial purity and condemning diversity, the hate seems to be coming all from one side.
Name me an example of "institutional racism" against non Whites.
Distinguish for me so called "hate" and legit resentment resulting from bad behavior and how does what you desribe "hate" fall into the latter as opposed to the former. Riots in the UK were a resiult not of decades of mass immigration and ignoring the distatisfaction of the working class natives by the elite. They were completely justified.(unlike the George Floyd/BLM ones)
But is there any area of the USA you are barred from living
Neither I not any White person would have much problem with being barred from living in majority Black places of the country.
Capital insurrection
Capital trespassing is not a double standard of one's political beliefs which is what I asked for. What do WN demand for Whites that they don't grant for Blacks?
the hate seems to be coming all from one side.
You need to check far leftist and Black identatarian accounts on Twitter.
An opinion of someone who calls himself a "human rights expert" is not a scientific conclusion that CJS is biased against Blacks. In the US a recent meta analysis found that it isn't.
No you did not. Are Whites becoming a minority? Is there any plan to stop immigration once it reaches a certain percentage? How many examples of affluent and integrated Black/Muslim communities in Europe can you name?
Hate based on a non-scientific concept is not rational. Sorry
So concern about Europe becoming Islamic is just "hate obsessed" and "irrational"?

The courts when sentencing make no such distinction and so neither do I. However, as already mention this means that alleged black hatred towards whites, often condemned by you and your ilk can be partially excused.

You need to explain why it is a good thing to discriminate against poor minorities and deny them the freedoms other groups take for granted.

It is ironic for you to pick on integration issues when racism and discrimination are among the key determinants against it. But such communities are integrated to a certain extent in every community, it is all relative.

What evasion? If whites don't complain about being barred by Blacks, how do Blacks have a justified in complaining about being barred by Whites?
It is if one claims to be a patriot, supports the police and the rule of law.
The right to storm the capitol is not a general political stance of any of "far right" influencers like David Duke or Jared Taylor
not what the head of British police says.
What was the study and data behind his opinion? In any case even if discrimination against Blacks was real, it wouldn't be justified collective Black grievance, since Blacks as a hole commit more crime. Blacks would have to be more discriminated relative to their crime levels to be victims collectively which is what the leftist narrative is.
Is Replacement Theory alive and well?
Why avoiding my question? Are Whites becoming a minority? Is there any plan to stop immigration once it reaches a certain percentage? How is "replacement theory" unjustified it's happening?

White discrimination and privilege has been a burden on blacks since evermore.
If they were [UK riots] not a result of decades of mass immigration with no permission of the public
A simplistic view. For instance while there is some concern over immigration, it is widely accepted how reliant the UK is for immigrants to fill low paid jobs and in the social care sector and NH. If this was not the case the preceding Conservative government, democratically elected and so given permission to rule, would have slashed figures, not allowed them to rise.

Yes if you stab someone. I advocate political resentment expressed thought the ballot box
White discrimination and privilege has been a burden on blacks since evermore.
No it hasn't. If it had, Blacks would have demanded separation. Discrimination against Blacks was a result of their behavior (why wasn't discrimination against Asians so severe?) and even it wasn't, Whites don't owe anyone to not discriminate. If you don't like White behavior, don't live with them.
it is widely accepted how reliant the UK is for immigrants to fill low paid jobs and in the social care sector and NH.
No it's not "widely accepted". It's a desperate leftist talking point to deter legit resentment against minorities. Minorities tend to cost the government more than what they contribute.
"Existing evidence shows that public opinion is divided when it comes to migration.
End political correctness on behalf of the media in reporting minority crime and budgetary cost and see then. Also end school "anti racist" indoctrination.
is there any area of the USA you are barred from living?"
How is this evasion? Blacks also aren't barred. I propose no double standard. Both should be able to exclude.
They claim to be patriots and support the police, the constitution and rule of law.
Capitol trespassing was an INCIDENT, not a political position. And why am I even debating this? My OP clearly said name a double standard when it comes to RACE.
As already shown the UN also makes similar claims as have other bodies such as Barnardos etc.
Tell me about the study and the data behind it. Did it control for Black behavior? If not, it's not evidence of injustice against Blacks as a whole

Or take them to court if it illegal hatred. Discrimination is illegal in many cases, after all.

I see. Blacks were enslaved because of their bad behaviour? LOL
"it is widely accepted how reliant the UK is for immigrants " No it's not "widely accepted".
The UK's labor force is 1.5% larger due to higher immigration, which has contributed £40 billion to the GDP and £18 billion to tax revenues. The Office for Budget Responsibility forecasts that higher net migration will reduce pressure on government debt over time. The care sector has experienced significant staff shortages, particularly since the pandemic. In 2023, the Home Office granted 350,000 Health and Care visas, which is more than the number of skilled visas granted in other sectors. In fact Migration Advisory Committee reporting, for example, that ‘EEA migrants contribute much more to the health service and the provision of social care in financial resources and work than they consume in services’. According to most economic research, immigration generally provides a net positive benefit to the UK economy, with studies indicating that migrants contribute significantly to the UK's GDP through their labor force participation and tax payments, often outweighing the costs associated with public services they may use. I hope that helps.
The position that Whites "oppressed" Blacks historically is based on the false premise Whites owed Blacks inclusion. They didn't. No ethnic group owes any other ethnic group inclusion into their society.
I think they just wanted freedom and equality.
Wanting "equality" is a euphemism for wanting to leech off someone else. Nobody deserves "equality" with anyone. If you want wealth, build it yourself.
I see. Blacks were enslaved because of their bad behaviour? LOL
They were never "enslaved" by Whites. Whites BOUTHGT them from other Blacks who enslaved them. Had the latter not happened, they would have never been slaves. So it was a result of their behavior.
The UK's labor force is 1.5% larger due to higher immigration, which has contributed £40 billion to the GDP and £18 billion to tax revenues.
This is only one side of the coin which doesn't take into account the COST of immigrants. I have shown you evidence how much they cost the government. Blacks and Muslims in the UK are more likely to be unemployed, more likely to receive welfare and more likely to commit crime. The supposed benefit of immigration is only short term, long term they cost the country more. It's a giant Ponzi scheme. Britain has become addicted to immigration as a quick solution. And even if the country really needed immigration, it could still prefer immigrants from countries from which immigrants tend to behave better like China, India and Europe as opposed to Africa and Muslim countries. reply share

Inclusion into the well-meaning platitudes of things like liberty, brotherhood, that all men are created equal? That sort of inclusion? And do you not agree that whites have often oppressed blacks? Did not the US fight a civil war, and the UK pay massive reparations (to slave owners, naturally) to end it? This should be good.
Wanting "equality" is a euphemism for wanting to leech off someone else

Nobody deserves "equality" with anyone.
That's not what the Founding Fathers thought.
They were never "enslaved" by Whites. Whites BOUTHGT (sic) them from other Blacks who enslaved them.
I do enjoy a 'last stand' try with semantics. But it doesn't assuage the guilt. The whites were the principals, away from first capture, in the slave trade. And those negroes in the US were definitely enslaved, since those born to slaves were made into slaves themselves at birth.
Had the latter not happened, they would have never been slaves.
Evidence for this claim?
This is only one side of the coin which doesn't take into account the COST of immigrants.
According to most economic research, immigration generally has a positive overall benefit to the UK economy, with studies showing that immigrants often contribute more in taxes than they receive in public services, thus providing a net fiscal benefit to the country; they also help fill skills gaps in the workforce and maintain the working-age population. But thank you for your opinions.

Ethnic exclusion is not oppression. Denial of sovereignty is oppression. No ethnic group owes any other ethnic group "inclusion" into their society, especially if the other ethnic group tends to behave significantly worse and is a huge cost on them. The only thing they owe then is to leave them alone. All ethnic groups throughout history that believed they were oppressed sought to ESCAPE their alleged oppressors. Blacks and browns in Western countries are the only examples which whine about oppression but don't want to get away from their alleged oppressors, which is exactly how someone would behave if they wanted to leech off someone else.
So you don't want to be equal?
No, I don't want anyone to give me some of their stuff at their expense so that I could be "equal".
That's not what the Founding Fathers thought.
Yet those founding fathers (as well as almost everyone up until about 1965) agreed with me. It seems to me you misinterpret what they meant with "equality"
whites were the principals, away from first capture, in the slave trade.
They bought them at a time when slavery was seen as moral by basically everyone in the world. You could easily argue they had a right to own them at that time. It's funny how leftist prescribe to moral relativism with current behavior of Islamist societies and indigenous tribes, but with long past behavior of Whites in a totally different world, suddenly all that goes out the window.
Evidence for this claim?
Whites didn't capture slaves, they bought existing ones captured by Blacks. You could always claim Whites would have still captured them, but there is no reason to think so.
Not even if excluded from life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness? Or from equality in the legal, jobs markets?
All ethnic groups throughout history that believed they were oppressed sought to ESCAPE their alleged oppressors
Or change the system, in the US say with Lincoln's help. This is just a version of the 'why don't your lot just back home where you came from?' threat.

see my words just above. And on this board we are often told that whites are apparently the ones oppressed, being 'second class citizens in their own country' etc etc. So, off you go.

My point was that in the US and UK (for instance) using this observation is akin to telling those (often citizens) to 'go back where they came from'. One of the oldest racist comments. The counter argument is that the urge is both racist and can be illogical. Why don't you 'go back to europe'?

Racism is discrimination, based on the belief that one's own race is superior. Sending someone 'back home' is similarly immoral since it is inevitably based on the same reasons. That you can't tell the similarity is telling.
THEY complain about being oppressed. I
I have yet to see any one but whites complaining here about their loss of presumed privileges here and protesting about their supposed persecution.
[they're] a burden to you
as shown several times, many surveys show the financial effect of immigration is to the positive.
OK so White people are not on the demographic path to becoming a minority in Western countries?
As said before not everyone is so exercised about 'Replacement' or demographic change. Or 'racial purity', come to that.
So you think people who wrote that believed there are no differences between the races?
I believe in their ideal that all men are equal even if they contradicted their own ideals..
So you admit I they do as I said.
I believe that hatred towards any group should be called out. However one should recognise too that there are vexed and grey areas. It is that discrimination based on hatred and ideas of 'racial superiority' which are at the least acceptable end of the scale.
I am just pointing out double standards of leftists. Moral relativism for everyone except Whites.
Apartheid support was practical not idealistic since there have been no propositions for land separation. I can favor apartheid over disastrous Black rule (and even many Blacks themselves do), that doesn't mean I would favor apartheid over actually splitting the country and giving Blacks self rule. Also why are you changing the topic to past political positions instead of present ones which was logically implied in my OP?
Why are you changing what I said when you quote me? I said go back home in the context of them whining about unproven oppression after being given privileges in our countries. If I settle your house, behave like shit and then on top whine about you oppressing me, "then what are you doing here?" is a perfectly valid reply.
White grievances (becoming a minority without being asked, having all main institutions blame them, economic and crime cost...) are all valid unlike minority ones who get to live countries other people built at their expense, get privileges (DEI, AA) and still whine. Name me an example of undeserved "White privilege". I can name you plenty of examples of undeserved Black and brown privileges.
not everyone is so exercised about 'Replacement' or demographic change.
Another dodge.
They didn't contradict anything. They just worded it too ambiguously because they didn't know the future societal changes.
Seems to me you are angry at perfectly valid concerns stemming from bad behavior if it comes from so called protected groups.
In which case you would be exactly the sort of hypocrite which you have asked to see provided.
that doesn't mean I would favor apartheid over actually splitting the country and giving Blacks self rule.
Such hair-splitting does not absolve the basic hypocrisy of arguing against the self-determination of one ethnic group while insisting upon it for yourselves.
Also why are you changing the topic to past political positions instead of present ones which was logically implied in my OP?
See my post about the Proud Boys and their repugnant ilk. Also, there is no reason to think that attitudes to black self-determination will have ever changed.
I said go back home in the context of them whining
Why should someone have to leave, just because they have "legit grievances" - you know the sort you recognise in whites and which apparently can also be hatred?
White grievances (becoming a minority without being asked, having all main institutions blame them, economic and crime cost...) are all valid unlike minority ones who get to live countries other people built at their expense, get privileges (DEI, AA) and still whine.
Thank you for your opinion, Of course white people, with al their privileges, never whine lol

Just propaganda, I know. But then any example I could give I am sure would not be acceptable. Ironically, one example of white privilege is not having to think about white privilege.

As I read your month-long back-and-forth with David, I've noticed that underneath all your sophisticated rhetoric and intellectual posturing lies the same tired Woke brain rot. Strip away the pretentious language, and all you've got are the same recycled 'anti-racist' talking points about White privilege, systemic racism, White fragility, and White supremacy. It's the same nonsense we've all heard a thousand times. No matter how you try to frame your arguments, they ultimately reduce to a shallow, formulaic narrative designed to shame and silence any White people who dare to question the prevailing discourse on race relations.
It was merely an observation. This lengthy exchange between you and David has given me a clearer understanding of what you're all about, and I must admit, it's rather disappointing.
Were there 16 replies? I didn’t count. Yet, you’re the one who consistently chimes in on my posts, and I make it a point to respond to everyone as best as I can.
No since I favor SEPARATION instead of White rule. Again taking a statement out of context so that you can avoid the argument.
Where have I argued against the self determination of any other group? It's not hair splitting it it's one or the other.
Again I am not defending Proud Boys (I know little about them). They aren't explicitly White identatarian. They might be "fascists" and "anti Semites", but not White nationalists like Duke or Taylor - who I was taking about.
They came here voluntarily, they aren't satisfied and whine (even after all the privileges we give them but that's besides the point). In what universe is "Either be grateful and respect us or go back" not a valid reply?
I didn't say link me someone's opinion on the subject, I said list me an example of UNDESERVED White privilege. All those things I hear from articles like this are a result of behavior of different ethnic groups. Meaning they are deserved.
Let me ask you... can there be White privilege in an all White society? Obviously not. Now if there can't, what would Whites lose if they were to separate from non Whites? If you can't name one tangible important thing Whites would lose, then how can there be undeserved White privilege?
But then any example I could give I am sure would not be acceptable.
If you could list Whites have a right to X, but Blacks don't, then that would be an acceptable example. What is it? I can name you several example that Blacks have which Whites don't. The right to ethnic pride, the right to safe spaces, interest organizations etc.
Whites do not want superiority, they just want sovereignty, dignity and being held to the same standards and having same rights as non Whites like identity, pride, safe spaces, history...etc. In short, the right to collectivize.
No since I favor SEPARATION instead of White rule.
You are likely to be disappointed. Segregation (and apartheid) went out a while ago. But why don't you separate yourself from those large swathes of fellow citizens you don't care for? Might be easier..
Where have I argued against the self determination of any other group?
You mean like the determination of immigrants to start new lives and communities in another country?
Proud Boys (I know little about them). They aren't explicitly White identatarian.
If you know little then how do you know that? Trump: “I condemn all white supremacists, I condemn the Proud Boys."
In what universe is "Either be grateful and respect us or go back" not a valid reply?
Where it is an impractical and racist trope.
I said list me an example of UNDESERVED White privilege. All those things I hear from articles like this are a result of behavior of different ethnic groups. Meaning they are deserved.
For a white supremacist, every privilege is 'deserved'; for those not so lucky the judgment is different. I gave you the view of those who suffer through it and is all I can do in such subjective matters.
what would Whites lose if they were to separate from non Whites? If you can't name one tangible important thing Whites would lose, then how can there be undeserved White privilege?
They would lose all the benefits of equality and diversity. Let alone all those servants and the ethnics filling underpaid but essential jobs. Please see my earlier post which gives those benefits of diversity and equality in detail. One reason why apartheid collapsed, btw, was that they "could just not afford it anymore".
If you could list Whites have a right to X, but Blacks don't, then that would be an acceptable example. What is it?
"You mean like the determination of immigrants to start new lives and communities in another country?"
How is preventing them from taking over other people's countries (and giving them their own) taking their self determination?
Again completely ignoring the argument. I was never talking about the Proud Boys, but mainstream White nationalists like David Duke, Jared Taylor or Greg Johnson etc.
"For a white supremacist, every privilege is 'deserved"
No, that was not my argument. Read it again.
"They would lose all the benefits of equality and diversity".
How many TANGABLE benefits of so called diversity can you name? No idealism please. Those jobs could be easily (and what we know about IQ) even better be done by Whites.
Voter ID is not voted suppression. Blacks can get voted IDs just as easily as Whites. Name me an example of what basic right do Whites have, but Blacks don't. I can name you SEVERAL in the opposite direction: Identity, pride, safe spaces, interest organizations, history, nativism for their countries...etc
How is preventing them from taking over other people's countries..
Please see my previous comment on your employment of Replacement Theory, Also, we need immigrants to run our services in the UK, and help pay for the pensions of all the ageing white people. But have not Whites most clearly taken over other countries for their benefit, in the past? Also, demographic changes happens. Get over it.

Why are you changing the discussion from denial of sovereignty to something else? I made a valid point. Exclusion someone is not denying them sovereignty. You claimed I want to deny them sovereignty.
"Also, demographic changes happens. Get over it."
Tell that to any other group besides Whites and see how they react to it.
"Goalpost moving noted."
No, it's not. I clearly said White nationalists in my original challenge, not Proud Boys and every right wing movement.
"It is always your argument"
No, my argument was that if they behave better, they will inevitably be treated better. It's not unfair. Whites are a community, not just skin color. Good people of bad behaving ethnic groups should blame their bad behaving homies, not Whites who are forced to see race to protect themselves for bad Black behavior.
"But to help you out again:"
So a blog from an ideological website?
Also what kind of racial diversity? Asians, Indians or Backs? I don't oppose Asian immigration. We know Blacks and other minorities are hired at lower standards due to DEI so how can less qualified employees yield a better result? Also again just correlation and haven't you said correlation isn't the cause? Perhaps better companies are more worried about image and are therefor more likely to hire minorities? And even if Blacks would bring more productivity, that would be just one benefit (compared to more downsides like more crime, political problems, economic cost, less socail trust etc)

A report for Sweden estimated that the net tax cost for migrants and migrants' relatives amounts to an average of $10bn per year.
In Finland, the average Iraqi migrant (aged 20-24) costs €844k if they choose to have children, costing €1.27 million more than the average Finnish-born family
Worse still, a single Somali immigrant costs the Finnish state almost €1 million

Again, you are just reaching. But, since you ask, a 2019 Oxford Economics report found that migrants in the UK contributed more to the public purse than they took out over their lifetime.
But don't take that as evidence, rather embarrassingly for you, from your links, taking one at random:
"Native-born citizens will become bigger net beneficiaries of public expenditure than non-EU migrants,"
"If no measures are taken to improve the labour market integration of non-EU migrants, EU migrants will in the future be the only group providing a positive net contribution to government budgets"
"Better labour market opportunities for non-EU migrants would lead to large fiscal gains: if non-EU migrants were to have the same level of participation in the labour market as native-born citizens and EU migrants, they could generate considerable fiscal gains for their host countries."
"Our estimates for the overall immigrant population residing in the UK between 1995
and 2011 show that immigrants from EEA countries made a positive contribution over
that period of more than L4 billion, while those from non-EEA countries made a
negative contribution of L118 billion"
"EEA immigrants have not only consistently had a
higher revenues/expenditures ratio than natives but have often made positive fiscal
contributions even in years when the amount of public expenditure on natives has
been larger than natives’ fiscal payments. On the other hand, the fiscal contribution of
non-EEA immigrants is slightly negative in all years."
European immigrants made a contribution, non European ones a negative contribution. Very few British nationalists currently oppose German and French immigration.
"If no measures are taken to improve the labor market integration of non-EU migrants,
In other words, even they admit non EU migrants suck at economic contribution. They just assume they "lack opportunities" rather than being burdensome people.
All you have done is show a slight difference between the two groups, and as I have shown before, other surveys show a different assessment.
In 2017/18, non-EEA migrants' average net fiscal contribution was £310 above the national average. For instance an Oxford Economics study estimated that over the course of their whole lifecycle, the average non-EEA migrant arriving in 2016 would make a positive net fiscal contribution (of £28,000, net present value)
Meanwhile the overall benefit of immigration has been shown:
"Our findings show that immigrants to the UK who arrived since 2000, and for whom we observe their entire migration history, have made consistently positive fiscal contributions regardless of their area of origin. Between 2001 and 2011 recent immigrants from the A10 countries contributed to the fiscal system about 12% more than they took out, with a net fiscal contribution of about £5 billion."
By focusing so sternly on just one group of immigrants , when even your preferred link says they offer only "slightly negative" impact on the nations finances (so do white pensioners) your prejudices are unfortunately showing once again.
Why are you cherry picking single years? My previous quote was from all years from 1995 to 2011 while yours was only for 2017/18. When judging immigration and immigration from certain places, you have to take into consideration the long term contribution not just first generation immigrants. Blacks and Muslims in the UK are more likely to be on cash benefits and pay much less taxes. They are a burden.
Directly from the link you quoted:
First, the fiscal impact of EEA migrants is more positive than that of non-EEA migrants; and second, that the impact of recent migrants is more positive than the impact of migrants overall.
White immigrants are more beneficial than non White ones and the long term contribution of non Whites shows they take more and pay less taxes:
From the link you gave:
They were also estimated to receive more in family benefits and tax credits
A10 countries that your link says made a contribution are EUROPEAN countries LOL.
By focusing so sternly on just one group of immigrants , when even your preferred link says they offer only "slightly negative" impact on the nations finances (so do white pensioners) your prejudices are unfortunately showing once again.
Slightly negative is still negative, and non EEA also includes some European countries and also countries like China. Given the fact those countries have higher IQs than Africa and Middle East it suggests that only counting immigration from Blacks and Muslims would be even more negative.
The whole point of immigration is supposedly economic impact. If you compare them to WHTIE (EEA) immigrants they are MUCH more costly. Also they aren't yet so much of a burden since they are young and haven't retired yet. Everyone gets old. If we used this money we spend on Black welfare and Muslim child benefits to encourage natives to have more children, Whites being pensioners wouldn't be an issue.
Already answered, in that I can show that the net contribution to (the UK economy) of immigrants is a positive one. Migrants contribute around £83 billion annually to the UK's economic output " There are two points on which studies consistently agree. First, the fiscal impact of EEA migrants is yes, more positive than that of non-EEA migrants; and second, that the impact of recent migrants is more positive than the impact of migrants overall. But that does not mean non-EEA migrants of older arrival have a negative impact "https://migrationobservatory.ox.ac.uk/resources/briefings/the-fiscal-impact-of-immigration-in-the-uk/
Please stop. In future you will just be redirected to this 'the post'.
If we used this money we spend on Black welfare and Muslim child benefits to encourage natives to have more children, Whites being pensioners wouldn't be an issue.
But that does not mean non-EEA migrants of older arrival have a negative impact
No, it clearly says the non EEA migrants are a net negative.
Our estimates for the overall immigrant population residing in the UK between 1995
and 2011 show that immigrants from EEA countries made a positive contribution over
that period of more than L4 billion, while those from non-EEA countries made a
negative contribution of L118 billion
And non EEA includes most of Eastern Europe who are more likely a benefit compared to Africa and the Middle East so the Black and Muslim contribution is likely very negative.
"Regarding the net fiscal impact of immigrants, we find for our baseline scenario,
and considering the immigrant population that resided in the UK over the 1995–2011
period, that over a period during which the fiscal cost of natives cumulated to
£591 billion, EEA immigrants contributed 10% more than natives (in relative terms),
and non-EEA immigrant contributions were almost 9% lower. On the other hand,
recent immigrants, i.e. those who came after 1999, have made positive fiscal
contributions irrespective of origin.
As you are repeating the same old same old again now, in future please refer to this answer. I certainly will. reply share
"In addition, EEA migrants typically incur less public spending than either
natives or non-EEA migrants."
"With the net negative fiscal implications of non-EEA migrants being more than offset by the net positive implications of EEA migrants"
"In addition, the average non-EEA migrant receives more in benefit
payments than UK natives. With more dependent children, our estimates
suggest that migrants from outside the EEA receive more in family benefits and tax credits than natives. We also estimate that non-EEA migrants receive more than natives in housing benefits"
Also your quote is only for year 2016 which you conveniently hid. Cherry picking
So again your own quote says Europeans contribute more than non Europeans. EEA also includes Indians and Chinese who tend to be much better in contribution than Africans and Muslims skewing the results for non EEA. I am not opposed to some Indian (who tend to be mostly high caste) and Chinese immigration. Show me data that Africans and Muslims are an economic benefit. Also you can't just count immigrants since with legal immigration there is usually some selection for better quality people which then gravitates back when those people have children (regression towards the mean). Data clearly shows Africans and Muslims citizens in the UK are a cost so long term it still doesn't make sense taking these people.
Please see my previous answers and links. Non-EEA migrants are estimated to have a positive net fiscal contribution to the UK over their lifetime (although less so in the short term) and when the difference between different groups is there, it is minor. That is always the bottom line. Sorry about that. Just let it go.
Also you can't just count immigrants since with legal immigration..
Illegal immigration is only a tiny proportion of all immigration into the UK.

You are pathetic. Even if this example is valid (which it isn't) by your own admission WN didn't have any double standardsd before Jan. 6. which means they were a moral movement.
Does this control for their merit and their aggregate behavior? If not, stop wasting my time. You can't have a society where one visible ethnic group collectively behaves many times worse than others and not have any so called discrimination. People can't read other people's minds.
And are you now supposing that blacks reporting discrimination are dishonest? That is reaching, somewhat.
1.Because people often see discrimination when there is none, especially since they're TAUGHT they're oppressed (media, universities...etc)

You mean by doing those 'black' things that only black people do?

You first imply that discrimination is only alleged by dishonest blacks. Now when I show actual cases you still deny the obvious. It seems I am the one wasting my time...

Indeed; which is why the white insurrection in the US and rioting in the UK and racism generally can be comdemned.
People can't read other people's minds.
Like thinking someone must be lying?
people often see discrimination when there is none, especially since they're TAUGHT they're oppressed (media, universities...etc)
I think the experience of ethnic suffers is more than just being taught they are being discriminated as my links show. Unlike the idea of whites suffering or being discriminated under multi-culturalism, say, for which you have offered no proof but undoubtedly a political interest in supposing, probably fearing a loss of privilege.
"Whether or not apartheid, an implication inevitably behind your views, is moral or desirable is another question."
I never advocated apartheid. Freedom of association (end anti discrimination laws) and splitting the country in half
"Morality is not a word one readily associates with sometimes violent racists."
BLM activists and Antifa are also often violent. They unlike the Alt right have plenty of double standards
"This was in connection with your "Blacks, Hispanics, Jews, Native Americans are all hypocrites for having intergroup preference. But then WN definitely do as well."
No WN ever called those hypocrites for having it. They only demanded intergroup preference for Whites.
"You first imply that discrimination is only alleged by dishonest blacks. Now when I show actual cases you still deny the obvious. "
It's called having more than one layer of defense against your argument. I don't buy discrimination, but even if it existed, Blacks wouldn't be collectively victims (which is what the left claims) unless it was more relative to their behavior.
"Indeed; which is why the white insurrection in the US and rioting in the UK and racism generally can be comdemned."
A dodge. Whites one the aggregate behave much better than Blacks both in the UKS and UK. Jan 6 as well as UK riots wouldn't have happened if those countries weren't importing bad behaving ethnic groups.
"Like thinking someone must be lying?"
The burden of proof is not on me. If you say they are discriminated, you have to prove they indeed are and not just taught to see discrimination where none exists like the left teaches them.
"Unlike the idea of whites suffering or being discriminated under multi-culturalism"
So more crime, more riots, higher taxes, less freedom and less political power is not a legit grievance?
They only demanded intergroup preference for Whites.
You: "Blacks, Hispanics, Jews, Native Americans are all hypocrites for having intergroup preference. " then "No WN ever called those hypocrites for having it"
Glad to see you don't identify as WN. And it's good too to see that you have now sensibly dropped the term 'inter race' lol.
I don't buy discrimination, but even if it existed, Blacks wouldn't be collectively victims (which is what the left claims) unless it was more relative to their behavior.
You seem obsessed with one ethnic group. Sometimes an African name or just skin colour can be enough.

The cause of the riots, the murderer who was allegedly an immigrant was a false claim. As for the more general view of yours, it is entirely unevidenced and just unfortunate prejudice and is just more stereotyping.

Not due to genes then? lol In the UK crime is, overall down (as shown to you sometime ago) taxes too hight but not due to immigration specifically that I can discover, while 'loss of political power' I imagine here equates to underlying fear of loss of white privilege. 'Less freedom' is purely a subjective claim, perhaps from those who wish the freedom to hate without legal consequences.

The left is obsessed with labelling Blacks victims. My views are a reaction to that.

No just just provided a poll. Asians in the US don't generally make fuses of discrimination.

A case came be made for vice versa. And once again the mildness of 'intergroup preference' is disingenuous. I have read what white supremacists have said, starting on this board, justifying racism on the basis of, essentially, protecting white privilege, preference. It is also the case, that, with minorities that they less concerned with 'intergroup preference' than just to be treated equally and without prejudice than being 'preferred', especially when very often they are conspicuously not.
The left is obsessed with labelling Blacks victims.
The riot were caused by far-right misinformation and a climate of Islamophobia, racism, and anti-immigrant sentiment. In any case one ought not to justify violence and hate, sorry 'legit grievance'.
Do you deny data that (most) memories (sic) in the UK commit more crime are more likely on welfare, have less economic and educational success and are costing the taxpayer more?
It is a truism that those who have less investment in society and less education, achievement etc are more likely to commit crime. But the answer is more investment and levelling up not scapegoating minorities. There is more to bring us together than separate us.
There is tremendous reasons to be skeptical about data that minorities are oppressed. Data shows less educated Blacks claim they were victims of racism more than more educated ones. Also that older Blacks report less racism than younger ones. That does not fit with common sense and fits perfectly with modern woke society TELLING Blacks they are oppressed.
Also any discrimination even when proven real has to be controlled for THEIR BEHAVIOR. You can't have a society where a visible ethnic minority behaves much worse than the majority and expect no discrimination. People can't read other people's minds and we live in a world were people have to fend for themselves. Why aren't Chinese discriminated as much as Blacks? If Blacks get discriminated due to their behavior, then they - at least on a collective level - aren't victims which is what the left alleges.
No, non White immigrants (non EEA) are a cost, while White ones (EEA) are a benefit. This fits perfectly with White nationalism. You lose.
Legal definitions given already but thank you. If something is found illegal it cannot be 'legit' can it? QED
Again with a dodge. If WHOEVER (you or the legal system) claims that the so called "far right" is engaging in irrational hate and not legit ethnic grievances, YOU or the LEGAL SYSTEM has to distinguish these two behaviors. How is what the far right does "irrational hate" as opposed to legit ethnic grievance? How would native White Brits raise legit ethnic grievances without being accused of "hate"? You have to make that distinction in order to accuse them of hate. Just like if you accuse someone of murder and claim it was not self defense, you have to distinguish murder from self defense. If you can't make that distinction you can't condemn their behavior. In a democratic society ethnic groups HAVE TO be able to raise ethnic grievances.

Victim blaming is not a good look.
Why aren't Chinese discriminated as much as Blacks?
Because that is the way discrimination based on skin colour works and Chinese are not perceived as black.
No, non White immigrants (non EEA) are a cost, while White ones (EEA) are a benefit.
A study by Oxford Economics (2018), commissioned by the Migration Advisory Committee, estimated the net fiscal contribution of EEA migrants in the financial year (FY) 2016/17 at £4.7bn, compared to a net cost of £9bn for non- EEA migrants. Remember of late when you said "why would I not accept data?" I do.

And this is why legal definitions exist. See how it works?
How would native White Brits raise legit ethnic grievances without being accused of "hate"?

So you dispute my data of brown being a cost while Whites being a contribution by citing data that shows just that?
"And this is why legal definitions exist"
And where precisely is the distinction in the legal system between ethnic grievances and irrational hate? How would you distinguish it?
I didn't say it's not possible. I said they do not distinguish it despite that they should which is probably deliberate so that they can accuse anyone of "hate". The distinction is simple; "Group X are scum and should be expelled" is hate. "Group X behave badly, are a cost to us and this isn't fair, and we shouldn't be importing them" is legit political grievance.
How do you explain more educated Blacks saying the are oppressed more than less educated ones? It's because higher education TELLS THEM THAT.
Substantiation for both these claims please.
"Victim blaming is not a good look." Again another complete dodge of the argument.
No, it what is done when one blames the treatment accorded of a victim of discrimination is "controlled by their behaviour". Like when rape victims are called for dressing in a certain way.

You don't understand the argument or you are deliberately dishonest. The discussion is weather Blacks are victims collectively, not about any specific individual. Weather or not a given ethnic group is a victim of society has to be controlled for that ethnic group's aggregate behavior. It's extremely difficult (or almost impossible) to have a society where one visible ethnic group behaves much worse and then expect absolutely no discrimination in any situation.
Directly from you:

More educated black are more likely to believe society holds them back.
No surprise that the most educated more readily recognise and can articulate the structures, processes and history involved in prejudice, is it?
It's precisely those more educated Blacks that are closer to more educated Whites who are less likely to be "racist".
I have no idea of the point here, unless it shows that one does not have to be 'racist' to see discrimination against one's kind. After all, you are not racist... are you?
The discussion is weather Blacks are victims collectively, not about any specific individual.
And I have shown they are including, it would seem from you and your ilk, as well they are regularly victimised by stereotyping and denials of that which so many ethnics experience.
"Immigrants from outside the EU countries made a net fiscal contribution of about £5.2 billion, thus paying into the system about 3% more than they took out. In contrast, over the same period, natives made an overall negative fiscal contribution of £616.5 billion. The net fiscal balance of overall immigration to the UK between 2001 and 2011 amounts therefore to a positive net contribution of about £25 billion, over a period over which the UK has run an overall budget deficit."
Now this really is the last time.
And didn't you take me to task for only looking at one fiscal year? reply share
Or more likely it's because the higher education is telling (lying to) them that they're oppressed.
"And I have shown they are"
No you haven't shown they are victims collectively. To do that you have to show they are discriminated more than relatively how they behave. As long as people can't read other people's minds, you can't expect no discrimination against a visible ethnic group who behaves much worse than the rest.
Again cherry picking a single year (2016), which I already called you out for. Overall they are a burden. And I also already made a point that non EEA includes countries like India and China who are not the immigrants I'm talking about (Muslims and Blacks).
Vice versa? How? White advocates generally don't want to forbid Black Identity politics provided White identity politics is allowed. They don't advocate censorship of Black identity politics or cancel culture on Black identity politics. They don't oppose Black sovereignty provided White sovereignty is allowed. Black advocates or the left on the other hand do demand censorship of White IP and don't want to allow White sovereignty. The left has double standards, not WN.
White privilege is not a legit social grievance. All examples of "White privilege" are natural social mechanism. All examples of Black/minority privilege are of artificial social mechanisms. The argument of WP is essentially Whites behave better therefor tend to get treated better. If they behave better how is their treatment (even if truly better) unfair? The same applies and bad behavior of Blacks.
No ethnic groups deserves "equality" if they do not behave equally. Either make ethnic differences in behavior go away, invent and implement mind reading or shut up about discrimination. Hell, even if Whites were discriminating against Blacks entirely due to irrational tribal reasons, they would have a right to, since they are a people and every people has a right to intergroup preference. Nobody is forcing Blacks to live with Whites.
Why are you linking me leftist biased opinion pieces? The left plays explicit and direct Black identity politics, but then wants to forbid (censor, stigmatize or otherwise artificially suppress) reactionary White identity politics. Hypocrisy on steroids.
No, riots are an inevitable cause of unnatural demographic replacement (especially from much worse behaving ethnic groups) which the people were never asked about. Why are there no referendums on immigration? Please answer.

Because the UK rarely does referendums full stops on issues like that. We have general elections.
And no, in the UK, the riots were built on an outright lie about the identity of a murderer as promoted by nefarious actors abroad and social media activists from inside the country.
Generally don't hold referendums? Why? What was Brexit then? Isn't immigration enough an important issue? You didn't really answer.
Again blaming the trigger instead of the real cause.
I offered 13 examples when someone asked me to above. Search for it.
Again you have your opinion and you are welcome to it.
Again ignoring the whole argument.
When does the far right want to censor or punish Black identity politics? Examples please.
No I mean all examples the left gives like how it's supposedly unfair to Blacks a whole when a Black guy gets followed by security in the supermarket despite the fact it's Black behavior which is the root cause.
Every one is equal under the law.
Not talking about individuals, but ethnic groups. You know the entire leftist narrative.
Public discrimination also isn't immoral if there are good reasons for it. Also ethic separation is not inherently immoral either. The only way an ethnic groups can be "oppressed" is if they are denied sovereignty. No group owes any other group "inclusion" and certainly not when there is a huge cost to them. You can argue they should give it anyways, but they don't owe it.
the latest one was based on white hatred of ethnics based on false news.

Because there has never been any demand to that level, nor consensus on what such a question would be - nor has the Conservatives or Labour offered such a referendum, and they were in power over the last 10 years.
Maybe, but it set a precedent. Also referendums are democracy. You still haven't answered why no referendums on immigration. Its an existential issue for the country's long term future.

Many options for questions; Should the immigration into UK be limited to X number per year? Should the UK limit immigration from Muslim countries to only people with high skills? Should some countries be favored over others? According to polls, Uk citizens think Immigration is the most important issue for the country. Brexit saw an increase in Muslim and African immigration, it was not what people wanted. It was a PC mainstream politics derailment of true dissatisfaction on behalf of the public which had enough of immigrating and Muslims.
An Arabic asylum seeker did not kill those children. That was the lie.
Another dodge. He was Black and a descendant of recent immigrants.
No demand? Immigration is the most important issue for the country according to polls. There could be many questions, it could be chosen later. CON-servatives don't care about British people. They only care about economic growth, lower taxes, serving their Israeli Jewish donors and not being called racist. In my country, the government HAS to issue a referendum if the call gets 50.000 signatures unless the constitional court declares it unconstitutional. This should be the case in every country that calls itself democratic. The public should have more power than the political establishment. Also the media should be neutral and not just reflect the agenda of it's owners.

And yet all you offer are opinions, unsubtantiated claims, and not linking to any of those actual 'dozen examples' promised at the start.
White privilege is not a legit social grievance.
Again you have your opinion and you are welcome to it.
The far right plays explicit and direct white identity politics, but then wants to forbid (censor, stigmatize or otherwise artificially suppress) reactionary black identity politics. Hypocrisy on steroids.
There, corrected it for you.
The argument of WP is essentially Whites behave better therefor tend to get treated better.
You mean like all those rioting whites at the Capitol or during past race riots in the US?
No ethnic groups deserves "equality" if they do not behave equally.
Every one is equal under the law. Sorry about that.
even if Whites were discriminating against Blacks entirely due to irrational tribal reasons, they would have a right to, since they are a people and every people has a right to intergroup preference.
As has been pointed out to you before there is a difference between private preference and public discrimination, by continually conflating the two you are making a disingenuous argument.
No, riots are an inevitable cause of unnatural demographic replacement (especially from much worse behaving ethnic groups)
Yes, most race riots in the US have been whites on black. However in the UK causes are various; the latest one was based on white hatred of ethnics based on false news.
Why are there no referendums on immigration? Please answer.
Never heard of the Brexit referendum then, eh? It is commonly agree that a major factor was immigration and the referendum was often put to the public as a decision over borders, or at least partly in those terms.
FF: It is a truism that those who have less investment in society and less education, achievement etc are more likely to commit crime.
>A dodge. Whites one the aggregate behave much better than Blacks both in the UKS and UK. Jan 6 as well as UK riots wouldn't have happened if those countries weren't importing bad behaving ethnic groups.
And my position is that the Southport Stabber may have been radicalised by online anti-feminist reactionary content. Hence the stabbers choice of target being a Taylor Swift dance studio for kids, given this bloc utterly despise Taylor Swift and view her as the posterwoman for all they hate about women.
So without reactionary anti-women adjacent influencers online ranging from Andrew Tate to associates of Charlie Kirk who deride feminism and women - the stabbing may also not have occured.
There are all kinds of could-would-should have.
>So more crime, more riots, higher taxes, less freedom and less political power is not a legit grievance?
The riots in the UK were from white people, primarily. Most UK crime has decreased in the last decade:
Higher taxes? Related to all kinds of issues. Certainly "lots of black people living in society" isn't a massive one there. Lots of elderly a much more relevant data point if we're going to blame demographics.
And my position is that the Southport Stabber may have been radicalised by online anti-feminist reactionary content.
The critical difference with your analogy is that criticizing ideologies like feminism is part of democracy, importing bad behaving ethnic groups isn't necessary, certainly in high numbers
The riots in the UK were from white people, primarily.
Name me which ethnic group wouldn't riot in this situation? Needlessly becoming a minority to worse behaving ethnic foreigners and censored, smeared and persecuted for complaining about it.
Most UK crime has decreased in the last decade:
Doesn't change the fact Blacks commit more of it.
Higher taxes?
Minorities in the UK get more cash benefits, more child benefits and more tax benefits. Once they get old and retire and become majority, they will be getting more pensions too.

Dude that data graph says that 51% of black families receive some state support, and 53% of white families receive some state support.

You implied criticism of feminism was to blame for the attack I think immigration of certain ethnicities is to blame. Even if he committed the killing out of being angry at feminism it could still be his genes that were the predisposition to it. Blaming anti feminism isn't a very good argument since there wil always be disagreement and criticism of ideologies like feminism. We have to allow it in a democracy. We DON'T NEED to import Africans though and there is evidence Africans may be genetically more predisposed towards violence.
It wasn't even about that. It was directly fueled by fake news and agitated by people like Tommy Robinson who then fled the country.
You're blaming the trigger, not the build up. Trigger will always eventually come in one form or another. If we didn't import certain ethnic groups, it wouldn't happen. We don't need to import Muslims or Africans. Premature reports on social media and mistakes in reporting will always exist.
Right, but your characterisation of the UK is just wrong.
Crime rates fluctuate for many reasons. If the UK was 99% White as it was until recently, there is every reason to think it would have less crime.
Dude that data graph says that 51% of black families receive some state support, and 53% of white families receive some state support.
Pensions shouldn't count. Everyone gets old and nobody chooses to. You do chose to commit crime and live off welfare. Blacks will also once get old.

No, I'm blaming angry activists like Andrew Tate and right-wing reactionaries from the USA such as organisations like Turning Point and the Daily Wire that export disdainful rhetoric towards women. There have actually been a number of incel-derived murders in the UK.

So we should ban all immigration from African and the Arabic world (and elsewhere?) because of the prospect of career liars making shit up sometime in the future that results in riots down the line?

Not all older people receive a state pension.

What? I'm taking about the Muslim or Arabic vote here genius
Oh yes I do. Plenty of reasons to think Blacks could be more violent than Whites naturally. Violent crime rates all over the world, psychopathy data...etc As well as plausible evolutionary theories.
Ok so you completely ignored my point that ideological influencing will always exist in a democracy, but we don't need Africans? Or is it that you lefties want to inherently ban right wing ant feminism on social media but then cry about a threat to democracy?
Yes if there is evidence that given ethnic group may be more predisposed to violence than others, it makes sense to not import that ethnic group or at least limit it to only high IQ people from those places. None of which we have now. And you don't know why it happened as you admit yourself.
And our pension system would collapse, and our healthcare system would collapse.
Not if the UK encouraged higher birth rates. Or imported better behaving ethnic groups like other Europeans or Chinese. Korea hasn't collapsed yet they have less children than the UK and they have FAR less immigration. I'm not saying they don't have problem with births, but you said the country would collapse.
"Not all older people receive a state pension".
Any data old Whites get state pensions more than old Blacks or Muslims?

And I'm talking about all minorities. Pakistanis and Bangladeshis vote 44-7 Labor to Conservative. They vote their ethnic interests. My point stands.

This is unfalsifiable. You could just by this nature suggest that every single black person who commits a violent crime did so due to their genes, but every white person who does, somehow did not?
>Ok so you completely ignored my point that ideological influencing will always exist in a democracy, but we don't need Africans? Or is it that you lefties want to inherently ban right wing ant feminism on social media but then cry about a threat to democracy?

I don't know why we have mass immigration? Yes I do. Primarily for economic reasons, and to an extent, for humanitarian reasons.
>Not if the UK encouraged higher birth rates.
There's no magic switch that makes this happen. It takes time, and I am not going to endorse draconian policies for this.

Europeans and Chinese people don't want to come to the UK at the same rate. You don't just order specific nationalities to come and fill out job holes dude.

Korea's future on this looks utterly grim dude. And Japan's.
>I'm not saying they don't have problem with births, but you said the country would collapse.
"Collapse" doesn't mean immediately, but in the next several generations.
>Any data old Whites get state pensions more than old Blacks or Muslims?
Per capita it's probably similar. But obviously there's many more white people.
>And I'm talking about all minorities. Pakistanis and Bangladeshis vote 44-7 Labor to Conservative.
How much attention did you pay to the 2024 election? Labour lost, or nearly lost a bunch of seats across the country due to outrage over their policy on Gaza. Officially Labour got 39% of the Asian vote, and the conservatives 18% of that vote. 20% of the Asian vote voted "Other" which would be a combination of Gaza Independents, and Workers Party candidates most likely.
If Labour was desperate to just keep them, they'd hold a different policy position on Gaza.
It doesn't have to be falsifiable because of the context of our debate which is immigration. Here the burden is on those who want to import these people.
No I meant that you admitted you don't know for sure why that murder happened.
Yes it takes time, but on long term it might pay off in stopping our counties to eventually become filled with Islamic fundamentalists and not increase crime. Government incentives aren't a draconian policy. So it's the media encouraging large families.
Europeans and Chinese people don't want to come to the UK at the same rate.
They have been coming so far. And they would probably come even in larger numbers if the quota/jobs wasn't already filled with Africans and Muslims.
Korea's future on this looks utterly grim dude. And Japan's.
But they haven't collapsed. It's a slow process. We could increase births during that time.
Per capita it's probably similar.
IDK if it's similar since Whites probably have better income.
Labour lost, or nearly lost a bunch of seats across the country due to outrage over their policy on Gaza.
Completely irrelevant to my point about minorities voting their ethnic interest. Their votes didn't go to reform or nationalist parties. According to the left when minorities vote their interest the left thinks it's legit, but when Whites vote theirs (Reform) it's racism

LOL if you poll them, they migh say yes. But they aren't making a fuss out of it like Blacks. Also much of this discrimination likely comes from Blacks who are known to attack Asians.

OK so all the data that Asians make better decisions and are more successful than Blacks are just my own "assessment"?
No but the emphasis to discriminate against blacks is your own prejudice, when it is quite possible to think of things one ethnic group does better than than another and so stereotype both, or choose to focus on things which suits one's prejudices.
Refresh my memory.
It starts with your determination to discriminate against one people in particular who are defined on the basis of poverty and intelligence... and ends with the idea of sending them all back home. It is not an attractive social outlook, and regularly one based around the fallacy of composition.
reply share
Again with the prejudices? How is data prejudiced? How is making rational decisions based on undisputed facts irrational hate?
Taking aggregate behavior into consideration makes sense in making important decisions like importation of given ethnic groups in the country and deliberately diversifying neighborhoods. I never advocated needless discrimination based on race on random individuals when there is no cost in not doing so. I also never supported repatriating Blacks in USA to Africa. They have a right to live there, just not to live with Whites. As for the UK ones, it's different, since they moved voluntarily.
Something to ask yourself when I offer it. But then "why would I refuse data" right?
How is making rational decisions based on undisputed facts irrational hate?
It is not; but basing decisions based on obsolete science, stereotyping, confirmation bias, and the repeated obfuscation of a difference between two different words is another matter entirely.
Taking aggregate behavior into consideration makes sense
It does not make sense to stereotype in order to execute social and economic policy - which is something else again - and which despite your careful phrasing, is what your arguments ultimate come down to. Because some of a group do bad things, then they all have to go home.
I also never supported repatriating Blacks in USA to Africa.
Not even when you asserted that immigrants, en masse, should just leave?
They have a right... not to live with Whites.

Data about race differences is IQ and race differences in crime are not obsolete. Again you assume the ethnic differences in behavior have nothing to do with either genetics or culture while all the evidence says otherwise. You are the one who has to prove Black behavior is not due to them (either their genes or culture) since you are the one importing them here. THE BURDEN IS ON YOU. Until you can prove Blacks are equally genetically predisposed to behavior as us and that their culture is going to be absorbed any time soon, WE SHOULDN'T BRING THEM HERE.
And it's not that just some of them do bad things, it's that they BEHAVE WORSE ON AVERAGE. And behave significantly worse. Until you can proven that this difference has nothing to do with them (genes or culture) we shouldn't be taking them. Hell even if it would be true that they only behaved worse due to our "discrimination" it would still make sense to not bring them here since they will just be discriminated and there is no magic button for ending discrimination.

If the concept is obsolete then necessarily so is the data produced.

Sorry the claims about genes have been all yours from the start so the onus remains with you. I am happy to accept that some behaviour is cultural. But it is when we get into 'bad' and 'good' cultures and behaviours you become selective and subjective, while reverting to stereotyping of whole groups, without even considering the social, economic contexts and all the rest.
Until you can proven that this difference has nothing to do with them (genes or culture) we shouldn't be taking them.
Them being.. blacks, ethnic groups, or just any immigrants at all you don't like?
OK I'm gonna let you get away with that dodge because I am really tired of wasting time debating you
No the burden is not on me because of the context. If the context was to weather or not we should sterilize all Black people, then the burden of genetics being the cause would be on me. But it's not, the context is immigration and since you want to bring ethnic groups who behave worse, you have to prove it's neither genetic nor their culture that is the cause of their bad behavior. And even then you would have to show that their behavior (whatever was the cause) was likely to improve very soon.
Linking the governments OPINION is not proof behavior is not genetic. What research was done to inquire this and what evidence came back suggesting it's not? The Bahamas the richest Black country is 4 times wealthier than Bosnia, et their homicide rate is 30 TIMES higher. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_intentional_homicide_rate
"is not the same as 'no one is obliged to live with those they don't like'"
since you want to bring ethnic groups who behave worse,
Stereotyping noted. Again.
you have to prove it's neither genetic nor their culture that is the cause of their bad behavior.
As has been carefully explained to you before, the fact is that genetic differences are less between groups than within them. So it is up to you first to first show otherwise, on that. On culture, I don't know of a reputable anthropologist who would make the case that a group's culture makes its members behave badly. It is more likely to be the age of the badly behaved that makes certain behaviours more likely. In both cases though the onus of proof is on you since you are the stereotyper, deeming whole ethnic groups badly behaved per se, not I.
The Bahamas the richest Black country is 4 times wealthier than Bosnia, et their homicide rate is 30 TIMES higher.
The US has one of the highest per capita homicide rates in the world and is also one of the richest. If (as you have liked to do at points during our exchanges) blur correlation and cause then we can just as well argue that economics is the cause of bad behaviour, as much as anything else.. reply share
"differences are less between groups than within them."
So even you admit there are differnces between groups. Yet you maintan that these differences are not the cause of behavior.
"I don't know of a reputable anthropologist who would make the case that a group's culture makes its members behave badly"
What? So the fact that Afghanis deny education to women, stone them to death is not a result of their culture? And before you say it, it's not religion. Plenty of Muslim countries don't stone their women to death. This statement has to be the dumbest thing you've ever written in this entire exchange and that's saying a lot.
"the onus of proof is on you"
How is the burden on me, if i'm not the one bringing them here? I never said innocent individuals of a given ethnic group should be blamed for their aggregate behavior. I never said they all need to be sterlizied. I just claim we should stop importing them until we know they will start behaving better (and behaving better soon)
Who is pulling the trigger in the US? Is it Asian grandmas, or is it young Black men?
Correlation often times is the cause. If you don't think genetics is the cause of this correlation, then explain what is it?
In any case even if discrimination against Blacks was real, it wouldn't be justified collective Black grievance, since Blacks as a hole (sic)commit more crime.
Chinese immigrants tend to be richer and well-educated than the average immigrant from Pakistan or Syria.
However, there are absolutely issues with Chinese interference with universities regarding issues the CCP don't like on UK campuses. It's more of a problem in Canada and Australia.

No. I mentioned that the wealth and educational level of the average Chinese immigrant is much different to the average Syrian or Pakistani because they're from completely different social classes, and that's not due to race. Pakistani students would be perfectly comparable to Chinese students.

On aggregate the average Pakistani is likely much more prone to crime on the basis that they're much poorer and less educated (or the ones that come to the UK are) in comparison to Chinese people coming here to study.
Any evidence of any serious problems with Saudi students (who tend to be similarly well-off)?

You don't know differences in education and income aren't due to race. Besides, the context was If racism is the cause of Black/Muslim communities problems in Europe ie. behavior so I don't even have to prove genetic contribution here.
On aggregate the average Pakistani is likely much more prone to crime on the basis that they're much poorer and less educated (or the ones that come to the UK are) in comparison to Chinese people coming here to study.
You don't know that it's only due to their education and that their lack of education isn't due to their genes. Pakistanis in the UK have a very high degree of incest and cousin inbreeding. This is known to lower IQ. And even if we knew it's not due to genes, but due to culture only, this cultural difference and education level difference would be a valid argument to keep out Pakistanis (as well as blame them for their bad culture) and favor Chinese which was the context of the debate

Clearly both would have had completely different lives.

No, I said Saudi **students** are comparable to Chinese **students**.

I did. But the point here is that poorly educated Chinese working class types rarely make it to the UK. The same is not with Syrians.
Yes, Chinese people receive a ton more education on average.
Which they would had they been more intelligent. A better IQ is likely to result in better education.
You got data that it's due to their race?
I think it's genetics, but I don't have to prove it's due to their race in this particular context of our disagreement since you claimed the difference in Chinese and Syrians in the UK is strictly due to selection. I pointed out the WHOLE COUTNRIES Syrians have lower IQs than Chinese, so it's not due to selection. Even if it's entirely due to Chinese culture being superior to Syrian culture (and nothing due to genes) it would still mean Syrians are the problem and we shouldn't be taking Syrians.

It also might have something to do with being bought up in China, rather than Syria with far less educational opportunities.

Poor Chinese under-educated people aren't coming to the UK. That's my point. They are in Syria. There are more under-educated Syrians, of course, but that's an entirely different discussion.
But again: you have no evidence for your initial claim here - which was my point.
Data about Chinese and Syrian immigration patterns please. Also the claim is also for Chinese and Syrians as a whole, not just those in the UK. How come China has an IQ of above 100 while Arab countries are so low if the education is not the cause since Chinese education is not much better than Arab? Not to mention oil rich Arab countries are much richer than China
How do you know its not culture or religion too?

The political agenda and dissatisfaction behind them is justified. If your people are becoming a minority in their homeland due to immigration and they aren't even allowed to oppose it while the immigrants tend to behave in let's just say "unbecoming" manner, then it's perfectly justified.

The stabber was not an immigrant. They were born in the UK to refugee parents who arrived in the early 00s. The rioters were claiming, on false information that he was a muslim syrian refugee. (His ancestry is Rwandan christian).
Here's my take:
He went into a dance class themed around Taylor Swift with rainbow branding, obvious DEI symbols on and stabbed 20 kids and two adults. My hypothesis is that he was radicalised by the online anti-feminist/women/reactionary movement who very much regards Taylor Swift as the root of all evil.

"Not allowed to oppose it"? We just had an election. Labour, Liberal Democrats and the Greens combined won over 50% of the vote from the voting public. A minority of people do not get to use force to impose their policy. That is thuggery. People had a say less than a month before those riots.
>Funny you leftists were justifying the same riots when one police officer on a different continent accidentally killed one criminal.
stabber was not an immigrant. They were born in the UK to refugee parents who arrived in the early 00s.
That's even a worse argument for multculturalists since it suggests lack of asimilation. He is not indigenous nor White.
My hypothesis
in other words a biased opinion of a liberal. He was Black. There are good evidence suggesting Blacks might be naturally more prone to psychopathy which would explain the stabbing.
"Not allowed to oppose it"?
Yes, they are smeared, silenced, censored and legally persecuted like Sam Melia who was sentanced to prison for putting flyers against immgraion.
sure when I said anything like this ever.
Who's talking about you? The point was about liberals. They even wrote articles titled "in defense of rioting"

Aren't most serial and mass killers in the USA, which this is more comparable to, white?
>Yes, they are smeared, silenced, censored and legally persecuted like Sam Melia who was sentanced to prison for putting flyers against immgraion.
Are you of the opinion that the only way one can express issues with immigration is to put up stickers in public places full of racial slurs? Plenty of politicians, activists and journalists in the UK are openly against the levels of immigration and say so publicly and nothing happens to them.
Aren't most serial and mass killers in the USA, which this is more comparable to, white?
No, there aren't. Blacks have always been disproportionate among serial killers since 1900. In the 2010s and 2020 Blacks have been 8 times disproportionate. For some reason, Hollywood makes movies only about White serial killers
Are you of the opinion that the only way one can express issues with immigration is to put up stickers in public places full of racial slurs?
"We will be minority in our country by 2060" is not racial slur. So isn't "immigrants cost more" and even "immigrants commit more crime"
Plenty of politicians, activists and journalists in the UK are openly against the levels of immigration and say so publicly and nothing happens to them.
You can be against immigration, but you aren't allowed to effectively advocate why. Once you start bringing effective rational arguments against immigration like the examples I listed, you are censored, smeared and persecuted. reply share

A Muslim posting a similar sticker campaign with loaded comments would also likely be arrested in the UK for that.
>You can be against immigration, but you aren't allowed to effectively advocate why. Once you start bringing effective rational arguments against immigration like the examples I listed, you are censored, smeared and persecuted.
No, people have expressed concerns with the levels of poorly-educated immigrants, ,the strain on public services and welfare, ghettoisation, sectarianism etc. They don't get arrested.
A Muslim posting a similar sticker campaign with loaded comments would also likely be arrested in the UK for that.
So a Muslim saying "We Pakistanis will be minority in Pakistan" would be arrested? Or saying "Demographic change is good"? A Pakistani saying "Whites take more from the government and commit more crime" would be censored, smeared or arrested?
Why hasn't Nigel Farage been arrested?
Nigel Farage has been de-banked. He has been censored, smeared and demonized
But Nigel Farage doesn't even talk about core issues like race and genetic contribution to behavior. He isn't even a real ethno nationalist, just a culturalist. He even virtue signals how immigrants from Eastern Europe are worse than those form third world (not true) so he won't be called a racist.

No you're just outright lying. You know he wouldn't. They wouldn't even be condemned. Ash Sakar bragged about Whites becoming a minority and she was only condemned by the right, not by the mainstream.

You are allowed to be anti Immigration. The elite aren't stupid. They know banning simply being anti immigration wouldn't work.

You made the point about welfare differences, but government data doesn't seem to suggest what you're saying.
I've searched for a word of every effective grievance against White becoming minority in this article: "crime", "welfare", "IQ", "benefits", "cost", "Islam", "terror"... and nothing came up. You're allowed to oppose it, as long as you aren't bringing up productive reasons why. You're allowed to play football and try to score as long as you're playing poorly.
And what did that have to do with the UK government?
So general society suppressing dissent out of political beliefs is somehow better than government doing it? He won so that means they did it illegally. The suppression of dissent is coming from everywhere. And the government DID go after Sam Melia.
How has he been smeared specifically.

You made the point about welfare differences, but government data doesn't seem to suggest what you're saying.
Yes it does. Blacks are significantly more likely (24% vs 15%) to be on income related benefits than Whites. They also get more tax benefits and housing benefits. Blacks as well as Asians also get more child benefits. Then there's crime and terrorism.
>No need for her. She isn't becoming a minority. Her ethnic group aren't losing her homeland.
Right, but she did not do what this guy did.

He has. Hasn't stopped him though, has it? Jeremy Corbyn also had named thrown at him during his career. Keir Starmer himself, although not called racist, gets accusations lobbed at him that stick.
>The point it he virtue signals against racism.
No, he was trying to discredit the allegations of racism against him by pointing out that if he really was racist he would be wanting to more harshly come down on that type of immigration.
>Yes it does. Blacks are significantly more likely (24% vs 15%) to be on income related benefits than Whites. They also get more tax benefits and housing benefits. Blacks as well as Asians also get more child benefits. Then there's crime and terrorism.
You have cherrypicked this data badly.
"white British families (54%) were the most likely out of all ethnic groups to receive state support – families from the Chinese ethnic group (25%) were the least likely to"
Also, the data is not that heavily disproportionate. By your logic Indians and Asians should be praised as they take less income-related benefit than White brits.
So you think if she handed out flyers "Bangladeshi pride" or "We will soon become a majority" she would be charged?
You've moved the goalposts.
So you admit the "game" is unfair to Whites? It's not goalpost shifting, our debate is about unfairness to Whites in general, not specifically weather or not something is illegal.
Not arrested
Not arrested, but still outrage over a perfectly valid political grievance. Your own link proves Whites are being attacked for raising legit political points. There should be NO outrage culture over ethnic grievances and certainly not only if one ethnic group raises them. When Blacks or Muslims raise their grievances (which all happen to NOT be legit btw) there is no outrage.
How is it the government can stop whatever social attitudes develop over time?
I am talking precisely about those social attitudes. Just a few years ago there would be no cancel culture against politicians like Farage. But then Trump won and the West went insane.
Hasn't stopped him though, has it?
Being called racist is a tremendous cost to one's reputation. He has been smeared. The point stands. And Farage doesn't even about demographic change, only about lack of integration. And he's still smeared as immoral. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kvaGDWrfmmU&list=WL&index=20
Yes he did virtue signal. Being against brown people is more taboo than being against Poles so he bragged about against EU more in favor of the Commonwealth. Typical virtue signaling.
You have cherrypicked this data badly.
No, It's not since pensions shouldn't count. Nobody chooses to get told and everyone gets old eventually. You do chose to go on welfare instead of working or to commit crime.
They also get more tax benefits. Yes Indians and E Asians should be praised. Indians are more from higher castes and E. Asians are good people.

It's not the business of the state to dictate the nature of feedback to individuals when they make claims about things. Susan Hall was not arrested. People in the UK are not arrested by default when they call for lowered immigration. They might be scorned by their peers, but that's simply what happens sometimes in contemporary society.
>Not arrested, but still outrage over a perfectly valid political grievance. Your own link proves Whites are being attacked for raising legit political points.
People are "attacked" all the time by others for raising what they might regard as "legit political points". It is not the role of the state to dictate what kind of feedback people may or may not receive when they make arguments about speciifc topics.
>There should be NO outrage culture over ethnic grievances and certainly not only if one ethnic group raises them. When Blacks or Muslims raise their grievances (which all happen to be legit btw) there is no outrage.
Are you being sarcastic here? What grievances are you calling legit here as raised by Black and Muslim communities? Because they do get negative feedback by society. I recall a number of palestinian activists, for instance, arrested shortly after October 7th for inciting violence - this was very much a Muslim grievance issue. I recall a notable student officer who got frontpage news, negative news, for saying "black people can't be racist" or something along those lines.
>I am talking precisely about those social attitudes. Just a few years ago there would be no cancel culture against politicians like Farage. But then Trump won and the West went insane.
Farage isn't cancelled. He is a TV show host, the leader of a political party and an elected MP. He has more BBC appearances on Question Time than any other politician in history. This is nonsense.
>Being called racist is a tremendous cost to one's reputation. He has been smeared. The point stands. And Farage doesn't even about demographic change, only about lack of integration. And he's still smeared as immoral.
And yet he's still there. All frontline politicians of notable parties, or self-made politicians take heaps of abuse and criticism over the years.
>Yes he did virtue signal. Being against brown people is more taboo than being against Poles so he bragged about against EU more in favor of the Commonwealth. Typical virtue signaling.
No, he was making the point against allegations of him being racist. He was trying to throw it in the face of those who criticise him.
>They also get more tax benefits. Yes Indians and E Asians should be praised. Indians are more from higher castes and E. Asians are good people.
The point is there's not a huge amount in it. Black people get more state benefits primarily on account of many of them simply being poorer. And yes, people get old - but they don't automatically go onto the state pension if they have a private pension.
Ok so you don't dispute my argument that society is unfair to Whites? Who's talking about the state? I'm talking about woke society in general.
Criticizing and disagreeing with someone's opinion is not the same thing as outrage, censorship and smear. Nobody should be outraged over indigenous Brits saying we don't want to become a minority or brown people are a cost and aren't integrated. Those are all perfectly valid grievances and political points.
Why did you change my sentence from "NOT be legit" to "be legit"? Palestinians issue is something different. There is no outrage when brown people are explicitly identatarian, push for their racial interest (BLM), but when Whites do it (in their own ancestral homeland) there is outrage and censorship.
He is still being demonized by the left. And he was debanked. Also Farage has those things because he doesn't care about ethnicity or native British people, but only about culture. He doesn't even mind native Brits becoming a minority. People who talk about ethnicity are cancelled though and there is no reason they should. Imagine Koreans in Korea becoming a minority to White immigrants and the only Korean politicians not totally cancelled would be the ones complaining about Korean culture. As if Koreans people don't have a right to remain majority in Korea.
Criticism is not the same as outrage.
In other word, virtue signaling.
So you admit Blacks are more costly then? Yet you still insist on importing them instead of groups who are more beneficial.
Any data that minorities per capita and controlling for age use less state pensions?

People can be outraged and dislike whatever they like. You don't get to dictate that they shouldn't be.

And Korea is, much to its potential demographic collapse, a relatively xenophobic culture.
>So you admit Blacks are more costly then? Yet you still insist on importing them instead of groups who are more beneficial.
Because they're often poorer. The average black person arrives or is born into poverty more commonly than a white person.
Why are you changing the topic to Hamas or directly inciting violence? We are talking weather or not Ash Sakar would be charged if the posted "Bangladeshi pride" or "We will soon become the majority" posters. She wouldn't. But Sam Melia was. A double standard against Whites.
I have very good arguments Western societies are unfair to Whites. I don't' demand automatic acceptance of my views, but I demand free speech and end to cancel culture to people who are explicitly pro White just as there is no censorship and cancel culture to people who are explicitly pro Black and pro minority. The current woke moral paradigm is a result of deliberate conditioning at the hand of institutions like the media and education as well as censorship/cancel culture which is an obvious example of ideological cheating. It isn't natural. It's a result of people being afraid to express themselves. It's an emperor's new clothes situation.
People can be outraged and dislike whatever they like. You don't get to dictate that they shouldn't be.
Read 4 previous sentences above.
And Korea is, much to its potential demographic collapse, a relatively xenophobic culture.
Totally ignoring the point again. I could easily have listed Sri Lanka instead of Korea.
And why are Blacks poorer? The IQ/genetics hypothesis can explain it very well, while yours requires mental gymnastics and excuses. Also we have data from US that poverty is not the cause of crime. Rich Black kids commit more crime than poor White kids. https://archive.ph/CQWo1 reply share
>You're right that one could argue that a taxi driver has an obligation to pick up customers of all races because he signed a contract do that and he accepted the risk is part of a job. But the allegation that he is "racist" still isn't warranted as long as data shows Blacks are more dangerous. "Racism" implies irrationality and this isn't the case. Also if a private taxi driver who works for himself doesn't pick Black customers he is also called racist despite the fact he has no obligation to his employer.
He can think what he wants. But he is performing a public service.
And people can judge him however they like.
>Why should the ethnicity of someone matter when discussing that some terms do more harm than good to society? This is a typical example of an ad hominem fallacy. "Your argument is wrong, because you're not an American".

There is nothing unwarranted in a White person being on the side of his ethnic group if they are under attack. Yet a White is called "racist" for being on the side of his group, but a Black person is not.
You do if people want to take you seriously. I can just as easily call someone an "unwarranted tribalist" and have no good reason for thinking so. How is it any different if I instead call them racist? Why is "unwarranted tribalist" a valid term, but not "racist". All people would do is instead of using "racist" they'd just "unwarranted tribalist" and it would inherit the negative connotations of racist.

Leftist could never accuse him of being irrational or even unfair, but they can accuse him of being "racist". Still don't see the problem with this term?

No they couldn't. A woman could not be accused of "unwarranted tribalism" when she refused to let in her apartment a young Black male in the middle of the night. Her decision to do so is not tribalism, but rational safety concern and it is not unwarranted given the situation. Any racial discrimination in any situation can and is being called racist because it's ethnically discrimination on race. This couldn't be the case with "unwarranted tribalist"
And shelter, job, banking, internet aren't essential?
One could depend the nuances of specific situations and compromises could be made, but that doesn't de-legitimize the principle. My view is the final goal should be geographical racial separation, that would solve the discrimination problem immediately.

And I'm sure you'd say that a woman couldn't be accused of racism in such a scenario either, but they are. The point is that there will always be a term that people could use, justifiably or unjustifiably to refer to people who they believe expresses some form of prejudice against people due to their ethnic background. Whether or not they're called "racist" or "unwarranted tribalist" doesn't much matter.

There is NO support for this. There are nearly 2 million people of mixed ethnicity in the UK.

That's not the point. They judge unfairly because the term "racist" has brainwashed them.
black people should be allowed to, legally, be prevented from any access to any public service.
If they are a danger to people, people will discriminate against them as long as they don't have the ability to read minds. They should blame their own communities for raising their children in such way and instilling such values that makes them behave so.

That's exactly my point. She is accused of "racism" because this is the term in our society for any racial discrimination regardless if it's justified. It does matter because "unwarranted tribalist" is a precise term. It has the word "unwarranted" in it so you have to show that tribalism isn't warranted before you accuse. With racism you don't because all you have to show is racial discrimination. There is a very interesting old book called "Tyranny of words". You should read it.

>That's exactly my point. She is accused of "racism" because this is the term in our society for any racial discrimination regardless if it's justified. It does matter because "unwarranted tribalist" is a precise term.
"Racist" is a precise term. It refers to a form of discrimintion or prejudice towards someone purely because of their heritage.
"Unwarranted" is subjective. Someone has to make a value judgement as to whether or not someone's "tribalism" is justified or not. Someone could easily call someone an "unwarranted tribalist" and you would disagree. But they'd still persist. So you'd end up in the exact same situation as you are in now.
And do you honestly expect to somehow make the entire western world use the word 'racist'? Like is that a goal you think remotely achievable?
>Lack of current support doesn't debunk the validity of the principle. Also I am talking about the US where Blacks were taken against their will.
There are 34 million mixed-race people in the USA. And most black people in the USA now have been there for multiple generations. Well over 100 years. Where the fuck would they go?
>Immigrants in the UK could return.
Many mixed-race people in the UK are not immigrants.
"Focus on that that this aimless tirade at the term "racist"."
You still don't see that the term "racism" and it's lack of specificity tends to guide people's thoughts?
"That's not what I asked you: Should black people should be allowed to, legally, be prevented from any access to any public service?"
Private businesses should calculate themselves if risk is worth the extra income from Black customers. Legally they shouldn't be able to force anyone to take needless risks if they don't want to. If Blacks don't want to be discriminated, then they shouldn't live among Whites.
"Criticizing someone's understanding of language and the context behind the term has nothing to do with race."
You're not criticizing my understanding of language. If hadn't told you English is not my first language after you made a typo, you wouldn't have known.
""Racist" is a precise term. It refers to a form of discrimination or prejudice towards someone purely because of their heritage."
No it's not precise. There are dozens of different definitions from respected sources online. ADL itself was forced to change the definition 3 times in one year. Things that clearly aren't prejudiced like test cores or AI are called racist.
""Unwarranted" is subjective. Someone has to make a value judgement as to whether or not someone's "tribalism" is justified or not. Someone could easily call someone an "unwarranted tribalist" and you would disagree. But they'd still persist. So you'd end up in the exact same situation as you are in now."
It's much less subjective than blanket term "racism". All words are subjective to a degree. Some more than others. Blasphemy, degeneracy and racism are among the most subjective.
"And do you honestly expect to somehow make the entire western world use the word 'racist'? Like is that a goal you think remotely achievable?"
Yes. Difficulty in achieving a goal is not an argument of the illegitimacy of that goal.

No, because I reject your premise that it is somehow uniquely non-specific.

>It's much less subjective than blanket term "racism". All words are subjective to a degree. Some more than others. Blasphemy, degeneracy and racism are among the most subjective.
So you claim. No reason to believe this. "Blasphemy" isn't subjective at all, it's just.. who gives a fuck about insulting a religion. "Degeneracy" is, I agree. Racism is not that subjective at all.
>Yes. Difficulty in achieving a goal is not an argument of the illegitimacy of that goal.
And you think you'll achieve this by a thread on moviechat? You believe that you, and you alone can personally make the english speaking world stop using the word "racist"?
"No, because I reject your premise that it is somehow uniquely non-specific."
You actually deny the non specificity of the term "racism"? After I showed you the absurd examples where it is claimed to exist not by wackos but by respectable journalists and academics?
"That's still not what I asked you. I am talking about LEGALITY. Should it be legal to block black people access to public services?"
I already answered. I never proposed a law that prohibit Blacks to have access to public services. If businesses decide the risk isn't worth it, then they shouldn't be forced by the government.
"I'm more criticising it here primarily due to it coming across as a form of linguistic imperialism."
Valid arguments about the problems of terms like "racism" and "blasphemy" aren't linguistic imperialism. Every rational person should see the problems with such terms.
"Show me these different definitions please."
Use Google. Here is a video about ADL and it's confusion of the term "racism";
Saying racism is not subjective without even arguing it is not an argument. I've argued why it's subjective. You haven't argued why it's not.
"And you think you'll achieve this by a thread on moviechat? You believe that you, and you alone can personally make the English speaking world stop using the word "racist"?"
Not an argument against the legitimacy of my ideas.
By this logic I can just as much make fun of you trying to eradicate racism by posting on moviechat.
>You actually deny the non specificity of the term "racism"? After I showed you the absurd examples where it is claimed to exist not by wackos but by respectable journalists and academics?
I don't recall you ever giving me links.
>I already answered. I never proposed a law that prohibit Blacks to have access to public services. If businesses decide the risk isn't worth it, then they shouldn't be forced by the government.
No. I asked you if they should be legally ALLOWED to discriminate. In my country, a private business literally cannot refuse service to someone because of their race. They would get fined.
Is there a text form of this? And I'm not especially inclined to trust a scientific racist institution.
>Saying racism is not subjective without even arguing it is not an argument. I've argued why it's subjective. You haven't argued why it's not.
I said *not that subjective*. All definitions have cultural context behind them. Different forms of racism receive different social and legal responses in most western countries. As would be so if it was some variant of "unwarranted tribalism".
>By this logic I can just as much make fun of you trying to eradicate racism by posting on moviechat.
I'm not trying to do that, nor did I ever suggest I was going to do that by posting on here.
"No. I asked you if they should be legally ALLOWED to discriminate. In my country, a private business literally cannot refuse service to someone because of their race. They would get fined."
I answered. Yes they should. It is fundamentally unfair that people have to take needless risks because ANOTHER ethnic group in their country CHOOSES to commit more crime and raise their members in values that make them.
"Is there a text form of this? And I'm not especially inclined to trust a scientific racist institution."
It's a video on Odysee. Watch it, you won't get infected with a virus. You can Google check every claim.
"I said *not that subjective*. All definitions have cultural context behind them. Different forms of racism receive different social and legal responses in most western countries. As would be so if it was some variant of "unwarranted tribalism"."
I still see no argument why "racism" is not a severely subjective term. Give me examples.
"I'm not trying to do that, nor did I ever suggest I was going to do that by posting on here."
Well I don't have delusions that I will stop people using the term "racism" any time soon. But I can test my ideas on forums like this to see if there are any good arguments against them. So far, I've seen none from you.
>I answered. Yes they should. It is fundamentally unfair that people have to take needless risks because ANOTHER ethnic group in their country CHOOSES to commit more crime and raise their members in values that make them.
There's no support for this. And this would mean that in theory a black person born in the wrong area could effectively find themselves unable to work anywhere, live anywhere, or even go in a supermarket to buy goods. It would drive black people into crime as they have no other option.
>It's a video on Odysee. Watch it, you won't get infected with a virus. You can Google check every claim.
I'd rather read an article.
>I still see no argument why "racism" is not a severely subjective term. Give me examples.
Racism at core is about prejudice, or perceived prejudice towards an individual or group on the basis of their heritage. That's it. That's base definition.
Some people unfairly call people racist, some people do not. And the general perception of what is or is not considered racist has changed over the years, as have many things.

This was allowed in the South prior to civil rights act. In any case you just provided an excellent argument why Blacks shouldn't live in the same country.

No, I didn't. This is like arguing that oppressive laws against Jewish people in the mid 1930s justifies them being removed from the country.

It depends on what you do with that data, and how it impacts your interactions with all black people.

There is no specific word, not "unwarranted tribalism", not anything else that could replace "racism" that would somehow stop what you don't like happening. People have always been fairly or unfairly charged with things.
Do you equally complain about "misogyny" or "homophobia" as terms?
Because leftists took over the institutions and started brainwashing people and lying to them. If one ethnic group is behaviorally a huge burden to another it is EHTNIC INJUSTICE against that group to have to live with them. They have every right to discriminate in order to protect themselves and as long as they aren't discriminating needlessly. If the bad behaving ethnic group does not want to be discriminated, they shouldn't live with the other ethnic group. That's why we have countries.
No, I didn't. This is like arguing that oppressive laws against Jewish people in the mid 1930s justifies them being removed from the country.
Jews didn't behave like Blacks.

Whites don't owe Black people having good opinion about them and to not discriminate against them to protect themselves if they behave like shit. No ethnic group owes anything to any other group besides leaving them alone.

That is just your opinion for the sake of disagreeing with me and not admit defeat in an argument. I think if someone asked you in a different context weather or not "unwarranted tribalsim" would be used in same situations like "racism" if terms were swapped, you would probably have a different take.

I have very good reservations about those terms as well. Straight men who don't find gay sex aesthetic are now called homophobes

So are you suggesting you're in favour of imposing Nazi-tier legislation to black people?

I'm in favour of judging people as individuals. Turns out if you construct policy to alienate a specific group out of respectable society they'll all be more inclined towards criminality.

"Unwarranted tribalism" could be used fairly and unfairly. You have given no good argument that it can only be used respectably (per your standards). What you insist without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.
>I have very good reservations about those terms as well. Straight men who don't find gay sex aesthetic are now called homophobes

See if there is a cost in not discriminating.

Why do you think so? I never proposed any laws directly discriminating against Blacks. Just discard anti discrimination laws and have freedom of association.

They are already inclined toward criminality and even more so they were prior to the civil rights movement. Blacks did better in pre 1960s conservative America according to most metrics.

I argued WHY "unwarranted tribalis" would less likely be used in unjustified situation. Because the term literally has the word UNWARRANTED in it. You also never provided any evidence that it wouldn't change things, and you didn't even argue why. You just asserted it.

No, you claimed it. You never argued it or gave good justification.

So what? People debate whether or not things are "unwarranted" now. Calling something warranted or unwarranted is bound by subjectivity in itself.
>You also never provided any evidence that it wouldn't change things, and you didn't even argue why. You just asserted it.
Because of how language itself works. We all make judgements on the usage of labels, accusations.
People are allowed to have biases and preferences. In most cases it's not since not employing a competent Black worker is an economic cost to oneself.

You first made that comparison buddy

Less so than the word "racist". It's hard to argue wanting to import people who commit less crime and less likely to live off welfare is unwarranted.

Of course people can have biases and prejudices. But one can have a prejudice that is "unwarranted" and not understand it to be so. That's my point, and was my point all along.
>Less so than the word "racist". It's hard to argue wanting to import people who commit less crime and less likely to live off welfare is unwarranted.
No reason to believe this. And language doesn't even work like this anyway. You can't just stop a word from being used. It's already in the cultural lexicon.

No argument why "no reason to believe this". And like I said, the difficulty in achieving a goal is not an argument about the rational and moral justification of that goal. Besides, Memes can spread quickly. I could see the right wing adopting "unwarranted tribalism" instead of racism if presented the idea. It's only the left who want to give up the word "racism" due to it's power which kinds proves my point.
Perhaps other parts of society hold that impression too. Lots of people can be wrong about things.
>No argument why "no reason to believe this". And like I said, the difficulty in achieving a goal is not an argument about the rational and moral justification of that goal.
So how are you going to achieve it then? How are you single-handedly going to stop the english world from using "racism" to describe "unwarranted" ethnic prejudice?
>Besides, Memes can spread quickly. I could see the right wing adopting "unwarranted tribalism" instead of racism if presented the idea.
The right-wing, or specifically the alt-right bloc you're referring to doesn't dictate how everyone else uses language.
So you haven't disputed that the reasoning is sound?

In your ideal society, a "liberal" could just accuse someone of being an "unwarranted tribalist" and be wrong. You could say they're wrong but they could say they disagree. How do you square this impasse?
>Do I need to even reply to this? I already have above. You are goalpost moving. After I owned you on the idea that "racism" is subjective and "unwarranted tribalsim" is more precise, you shifter to "how will you alone achieve this?"
You have "owned" no such thing. You merely asserted without evidence, merely prediction, that "unwarrated tribalism" would somehow be used only fairly. No accusation, no label is ever fairly described. Hell by your reasoning "liberal" and "conservative" are worthless because they have many different local, national contexts. A conservative in the UK is not the same as a conservative in the USA.
>The mainstream right is also tired of the word "racism" and the contexts in which it's used today. I would plausibly see them adopting "unwarranted tribalism"
I see no evidence that they would ever do this. And you arguing this in the depths of moviechat is not going to accomplish anything. You are pissing in the wind.
The term "unwarranted tribalist" has a word "unwarranted" in it. Obvious cases of justified tribalism wouldn't work. The ambiguity would be much smaller.

"Unwarranted" is in itself a value judgement. Someone decides whether or not an action or behaviour is warranted or unwarranted. You can't get away from this.
>Maybe those terms need to be replaced with something more precise too.
This is just not how language works. Music genre terminology also has heaps of subjectivity and context on it. Define "Screamo" to me.

Not in situations that are called "racist" today. It's hard to argue not letting in an unknown young Black male in the building in the middle of the night is "unwarranted tribalism". Besides, the term could be even more precisely defined in dictionaries and institutions, like "racism" is (very badly) today.

I would hesitate to let anyone in a block in the middle of the night if I had reason to distrust them. And I wouldn't do that based on race, but more likely rooted in age, voice, reasons for being asked to be let in and probably social class. Lots of chavs in the UK, many of whom, most of whom are white.
>Besides, the term could be even more precisely defined in dictionaries and institutions, like "racism" is (very badly) today.
Except racism isn't defined badly. No single definition of racism is bad (and most definitions provided regarding racism are similar).
And again, you still can't get away from the fact that people would regard some things as "unwarranted" that you wouldn't. Even just the term itself "unwarranted" bereft of association with "racism"
>So you don't think mainstream conservative culture warriors like Matt Walsh are not tired of the word "racism" and the situations it's used?
Matt Walsh is a weirdo. You really would not want him taking up this fight. He thinks that satanism is a serious concern. He might be willing to take up that fight as well.

The point is plenty of people in the left condemned that woman who decided not to let him in. Chavs aren't stabbing each other at the rate of Blacks.

Yes it is. The itself ADL had to change the definition of "racism" something like 3 times in one year and even asked people to help them define it.

Finetuning specifically for political and precise definitions is not remotely abnormal. The formal definition of many terms is different and more specific than its use in casual interaction. This is even the case with music.
"Screamo" has a term of reference used by casual people, and a more specific definition used by music nerds in-the-know.
>Of course some subjectivity would persist, but less than there is now.
Strongly disagree. For one "unwarranted tribalism" has breadth associated with "bigotry". It could apply to any form of assumed prejudice or stereotyping against anyone for a variety of reasons.
>Ok how about a more reasonable conservative? Do you seriously think many conservatives would in principle oppose a more specific term instead of racism. Conservatives in general are tired of the situations this term is used in.
I think most conservatives would find the battle utterly pointless, a waste of time, and simply that language doesn't work that way. Look at how the left has tried to implement LGBT terminology onto wider society, or nonsense terms like "latinx".
And Chavs have a sordid reputation in the UK and its a major underclass involved in a lot of criminality.
In London Blacks as whole are 58% of murder suspects at 13% of the population. Chavs are s subset of Whites, not Whites as a whole. And they still don't behave bad as Blacks. Every ethnic group has some bad people.
Finetuning specifically for political and precise definitions is not remotely abnormal. The formal definition of many terms is different and more specific than its use in casual interaction
So you admit the definition of racist is so inpercise, the ADL itself was forced to change it several times? Then I win. Which other terms so vital to our ideological zeitgeist were changed as much?
Strongly disagree. For one "unwarranted tribalism" has breadth associated with "bigotry". It could apply to any form of assumed prejudice or stereotyping against anyone for a variety of reasons.
I strongly disagree. With a term that that has "unwarranted" in it, this allows the conversation on weather or not the deed is warranted to go forward even if there is disagreement. With "racism" there is no conversation. A leftist would say it's racist, while a conservative would say it's not and that will be the end. The term "racist" is thought/conversation stopper.

The ADL is an organisation involved in specifics, and subject to political bias. All definitions are subject to minor tweaking and alteration organisations like that. Are you aware scientific terms often have definitions dissimilar to casual usage, or have their terminiology updated or even different institutions and physicians have different interpretations?
To say nothing of definitions of philosophical terms.
>I strongly disagree. With a term that that has "unwarranted" in it, this allows the conversation on weather or not the deed is warranted to go forward even if there is disagreement.
And the debate simply shifts to whether or not such a prejudice is "warranted" or "unwarranted". All you've done is move the debate to another term.
>With "racism" there is no conversation. A leftist would say it's racist, while a conservative would say it's not and that will be the end. The term "racist" is thought/conversation stopper.
With "unwarranted" a leftist would say its "unwarranted" whilst a conservative would csay its not.
Also it's still deeply hypocritical you even use the terms "liberal" or "conservative" given how steeped in subjectivity, local definitions and interpretations they are.
>The left has embraced Latinx and other woke term like chestfeeding and birthgivers that suit their ideology.
And how's that been for them? Useless. Note that these aren't even subjective terms as such, we all know what they mean - it's just no-one wants to use them.
You brought up chavs as an example of White crime. You have to show they behave worse than Blacks. And even if they do, they are only sub class of Whites, not Whites as a whole.
All definitions are subject to minor tweaking and alteration organizations like that.
This was the ADL definition of racism until 2020 or George Floyd:
The belief that a particular race is superior or inferior to another, that a person's social and moral traits are predetermined by his or her inborn biological characteristics.
This was after George Floyd:
the marginalization and/or oppression of people of color based on a socially constructed racial hierarchy that privileges White people
This is the latest "intern" definition:
racism “occurs when individuals or institutions show more favorable evaluation or treatment of an individual or group based on race or ethnicity.”
According to the fist Derek Chauvin wouldn't be a racist even if he killed George Floyd for racial reasons unless he believes in genetic superiority. According to the second, Wukesha SUV attacker or Khalid Abdul Muhammad who called for extermination of White babies also cannot be racist because they aren't White. Minor tweaking eh? The definitions of "racism" by the ADL were TOTALLY changed.
And the debate simply shifts to whether or not such a prejudice is "warranted" or "unwarranted". All you've done is move the debate to another term.
It's not always prejudice. THE SITUATION is a very good arbiter weather or not the action or attitude is warranted.
With "unwarranted" a leftist would say its "unwarranted" whilst a conservative would say its not.
No sane person could say not needlessly taking risks for your life to someone you don't owe anything is unwarranted tribalism.
>You brought up chavs as an example of White crime. You have to show they behave worse than Blacks. And even if they do, they are only sub class of Whites, not Whites as a whole.
"Chav" is a subculture. It's not really reflected in crime data. It should be. Or at least divisions between working class, middle class, upper clas etc backgrounds.
>According to the fist Derek Chauvin wouldn't be a racist even if he killed George Floyd for racial reasons unless he believes in genetic superiority.
I have no idea if Derek Chauvin is a racist, but specifically his conduct was out of order and that is what he was eventually convicted for.
>According to the second, Wukesha SUV attacker or Khalid Abdul Muhammad who called for extermination of White babies also cannot be racist because they aren't White. Minor tweaking eh? The definitions of "racism" by the ADL were TOTALLY changed.
He was a racist.
>It's not always prejudice. THE SITUATION is a very good arbiter weather or not the action or attitude is warranted.
And again, the debate changes to "warranted" vs. "unwarranted".
>No sane person could say not needlessly taking risks for your life to someone you don't owe anything is unwarranted tribalism.
What are you referring to here? It's been a while.
Ok so you didn't dispute any of my points when it comes to Chavs
Why are you changing the topic? You claimed ADL engaged in "minor tweaking" I've shown you how they TOTALLY changed the definition. The very organization that gets millions very year doesn't know how to define racism and totally changes several times it within just a few years. That is a valid argument that the word "racism" is very subjective and should be replaced with a more specific word.
Ok thanks for completely ignoring the argument how the situation can differentiate between warranted and unwarranted.
I am referring to a woman who was called racist for not letting into an apartment building a young Black male in the middle of the night when he claimed he lost his keys.
>Ok so you didn't dispute any of my points when it comes to Chavs
My point was that people fear a chav, or someone who appears to be one, just as much as they might an urban black youth.

Not this shit again. I will NOT change my position. Your 'solution' is also steeped in subjectivity. What people consider "warranted" or "unwarranted" also varies, and would incite just as many different arguments. You will not, on your own, remove the use of racism in the english language just because you don't like it.
>Ok thanks for completely ignoring the argument how the situation can differentiate between warranted and unwarranted.
What?
>I am referring to a woman who was called racist for not letting into an apartment building a young Black male in the middle of the night when he claimed he lost his keys.
A particular event? Would this woman also refuse to let in a young white male who claimed the same thing at the same time?
"people fear a chav, or someone who appears to be one, just as much as they might an urban black youth."
Data about this please. Black violent crime is through the roof. Blacks in the UK are 18% of murderers at only 4% of the population. This is 4.5 times their share, which is basically the same as in the US where they are about 58% of murders at 13% of the population. In London Blacks are 58% of murders at 12% of population exactly the same as in US. Yet Blacks in the UK were never slaves and never went through segregation as well as have higher IQs than that of US Blacks due to being somewhat immigration selected.
But still commit essentially the same crime which suggests genetic cause.
I want to replace the term "racist" not because I don't like it, but because the term is inherently deceptive. It implies irrationality and unfairness without ever having to show it by just appealing to the manipulated Overton window. If you want to allege someone's views on race are irrational or unfair, label then as such (not the vague word "racist") and argue it. By labelling it "racist" you automatically win by appealing to stigma and taboos.
Yes she probably would also have reservations with a White man. But even if she wouldn't the racial discrimination is perfectly warranted since Blacks commit much more crime.
There are 34 million mixed-race people in the USA. And most black people in the USA now have been there for multiple generations. Well over 100 years. Where the fuck would they go?
The US could easily split in half by race. There are much historic territorial connections than in Europe or the Middle East.
Many mixed-race people in the UK are not immigrants.
>The US could easily split in half by race. There are much historic territorial connections than in Europe or the Middle East.
And why should they want to? Plenty of Americans are in mixed-race relationships, have many friends from people of different races. Have children who are mixed race.
And again we come to the argument I already gave. The difficulty in achieving a political objective is not an argument against the moral illegitimacy of that objective.
It's also highly American. What about the UK? 2 million mixed-raced people here, many non-white people are completely integrated and culturally british.
(coincidentally the same percentage as US, sounds familiar?) . They were never salves and never had Jim Crow and started mass migrating to UK only after social attitudes towards race became more liberal. Yet they're still committing the same crime as American Blacks.
>Guardian are far left liars. No person with half a brain cell should trust anything they say.
Lying about what?
What makes them far-left?
>(coincidentally the same percentage as US, sounds familiar?) . They were never salves and never had Jim Crow and started mass migrating to UK only after social attitudes towards race became more liberal. Yet they're still committing the same crime as American Blacks.
What makes them far left? They push White guilt, lie about differences, support multiculturalism, deny legitimate concerns about immigration.
Blacks (at least in USA where we have more data) commit more crime even controlled for poverty. Even if poverty could explain all the variable when it comes to crime, it still wouldn't prove they aren't more prone to more poverty (and thus crime) for genetic reasons.
>They push White guilt, lie about differences, support multiculturalism, deny legitimate concerns about immigration.
How does the Guardian as an outlet do this? Provide evidence that all of these things are their editorial line.
The Guardian historically in the UK is a Lib Dem aligned type of paper, a centre-left or centrist sheet. Also I'll await evidence that the data they provided from London is in fact a lie.
>Blacks (at least in USA where we have more data) commit more crime even controlled for poverty. Even if poverty could explain all the variable when it comes to crime, it still wouldn't prove they aren't more prone to more poverty (and thus crime) for genetic reasons.
Natives being robed of their homeland, crime, less social trust, more people on welfare, Islamic terrorism, grooming gangs, culture clash are all not legit concerns according to the guardian

Also, one of the other factors of violent crime is that most of it is committed by men. You could use your arguments here to justify that men as a whole have some genetic defect and/or service can be justifiably denied to them by women in positions of service providers.
In Finland, the average Iraqi migrant (aged 20-24) costs €844k if they choose to have children, costing €1.27 million more than the average Finnish-born family
Worse still, a single Somali immigrant costs the Finnish state almost €1 million

If there was a society made up of almost exclusively women and the policy was to import millions of men to the point of them eventually becoming a majority, the women in that society would have perfect justification in talking about male crime.

Are you supposing that if the percentage of black people in the USA and UK was stuck at 5%, say, you would not be making any arguments like this? You wouldn't be pointing out their overrepresentation in crime data?
And the NHS relies on immigration to fill many SKILLED spots.
And how much do immigrants COST the NHS? Also immigration would not be needed if the government and the media instead of celebrating diversity encouraged natives have more children. That way would could kill two birds with one stone. Less economic cost of immigrants and more workers to fill jobs.

Yes I probably would. What's your point? Both the burden of current minorities is a legit argument as well as their immigration.
Should we allow people to refuse service to men?
Maybe. If some business determines that male customers tend to cause them problems, they shouldn't be prohibited from making that decision. But otherwise like I said, racially separated or segregated society works just fine. Sex one doesn't. reply share

No-one has solved the issues of birthrates. They're coming down in every country. Even in countries which have high birthrates, are seeing them slowly drop. From Korea to Turkey to UK to Brazil to almost everywhere.
Also, most of the NHS money is sucked up by old people. This is well known in the UK.
>Maybe. If some business determines that male customers tend to cause them problems, they shouldn't be prohibited from making that decision. But otherwise like I said, racially separated or segregated society works just fine. Sex one doesn't.
So are you in favour of any business having the right to refuse to service to anyone for any reason?
Hardly anyone has tried. Government incentives in Hungary elevated births from 1.2 to 1.6. Not a insignificant margin. If combined with a change in media/entertainment incentives like conservatives propose, it would likely bring it un to at least replacement level. Secular Jews in Israel have around 2 children per woman and Israel is a rich country. It's not inevitable.

1.33 in 2013 to 1.548 now. A minor improvement. Still below replacement levels.
Not a negligible difference. Combined with media/popular culture encouragement and stigma to those that don't have them, I can easily see it reach 2.1. Even if they don't, I am not against all immigration. We could still prioritize immigrants from China, high caste Hindus and other Europeans. We don't need Blacks and MENAs.
Exceptions that do not prove the rule.
Exceptions have a cause. And they DO PROVE the low births aren't inevitable. Why do you think in Israel even secular Jews have high birth rates?
But you were suggesting that they are now, currently, the largest drain on the NHS. No they are not.
Blacks and Muslims in the UK are more likely to be on benefits, they are more likely to be unemployed and more likely to commit crime
This would lead to serious racial relations breakdowns and persecution.

I do have a very good idea. Conservative culture, the belief they are the chosen people, demographic treat from Muslims or minorities. All those could be applied to West Europeans and White Americans.
Birth rates are dropping almost everywhere, even in African countries.
In third world countries they are expected to drop as they develop. They still aren't critically below replacement. Birth rates dropped in the West just as leftist took over the culture in the 1960s

Or maybe it was just general economically and technological development that fundamentally shift culture surrounding the interest towards people having kids.
Poland and Greece are some of the most conservative countries in Europe, and also have some of the worst birth rates in Europe.
>Current support is not an argument that a hypothetic split would not solve problems.
If you do not have such support, trying to force it would cause serious problems.
One changes culture by admitting the country needs more births otherwise immigrants will change it's identity and probalby turn it worse. Also, why does it need to be done suddenly?

It was more probably feminism, LGBT, pornography, individualism, atheism, YOLO...etc The media openly encourage people having less kids.

Ah yes, people from the Middle-East are notable pro-LGBT, into porn, atheist etc.
LGBT people are not responsible for straight people choosing to have less kids. I don't see why pornography would be directly relevant here. Individualism? I guess. This has as much association with capitalism as it does liberalism. Do you want to live in a totalitarian country if it has higher birth rates?
Atheism? Poland and Greece say hi with their shoddy birth rates, amongst the worst in the UK. Also Islamic world again.

More LGBT = less children. Not a huge difference compared to feminism, atheism...etc, but some.

Young men have less desire to pursue women when they have all the porn available to them

Religion is high among the older ones. Old people aren't having children. The youth is influenced by Western culture

The left censors information regarding race differences which leads to false beliefs races are equal and interchangeable which leads to political agreement with immigration
If all those Western cultural reason aren't a reason for low births, then what is it? It's not economic prosperity. Even you said poor countries still have low births.

I’ve heard of this suggestion before. It would be remarkably popular and you just know the first people to be rushing away from blacks would be the champagne Socialists like Skavau.
This is exactly what I support. I originally suggested something like this for media: there should be shows and movies with casts that are racially homogeneous, with White being the main group in the U.S. and Europe, as well as mixed-race casts. This gives people the most options. As you put it so clearly, this idea can also be applied to countries.
How is a personal story of someone who changed their views an example of a double standards from White identatarians? I can give you plenty of examples of people who were leftists but then became right wingers, myself to start.
You will have to be more specific then in what you will and won't accept. I would argue that a clear example of 'double standards' from a White identitarians (people who are called "White supremacists") with regards to race would be accepting a partner of a different race as an equal. More examples:
Those are not double standards. There are practical consequences of marrying outside your race. Nobody has an obligation to race mix. The left doesn't think twice when a Black person explicitly says he/she would prefer to marry within his/her race. But when a White person explicitly says so, he/she has to apologize. The left has double standards, not White identatarians.
Those are not double standards. There are practical consequences of marrying outside your race.
I'm sorry but this just special pleading. If one believes in the 'superiority' of one's race one does not accept a representative of another as an equal, let alone promise to 'love honour and obey'. The infamous Miscegenation Laws of the past show how racists then viewed such things as unacceptable.
The left doesn't think twice when a Black person explicitly says he/she would prefer to marry within his/her race. But when a White person explicitly says so, he/she has to apologize.
This is irrelevant and just your opinion; but thank you anyway.
And I note you didn't offer examples of white supremacist hypocrisy you would accept. I wonder why?

There are plenty of downsides of race mixing, from lower IQ to higher chance of domestic abuse and divorce, to identity crisis of mixed race children. Nobody has an obligation to race mix, so refusing to do so is not a double standard unless you push other to do so, but won't yourself.
This is irrelevant and just your opinion; but thank you anyway.
No, it's a valid argument unless you can show this isn't the case.
And I note you didn't offer examples of white supremacist hypocrisy you would accept. I wonder why?
There would be hypocrisy.....if they say demanded independence and purity for White countries, but pushed for multiracialism for brown countries. But they don't.
The scientific consensus is that there is no evidence that mixed race people have lower IQs than white people or other racial groups. Difference in academic test scores, if any, have different reasons than 'race':
"The black-white test score gap does not appear to be an inevitable fact of nature. It is true that the gap shrinks only a little when black and white children attend the same schools... But despite endless speculation, no one has found genetic evidence indicating that blacks have less innate intellectual ability than whites."
In the UK, some African groups for instance have higher average educational attainment and standardized test scores than the overall population.
The difficulty could be because modern science has concluded that race is a socially constructed phenomenon rather than a biological reality, and there exist various conflicting definitions of intelligence. Today, the scientific consensus is that genetics does not explain differences in IQ test performance between groups, and that observed differences are environmental in origin. Pseudoscientific claims of inherent differences in intelligence between races have played a central role in the history of scientific racism. But, keep going...
to higher chance of domestic abuse and divorce
,
This at least is true. police reports in the US show that the prevalence of mutual assault is 31,2% in interracial couples, which is at least twice larger than the prevalence rate in monoracial couples. However few would agree that this is a reason to argue in favour of white supremacism since it would seem a matter of education and culture while seeking a genetic proclivity for wife-beating would be a hard ask
"The left doesn't think twice when a Black person explicitly says he/she would prefer to marry within his/her race. But when a White person explicitly says so, he/she has to apologize. " it's a valid argument unless you can show this isn't the case.
As it is you making the claim, unfortunately the onus of proof is also with you.
to identity crisis of mixed race children
I suppose it has never occurred to you that black children, say, may be exposed to stereotypes and discrimination due to their genetic and phenotypic makeup, which can challenge their search for a positive sense of identity?
.if they say demanded independence and purity for White countries, but pushed for multiracialism for brown countries
But if they have been demanding purity for the white population in general and then marry a black person in particular that still doesn't count? I see. It really is an obvious example such as you ask for, your special pleading notwithstanding. Love of a different person is 'not the practical consequences' of marrying outside your race, but, logically vice versa.
There is also the inherent double standards of those supremacists who discover their DNA tells a different story:
There's hypocrisy when they try still arguing for racial supremacy. As some one who, it turns out, is not white after all according to science, the double standard is then arguing for white supremacy (naturally trying to explain or ignoring inconvenient test results away) while still expecting equality themselves but nevertheless part ethnic. Another example there then.

This is complete rubbish. All studies on mixed race children show scores are in the middle of races of their parents. "Bad schools" myths has been debunked to death. Rich Black children score worse on SAT and IQ than poor White children. The claim that genetics cannot be identified as a source for IQ difference is the "equality of the gaps" argument similar to creationists. Science hasn't identified all the genes for intelligence yet, so you can't 100% prove genetics is the cause. All other circumstantial evidence says otherwise.
- Blacks adopted by White families score almost just as low as other Blacks.
- Blacks have smaller brains
- Controlling for SES Blacks still score lower on IQ test and SAT.
- Black and White IQ gap is most present in subtests that are the most heritable (where twins score the most similar) strongly suggesting a genetic cause.
- Blacks in the UK also score lower and didn't have segregation or slavery despite being somewhat IQ selected by immigration
- Mixed race people with more White admixture score higher than those with more Black admixture
- There isn't a single example of an affluent Black run society in the entire world...etc, etc.

You may wish to ask one of those many Asians who, apparently are brighter than whites - and do better on other social scores too.
I shan't be answering all your points, some which have more merit than others for reason of space. I chose one at random, that of brain sizes between whites and blacks. You claim that white brain are larger. A number of studies have indeed reported a moderate statistical correlation between differences in IQ and brain size between individuals in the same group. And some scholars have reported differences in average brain sizes between racial groups, although this is unlikely to be a good measure of IQ as brain size also differs between men and women, but without significant differences in IQ. At the same time newborn black children have the same average brain size as white children, suggesting that the difference in average size could be accounted for by differences in environment. I hope that helps.
Science hasn't identified all the genes for intelligence yet, so you can't 100% prove genetics is the cause.
My point really; and so QED. Thank you.
I think I have provided an obvious double standard among white supremacists, Nazis and racists even though you have tried to explain it away when it is an obvious thing to mention. I have no idea btw what the current exchange about the supposed intelligence of different peoples has to do with that although it seems to exercise you a lot. Even if a person or group is shown to be less intelligent is it really acceptable to find that a reason to decry them? So that will do for me.
Wrong. The correlation between brain size and IQ is about 0.3 - 0.4. A moderate correlation. Genes get expressed as one ages. That is why adults look more different from each other as babies and toddlers. This is the reason for increase in brain size differences and IQ with age. Male and female brain size differences are due to visual-spatial differences. Men are better at navigating long distances which makes evolutionary sense since they were hunters. Larger brain size of men actually IS a cause of male - female visual spatial scores.
My point really; and so QED. Thank you.

Research suggests that IQ scores can be stable across the lifespan, but this stability can be influenced by various factors such as the type of test used, practice with such tests, the presence of developmental disorders, as well as, yes, genetic factors.

As previously noted, correlation is not cause.
Race is a real biological phenomenon" - Evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins, 2022
2019 meta analysis on heritability of race found no significant differences suggesting the gap is genetic
er yes indeedy; they say
"Heritabilities, however, did not substantially differ by race or ethnicity.We found that White, Black, and Hispanic heritabilities were consistently moderate to high, and that these heritabilities did not differ across groups. At least in the United States, Race/Ethnicity × Heritability interactions likely do not exist. "
which, to my reading means that the difference between peoples is small and not likely to be due to genetics. QED.
I am not saying that there are no differences between different types of humans; only that it suits some to exaggerate things to bolster their prejudices. Such as when only the 'disadvantages' thought of for whites when considering mixed races. I don't celebrate that.
I only need to prove probability not certainty given the context of the issue. Nobody is proposing sterilization of other races. Only stop blaming Whites for their failure and stop mass immigration.

Exactly; and you are the one favouring correlation and causes in favour of black IQ are you not? In addition your link definitely claims Race/Ethnicity × Heritability interactions' likely do not exist,' which rather rules out your warning about mixed races.
Again, one has to wonder why you are concerned with decrying the supposed lower intelligence of blacks while ignoring stupid white people. One also wonders why people should not be allowed to mingle and marry as they please.

'Race' is not a biological fact, as already explained. IQ is real, although questions of how exactly it is expressed and measured are vexed.
Yes it is. People who deny it do it because they think it makes them good people. Also you didn't answer my question. Do you deny that it is likely Blacks have lower IQs due to genes than Whites?
Exactly; and you are the one favoring correlation and causes in favors of black IQ are you not? In addition your link definitely claims Race/Ethnicity × Heritability interactions' likely do not exist,' which rather rules out your warning about mixed races.
What are you talking about?? You said my source showing no heritability differences between races proves IQ equality. I showed you it proves exact opposite. Do you still not understand what the study I linked shows?

You claimed this, but it is a misinterpretation as already explained. No heritability differences mean any difference come from things other than genes eg environment. I hope that helps
Do you deny that it is likely Blacks have lower IQs due to genes than Whites?
There are undeniable test results which show whites doing better than blacks. Whether or not these are sufficient determinants of IQ is not certain.They don't show a hereditary cause. The main point is that IQ itself might likely be affected by environment and other external factors. But even if we accept your claim, it is still not acceptable to discriminate on the basis of supposed intelligence; the implication is that low IQ is being used as a reason to do that and to argue for racial purity. And we all know where that went in the past.
What the hell are you talking about dude?
Read it again: why you are concerned with decrying the supposed lower intelligence of blacks while ignoring stupid white people? Your implication that mixed-races are not desirable or 'not celebrated' is an attack on personal freedom.
The Black and White IQ gap is not closing
Another unsubtantiated claim.
A more nuanced picture as usual can be found here:
"The Black-White Test Score Gap: Why It Persists and What Can Be Done...African Americans score lower than European Americans on vocabulary, reading, and math tests, as well as on tests that claim to measure scholastic aptitude and intelligence... . It has narrowed since 1970.. This statistic does not imply, of course, that all blacks score below all whites. [your sort of extrapolation] The gap has narrowed... There is no direct genetic evidence for or against the theory that the black-white gap is innate, because we have not yet identified the genes that affect skills like reading, math, and abstract reasoning."
Biologically speaking is just isn't; sorry about that.
Yes it is. Just because our entire society denies it because it can't handle the political consequences doesn't mean it's not true. Is human biodiversity randomly distributed in all humanity or does it come in cluster corresponding to geographic areas? Then race exists.
People who deny it know good science.
No they don't. "It's NONSENSE to say race is a social construct" - Evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins, 2022
No heritability differences mean any difference come from things other than genes eg environment.
ROTFL. No heritability differences means environment is NOT the cause. You still don't understand.
They don't show a hereditary cause. The main point is that IQ itself might likely be affected by environment and other external factors. But even if we accept your claim, it is still not acceptable to discriminate on the basis of supposed intelligence;
Circumstantial evidence all points to genetic cause:
- Subtest heritability
- Admixture studies
- Adoption studies
- Polygenic studies
- IQ controlled for SES
- Brain size studies
- Real world success
why you are concerned with decrying the supposed lower intelligence of blacks while ignoring stupid white people? Your implication that mixed-races are not desirable or 'not celebrated' is an attack on personal freedom.
When was I ignoring stupid Whites? No, outlawing interracial marriage is an attack on personal freedom. Not celebrating is not attack on anything.
It has narrowed since 1970
No, it hasn't. If you control for an increased amount of mixed race people who are classified as "Black" as well as immigrant Blacks who are IQ selected, Black IQ is still 83 according to a study from 2023.
" Biologically speaking is just isn't; sorry about that."
Yes it is. Just because our entire society denies it ..

No heritability differences means environment is NOT the cause. You still don't understand.
I would say the same about you and repeating your error does not make it right. At the very least most researchers conclude that external forces can have an influence.
No, outlawing interracial marriage is an attack on personal freedom.
Something we can both agree on.

Unfortunately you often do more that just this. Justifying hate for instance.

In other words move the goalposts. Even your link admits that any difference is "This law is more a stylized fact than a law".
And as asked before, the more important question still is: is it really right to discriminate against, even hate minorities because of their perceived lower intelligence which it seems as if you are doing. Claims of differences in intelligence between races have been used to justify colonialism, slavery, racism, social Darwinism, and racial eugenics. Do you 'celebrate' that too?

A direct quote from conclusions on 1998 conference on race:
"Negativism to the race concept which became apparent during the last decades, in many respects might be explained by the psychological shock which all progressive humanity had felt in the epoch of Hitlerism"
Why would the hatred of other races be just mere 'resentment'?
Because of their behavior. Make a disnction between irrational hatred and legit resentment.
To keep you seeming racist in using this factor to discriminate only against blacks.
If stupid and violent Whites had an obvious visible tell tale that they're likely stupid and violent, I would not oppose using that external sing to be used so people can protect themselves. Also separation into smart and stupid people in a country has never took place and is unpractical (you could have to children one smart and one stupid), while ethnic separation can work just fine.
If you suddenly decided to control for an increased amount of mixed race people in assessing black IQ that is goalpost moving.
How so? Your claim was that Black and White IQ has narrowed. If Blacks just became more White it hasn't narrowed.
I used IQ to argue against mass immigration and blaming Whites for problems of Blacks. Also economic cost. Perfectly valid grievances. If they weren't a burden on Whites, I would not feel any negativity on them due to their intelligence.

Ok, how do the courts distinguish it? I DO distinguish it. Resenting Asians (in the US) is irrational hatred because they behave well, integrate and aren't mass migrating (at least East Asians). Resenting Blacks and Muslims (as long as you express it through the ballot box and not in your personal life) is legit resentment because those groups behave problematically and do mass migrate. Pretty simple.

So you can't answer how much of "great extent" means? Genetics has never been disproven as the cause of different behavior between races.

Then show me where has science debunked a possibility that genetics could be the cause of racial differences in behavior? Twin studies show identical twins separated behave more similarly to each other than siblings raised in same household. We know genetics matter when it comes to behavior. With that in mind, since races behave differently it's very possible they do so out of genetics.

Even if race raelly was a social construct (which I DO NOT concede) the argument in this context would still be valid. Replace race with ethnicity.

How would they raise their reservations without being accused of "hate"?

If there is a strong correlation between race and behavior, and the government is importing that ethic group, would it not make sense to oppose importing that ethnic group? Or to condemn that ethic group's culture which is the cause of that behavior? How would you distinguish that from "hate"?

"Where I quoted the UK legal definitions of hate. Nowhere is mere grievance included."
So you admit even the legal system cannot distinguish raising ethnic grievances and irrational hate? How do you know then that what you label "hate" isn't justified grievances? (which HAVE to be allowed in a democracy)
" Hate: feel intense dislike for. Grievance: real or imagined cause for complaint. "
OK by which standard then you include what people like Tommy Robinson or Anne Marie Waters say is "hate" and not justified ethnic grievance?

You did not answer my question. Another evasion.
"A lot of things are possible. But are they likely? The biological and social sciences generally agree that race is a social construct, not a precise representation of human genetic variation."
That same mainstream science acknowledges that there are average genetic differences between the races. (or populations whatever you like to call them).
"If your assertion is otherwise then the onus on proof is yours."
The context was me challanging you how do you know there aren't racial differences in predispostion to behavior. The burden is on you. My evidence is everything except identifiying actual genes (which can't be the standard since science isn't as advanced yet to do so). IQ studies, twin studies, adoption studies, brain size studuies, behavioral differences, IQ controlled for SES and education, IQ subtest heritability, school performance, welfare use, crime rates, single motherhood rates, sucess and GDP growth of countries....etc.
So you admit even the legal system cannot distinguish raising ethnic grievances and irrational hate? How do you know then that what you label "hate" isn't justified grievances?
The legal definition of hate is quite clear, and 'legit grievance' does not work as a defence. Please see my reply to your argument earlier and before that, ad nauseam. It may work for you playing hate down, and to special plead, but it won't work, and hasn't before the law.
OK by which standard then you include what people like Tommy Robinson or Anne Marie Waters say is "hate" and not justified ethnic grievance?
By the clear definition of the law, including case law.x. Hate is not 'legit'. Nor does 'grievance' give the right to defame come to that EG
You did not answer my question. How would they raise their reservations without being accused of "hate"
By staying within the national and international law on hate which, as I have shown, has been the basis of frequent, successful prosecutions, based on clear definitions also shown. Please move on.
science acknowledges that there are average genetic differences between the populations
There is only about 0.1% of genetic variation between any two people while 'racial purity' does not exist. You have been told this before.
you how do you know there aren't racial differences in predispostion to behavior. The burden is on you.
There is no such thing as biological race. Also your question asks to me to prove that your idea is incorrect so it is you making the initial claim. Sorry about that.
My evidence is everything except identifiying actual genes
lol
See above, also where I repeat the scientific truism that there is more difference within racial groups than outside them.About 85% of human genetic variation is found within populations, while only 15% is found between populations. You try too hard to justify what becomes, in some hands very unpleasant and criminous.

So you admit that the legal system does not allow ANY way for indigenous Whites to raise their legit ethnic grievances? That it doesn't even attempt to distinguish irrational hate and legit concerns? Yet you still accuse the right of "irrational hat" and claim it's not about legit grievances? That pretty much proves my case that what you label "hate" is justified and that the law is unjust to it's own indigenous ethnic group. They are being replaced in their own country by worse behaving ethnic groups, they were never asked and are censored and smeared and even prosecuted if they fight back.
By staying within the national and international law on hate which, as I have shown, has been the basis of frequent, successful prosecutions, based on clear definitions also shown
Most have stayed within the law. Mark Collet or Ane Marie Waters have never been convicted or hate. They are however accused of "hate" by the media and people like you and censored and smeared under it's justification. Yet nobody cannot disguise how what they is "hate" as opposed legit ethnic grievance. How would they raise ethnic grievances for native Brits without anyone accusing them of "hate"? Give me an example or admit the accusation of "hate" against them is unfair.
Even leftist admit there is 15% genetic variation between races. No science has ever proven this difference cannot be the cause of IQ, life success and crime differences. We know from twin studies that all important human psychological traits (intelligence, antisocial behavior, conscienscousness, agreeableness, psychopathy) are heavily genetic. If thre are differences between ethnic groups in behavior this strongly suggests it's due to genes. Blacks in London are 58% of murder suspects at 13% of the population. They were never slaves and or suffered from segregation. Asians in the US were discriminated against and have lower crime rates and more successful than Whites.

Who cares? They're not arrested by your own admission. No-one stops them forming political parties and running for office, as they do. They are just deeply unpopular and can't get elected. It's not the role of the state to give them a form of political affirmative action and uplift their position. They are not owed political representation.
But that's my point. Why do they deserve to be deeply unpopular? What that they do is inherently immoral? You can disagree, but the left doesn't just disagree. They are outraged over Mark Collet and Anne Marie Waters. What is the justification for outrage?
the legal system distinguishes quite readily between a grievance and a hate crime.
Then name the distinction for me. How would Sam Melia raise his political grievance (and raise it just as effectively) in a democracy like the UK without being prosecuted and convicted?
So native Brits aren't becoming a minority? Or is somehow not a legit grievance? How? Arguments please.
By using unhateful speech
Define "hateful". Precise definition please. Examples please. How would they raise all grievances and present good arguments for their politics without being accused of hate?
Again ignoring the point. How do we know that the small genetic difference between populations (or whatever you want to call them instead of "race") cannot be cause of IQ or crime propensity differences? If there are differences in height and lactose intolerance, why not behavoral predispostions?
>But that's my point. Why do they deserve to be deeply unpopular?
Because racism, or specifically, the concept of constructing policy that treats people differently based on their heritage is unpopular. You don't get to just demand that it isn't unpopular.
>What that they do is inherently immoral? You can disagree, but the left doesn't just disagree. They are outraged over Mark Collet and Anne Marie Waters. What is the justification for outrage?
Mark Collett once celebrated the deaths of Africans and gay people over AIDs. He's also currently the leader of Patriotic Alternative which is an outright neo-nazi organisation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patriotic_Alternative
Anne-Marie Waters is jsut vociferously anti-muslim. I don't believe she's actually expressed any specific racist positions.
>Then name the distinction for me. How would Sam Melia raise his political grievance (and raise it just as effectively) in a democracy like the UK without being prosecuted and convicted?
There's no right to have it "raised effectively". Not sure what you mean there. Winning elections? He could just do all the things that Mark Collett and Anne-Marie Waters have done, both of whom are not in jail.
the concept of constructing policy that treats people differently based on their heritage is
Nope that's a straw man of the nationalist position. We only demand equal treatment of Whites as non Whites. If they get to have identity/nativism/safe spaces/intergroup preference so should we. Most WN do not believe a bad White person should be treated better than a good Black. WN have no double standards when it comes to race with their ideological principles. The left has many.
More ad hominem. We are talking about political principles. That's not why they are outraged. The left would be outraged over Mark Collet even if he didn't made un PC jokes. They are outraged because he dares to be explicitly pro White, while explicitly pro Black is not only allowed but encouraged. Also they are outraged over Anne Marie Waters and Tommy Robinson and they are far from Neo Nazis. Also leftist Wokey-pedia is not an objective source.
I don't believe she's actually expressed any specific racist positions.
Yet the left is still outraged over her and calls her racist and fascist.
There's no right to have it "raised effectively".
If the main indigenous ethnic group are not allowed to raise their grievances, then the UK is not a democratic society. Or a fair one too. Blacks and minorities ARE allowed to raise their alleged grievances which is a direct example of double standards and unfairness to Whites. As for "effectively", this is like saying a team is allowed to play football as long as they don't play effectively and don't come near a goal.
Ane and Mark were less vocal and thus less effective in getting the message out. Your argument is like saying to an attack player who has come near a goal and received a red card simply for being near a goal by a biased referee: "You should have done what defense players have done, they haven't received a red card".

A straw man. I simply say that the legal system distinguishes quite readily between a grievance and a hate crime.

In future, since you are now repeating this nonsense I will refer you to this fact.

The UK has had several pieces of legislation addressing race discrimination, including the Race Relations Act 1965, the Race Relations Act 1968, and the Equality Act 2010 open to all who feel aggrieved about discrimination. I hope that helps.

The point was leftist hypocrisy of demanding racial equality of Whites and Blacks, but having no problem of differences between Whites and Asians (US).
Er.. so this difference one of the reasons you implied caused the recent immigration riot? ("Taking our jobs,benefits and homes" etc) Thought so.
Those are all legit grievances. If Whites were poring to Sri Lanka and becoming a majority, the left would scream of ethnic injustice to native Sri Lankans. Not to mention if they would be committing more crime, taking more from the government...etc
LOL

The context of our particular debate here is correlation of external appearance and behavior and weather or not can be useful information.
Yes: a 'context' of things skin deep and behaviour you see as genetic even when now, at least, you say"Race does not have to biologically exist" ...And please learn how to spell 'whether'.
How many such White riots in Iceland, Finland or Estonia (ethnically homogenous).
Which if true, goes against your previous claims that (black) bad behaviour was based on genes...
You think current UK riots would be happening if the UK was 99% White?
Lost of evidence suggesting genes are the reason for Black violence.
"Race does not have to biologically exist here" lol Make yer mind up!
Evasionoted
"If you want to discriminate against a guy with a painted face wearing a giant Viking hat who storms congress, that's fine by me." I said the courts did that.
[OK to discriminate against others] if you are importing people from other countries with lower intelligence.
you don't have a comeback by ignoring the argument and simply labelling it "excuse".
It is wrong to discriminate on the basis of 'intelligence' and it is an excuse for racism since we do not exclude, say whites, in favour of the 'more intelligent' Asians.
The point was leftist hypocrisy of demanding racial equality of Whites and Blacks, but having no problem of differences between Whites and Asians
Whites and black are not 'races'.
"Taking our jobs,benefits and homes" etc) Thought so. Those are all legit grievances
But economically illiterate. However as I have shown 'legit grievance' is not the same as a hate crime.
Which if true, goes against your previous claims that (black) bad behavior was based on genes...
How so? You said White riots in the UK are not due to diversity. How are lack of riots in ethnically homogenous countries not a valid counter argument?
You have an unduly deterministic view of UK history to suit an agenda.
This is what I said:
You think current UK riots would be happening if the UK was 99% White?
lol Make yer mind up!
Those were two different contexts and two different arguments
It is wrong to discriminate on the basis of 'intelligence' and it is an excuse for racism since we do not exclude, say whites, in favor of the 'more intelligent' Asians.
Yes we do. Asians are wealthier than Whites, have higher education and nobody complains about that and calls it Asian supremacy. All I propose we apply the same standards to Whites.
Whites and black are not 'races'.
A really pathetic dodge
But economically illiterate. However as I have shown 'legit grievance' is not the same as a hate crime.
How is it economically illiterate? You failed to distinguish legit grievance and hate which is what I asked.

Because correlation is not cause, nearly every o country has some diversity, and it is hard to find a country which, at some point has not had a riot. Your arguments and self serving and unduly simplistic.
You think current UK riots would be happening if the UK was 99% White?
The UK has had riots before during which times it was not so high in ethnic content. As for your question, people will always seek to blame outsiders or newcomers for their 'legit grievances', In short there is no way of knowing, although I suspect you think you do lol.
Asians are wealthier than Whites, have higher education and nobody complains about that
Of course every country has had some types of riots. But racial riots (like the one recent in the UK) is a result of diversity. If the UK was 99% White, this riot would not happen. It also probably wouldn't happen if the UK imported Europeans and Chinese instead of Africans and Muslims.
people will always seek to blame outsiders or newcomers
Then why aren't they blaming the Chinese?
An opinion of a far left newspaper is proof of discrimination of Asians? Also Covid was a special situation because the virus originated there. Also you changing the topic. The point was that higher Asian SES is not seen as a problem while higher White SES is. A double standard against Whites.
It is true though, please see previous posts.
Ok thanks for your opinion on weather races exist, but you are ignoring the point. I'm getting sick of this from you. I never ignore your points or try to change the direction.
Or, check the dictionary for the separate and distinct definitions of 'hate' and 'grievance'.
But racial riots (like the one recent in the UK) is a result of diversity.
Those who fanned the flames online were more scapegoating immigrants than 'diversity' per se.

Thank you for your opinion, but even if true it probably tells us more of the types of bigotry and racism common to the English than the faults of those ethnic groups you always like to suggest.

Well then stop using obsolete terms (and repeating yourself, more and more, it seems)
How about you link them to me?
How about you look back in our conversation when I helpfully pasted the two quite different definitions? And I remember too that you have already told me that you can in fact tell the difference. So that is you who can, those juries who convict haters and the legal system. The only outliers, it would seem, are those obdurate who try and confuse things with the special pleading that hate and grievance are really just the same.

So if the UK imported Chinese and they caused less problems, it would be proof of how the English are bigoted? In other words, minorities have no agency, their behavior should never be taken into account?
"And see"
Like I already said Covid was a special situation. If it originated in Germany, then Germans would most probably be likely victims of Covid era discrimination. Also if Chinese are discriminated and they still cause less crime, that suggests Black crime is not a result of discrimination.
don't you usually assert that Asians are not a real problem?
Asians are not the problem and I never said Asian higher SES should be seen as one. It's just that lower Black SES should not be seen as one either and that the left is hypocritical for complaining about one, but not the other.
You still don't understand my argument. I can tell the difference between grievance and hate under MY definition of hate. The left has a different definition of hate (more broad one) that is why allege that
perfectly legit grievances from Whites fall under their definition of hate. Their definition of hate does not make sense since according to their definition, Whites aren't able to raise their grievances without being accused of hate (either legally or if not legally then in society). If Whites aren't able to raise their grievances without being if not persecuted at least censored, then the UK is not a democratic society. That is why I'm asking how would they differentiate the two.

If you mean by 'taken into account' that they should be stereotyped to work social policy, through scientific racism, then the answer is, still, no, See elsewhere for questions of white behaviour, past and present to be taken into account on your same basis,
Also if Chinese are discriminated and they still cause less crime, that suggests Black crime is not a result of discrimination
Now all you have to do is show that Chinese and Blacks face the same discriminations and, further, to assume correlation is cause. I would say that the discrimination is different in both level, manner and context.

The distinction I am discussing is the one determined by successful prosecutions and the definition of clear laws. It is true that some commentators exaggerate and misrepresent to make their ideological case; but this is just as true of the Right as well, as I have seen with you. A lot of the Right air their grievances quite openly and without consequences all the time in the media without being in the least abashed by adverse criticism or suffering consequences. reply share
You still don't get it. The left isn't just claiming that individual minorities can be victims in specific situations. They are claiming that they are victims collectively. What I'm saying is that they are only victims collectively if they are discriminated more than how they behave. If their alleged discrimination is a result of their aggregate behavior, then they are not victims.
Whites behaved no worse than others in the past and today behave the best. In fact, today they behave in a destructively pathological altruistic way.
Ok thanks for your opinion, but where is your argument that Black crime has to be a result of discrimination. My theory is that discrimination is the cause of Black crime. Chinese were discriminated in the past (today almost zero) yet they still commit much less crime.
"The distinction I am discussing is the one determined by successful prosecutions"
Yet you are still yet to list that distinction to me. And even if you do it has to allow for White ethnic grievances to be heard, otherwise the country cannot claim to be democratic, free and fair.

Blacks are significantly more likely (24% vs 15%) to be on income related benefits than Whites. They also get more tax benefits and housing benefits. Blacks as well as Asians also get more child benefits. As for all state benefits, Whites are much OLDER than minorities so they are more likely to be pensioners.
"Our estimates for the overall immigrant population residing in the UK between 1995
and 2011 show that immigrants from EEA countries made a positive contribution over
that period of more than L4 billion, while those from non-EEA countries made a
negative contribution of L118 billion"
"EEA immigrants have not only consistently had a
higher revenues/expenditures ratio than natives but have often made positive fiscal
contributions even in years when the amount of public expenditure on natives has
been larger than natives’ fiscal payments. On the other hand, the fiscal contribution of
non-EEA immigrants is slightly negative in all years."
Please make it clear whether you are discussing blacks or immigrants. I am unclear which group you are complaining about this time (with 'legitimate grievance' of course)
As for all state benefits, Whites are much OLDER than minorities so they are more likely to be pensioners.

No it does not. Everyone gets old. Nobody choses to get old. You chose to live off welfare and commit crime though. Minorities will get old someday too. Minorities chosing to be a burden is a valid ethnic grievance against them and a good argument to stop importing them in mass.
So even you don't deny that they are a negative contribution? The whole point of immigration is supposedly economic benefit, even if they are a cost only 1 pound it's enough to not import them. And this "slightly negative" sounds much worse if you compare them to European immigrants who are VERY good contribution:
"EEA immigrants have not only consistently had a
higher revenues/expenditures ratio than natives but have often made positive fiscal
contributions even in years when the amount of public expenditure on natives has

Chinese are usually less discriminated against as, basically, they are not brown or black. In the UK however there is clear discrimination against those other ethnic groups. Starting in the late 1960s, for instance anti-Indian racism began to affect British Indians as they became victims of racist violence and other forms of racial discrimination at the hands supporters of far-right, anti-immigration and racist political parties such as the National Front (NF) and the British National Party (BNP). https://edm.parliament.uk/early-day-motion/58678/rise-of-antiindian-racism

In the US Indians are by far the richest group and they generally don't complain about discrimination nearly as much as Blacks.

Never the less immigrants' taxes are needed to help pay the pensions of an increasingly elderly white population in the UK.

Seems to me like we have made well case to import more White immigrants and less brown ones.
Seems to me that you think 'natives' means ethnics rather than the existing UK population generally. That again tells me more about you than can be recommended,
Stereotyping refers to an individual. We are not dealing with an individual, but a group
"No, recent immigrants to the UK are less likely to claim benefits than people born in Britain."
Race data please. With regards to economic contribution EEA (White) immigrants are way better than non EEA (non White) so it's very likely Black and Muslim immigrants are more likely to be on benefits than White immigrants.
"Never the less immigrants' taxes are needed to help pay the pensions of an increasingly elderly white population in the UK."
Which immigrants? Also any immigrants wouldn't be needed if births were to increase. The ruling elite didn't even try to do that.
"Seems to me that you think 'natives' means ethnics rather than the existing UK population generally."
Stereotyping refers to an individual. We are not dealing with an individual, but a group
According to Merriam-Webster, stereotyping is the act of holding a standardized mental picture of a group of people that is often oversimplified, biased, or prejudiced. Sorry about that.
Race data please.
Please look back to where I tell you about 'race'. But illegal immigrants are not entitled to benefits in the UK. The only financial help available to refugees is a refugee integration loan, Unemployed migrants are also less likely to claim unemployment benefits than unemployed people born in the UK. "Recent immigrants are 43% (17 percentage points) less likely to receive state benefits or tax credits. These differences are partly attributable to immigrants’ more favourable age-gender composition. However, even when compared with natives of the same age, gender composition, and education, recent immigrants are still 39% less likely than natives to receive benefits." https://www.ucl.ac.uk/economics/about-department/fiscal-effects-immigration-uk
""Never the less immigrants' taxes are needed to help pay the pensions of an increasingly elderly white population in the UK." Which immigrants?
Does it matter> If they pay taxes it goes in the pot. Diversion noted.
Also any immigrants wouldn't be needed if births were to increase.
Maybe not, but unfortunately most birth rates are falling in the west. Immigrants in the UK are also needed of course for all those jobs the locals just can't be persuaded to do.

It's based on data. Since the issue is importation of certain ethnic groups and weather or not we should be taking them, we have to use aggregate data about ethnic groups. Your perspective is a typical example of myopic individualism. Deliberately ignoring the forest for the trees.
Again ignoring racial differences which is the main point of our debate.
"Does it matter> If they pay taxes it goes in the pot. Diversion noted."
What? Yes it matters because immigrants from certain countries are a benefit while those from others are a cost. That is precisely our disagreement here. I am not opposed to Western immigrants in the UK. There is no diversion and you know it.
Nope, one cannot change ethnicity by simply getting citizenship. I bet you wouldn't consider a Russian living in Sir Lanka "native" if asked in a different context.
Your perspective is a typical example of myopic individualism.
No; it is an example of giving a standard definition. Sorry about that.
Again ignoring racial differences
Please see earlier, you know where I have explained that, scientifically speaking 'race' does not exist. Most differences are, literally, skin deep.
we have to use aggregate data about ethnic groups.
I certainly agree that when planning for different communities then information about their proven particular needs and issues need to be included. However this is not the same as negatively stereotyping in order to exclude them en masse. And that data must be based on firm scientific and ethical principles.
immigrants from certain countries are a benefit while those from others are a cost.
This has been covered before and you have been shown wrong, or the differences in costs are minimal. Please look back.

It is just the others, whom you stereotype to whom you object. Those with darker skins. Got it.

"However this is not the same as negatively stereotyping in order to exclude them en masse."
Again how do you define stereotype? Does it mean the belief has to be false? Ethnic differences in behavior are factually true. There is nothing immoral about excluding certain ethnic groups from your country and especially not if they tend to cause problems. The purpose of countries is that different ethnic groups have their homelands. No group owes inclusion to anyone else. If Japanese don't like the Chinese, they aren't obligated to take millions of them in their country just like we aren't obligated to take in Pakistanis. Even if our perceptions about Pakistanis were false, we still wouldn't be obligated to take them and they are far from false given the data.

They're trying to get away from their fellow ethnic comrades and get to us.
Well spotted.
Yet they complain they're oppressed by us, not themselves.
Perhaps because, despite all our fine words and implied superiority, we sometimes offer hatred and inequality to them. Oh sorry, we offer 'legit grievances' and discriminate on that mild basis.

Yes there is a correlation between IQ and political stability and low crime.
There is no reason to discriminate on reason of 'intelligence' in whole groups since differences within groups are more than without them.
Yes there is a reason to discriminate on the basis of intelligence as long as we don't have the ability to read other people's minds. Employers tend to give IQ test to candidates.
On this basis, using your novel logic, they ought to be sent back to Europe where they came from.
Where are Whites swarming into East Asian countries? Where are Whites rioting and demanding stuff from Asians in East Asian countries?
Which sort of sums up the depth of your reasoning.
Not my reasoning. Common sense.
we sometimes offer hatred and inequality to them.
It has never been proven minority inequality is a result of White racism as opposed to minority behavior and all the evidence is against this. And even it was, we don't owe then any "equality" just as no ethnic group owes any other ethnic group anything but to leave them alone.

"That is not 'peace' and correlation is not cause."
Scandinavia is very peaceful and has a high IQ, Africa and ME is violent and has a low IQ. The most violent place in Europe is Balkans where the IQ is lowest. Correlation. You said there was none.
The point is intelligence is useful information about ethnic groups. As long as we can't read every individual's mind, there will be a cost in not discriminating ethnicity. And even then there would still be a cost because of regression towards the mean.
"Never heard of colonialism eh?"
Colonialism wasn't Whites swarming into already rich country as immigrants. Why are you changing my point? I said where are they rioting in E. Asian countries demanding stuff from East Asians like browns do in the West?

They have only themselves to blame for resentment and discrimination. Why aren't there problems with Chinese in Europe? Why Black and brown people? Oh, it's dark skin. How about Indians?

Why do you think whites colonised other countries then?
Ethnic pride was the reason. Colonies were an economic burden. You totally ignored my argument that Whites didn't migrate to already rich countries and live off benefits like brown people do today which was the point of our disagreement. Conquest was virtually universally seen as moral back then.

You totally ignored my argument that Whites didn't migrate to already rich countries and live off benefits like brown people do today which was the point of our disagreement.
Whites colonised other countries and extracted plenty of different 'benefits' of their own: products, labour, etc
If you are saying that all immigrants live off benefits, then that is just another stereotype. Many, if not most, come to work. Also there is nothing wrong in someone seeking to make a better life for themselves in another country. That, after all, is a principle that the USA is founded on. It just so happened that the 'huddled masses' then better suit your preferred skin colour.
Conquest was virtually universally seen as moral back then.
But by the conquerors only, naturally - when history tells us of the depredations colonialism entailed.. So we can say 50% took exception to matters.
They aren't victims if they behave a certain way.
That's good to know; so if whites act in a certain way towards minorities then they are not the 'victim' you so readily identify them as being?
Nope, slavery has been debunked as a cause of Black poverty by several studies:
Research shows that areas with a greater history of slavery have larger Black-White economic disparities today and a negative impact on current development. For example, a study of 46 countries found a significant correlation between past slavery and current levels of inequality. ('The legacies of slavery in and out of Africa' Nunn (2008b) Sorry about that.
And did all those American slaves back in the day gain in affluence and then pass it on? Swanson et al. (1995) and Shapiro (2004) suggest contemporary poverty and inequality are related to blacks' historical disadvantage in accumulating wealth. Black wealth accumulation was stunted both by slavery and its successors, sharecropping, Jim Crow laws and overt economic discrimination.
it is common sense that, for the majority, slavery means deprivation, exploitation and poverty with a shadow that passes down generations.
Again with the dodge and derail to colonialism. Those countries weren't already rich. I never said all immigrants, i said it's a pattern which is important. They say they come to work and are let in on condition that they will be working, but they and their descendants still tend to take more from the government. Yes there is plenty wrong in some ethnic groups mass migrating into a country that another ethnic group built and influencing that society according to their interest at the expense of the original ethnic group. They bring their genetics, culture, politics, habits, identities and loyalties. The purpose of countries is that different ethnic groups have their homelands. Mass immigration denies sovereignty to ethnic groups who built wealth. It is the antithesis of ethnic justice.
US was founded as a White country. Non Whites were only allowed in 1965 after liberals took over the culture. Race is identity and behavior and much more than skin color. Blacks haven't fully assimilated after 400 years.
"But by the conquerors only, naturally"
That doesn't mean it was immoral. Morality is relative to the time.
How do Whites act towards minorities? Giving them DEI as well as making them 40% of people in commercials despite the fact they commit 60% of murders in the country?
Research shows
And now suddenly, correlation IS causation, eh?
How did buying slaves make those places poor?
Again, slavery as the cause of Black poverty has been debunked: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJwPpNzTWoQ (studies in the video) Effects dissipated after a few generations. IQ is the main cause. If Whites were the cause of Black poverty, how come those Blacks that live with Whites are today the wealthiest (US and UK) while those that live away from Whites are the poorest? East Africa had little slave trade, yet it's actually poorer than West Africa. If slavery was the cause of Black poverty, how come Blacks today do worse than they did prior to the civil rights movement?
Today, the scientific consensus is that genetics does not explain differences in IQ test performance between groups, and that observed differences are environmental in origin.
No it' hasn't. This claim is just a desperate attempt on behalf of well intentioned people to prevent the political consequence of admitting the obvious truth. They HAVE TO lie about this. To them admitting race and IQ is another holocaust.
However few would agree that this is a reason to argue in favour of white supremacism since it would seem a matter of education and culture while seeking a genetic proclivity for wife-beating would be a hard ask
How is an undisputed fact of higher domestic abuse in interracial couples not a good argument to not celebrate interracial relationships?
I suppose it has never occurred to you that black children, say, may be exposed to stereotypes and discrimination due to their genetic and phenotypic makeup, which can challenge their search for a positive sense of identity?
How do mixed race children express more abuse than Black children but less than Whites?
But if they have been demanding purity for the white population in general and then marry a black person in particular that still doesn't count? I see. It really is an obvious example such as you ask for, your special pleading notwithstanding. Love of a different person is 'not the practical consequences' of marrying outside your race, but, logically vice versa.

I have nothing against race mixing as long as the truth about race is not hidden and as long as it's not celebrated. I don't think race mixing should be illegal.
So in arguing against my stance that race mixing shouldn't be celebrated you source a link with more proof that race mixing shouldn't be celebrated? Even if psychological issue s of mixed children is 100% environmental, it's still an argument against race mixing.

My question was about principles and double standard in their ideology. You have provided none. Sine White nationalist are seen as the epitome of evil in our society, this should have been EXTREMELY easy. Conversely, since progressive left wing views on race are seen as moral and benign, it should have been very difficult for me to list many examples of their double standards.

A convenient claim. The "obvious truth" is actually that, as you said " you can't 100% prove genetics is the cause."
But do you support censorship of science of race?
The concept of race as a category in the biological sciences at least is not supported by evidence, humans share 99.9% of their DNA with each other, and the few differences that exist are likely due to environmental factors and not core biology. That's the science.
Should White women be told about the statistical risks of marrying Black men?
You mean: derogatory comments in public; loss of contact with friends or family who disapprove; negative comments online (as here from you) or in the media; negative stereotyping; open hostility and intimidation; rejection from family or disinheritance; a sense of isolation; stares, insults, jibes, slights, and whispers? I think they can probably guess what they will face from bigots.
The context of my question was in regards to pros and cons of race mixing
Not exactly. As already noted you are always concerned with the alleged disadvantages of mixed races for whites, never for blacks.This shows a lack of balance to say the least.

You actually said "Name me a single example of a double standard from White identatarians" and in the end I gave three with a choice of two types. And I seem to remember your agreement with one that "yes [in that case] it would be hypocritical".
The fact that white supremacy is not only perpetuated by white people is an example, since you insist on double standards more generally:
A convenient claim. The "obvious truth" is actually that, as you said " you can't 100% prove genetics is the cause."
I don't need 100% proof. The context of race and IQ debate isn't to mass sterilize Black people, but to stop importing them in West and blaming Whites for their failure. In this context, anything above 50% probability is sufficient.
humans share 99.9% of their DNA with each other, and the few differences that exist are likely due to environmental factors and not core biology. That's the science.
Humans share 98.5% of DNA with Chimps. Even woke race deniers themselves admit human biodiversity comes in clusters. This is race.
rejection from family or disinheritance; a sense of isolation; stares, insults, jibes, slights, and whispers? I think they can probably guess what they will face from bigots.
I did not ask for your projections of what admition of truth might lead to. I asked, should people be properly informed about statistical risks of race mixing (lower IQ, identitiy crisis, higher risk of domestic abuse, divorce...etc) like gay people are properly informed aobut the risks of gay sex?
As already noted you are always concerned with the alleged disadvantages of mixed races for whites, never for blacks.This shows a lack of balance to say the least.

Granted it is all about context but, despite widespread poverty and conflict, Africa has fast-growing economies with a potential GDP of $29 trillion by 2050, driven by agriculture, trade, and natural resources. GDP, a key measure of national wealth, shows Nigeria as the richest African country in 2021, primarily due to its large population and petroleum-focused economy. Egypt leads Africa in GDP adjusted for Purchasing Power Parity, reflecting its mixed economy with strengths in tourism, agriculture, fossil fuels, and emerging technology sectors. South Africa . South Africa has a GDP per capita of $16,424 and is a major economic powerhouse in Africa. South Africa also has the highest number of high net worth individuals in Africa.

Whoa; that is two different things. I said that biologically speaking 'race' does not exist.

No, concern about demographic change is legit to everyone and even to minorities living in the West. Even they should oppose it.

No it doesn't. Black Africa has had the worst economic growth over time than all other regions of the world. It only grew by 11% in the last 50 years. South Africa is rich because it was built and ruled by Whites, today under Blacks it is collapsing. Macao is East Asian not brown, Qatar is rich due to natural resources.

So race does not exist because PURE RACES do not exist. That is like saying colors do not exist because pure colors do not exist.

No, pure races do not exist. Modern genetic research and insights from ancient DNA show that all human populations are a mix of different genetic material and have a long history of migration. To talk about a 'pure race' is pseudo science.
Modern science doesn't define race by skin color anymore
Then why are you so exercised by just black people? But you are right, hard sciences like biology don't talk about 'races' anymore. You are years out of date.
What misinformation? Hate is nothing but another word for resentment and resentment is justified if the party in question behaves in an immoral way. If someone hears the truth about minorities and the threat they pose and shoots up a mosque, blame the guy who shot up a mosque, not the guy who correctly warned society about the threat of Islamization. Also blame those that keep importing these people without the approval of the public. It's an extreme hypocrisy how leftists see legit concerns as "hate", but then spread true hate against Whites with White guilt and blaming Whites for failure of minorities (which leads to more violence against Whites than talking about IQ by the right against minorities).

As long as the essential differences are so small then there is no essential biological distinction, except for those who insist on discriminating on that basis.

I disagree race is just a social construct, but let's set that aside...How do you know that these "small" differences aren't enough to make statistical differences in key psychological propensities like intelligence, consciensousness, agreeableness and anti social behavior? Different races today exhibit those differences. In any case even there aren't any important differences doesn't mean mixing people will cause problems. There are many examples of multiethnic societies having problems. Just look at Blacks in America - still rioting after 400 years and 60 years of civil rights. Even Czechs and Slovaks separated and they are much less different that Whites and Blacks.

Justifying the subjugation and exploitation of others because it ultimately did them good is not a good look - even if it was intended by the conquerors, which it was not.
Nobody would say Turks or Japanese today don't have a right to keep their country Turkish or Japanese because of Ottoman empire or WW2.
The same might be said of all those countries independent after the decline of coloniallsm. So?
.How do you know that these "small" differences aren't enough to make statistical differences in key psychological propensities like intelligence, consciensousness (sic), agreeableness and anti social behavior? Different races today exhibit those differences
All I know is that they are not commonly held sufficiently significant to distinguish a 'race' - a notion you stlll cling to, to ultimately justify discrimination.
Just look at Blacks in America - still rioting after 400 years and 60 years of civil rights
Yes and its all their fault, eh? They ought to have been grateful for being second class citizens?

No, science doesn't say that. Our society's politics interprets it that way to conclude it doesn't exist because it needs to. And even if races didn't exist in biological sense, they exist in sociological sense. Blacks are according to the left a community.
Whites however provide the most prominent and far reaching examples
Yes because they were most successful which means they deserve credit. Everyone else besides Whites are today proud of their history of conquest. Blacks didn't conquer Whites because they were backwards. They still invaded Pygmies and stole their land. Yet you are fine with no guilt for them, but you want guilt for Whites.
Are you suggesting that whites invaded other countries for those country's own good?
No, they did it out of pride because everyone believed in conquest back then. India's economy grew more during British rule and today the most colonized African countries like S. Africa are the wealthiest, while the least colonized like Ethiopia are the poorest. Cry me a river with your "subjugation". Judging past behavior by modern standards is only applied to Whites. When everyone else did it, it's just history and nobody has guilt.

I have never denied that the concept is still clung to in the social sciences (and politics), although in the former case one wonder for how long). And a 'community' is not a 'race', nor is a'cluster' come to that.

The context was my argument that if a given ethnic group fails to build prosperity, it's rational to want to keep them out. That could be the case due to culture only. Even if there were no races (which I do NOT concede, but just for the sake of this particular argument let go) it would still be valid to keep out bad cultures.
Most successful at world-wide colonisation and exploitation and subjugation? We can agree on that.
Again with contextualization of conquest, applying modern moral standards (which Whites created) to the past only for Whites and false premises that colonization hurt the conquered which only stems from the fact they are poor today. Wonder why so much few people blame British for the colonization of Singapore or Hong Kong than Africa or India? Because the former are rich. Africans failed to build prosperity, so now Whites are blamed.

Prejudice is PRE-judging. Judging a race on DATA of how they tend to behave in NOT prejudice
Are those small and often vexed differences enough to discriminate against a whole ethnic group?
Sol now you're backing up and admitting differences exist? Yes if the difference is in the brain and you are deciding weather or not to let many of them in the country
Its just a shame that so far you have been unable to show that, overall in the UK at least this just is not the case.
What is not the case? That Blacks and Pakistanis in the UK are poorer than Whites? That they are poorer in Pakistan or Africa?

Brown migrants are a cost. EEA (White) migrants are a benefit. This is the case basically in every country we have data.

I don't support needlessly being mean to someone over their race if there is no cost in not discriminating. If there is a cost, then there is a different story. With immigration there's a cost. With Taxi picking up Black customers there is also a cost.

The cost of hatred towards minorities can be seen in the riots. The cost inherent in unequal societies is well known both from history and economics. eg a decrease in the standard of living for low‐income earners, increased tax burden on existing tax payers, deterioration of the budget deficit, and restriction on economic growth; civil disorder (which you yourself attribute to a perception of unfairness ) etc.

What do you mean chose to accept? Shouldn't data be accepted? Shouldn't we live in reality? It's not a fallacy in the context of our debate. The context is weather we should be importing certain ethnic groups. In this context there are good behaving and bad behaving ethnic groups. You judge ethnic groups based on how they behave on the aggregate and how they behave compared to other ethnic groups who we could be importing instead. Imagine you are in the business of importing eggs and eggs come in packets. One type of egg pack has only 1% rotten eggs while another type has 10% rotten eggs. If someone deliberately knowingly imports the 10% rotten egg pack instead of the 1%, wouldn't it be fair to say that he is importing "rotten eggs"?
It was discovered in 2020 that Black people are up to 20% unknown homnin (most likely Homo Ergaster), White people are about 4% Neanderthal.
Whites and Blacks are to a small extent different species.
So even you admit Blacks on the aggregate behave worse? Yet you still support their immigration and blaming Whites for their behavior? When a given ethnic group one the aggregate tends to behave worse, it is perfectly rational (and even moral) to oppose the importation of that ethnic group unless you can show that their behavior is going to change and change soon. Blacks in the UK behave much worse despite never being slaves or Jim crow. The government didn't EVEN TRY to increase birth rates, and they didn't even try to first import better behaving ethnic groups like other Europeans, Chinese or Indians. They immediately took in Africans or Muslims. And now that these groups turned out to be problematic, they blame "raycisum" instead of themselves for taking them in and those communities or cultures.
What do you mean chose to accept? Shouldn't data be accepted?
It depends on the data, the context, and the way it is interpreted. The trouble with many right wingers on this board any data which contradicts their world view, even from reputable sources, is rejected out of hand as propaganda or fake news. As I have seen.
In this context there are good behaving and bad behaving ethnic groups..You judge ethnic groups based on how they behave on the aggregate
Stereotype much?
Whites and Blacks are to a small extent different species.
As has been pointed out before, science tells us the difference between ethnic groups is generally less than inside a single group. And any other differences are not viewed by science as significant - except for those wanting to make a case for discrimination.
The rest of what you say is unfortunately just more stereotyping (and arguments for it).

We are talking about ethnic groups not individuals. Until we live in a world where every person knows everything there is to know about every other person, ethnic groups will exist and ethnic differences will always be useful information.
"As has been pointed out before, science tells us the difference between ethnic groups is generally less than inside a single group"
A deceptive technicality. Those group differences are extremely important.
"And any other differences are not viewed by science as significant"
There are very important ethnic differences like intelligence, predispositions to disease, lactose and alcohol intolerance etc. In fact it's hard to find almost any things that naturally differ between individuals that also don't differ between groups.
We are talking about ethnic groups not individuals.
Please see the Webster's definition of a stereotype, quoted earlier.

Useful information yes, cause for stereotyping, no.

The genetic differences between ethnic groups are still less than those within them. Sorry about that. One problem with those old race-based classifications is they relied on an erroneous idea that people within a typological category were more similar to each other than they were to people in other groups. QED.
Now, have you anything fresh to add to these exchanges or shall we call it a day?

No, the accusation of stereotyping is only valid morally if I am choosing to judge an individual (who I am able and required to inquire information about) based on group differences. If we are talking about groups and weather we should be IMPORTING certain groups as opposed to others, then group aggregate differences are perfectly valid territory. How else do you decide which groups a country should be importing other than group average differences? Do you even care about making your country better? Do you even care about not ruining the country?
"differences between ethnic groups are still less than those within them"
That is FAR from saying that they don't matter. The context here is importation of different ethnic groups, not judging every individual based on group average.
Sorry, but it is still the case that stereotyping is defined most often as the act of making generalizations or assumptions about a group of people based on their perceived characteristics, as already noted.
If I am choosing to judge an individual, I am able and required to inquire information about based on group differences.
It is far more ethical and best practice to judge an individual on their own merits. That is why, for one thing, justice is blind.
Do you even care about making your country better? Do you even care about not ruining the country?
Yes; but not on the basis of racial stereotyping. And, loaded questions noted.
That is FAR from saying that they don't matter.
They (differences within groups) matter less than differences within ethnic groups, sorry, but that is the plain science. And is the last time I shall make it known to you, As with so much of what you say, it all ultimately boils down to bad old scientific racism. THAT is the unfortunate context.

Ok so you don't care about ruining your country just so you wont' be accused of "stereotyping". Great.
"It is far more ethical and best practice to judge an individual on their own merits."
But here we are not talking about judging individuals, but groups. Immigration is a collective policy. No country has the means to judge every individual specifically to decide weather or not he should be let in (especially since they have an incentive to lie and deceive to be let in).
"And, loaded questions"
It's not a loaded question since this is literally happening. Whites will be a minority in the UK in 2060s. Muslims are rising quickly. They aren't assimilating, their values, culture and loyalties are totally different than ours. There is absolutely no reason to think they will assimilate and become like us. Unless something drastic changes, the UK will eventually become a majority Muslim country and it won't be the UK anymore. Do you not care about you country's long term identity?
"They (differences within groups) matter less than differences within ethnic groups"
Why are you just repeating this talking point and not addressing the argument? Just because there is technically more diversity within than between doesn't mean between differences can't be vastly important.
"I have deep sympathy for the concern that genetic discoveries could be misused to justify racism. But as a geneticist I also know that it is simply no longer possible to ignore average genetic differences among “races.”
"I am worried that well-meaning people who deny the possibility of substantial biological differences among human populations are digging themselves into an indefensible position, one that will not survive the onslaught of science."
Not a single affluent Black society in the world despite them living on 5 continents, in 50 different countries with differen histories and cultures. If you group different world regions by historic economic growth, there is almost a perfect correlation with skin color (race). The darker the skin, the worst the economic growth (India is the only exception). It is BURDEN ON YOU to prove there is no important differences between the races, because YOU are the one importing them.
Riots wouldn't happen if government only imported good behavin ethnic groups or at least listened to the working class or IDK maybe had a referendum on immigration. You know thing called democracy.
There will always be inequality among ethnic groups. Even if someone would prove genetics aren't the cause there is still culture, habits, family structure and skills...There is no benefit to try to artificially level them as it will just cause political problem, cause inefficiency and injustice to individuals. I don't see even any benefits of ethnic equality. The only problems are caused by society LYING to less successfu ethnic groups that they are oppressed.
So if Whites would move to a brown country like Sri Lanka, became a huge burden, refused to respect the host nations, it wouldn't be fair to say to them "either respect Sri Lankans or go back"?
From that David Reich article: "Compared with the enormous differences that exist among individuals, differences among populations are on average many times smaller, so it should be only a modest challenge to accommodate a reality in which the average genetic contributions to human traits differ.,, To understand why it is so dangerous for geneticists and anthropologists to simply repeat the old consensus about human population differences, consider what kinds of voices are filling the void that our silence is creating."
It is BURDEN ON YOU to prove there is no important differences between the races
Which Reich duly acknowledges lol 'Race' btw is not a term recognised by science. I have told you this before but still you, tellingly, let it slip out.
Not a single affluent Black society in the world
Never heard of Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, South America, The Bahamas or Bermuda etc eh? Granted they are not as affluent as the west, but arguably this can be put down to historical reasons, such the exploitation and depredations of colonialism. (Which might well explain, if true your claim of 'The darker the skin, the worst the economic growth '.
Riots wouldn't happen if government only imported good behaving ethnic groups
To suggest that riots only happen because of immigration or by immigrants is simplistic and wrong. As I have shown before, riots in the UK historically had had various reasons, while many race riots in the US (and the Uk) have been due to badly behaving, racist whites.
. I don't see even any benefits of ethnic equality.
That is obvious, since you are always arguing for an ethnic superiority (yours, naturally). Others however believe equality and diversity work the benefit of society, and so do I.
So if Whites would move to a brown country like Sri Lanka, became a huge burden, refused to respect the host nations, it wouldn't be fair to say to them "either respect Sri Lankans or go back"?

Yes technically many times smaller. But this fails to take into account the bell curve nature of distribution. The difference between the smartest White and the dumbest White is 100 IQ points, but the average difference between Whites and Blacks is only 15 points. This makes it technically "many times smaller" however this 15 point difference is enough that a White person is about 25 times more likely to have an IQ over 125 than a Black person. This average difference is EXTREMELY consequential for society and especially in the context of push for more Black doctors or lawyers etc.(DEI)
Why are you still hanging on to semantic disputes and ignoring the main point? Call them ethnic groups instead of races, the differences are still extremely important to society.
Nigeria is poor, SA is wealthy exclusively due to oil, The Bahamas GDP is artificially inflated by offshore banking and has one of the highest murder rates in the world. None of your examples are affluent societies by any standards.
This is a paper by respected economists showing the most colonized parts of Africa are the wealthiest weather you measure it by time or number of Whites settled. http://www.nber.org/papers/w18162.pdf
Sub-Saharan Africa has had the worst economic growth compared to all other regions in the world over the last 60 years after decolonization. Look at where some other former colonies are like Singapore or Hong Kong.
We are talking about race riots and those wouldn't be happening in a homogeneous country
"yours, naturally"
When have I argued for SES superiority of Whites over East Asians and Jews? If anything, I'm a merit supremacist (as every rational person should be)
Immigration and conquest are different things. When have Whites ever immigrated into a wealthy non White country? Much less demanded favoritism (so called "equality")? or caused mass crime and riots?
Yes technically many times smaller. .. White and the dumbest White is 100 IQ points, but the average difference between Whites and Blacks is only 15 points.

Ethnic groups are not 'races'. And the differences are, one again, not that significant. In fact they only seem important to those who judge people on their ethnic heritage rather than as citizens. There is a word for that.
None of your examples are affluent societies by any standards.
Please read the links I gave with all the data (you are the one who says 'would would I not pay attention to data?' Right?). Admittedly the West is more affluent but that does not mean other countries are not affluent.
eg
With a GDP estimated at $477 billion in 2022, Nigeria is at the top of the ranking of the richest African countries, ahead of Egypt and South Africa.
When have Whites ever immigrated into a wealthy non White country?
If we accept the list of affluent non-white countries in the link I gave last time, then we would expect some immigration to those places happens all the time. (And I think you mean 'emigrated')
Much less demanded favoritism (so called "equality")?
Colonising whites normal demanded superiority, not equality. And favoritism is not equality, I have no idea why you equate the two.
caused mass crime and riots?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Rebellions_against_the_British_Empire. The worst disorder in the British Empire occurred on the island of Ceylon. During May and June 1915 the colonial government in Colombo was forced to declare martial law having lost political control in several provinces etc etc. Then we have the case of India, wealthy, conquered and then exploited by the British and which (among many upheavals had the Mutiny. Your view of the malign effects of white rule and colonialism is curiously ill-informed, and tellingly myopic. reply share
Again letting you get away with a dodge because I'm really tired debating. Hopefully the readers will see it.
"Ethnic groups are not 'races'. And the differences are, one again, not that significant"
Race is actually MORE than ethnicity and the racial differences between two races are way bigger than ethnic differences between two groups within the same race. How do you know that "the differences are not that significant"? Show the data of Black success which suggests race differences are not that significant.
Nigeria has a large economy only DUE TO IT'S LARGE POPULATION. Their GDP per capita is only 1,100 dollars in 2024 according to the IMF. This is almost 6 TIMES less than KOSOVO the poorest country in Europe which is at 6400 dollars.
Mass White immigration into a rich non White country please.
Colonialism was during different times where almost everyone believed in conquest. Nobody says Serbs today have right to demand something from Turks because of the Ottoman empire. Guilt goes only in one direction. Whites never leeched off wealth of non Whites. India was never wealthy and benefited a lot from British rule.
And yet, here you are, now it seems repeating yourself more and more...
Race is actually MORE than ethnicity and the racial differences between two races are
'Race' is, still, not a scientific term. But your attempt now to redefine it is surely a sign of desperation. You are just trying to make it into as wide a concept as possible to justify what, ultimately, is still the same old narrow minded scientific racism. You will never get acceptance from me for something which is both morally unacceptable and scientifically unevidenced. A recent case of that sort of thing can be found here, where the same old unpleasant and extreme claims are trotted out, only to be rejected by scientists on the same basis as I have given, several times on this thread: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/oct/16/revealed-international-race-science-network-secretly-funded-by-us-tech-boss
Show the data of Black success which suggests race differences are not that significant.
Race is, again, simply not a scientific term. Sorry. There are certainly differences between different ethnic groups' success yes,(assuming we agree on what that constitutes) but various different reasons have been put forward, as we have discussed. You seem to be obsessed with just one: IQ.
Mass White immigration into a rich non White country please.
The wealthiest and most affluent countries are in the west, it is quite natural for anyone to seek a better life there. Meanwhile you have forgotten the colonial-era emigration of many whites to countries precisely to expand empires and to exploit their wealth? It is simply that the tide has turned.
Of course there is the irony that many poor Europeans made the journey to the USA back in the day seeing it as a land rich in opportunity. The USA was originally a non-white country, rich in resources..
Colonialism was during different times where almost everyone believed in conquest.
Not of themselves though.
Whites never leeched off wealth of non Whites.
Yeah, colonialism was all give, give. give by the whites...lol

The differences between races are bigger than the differences between ethnic groups, both genetically as well as with any important human properties. According to liberals differentiating between Swedes and Norwegians is OK, but differentiating between Whites and Blacks is not. I've given you evidence from mainstream sources and respected liberal geneticists about racial differences, yet you still deny it. You haven't even disputed the recent discovery that Blacks have up to 20% Homo Ergaster DNA while Europeans have about 4% Neanderthal DNA. If those species of homo were not the same, then how can human races be the same? The Guardian are far left liars. Here is a video of how they deliberately mislead readers about likelihood of racial IQ differences. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVAzPniTzmg
OK so you can't show any example of any evidence that suggests there are no important race differences so you doge with semantics. OK.
I still see no examples of Whites moving into a rich non White country to live off wealth created by someone else. Third world countries that were conquered were not wealthy, that's why they got conquered. Stop with your Marxist exploitation narratives.
There was no US before Whites came, there was no country. If resources were the main reason for wealth, why weren't' the natives wealthy?
"Not of themselves though"
Don't hate the player, hate the game. They themselves believed in conquest and were conquered by someone stronger. They aren't morally superior and aren't victims.
Colonialism was Whites conqeuring peoples who were more backward than them during conquest ethic, not Whites leeching off wealth created by someone else.
Thank you for all replies. Unfortunately given that I don't think anyone is following all this by now, the fact that it is all difficult to read on screen and you are largely repeating yourself, I will leave it at that. Essentially you are merely justifying scientific racism over and over with more than a dash of white supremacy. You are fully entitled to your opinions, of course; but ultimately they leave a bad taste in the mouth.

All I know is that they are not commonly held sufficiently significant to distinguish a 'race' - a notion you stlll cling to, to ultimately justify discrimination.
Even egalitarians admit about 15% of genetic variation is between races. Twin studies show genetics is very important in behavior. Races today behave differently which suggests differences are due to genes. Discrimination eh? When French have a French in group bias or Poles have a Polish in group bias it's perfectly OK. When Blacks do it relative to Whites it's Ok, But when Whites do it it's "racism". To call your position irrational and full of double standards would be an understatement.

Probably for social and cultural factors, also Asians often have a good stake in the community. However rioting is quite common in the subcontinent so it would be hard to call it genetic.

Racial science was never discredited. It was just politically abandoned and stigmatized due to the psychological shock of WW2. All evidence suggests races are different in the brain.

There are small differences yes; but once again: only those with an unpleasant agenda see them as significant and seek to use them to discriminate. The difference within ethnic groups is more (85%) than between them. We are beginning to repeat ourselves.
Only in the West do most scientist claim there are no races.
Evidence please. And even if true , that is just an Argument from Popularity, a fallacy.
I could easily defend White riots from them having perfectly legit grievances
Which you have I believe and leaves you defending violence and hate.
"..rioting is attributed unevenly to the same ethnic groups .. around the world would suggest the cause is not genes" It actually would suggest the genetic cause. They fail to build prosperity due to low IQs
If something is spread unevenly among the same ethnic groups ( as we know differences exist very often more between them than compared to other groups) then it logically cannot be their genes. QED.
since the media does lie to them that they're oppressed.
Like the far right chat rooms and blogs, news outlets etc insist that whites are? In a fear of losing treasured white privilege? Got it.

And how do you know those "small" (human and chimps are 98.5% genetically the same) aren't very important? All data shows Black and brown people are less sucessful than Whites werevery they live. The burden of equality is on you since you are importing them here and blaming Whites for their failures.
There is no world concensus on non existance of race among experts. It's just a popular political trend in the West steming from a tendancy to see yourself as a "moral" and "progressive" person.
In 2004 Leonard Lieberman reviewed several surveys of anthropologists and found that 31% of physical anthropologist in N. America regonize race and 43% recognize race in Europe. Specifically, they found that 50% of biological anthropologists accepted the concept of race, while 42% of biological anthropologists rejected it1. In 2009 Kaszycka survey of pyhs antrhopologists in Europe found that in E. Europe overwhelming recognize race, while in W. Europe about a third do.
In 2001 Štrakalj and Li Sun looked at 779 articles in the only Chinese anthropological journal and found overwhelming acceptance of race. The more West you go (the more individualistic and racially diverse society) the lower the recognition of race. Race denial seems to be a Western ideological tendancy steming from individualism as well as fear of what race recognititon would do to those diverse societies, rather than an objective socientific conclusion.
The argument from popularity could just as easily be applied to your supposed concencus of non existnace of race in the West. And the West (unlike China) has a political incentive to deny race
Again distinguish "hate" (ie resentment) from legtit ethnic grievances or shut up about hate. Every political movement has violence.
How is losing your homeland without ever being asked if you approve it not a legit grievance? How is being discriminated by DEI and AA as well as being labelled oppressor by media and universities not also?
And how do you know those "small" (human and chimps are 98.5% genetically the same) aren't very important?
Reich, who you helpfully linked to of late, does not think so for example, nor does the biological scientific consensus. Despite your links The concept of race classification in physical anthropology lost credibility around the 1960s. The American Anthropological Association (AAA) adopted an official statement on race in 1998. " By 2009, however, general consensus among leading biological anthropologists on a number of areas was reported, including that “[r]ace is not an accurate or productive way to describe human biological variation” https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5299519/#:~:text=Most%20anthropologists%20believe%20that%20categorizing,race%20has%20no%20biological%20basis. You are reaching now.
All data shows Black and brown people are less sucessful than Whites werevery they live.
We have been here before and the numbers of affluent societies away from the West can quickly be found, while differences which do exist can arguably be at least partly put down to the historical record of colonialism. You are just justifying racism.
There is no world concensus(sic) on non existance(sic) of race among experts. It's just a popular political trend
The onus then is on you to show this, at least away from a 20 year old study not from biological scientists. Also, it is biologically scientific view, not a political one, not least for it obviously exists among the far-right for whom obsolete terms have their understandable attraction.
The more West you go (the more individualistic and racially diverse society) the lower the recognition of race.
Well then, not surprising that I am right since, well, you claim that whites are 'more intelligent'... right? I can only report what biological science now asserts, and you have had all the reasons. But... good try.
Again distinguish "hate" (ie resentment) from legtit ethnic grievances or shut up about hate.
Once again, the legal distinctions are quite clear, good enough to bring successful prosecutions. The fact that you choose to obfuscate to make an unpleasant argument is your problem, not mine.

Right around the time culture/society changed it's views on race. What a coincidence
The American Anthropological Association is one organization influenced by society, ideology and politics. Aren't the same "experts" today changing their views on biological sex right around the time the transgender "civil rights" movement is becoming dominant? Another coincidence I suppose? Any category can be deconstructed if you want to deconstruct it and think it makes you a good person doing so.
Name me please examples of affluent Black societies. Colonialism excuse is laughably stupid. Liberia and Ethiopia were never colonized, yet they're shit holes.

Thank you for your unsubstantiated opinion. Environmental degradation, economic underdevelopment, racial profiling, systemic racism, and poor social infrastructure manifested in unequal access to health care, education and social justice were among the effects of colonialism
Singapore and Hong Kong are today richer than their former colonizer. Ask yourself how are Honk Kong and Singapore different from Africa?
It is interesting how you hold them up as exceptions to the experiences elsewhere so QED lol The truth is that each nation's case is different, both in the sort of colonialism they suffered and local conditions etc. But I am sure this is obvious. The fact is that colonialism, the subjugation, division and exploitation of countries was not done for their benefit and, with the some exceptions (a legal system, some infrastructure etc) did not leave them with many either.

There is no consensus about experts about non existence of race. About a third in the West accept race and virtually all in China accept race. And the remaining in the West who deny it can be explained partially by ideological conditioning as well as cancel cutlure or stigma in accepting race.
Not everyone
But the intellectual elite generally changed their ideological moral stances on race which explains the organizations you mentioned denying race.
Race denial is not a scientific conclusion. It is an ideological moral principle. You can deconstruct any concept provided there is motivation to. Like Jared Taylor says, the idea that race does not exist is so stupid that only very smart people can convince themselves that it is true.
So you don't deny that American Anthropological Association stance on race could be a result of ideology rather than science and objectivity?
There is no consensus about experts about non existence of race.
As already described, there is a clear consensus in the biological sciences. Google is your friend. In anthropology it is largely discredited in the west. Race is invoked now and again in some softer sciences such as politics but, apart from those whose ideology needs keeping the idea alive, it is on the way out. China is the outlier, not the leader.
the West who deny it can be explained partially by ideological conditioning
Scientific research and fact are not usually results of 'conditioning' But thank you for your opinions.
But the intellectual elite generally changed their ideological moral stances on race ..
Oh the good old 'intellectual elite' argument! Haven't had that from you much yet lol
Like Jared Taylor says
Him again? If only he was a biological scientist with qualifications in that area, rather than a right winger with ideological preferences....
So you don't deny that American Anthropological Association stance on race could be a result of ideology rather than science and objectivity
It could be, too, that you are grasping at straws.
You did not answer how come today the most colonized countries in Africa are the wealthiest ?
The same ones, er, among the many you claimed, just earlier, were 'not affluent' LOL? One notes also that they are not so wealthy as the West.. those who ran the slaves.
This is economic growth of Black Africa since 1960 (post colonialism) compared to other regions of the world. As you can see, it has by far the least growth. It almost perfectly correlates with IQ and latitude.
If only correlation was cause , eh? You are happily confusing the two again.
This paper concludes that IQ is the best predictor of economic growth of a country
Without taking into account historical circumstances like colonisation and slavery? And also didn't you, er, just above, praise the economic performances of some brown countries? You know, some of the ones populated with all those thick blacks?
No, there is no consensus. How can there be a consensus if the largest country in the world universally accepts race and about a third in the West do as well? The remaining can be explained by politics and popular social trends. Blacks have up to 20% Homo Ergaster DNA that Whites don't, but there is no such thing as race LOL.
What specific research and facts were discovered that made people deny race? Please list them to me.
"Him again?"
Completely ignored the point he was making and resorting to ad hominem fallacy.
geneticist David Reich :
"substantial biological differences among human populations"
Evolutionary biologist Erns Mayr of Harvard and one of most prominent taxonomist and philosophers of biology:
"Those who prescribe that there are no human races are obviously ignorant of human biology"
Richard Dawkins evolutionary biologist: "It's nonsense to say race is a social construct. Race is a real biological phenomenon" - 2022
"why don't you ask them"
Yes the people indoctrinated and blinded by ideology are going to tell me, they are political and their science is BS. Their statement has as much value as the statement on race by the Democratic party.
Meanwhile this was the conclusion from a conference on race in Russia in 1998:
1.) According to the old anthropological tradition big human morphological variations which are the result of polymorphism united by common origin in certain geographical areas had been given the name "races"
2.) Reality of the racial subdivisions of homo sapiens are supported by the totality of the scientific data investigated on the different levels of human organism. Morphological, physiological and genetical. Race classification created with regard for morphological criteria clearly enough reflect the phylogeny of the separate populations and groups of populations
3.) Negativism to the race concept which became apparent during the last decades, in many respects might be explained by the psychological shock which all progressive humanity had felt in the epoch of Hitlerism
"The same ones, are, among the many you claimed, just earlier, were 'not affluent'"
One thing is affluent by world standards another is affluent by African standards. A dodge.
"If only correlation was cause"
It seems to me you are confusing "correlation is not NECESSAIRLY proof of the cause" with "Correlation is unlikely to be the cause"
I already debunked colonialism as the cause. There is no evidence for it. And why would slavery cause poverty? Slave traders in those countries got rich trading slaves. I never praised economics of brown countries. I only compared them to those never colonized to make a point.
How is more divorce and domestic abuse not a downside for Blacks
They are not, but my point is that this the first time you have ever pointed up a disadvantage for blacks mixing with whites (and even here you talk just of blacks). Or whites mixing with the more intelligent asian group, come to that.
OK let's not dwell on this.
Good.
Name me examples of double standards by White nationalist when it comes to their political stances or principles.
You mean like when they claim to be patriots and respect the law and yet storm the capital with a view to insurrection?
"Here is the hypocrisy of these far-right hate groups as defined by Cambridge dictionary: They pretended to care about the American flag when Kaepernick kneeled. They pretended to care about the police when BLM was protesting. They pretended to be patriots until their white supremacy was challenged. Their violent insurrectionist attack against this country and the police with the American flag was evidence that what they accused Kaepernick of doing was executed through their own actions. The hate groups and individuals with closely aligned beliefs pretended to care only when it was convenient for them to attack Kaepernick, a Black man, and BLM.
These far-right hate groups are antithetical to patriots; they are hypocrites."
my point is that this the first time you have ever pointed up a disadvantage for blacks mixing with whites (and even here you talk just of blacks). Or whites mixing with the more intelligent asian group, come to that.
Mixing with Asians is less of a problem because Asians are probably not genetically prone to bad behavior.
You mean like when they claim to be patriots and respect the law and yet storm the capital with a view to insurrection?
Few drunken enthusiasts trespassing because they believed the elections were stolen is not a political principle or position.
Kaepernick/BLM is not a legitimate grievance. BLM wasn't protesting but rioting, burning, looing and robbing, and due to totally illegitimate reasons. There is no rational reason a movement like BLM should exist. The core of the movement is based on lies. What you call "White supremacy" is White equalitarianism. Whites deserve a higher social status because they behave better.
These far-right hate groups are antithetical to patriots; they are hypocrites."

"And probably the gene dictating 'bad behaviour' in blacks has been identified? "
Lots of circumstantial evidence for it.
I think you have in mind the MAOA gene –located in the X chromosome- is also known as the warrior gene, since abnormal versions of the gene often result in aggressive behaviors. The Warrior Gene was found to be more or less prevalent in different ethnic groups . The 3R version, which produces less MAO-A, was found in 59% of Black men, 56% of Maori men (an aboriginal New Zealand group), 54% of Chinese men and 34% of Caucasian men.
But correlation (existence of the gene in some blacks) is not necessarily a cause (of violence). Otherwise for instance Maoris would be almost as violent. We've been through this before.
hat doesn't mean I don't have a right to prefer one breed over another
Indeed; but this a poor comparison with racism, hatred and discrimination towards an entire group of humans.
Group impulses in the heat of the moment.
I am sure if it had been a riot of blacks you would be less forgiving. And such excuses certainly did not affect the scale of justice meted out.
You have still not provided any double standards on behalf of them when it comes to their political positions.
Those who claim to be patriots, respect the law and to support the police and army do not attempt an insurrection. Not even if they 'don't celebrate' the election result.

Again, I asked for dobule standards in their politics regarding race. Is the official position of White identatarians like Jared Taylor or David Duke, "we should have a right to storm the capitol when we lose, but others shouldn't"?. If no, it's not a double standard
er, if it was, then they would not be hypocrites would they? Have you thought this through?
Yes they would if they didn't extend that right to their political opponents. In any case, it's not their position, so it's not a double standard. I am not conceding that you provided a sufficient example, but since you keep bringing up only jan6. do the following thought experiment. Let me ask you, had this even not taken place (No Covid and Trump victory, not a close election...etc) what would be your example of a double standard of WN?

I will admit that the Capital insurrection specifically was not about race. But it was a double standard for the other reasons I have noted. 'Equality of insurrection option' is a silly objection; since it was a question who actually did it against that which they profess.
Also given that there is no such thing as biological 'race' or 'racial purity' it is hypocritical to declare superiority to other groups when one is essentially the same to them in all but superficial detail. Please stop, you are not doing yourself any favours with this.
had this even not taken place (No Covid and Trump victory, not a close election...etc) what would be your example of a double standard of WN?
This looks like 'you gave one example but I want a second'; this after you had earlier switched from examples of individual to that of a collective. It seems you are determined not to accept anything.
But see above; there is an inherent double standard in discriminating against a different 'race' when biologically speaking there is no such thing, racial purity either. That is, if you insist on the superiority of yourself then is is double standards to insist on less for someone who is biolologically essentially the same except in minor detail.

Science does not support the idea of pure races with ancient origins. In the past few years, genetic sequencing of ancient and modern humans and related species has given us a flood of new information about how human populations have evolved. The evidence reveals a history of ongoing genetic mingling, due to interbreeding between different populations and even species. Humans from different groups had children together, and even with Neanderthals and members of other now-extinct hominin species. 'Pure Race' ought to have gone out with Hitler. You show its appeal today it would seem.

This is just the usual hobbyhorse from you unfortunately and depends on what you blithely call 'pride'. Plenty of people are proud of their group. It is often whites though who cross the line into illegality by taking what you deem 'pride' on their national identity and turning it into something else.

Hate definItions in the UK: Hate incident: An incident that is thought to be motivated by hostility or prejudice based on disability, race, religion, gender identity, or sexual orientation. Hate crime: A hate incident that crosses the line of criminality. Hate speech: Public speech that expresses hate or encourages violence towards a person or group based on something such as race, religion, sex, or sexual orientation.
All of the above are more than mere 'resentment' It is worrying that you seek to blur lines and imply that the courts don't know better but it probably suits you to think that. The courts know hate when the see it and sentences reflect that. That the supposed 'hatred of whites' often referred to on this board is not similarly downplayed show the double standards on the right you are always on the look out for.

The insurrection was a political act from 'patriots' and those who value the law. But you have been told this. You have a very short memory, it would seem.
CJS is not racist.
Facts: Sentencing: Black men are sentenced to longer sentences than white men. In a 2017–2021 study, Black men received sentences 13.4% longer than white men. ail admissions: Black people are admitted to jail at a higher rate than white or Hispanic people. In 2019, Black people were admitted to jail at least double the rate of white or Hispanic people in some counties. Length of stay: Black people spend longer in jail. Lawyers: Lawyers are less likely to take on clients with Black-sounding names...
But of course this is all woke propaganda and blacks can be considered liars ,right? Why don't they just leave?
Which modern WN advocate denying Black people sovereignty?
Critics of black nationalism on the right often say it promotes racial and ethnic nationalism, separatism and black supremacy. And there are WN alive who hypocritically supported apartheid in SA. The historical fact is that today third world countries are more likely to manage their own destiny,so arguments against that state of affairs would be conspicuously dated, even for some on the far right who like to make them. That does not mean though that there are not those on the right who would still refuse ethnic groups the privileges they enjoy.
You said races don't exist, but then said "pure races don't exist". Are Whites and Blacks on average genetically different? Yes or no?
Yes. BUT the point is, still that the difference are not enough to determine separate 'races' -despite how it suits those with prejudices to prefer it so. Sorry about that.

Hate crime: A hate incident that crosses the line of criminality.

I still see no distinguish between legit ethnic grievances and "irrational hate speech".
"That the supposed 'hatred of whites' often referred to on this board is not similarly downplayed show the double standards on the right you are always on the look out for."
The difference anti White hatred is that it's based on LIES and FALSE PREMISES or at least decontextualized illegitimate grievances ("White privilege", "Systemic racism", "Slavery", "colonization", "Jim Crow"). If someone just quotes stats of White crime and advocates Whites and Blacks should live separately, I would not consider that "hate". You accuse me of "hate" when I do these things for non Whites.

Please an earlier post where I helpfully posted dictionary definitions. Just because you 'don't see' the essential differences that does not mean others, notably the courts of late, don't. The unfortunate suspicion is that you are using semantics to apologise for the worst of human behaviour.
The difference anti White hatred is that it's based on LIES and FALSE PREMISES

Neither would I although your reasons have been shown as dubious and suggestive of prejudice against a 'race'.
You accuse me of "hate"
A strawman, I have never called you hateful. In any case for you, isn't hate exactly the same as just holding a grievance? So why so upset?

You provided no such distinctions. You just copy pasted the definition of "hate" but YOU DIDN'T DISTINGUISH from legit ethnic grievances which is what I asked.
Thank you for your opinions
Not my opinion. All Black/minority grievances are based on unproven premise of genetic and cultural as well as behavioral equality which all the data contradicts as well decontextualized history and holding Whites to higher standards
your reasons have been shown as dubious and suggestive of prejudice against a 'race'.
How are my reasons dubious and how are they pre judging any group? (PRE-JUDICED)?

OK then what is "hateful" about what a prominent WN like Jared Taylor says, and how would he raise those exact same grievances without being "hateful"?
"The people who stormed the U.S. Capitol weren’t poor, unemployed red-states. Many were middle-class professionals motivated by the “great replacement” conspiracy theory."
Why derailment? That's not what I asked for. I asked for one prominent White identatarian leader (Taylor, Duke, Spencer...) who supported Jan. 6. Also it's not a conspiracy theory if the demographic experts say it's happening.

That is because the legal definition of hate is easy to find and understand. It does not specifically exclude mere 'grievance' for instance, (or just 'not celebrating' either, come to that lol) since one might expect a judge and jury to exercise proportionality and common sense even if you don't to suit a rather desperate claim. All those jailed after the recent riots no doubt had their 'legit grievances'. None of them successfully used the idea to explain or excuse away their illegal and thuggish actions. Nor did the insurrectionists. I just don't believe you cannot distinguish between hate and something clearly milder, sorry. Special pleading noted.
all black grievances...blah
Once again, thank you for your opinion and you are welcome to it.

Just read back lol
OK then what is "hateful" about what a prominent WN like Jared Taylor says,
Taylor (many of whose extreme views appear to echo yours I notice) a courtly presenter of ideas that most would describe as crudely white supremacist, is not someone I have called 'hateful' either. Although others might have other views. Myself, I do not celebrate him.
and how would he raise those exact same grievances without being "hateful"?
He has the good sense to stay on the right side of the law by not, openly at least, being one of the worst.
White identatarian leader (Taylor, Duke, Spencer...) who supported Jan. 6.
Neofascist, white supremacist and other extremist groups like NSC-131, the Proud Boys, the Oath Keepers, 3 Percenters, the Groyper Army, QAnon and various neo-Confederates played a visible role in the Capitol attack. Are you suggesting that none of their leaders approved? We have quotes such as “The Proud Boys will turn out in record numbers on Jan 6th but this time with a twist…,” Henry “Enrique” Tarrio, the group’s president, in a late-December post on Parler. Or Stewart Rhodes, a former soldier and Yale law school graduate, who founded the Oath Keepers in 2009 and built it into a nationwide network, was caught standing outside the Capitol egging on his gang too.

Yes you can distinguish between hate speech and legit ethnic grievances. Saying "ethnic group X are scum and they need to be expelled" is hate speech. Saying "ethnic group X are an economic and crime burden on the country and we ought to stop importing them and we ought to put pressure on their communities to improve" is a legit grievance and a valid political argument provided the data is correct.
How are Taylor's views extreme? He is a White advocate no more extreme than Ibram Kendi or Al Sharpton for Blacks. In fact he wants less for Whites that the previous two hoaxers demand for Blacks.
Why are you changing topic to groups like Proud Boys and Oath Keepers (who aren't even White nationalists). Isn't one of their leaders mixed Black and Latino? LOL. Either show me which prominent White nationalist supported Jan. 6 or admit WN don't have a double standard which is what I asked for. Hell even if they did support Jan. 6 it wouldn't be what I asked for since I asked for a double standard when it comes to RACE.

But you earlier told me that the UK rioting was airing 'grievances', which according to you cannot be distinguished from hate. There was also quite a bit of hate in the Insurrection.

QED and thank you. I shall refer to this admission of yours in future. It will save time.
which according to you cannot be distinguished from hate.
I never said it cannot be distinguished. It can easily, but I'm asking how do leftists and government distinguish it since they accuse us of "hate"? If all White ethnic grievance is hate, then Whites aren't allowed ti raise political grievances which means we are not a democratic society.
If you think my argument depended on the idea that hate and legit grievances cannot be distinguished then you didn't understand my point.
They are certainly not middle ground.
Appeal to the Overton window in this situation is a logical fallacy since the location of the OW depends on who has power in society. Why should they be seen as "extreme"?
They are not White identatarian. They might be authoritarian and "anti-Semitic" but they are different people than who I am defending (Duke, Taylor)
Thank you for pointing up an extra, racial hypocrisy.
Again changing the topic and ignoring the point. My point was never to defend authoritarian brown anti Semites. My point was to defend White nationalism and White identity. Where is a WN double standard on race?
I never said it cannot be distinguished. It can easily
In which case we can finally move on.
If all White ethnic grievance is hate
Which it is not and no one sensibly suggests this - except those who express hate and then deem it just a grievance, possibly to avoid legal consequences. So again time to move on.
Why should they be seen as "extreme"?
Why not? If the cap fits.., especially, as you admit, the difference between things such as a particular extreme view and a moderate one is easily distinguished.
My point was to defend White nationalism and White identity. Where is a WN double standard on race?
You are repeating yourself again and ignoring my previous, patient answers. A further example of double standards from White identatarians (people who are called "White supremacists") with regards to race is to deny (as you have done all the way along in our exchanges) the right of ethnics to be free from discrimination while expecting that exact same freedom as part of white privilege.
Meanwhile those 'easily found dozen examples' you promised right at the start are still not forthcoming.
reply share
"Which it is not and no one sensibly suggests this"
Basic White arguments "We will become minority in our country" and "Minorities behave worse and are a cost on us" are considered "hate". Those are basic ethnic political grievances. If some ethnic groups cannot raise them, then you cannot claim the UK is about ethnic justice and democracy.
If Blacks are discriminated it's not because Whites are taught to hate them, it's beacuse they behave worse. Freedom from discrimination for an ethnic group not controlling for behavior is not a basic right, it's a special right. Also If Blacks seceeded (as WN want) they would not be discrminated. So how are WN then denying them that right?
What the left demands here is that Whites have an obligation to have a positive view of and never discriminate Blacks in any situation despite Blacks continuing to behave in a way that causes it. This is a special right, not a basic one. This is a privilege.
Basic White arguments "We will become minority in our country" and "Minorities behave worse and are a cost on us" are considered "hate".Those are basic ethnic political grievances
There are different ways of putting the same argument, as I am sure you know. And, you have already told me that you, at least, know the difference between a grievance and hate (as so do juries and I). QED.
f Blacks are discriminated it's not because Whites are taught to hate them, it's beacuse they behave worse.
Stereotyping noted again. Again. How many black faces did one see in the recent riots? Arguably, it is whites who have historically behaved the worse to blacks rather than vice versa.
Freedom from discrimination for an ethnic group not controlling for stereotyping their behavior is not a basic right,
There, I have corrected the above to make it more specific t to your mode of argument.

"There are different ways of putting the same argument,"
Then show me how are White advocates supposed to raise those exact same grievances (and raise them just as effectively) without being accused of "hate"
"Stereotyping noted again."
There are many definitions of stereotype, some include the thesis that the belief has to be wrong, others don't. My premise that Blacks behave worse is not a false one according to all the data.
Whites haven't oppressed Blacks. Exclusion is not oppression unless it's coupled with denial of sovereignty. No ethnic group has an inherent moral obligation to have a positive view of another ethic group and to include them in their society. Especially if the group in question behaves worse.
So changing my comment when quoting me instead of addressing the actual point. How do you define stereotype? Does the belief have to be false?
"Thank you for your opinion"
Ok so you totally avoided addressing the point like usual. And it's not victim blaming since they are not victims given they behave worse. Ethnic groups are not just people with certain skin. They are communities. They are at least to a degree responsible for their aggregate behavior.
"In a 2017–2021 study, Black men received sentences 13.4% longer than white men. ail admissions: Black people are admitted to jail at a higher rate than white or Hispanic people. In 2019, Black people were admitted to jail at least double the rate of white or Hispanic people in some counties. Length of stay: Black people spend longer in jail. Lawyers: Lawyers are less likely to take on clients with Black-sounding names"
Control for crime rates, repeat offenders, court room behavior, IQ, SES (the ability to afford good layers). All of things you listed could be explained by behavior differences. I've linked you a META ANALYSIS (a study of all studies) showing CJS is NOT racist.
"Once again: are you really saying that Blacks are not discriminated against?"
Relative to their behavior, probably not. Blacks as early as 1890 committed much more crime and were 3.5 times more likely to be in prison for murder.
"And there are WN alive who hypocritically supported apartheid in SA."
That was pragmatic to avoid disastrous Black rule. Show me a WN who supports denying Blacks sovereignty today.
"BUT the point is, still that the difference are not enough to determine separate 'races' -despite how it suits those with prejudices to prefer it so."
Call them populations, genetic clusters, whatever you like. In the end, I don't care about the term "race". The point is ethnic groups are on average different.
And yet, how many times have you used it of late? You are being disingenuous.
The point is ethnic groups are on average different.
and the returning point, still, is that enough to discriminate against them with, when science thinks the differences are not really significant?

Yes, you've given data out of context which all could be explained by behavioral differences. In other word, you have totally failed to provide proof of racism CJS

No I asked for current double standards. Apartheid is 30 years old. Show me a prominent WN who currently supports White rule over Blacks (David Duke, Richard Spencer, Jared Taylor....) Besides, they weren't necessarily against Black independence or self rule. They just opposed current Black rule over Whites which is a disaster for both Whites and Blacks.

I said I don't care about the term because philosophy over semantics leads to nowhere. The point is regardless what term you use (race, population, genetic cluster...) there are group differences.
when science thinks the differences are not really significant?
No, science has never disproved racial/ethnic IQ differences. In fact it has never disproven differences in other psy traits such as antisocial behavior, work ethic...etc. We know from twin studies they are heavily genetic.

Virtually every rightwinger on this board implies or states the need for white supremacy, the belief that white people are superior to those of other races and thus should dominate them. This would include rules (over settlement, for instance) that would favour whites over other races.
No I asked for current double standards. Apartheid is 30 years old.
There is no mention of the 'current' in the OP. So, goalpost moving again. The support of apartheid was recent enough to suppose the concept is still supported today. Meanwhile in SA " over 40% of those surveyed think apartheid was a good idea, badly executed. http://www.brandonhamber.com/publications/Journal%20A%20State%20of%20Denial.pdf QED
The point is regardless what term you use (race, population, genetic cluster...) there are group differences.
The real point is that the differences are not biologically significant and to be used as a basis for discrimination and hatred.
We know from twin studies they [differences]are heavily genetic.,
As you have been told already, scientific evidence shows that humans are fundamentally more similar than different from each other. DNA analysis shows that humans are 99.9% identical in their DNA sequence, with the remaining 0.1% being mostly found within the same group. It just suits your preference to over emphasise.
Every ethnic group has a right to have intergroup preference ie discriminate.
Racial discrimination is illegal, esp when associated with hatred and an idea of 'racial superiority', which is in the background of everything here. It is a right wing tactic to make of all their divisive tropes something reasonable and mild, when the opposite is true.
OK what this link you provided prove? What data did they look at? What methodology did they use and what did they control for? A meta analysis in the US has proven CJS isn't racist which puts into question the idea that UK is. Did they control for all Black behavioral differences? (likelihood of taking risks, making stupi crime choices, having worse lawyers due to being poorer, court room behavior...etc) If not, it doesn't prove injustice to Blacks.
Virtually every rightwinger on this board implies or states the need for white supremacy,
So since you can't find an example of a prominent WN who advocates White rule over Blacks, you change the topic to your unproven claim that no name losers on an obscure interne forum support it? Wow if this isn't the most pathetic argument I've come across.
There is no mention of the 'current' in the OP. So, goalpost moving again.
Current is logically implied in the post. Movements are judged by their current positions not their past ones. You are changing my original challenge because you can't name any good examples and you don't want to admit you lost.
South Africa is becoming a failed state. Plenty of Blacks themselves think it was better for them under apartheid. They didn't have a right to vote, but their streets were safer and didn't have as much corruption, blackouts and power outages. Just because a White thinks apartheid was better than current disaster the country is in doesn't mean he would favor White rules over a hypothetica racial split of the country. Show me a modern prominent WN who supports White rule over Blacks ahead of racial separation or admit you don't have an example of double standards.
Discriminatio and resentment (what you call "hate") is a result of differences in behavior and behavior differences have never been proven to be divorced from genetics. All evidence suggests they are connected.
In future I will refer to this post as my answer to your constant denial of the obvious.#
you can't name any good examples and you don't want to admit you lost.
See above and the Oath Takers etc
Just because a White thinks apartheid was better than current disaster the country ...
The fact is that if one does, or some do (the South African whites for instance to which I have linked) then that is hypocrisy, special pleading notwithstanding.

Show me a WN who does not prefer white rule over blacks. I already remember you preferring segregation, right back to sending them home, a de facto segregation of the greatest type.
Discrimination and resentment (what you call "hate") is a result of differences in behavior and behavior differences
I think you attribute racists with too much logic and knowledge; their hatred of ethnics is often not amenable to reason. I also remember how just a few post back you admitted that after all there exists a difference between hate and grievance which shows a. a distinction can be made and b. after all, you do see it.
Does this supposed "evidence" for systemic racism control for possible genetic differences and Black behavior or does it simply assume there are no important differences, ignores behavioral differences between races and asserts Blacks must be victims?
"See above and the Oath Takers etc"
I asked for a double standard of White identatarian specifically and specifically on race. Not ever right wing movement. Name me what WN demand for Whites that they don't grant to Blacks. Answer please, not "please refer to XYZ"
"The fact is that if one does, or some do (the South African whites for instance to which I have linked) then that is hypocrisy, special pleading notwithstanding."
It's only a double standard if they prefer White rule over separation and if they do it today which is what I asked. If I prefer Trump over Kamala that does not mean I agree with Trump on everything. Unfortunately Trump vs Kamala is the only choice. The same with apartheid vs disastrous ANC Black rule.
"Show me a WN who does not prefer white rule over blacks. I already remember you preferring segregation, right back to sending them home, a de facto segregation of the greatest type."
Jared Taylor and David Duke, the 2 most prominent WN do not support White rule over Blacks. So doesn't Nick Griffin in the UK. Segregation is not White rule. Blacks can rule their own communities. US could split apart into 2 entities based on ethnicity like Bosnia has.
"I also remember how just a few post back you admitted that after all there exists a difference between hate and grievance"
When have I said it's impossible for a person to hate someone for irrational reasons based on race? I am saying the general political resentment on behalf of Whites in the current situation happens to be justified. That doesn't mean everyone is necessarily rational.

Racial supremacy. White nationalism originated as a euphemism for white supremacy, the belief that white people are superior to all other races and should therefore dominate society. This is clearly something WNs would deny the blacks et al (see our previous exchanges over Replacement Theory)

Funny you accuse me of diversion while it's you who engages in it. You didn't answer my question. Do these links you posted control for differences in behavior and genetic differences? Precisely HOW is institutional racism measured and what does it control for? And it's not victim blaming since their victim status is precisely what I'm disputing by asking these questions. If Blacks behave worse and are discriminated due to their behavior, they - at least on a collective level - aren't victims which is what you/the left are claiming. And that's granting you the premise that they are actually discriminated.
"Racial supremacy."
What do you mean precisely by "racial supremacy"? I'm asking what basic ethnic RIGHT are they denied? Basically all White nationalist admit East Asians are superior to Whites in intelligence and propensities towards crime, sexual promiscuity, single motherhood etc. WN don't deny superiority of Asians. As for their talk about race differences, they are forced to talk about Black and White differences since Whites are unfairly blamed for Black failure. Most WN do not want artificially rule over anyone. They just want meritocracy and eventually sovereignty for their people. WN want nothing but basic rights for Whites, something all other groups take for granted.
Do these links you posted control for differences in behavior and genetic differences?
Why would they? Such things largely represent just more discredited science from you with this and, as such, is what you want to see rather than what professionals in their respective fields see as sensible or ethical. They might as well be planning around the idea of 'mean Scotsmen' lol
Precisely HOW is institutional racism measured and what does it control for?
Google is your friend. Please see my previous answers.

Ask your white nationalist friends if you are unsure, They aren't. I am surprised you ask this, though since the innate supremacy of whites is often something you argue for, over and over.

"Victim blaming"
Ignoring the argument as usual
"And which 'rights' are not given to whites which the rest of the population enjoy?"
Not a counter argument that race differences cannot be the cause for average behavioral differences. Humans and Chimps are also 98.5% genetically identical
No, all racial discriminations is not illegal. Choosing who to marry or who to invite for dinner is not illegal. White people voting for White identity politics is also not illegal. And plenty of things are illegal and were illegal in history, that doesn't mean they're moral. Making an appeal to current laws is not an argument that those laws are moral.
Race is an obsolete term in the biological and anthropological sciences. Please write this down.
Again using semantics to excuse a dodge. Pathetic. Tell me how do differences between populations (since you don't like the term race) cannot be enough to be the cause of behavioral differences? We know from twin studies all behavior is partially genetic.
Please also write down the difference between private taste and preference and public discrimination.

Apologies for butting in, I'm not in the mood for a debate (I'm drinking at the moment), but there is an account on Twitter that shows statistic after statistic demonstrating that blacks do in fact have lower IQs than Whites and do worse than Whites on many different metrics.
Go follow @eyeslasho on Twitter. He has tons of data to back up these claims.
>What else could it be? Western culture/Youtube/TikTok, atheism, individualism YOLO is everywhere.
More evidence that this in itself some negates birth rates, and if it does, what you propose to do about it.

And they're pro-LGBT, atheist, are they? Everywhere is secretly into porn. I'll await evidence that pornography, or at least secret pornographic consumption behind closed doors somehow negates birth rates.
>More LGBT = less children. Not a huge difference compared to feminism, atheism...etc, but some.
The growth of LGBT people (or rather more people not concealing their sexuality) isn't so large that it somehow dwarfs the amount of straight people, nor somehow causes them to stop having kids. What is it you propose to do about feminism and atheism exactly?

>If all those Western cultural reason aren't a reason for low births, then what is it? It's not economic prosperity. Even you said poor countries still have low births.
It's the consequences of capitalism in sufficiently developed countries that highly discentivises having kids. People focus on their careers, their lifestyles, and/or don't have enough disposable income to raise kids.
Porn reduces relationship quality Bad relationships reduce births.

Change the culture. Ever heard of culture wars?
But younger people in those countries, even if they're less religious than their older counterparts are still more religious than in UK or Sweden or Denmark. Yet still lower birth rates.

This is not true. It was much easier to buy a house in the 50s and 60s, and most incomes could be sustained on a single breadwinner. This matters. Also, contraception was not as widely used at all during that period.
I want evidence that "Western culture/Youtube/TikTok, atheism, individualism" specifically hurts birth rates.
What type of evidence would there be if it was true?
Plenty of people in long-term relationships simply don't have kids and/or have no desire to have them.
When did I say porn is the only factor?
How?
Liberals oppose changing culture. The reply "how would you do it" is not exactly good one, if you yourself are preventing it. Bring back stigma for not having kids, have media promote large families, government incentives...etc.
No, Italy USED To be a conservative and religious. Western culture influence is very high in a country like Italy.
The liberal anti racist ideology is what is the cause of them choosing to not report it. You know the very culture people like you support.
USA in 1960 didn't have higher purchasing power than today, yet it had 3.7 births per woman.
Housing prices are also higher partially due to immigration. I fully support policies to decrease real estate prices. It's not an inherently issue nationalists oppose.
>What type of evidence would there be if it was true?
Exactly. It's impossible to know. You're making claims that can't specifically be backed up.
>Liberals oppose changing culture. The reply "how would you do it" is not exactly good one, if you yourself are preventing it. Bring back stigma for not having kids, have media promote large families, government incentives...etc.
And what would this stigma look like in practice? The media is independent. You can't make them promote things. There are already lots of government incentives for having kids in most countries.
>No, Italy USED To be a conservative and religious. Western culture influence is very high in a country like Italy.
Italy still is conservative comparatively. But it, Poland and Greece have worse birth rates than more secular western examples.
>USA in 1960 didn't have higher purchasing power than today, yet it had 3.7 births per woman.
So you don't have an arguments why my explanation is unlikely to be true or what kind of evidence would there be if it was true. OK. So you should admit, my explanation isn't unlikely to be true then.
And what would this stigma look like in practice? The media is independent. You can't make them promote things. There are already lots of government incentives for having kids in most countries.
The same kind of stigma that the left created towards "racism" and "transphobia" over the last few years. The people who control the institutions and guide the culture could create sigma if they wanted to. Present the crisis to the public, explain how immigration is not the solution (stop hiding the cost of non Western immigrants for the purpose of PC) and the public will accept that higher births are the only way to go. Stigma will naturally follow. Right now the media and the ruling class do the opposite. They write articles how child free life is wonderful and having White children perpetuates racism and harms the environment.
Those policies didn't go far enough. They only included child leave and kindergarten costs and so on. The government could literally give people money for having more kids (instead of spending that money on foreign aid and so called "refugees"). This is an existential crisis for our counties and the entire Western civilization. Under this realization, the public would support more money being spent. Right now this isn't being done because the media lies to the public that brown immigrants will turn out just fine (which the data contradicts but the media doesn't report on it in order to not "perpetuate negative stereotypes").
I didn't say incentives would solve the problem on it's own. But in combination with ideological culture shift, it could increase births to at least much closer to 2 children per woman which isn't that high.
Housing prices has gone up, but that is partially the result of regulation to building

>The same kind of stigma that the left created towards "racism" and "transphobia" over the last few years. The people who control the institutions and guide the culture could create sigma if they wanted to.
Who are "these people" that supposedly control the media and can just impose social stigma at will, purely happening in a few years? How can they do this?
>Present the crisis to the public, explain how immigration is not the solution (stop hiding the cost of non Western immigrants for the purpose of PC) and the public will accept that higher births are the only way to go.
We have a free press. The press is free to report on what it likes. Do you understand this?
>Stigma will naturally follow. Right now the media and the ruling class do the opposite. They write articles how child free life is wonderful and having White children perpetuates racism and harms the environment.
No, this is not a normal position. This is just bullshit. Some stupid Comment is Free article from The Guardian does not remotely represent the average position of the wider Uk press. Stop making shit up.

Again, no, this does not happen. Much of the media openly reports about cultural clashes from migrants coming in the country. The majority of the UK wishes to to lower immigration, and most of the press is moderately anti-immigration.
>Housing prices has gone up, but that is partially the result of regulation to building
It's due to population, supply of houses and many other factors. Not just regulation at all (whatever you mean by that).
I never said it's "at will". Tell the truth to the public about 1. Current racial differences in behavior and 2. The fact racial equality has never been proven and that it's very likely to be false. It will be a floodgate from that.
So the leftist press does things that prevent the very same culture change needed to increase birth rates while at the same time using low births to convince people to take immigrants. If you are creating a problem, you don't get to complain about it and use it to your advantage.
"Some stupid Comment is Free article from The Guardian does not remotely represent the average position of the wider Uk press"
I's not just one article. It's a pattern that the media is leftist and tends to not encourage high births. If low births are a threat to a country, the media should encourage it.
"Again, no, this does not happen."
So you are saying the media objectively reports about minority crime, welfare use and other negative behavior like grooming gangs? That is fairly reports on the possibility that some racial groups could be inherently prone to worse behavior? This is just pure BS and you know it.
"It's due to population, supply of houses and many other factors. Not just regulation at all (whatever you mean by that)."
Supply of houses is lower because of environmental regulation and demand is higher because of immigration. Both leftist policies.
I'm not a liberal, but I am definitely pro-anti-racism. I'd like to accept your challenge.
However, since who qualifies as a white identitarian might be subject to debate, why don't you choose the name of someone well-known for being a white identitarian (aka 'white supremacist'), and I'll try providing a single example?
OK name me an example of a double standard from Jared Taylor. Caveat: even if you find one, that doesn't prove White identatarians in general have double standards. I am one, yet I don't have a single double standard. I can't necessarily defend Jared Taylor, I'm not Jared Taylor. But I can defend myself and my views.
Jared Taylor's rhetoric aligns closely with traditional white supremacy, even though he avoids that label. By questioning what other races contribute to society and advocating for racial separation under the guise of "racial realism" or "white identitarianism," Taylor appears to rebrand white supremacist ideas to make them more intellectually defensible.
Rebranding White Supremacy
Taylor attempts to soften the image of white supremacy by framing it in more intellectual terms. As a "racial realist," he distances himself from overt racism, but the core ideas remain the same:
* Focus on Racial Differences: He emphasizes perceived inherent differences between races, a cornerstone of white supremacist ideology.
* Preservation of White Culture: His advocacy for preserving white culture implies its superiority or greater worth.
* Opposition to Multiculturalism: Taylor's opposition to multiculturalism and non-white immigration mirrors the white supremacist belief that racial diversity is harmful.
Misleading Denials
Taylor's rejection of the white supremacist label is likely a strategic move to avoid its stigma while promoting similar ideas. This tactic broadens his appeal by presenting his views as rational concerns for cultural preservation rather than overt racial hatred. Despite his claims, the substance of his arguments remains closely aligned with white supremacy.
If you've reached this far and are still wondering how this relates to a double standard, consider this analogy: It's like someone committed a number of crimes, but insisting he shouldn’t be called a criminal.
I didn't ask you copy paste someone's personal opinion on Jared Taylor. I asked you to give an example of a double standards. Being labelled a "White supremacist" is not a double standard. Name me one thing that the demands for Whites which he doesn't extend to Blacks or others. I can name you a dozen examples of double standards from the left.
Everything. Someone wrote that. Show me his double standards. Where does he claim Blacks don't have right to sovereignty, identity, pride, history and biological continuation of existence? Plenty mainstream leftist intellectuals don't allow this for Whites.
Everything? David1616, have you considered that you might be operating with a built-in double standard when it comes to distinguishing between fact-based conclusions and people's unsubstantiated opinions and beliefs?
All I see in that copy pasted opinion piece of yours is name calling. "White supremacist" is of course a false accusation since he nor his movement advocates ruling over anyone. A proper term would be "White separatist" or a "White advocate". He is no different than Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton except for Whites. In fact, he wants less for Whites than these two clowns want for Blacks.
If we lived in an alternate reality where it was Africans who sailed over to Europe and captured white people and took them back to Africa and sold them there as slaves, it would be the other way around. Then you could go around being a white power racist freak and nobody would be irked by it. Sound good?
Yeah that doesn’t work. Blacks were captured by black slavers who sold them to Arabs, Europeans, whoever wanted them.
Also, the only remarkable thing about Europeans when it comes slavery is that they abolished the practice.
Slavery continues today on a scale much larger than the trans-Atlantic slave trade ever was, yet you conveniently ignore this since it doesn’t fit your racist agenda.
Half of the US abolished the practice. The other half refused to abolish it and was willing to literally go to war to keep slavery legal. And to this day many of their ancestors are still butt hurt that they lost and can't have n-word slaves in 2024.
Yeah, there is still a lot of slavery in today's world. But you can't name one single country in the world where it's still legal. It's only committed by corrupt outlaws. Same as any other crime. So whatever you thought your point was there, pfft.
Pathetic response which in no way refutes what I said, and in no way excuses your racist insane focus on the vanishingly small proportion of slavery conducted by whites to the exclusion of the far greater proportion committed by non-whites (which continues to this day)
And this…

In what way using fact to contradict your point not refute it? You said a vanishingly small proportion of slavery was conducted by whites, when it is historically true that Britain and Portugal were the most dominant countries in the transatlantic slave trade. Based on data concerning 86% of all slaving vessels leaving for the New World, it has been estimated that the British, including British colonials, and the Portuguese, accounted for seven out of ten transatlantic slaving voyages and carried nearly three quarters of all people embarking from Africa destined for slavery. Please stop. But you won't.

My supposed Proud Boy membership is yet another figment of your diseased Leftoid imagination. Take CNN’s dick out of your mouth for one second and think.
Whites never captured anyone. They bought existing slaves, 30-50% of Africa were slaves before European colonization. Since slavery was naturally seen as moral in a scarcity ridden society, and Whites bought them with their own money, one could even easily argue Whites had the right to own them. Then they freed them at their own will. Arab countries abolished slavery in the 1960s when Whites were singing under the rainbow with flowers in their hair, yet Whites are the only people today to feel guilty about slavery.
Between 1441 and 1444, Portuguese navigators exploring the west coast of Africa captured the first contingents of Africans on the Mauritanian coast and subsequently shipped them to Portugal. The first example we have of Africans being taken against their will and put on board European ships would take the story back to 1441, when the Portuguese captured 12 Africans in Cabo Branco—modern-day Mauritania in north Africa—and brought them to Portugal as enslaved peoples

Is this a debate about slavery in Brazil and Portugal or in America? In any case, Arabs captured European slaves, yet today nobody blames them. It's only Whites who are told we must feel guilty. My point stands.

The context is White guilt. Since you haven't responded to any of my arguments above, my point stands
Not about whites 'never capturing anyone' it doesn't.
And if the context is that 'white guilt' thing of yours then given whites, apart from the capturing bit, ran most of the trade then their guilt is the highest.
Slavery was seen as moral by basically everyone in the world back then. Almost everyone practiced it. Arab slavery was worse and lasted longer yet there is no Arab guilt today, the same with everyone else. My point about White guilt being unfair to Whites is valid. White guilt is simply a result of Whites being held to a higher standard than anyone else.
Er... some Arab leaders have expressed guilt and regret over their involvement in the African slave trade, including Muammar Gaddafi: In 2010, Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi apologized for Arab involvement in the African slave trade, saying "I regret and I am ashamed when we remember these practices"
Even if that Arabe were supine here was the case, that just shows Arabs are more hypocritical than whites; but then again they didn't run most of the trade beyond capture. Based on that fact, one would expect White guilt ought to be proportionately greater. And, if one is arguing that whites are generally superior to every other ethnic group, then why should they not be looked at to reflect some moral superiority? reply share

Ghadaffi is just one leader. He embraced Afrocentrism out of his political strategic reasons. Blacks today don't hate Arabs and demand reparations from them.

It is certainly true that guilt is more likely and more prominent in the West. I am sure there is a gene for that, eh?
Blacks today don't ... demand reparations from them.
Proponents of anti-Arab black nationalism have demanded reparations from the Arab League for “Afro-Arab slavery”. eg Nigerian Nobel laureate Wole Soyinka for instance is probably the most renowned proponent of the view that Islam and the Arabs are as guilty of the “the cultural and spiritual savaging of the continent” as the West. Nigerian poet J. P. Clarke: “If the European states are to pay, so must the Arab states, and so must the African states set up by the Europeans…if the eminent personalities now addressing the matters of redress are not to be accused of casuistry and of applying double standards.” Etc. I hope that helps.
How is BUYING someone legally in a society where nobody sees slavery as immoral worse than CAPTURING him?
It is not, but the historical truth is that nearly all the trade was due to the demand from, through the transportation, and the use of slaves, by whites. Would the unfortunates be as likely to be captured if there was no white interest in their fate? Hey, perhaps blacks have a gene predisposing them to be enslaved? As already said, if we are considering whites as supposedly 'superior' to anyone else, then we ought to be held to higher moral standards.
Current society does not consider Whites superior
It depends on what part of society one relates to, and perhaps apologises for. White Supremacists, for instance may wish to disagree with you. The last presidential campaign of Donald Trump led to a surge of interest in white supremacy and white nationalism in the United States, bringing increased media attention and new members to their movement; his campaign enjoyed their widespread support. As of 2018, there were over 600 white-supremacist organizations recorded in the U.S. It is fair to say that these 'don't celebrate' ethnics as equals. reply share

Ok two statements. It still stands that the Black agitation over slavery is WAY more focused on the West than to Arabs. And if we ignore historical context and unjustifiably apply modern morality to the past, then Blacks also owe Pygmies for stealing their land as well as Kalahari Bushmen, not to mention how they treat them TODAY
It is not,
OK so you admit I have a point?
but the historical truth is that nearly all the trade was due to the demand from, through the transportation, and the use of slaves, by whites
Black Africa was 30-50% slaves before European colonization. They had slaves for as long as they existed. Even if some people ended up being captured by Blacks due to White demand that doesn't justify modern guilt since it ignores historical context, applies modern moral standards to a very different world in the past and is more disproportionately focused on Whites.
Hey, perhaps blacks have a gene predisposing them to be enslaved?
Yes very possible. Low intelligence means less civilization and less useful goods produced which could be used for trade, creating a situation where slaves are the only commodity.
As already said, if we are considering whites as supposedly 'superior' to anyone else, then we ought to be held to higher moral standards.
They are currently not seen as superior by any anyone respected...yet still held to higher standards. Pick one, you can't have both

I will agree that there appears a greater moral conscience for many things in the West, sometimes for good reason, as we have explored. By colonisation and military force, Whites have been in the military and economic ascendancy for hundreds of years. If your point is that as others don't we need not either, then fair enough; but that is not a moral argument. In fact I would say, good for us. But you asked for an example of Arab guilt, and I gave you one.
so you admit I have a point?
The historical truth is, still, that nearly all the trade was due to the demand from, through the transportation, and the use of slaves by the West.
Black Africa was 30-50% slaves before European colonization.
That is irrelevant to the guilt of the West for their part which was considerable. And as you think white culture etc is superior then we ought to hold ourselves to superior standards. Or presumable we are just as bad as 'them'.

A right wing trope, What happens is just that of some right wing white males we expect better. Perhaps better, say, than racial hatred of others based on poor science, or rioting and insurrection.
What good reasons? Name me a good reason why the guilt should be more directed against the West than to Arabs. If you ask me the real reason is that the West unlike Arabs is succeptable to guilt and has more riches to give them. This is what Whites get for being the only self critical race on the planet. Instead of credit, we get hated even more.

How is it an irrelevant argument that almost half of Black Africa used to be slaves before Whites arrived and that Whites ended slavery in Africa? No, even if we accept Whites as superior that does not mean it's automatically justified to hold us to higher standards. An upstanding citizen will not be penalized for a crime any more than a crook. And today any notion of moral superiority of the West is vehemently denied. Even if you accept that superiors ought to be held to higher standards, this should not be applied until the West is universally accepted to be superior. Right now, lefties have their cake and eat it too. The West is not seen as superior, but is held to higher standards.
Funny you quote Wokey-pedia, I looked at the article on African history about 10 years ago and it literally said they had no original written language, built no 2 story buildings, never build any mechanical device, domesticated any animals or built a ship that was sea worthy. Now after Trump won the elections, society went woke, "racism" was recognize as a serious threat, anything became justified in fighting against it, suddenly Wikipedia says Africa was civilized. Funny how that works, eh? Wikipedia has been proven to have a left bias. Even it's founder says it's not trust

So you admit Whites generally didn't capture slaves like the Arabs yet you still insist, guilt should be specifically directed to Whites. I fail to see any arguments of why in your reply. As for "look at ourselves" this creates an imbalance since we are the only ones blaming ourselves but nobody else is which causes exploitation by others who aren't at all self critical. It's like "weapons are evil so we will get rid of them" mentality while nobody else does it. This unique guilt is destroying the West and Whites. Also any notion of guilt for past behavior during the conquest ethic is faulty since it holds past behavior in a totally different world to current moral standards.

So you don't deny mainstream society and the left is hypocritical when it holds Whites to higher standards, but denies their superiority? Also holding someone to higher standards is still unfair even if they are superior.
Fallacies of White guilt:
1. Applying modern moral standards to the past in a totally different world
2. Singling out Whites and failing to hold others who behaved equally to the same standards
3. Blaming modern people who weren't even alive then for the sins of their ancestors
White guilt is easily dismissed as unfair to Whites on any of these points, let alone all of them.

Since you now mention it, I fully recognise the role of some enlightened whites in ending the trade. In the UK however it took years and years; in the US it took a war.

When we can remember how much of the success and wealth of the West, which we still enjoy down the line, was originally built on an odious trade the connections of which, are even today sometimes reluctantly dragged into light,. Even when the trade was abolished in the UK it is significant that substantial compensation was largely paid to the owners and not their 'lost property'.

Ignoring the point and straw mining it. I said you are focused on blame on Whites, but not on others who are much less apologetic therefor you are biased against Whites. And that's not even going into the fact that past actions in a different world ought not to be judged by present moral standards stemming from a modern world.
"In the UK however it took years and years; in the US it took a war."
Your point being Whites are not perfect my today's moral standards. Yes it took a war, but compared to who? Others like Arabs who abolished it when US was listening to Michael Jackson? (Mauritania abolished it in 1981). Remember the context of disagreement is not weather or not Whites behaved benign by present standards, but weather or not Whites today should have unique guilt over slavery.
Success of the West was built by IQ (genetics), individualism, protestant work ethic, democracy, rule of law, industrialization and enlightenment/science. All of that came from White people.
"Even when the trade was abolished in the UK it is significant that substantial compensation was largely paid to the owners and not their 'lost property"
Slavery was moral back then. If we had to return to living like people in the 1700s, I guarantee you, slavery would have slowly become moral again.
I already addressed this. IQ superiority is not necessarily moral superiority. And even if I claim Whites are morally superior, I don't have to mean they were always morally superior. You on the other hand deny any racial differences, yet hold Whites to higher standards by your own admission. You are the epitome of a hypocrite.

Just because they might be a bit more moral than brown people, doesn't mean they ought to be held to unrealistic standards (practicing conquest during a time of extreme scarcity, when it was a universal ethic throughout the world). Whites were the first to free another ethnic group for slavery and they are the only group who ever fought for rights of someone else beside themselves. Yet they get no credit for it.

Yet liberals don't hold those accountable, but they do hold Whites. Yet again a double standard.
The main reason being that, once again, the capture of slaves aside, as we both agreed it was whites who predominated in the trade. But where exactly do Liberals not hold any participants in the trade 'not accountable'? This is just as tendentious view of history as you accuse other of. The truth is more likely to be simply that the unpleasant historical realities of history are most naturally looked at closest to home first, especially when we claim supposedly higher standards of ourselves in the democratic and liberal West. Please refer to this answer in future.

Yes I did say that, but you and most of modern progressive society disagrees with that that so I'm throwing it back at your face. Also when have Whites conducted mass human sacrifice?
