Did you know that globalism actually hurts none-Western countries? Westerners find the Japanese conformist culture to be restrictive, but Japanese consider it to be "the harmony between a people who know exactly what to expect from one another" and that offends you because you have a imperialistic western mindset and can't accept the thought of people maintaining their own traditions and culture.

Even if they are educated. I have for example very thick curly hair and this somehow intimidates people and thus they think I'm the bitch of a terrorist or something even though I am educated and friendly. If I was white they wouldn't look down on me. Even though I am half Asian (I basically look 0% Asian) they still see me as a terrorist. If I was black looking shit would get worse. If I was white they would treat me like a goddess and I've seen it with my very own eyes, my cousin looks white (she is half Asian too) and she is viewed as a messiah.

Come on white girl, your people conquered the whole world. Are you telling me you are afraid of us silly shitskins? Most of whites are racist because they AREN'T afraid. They just hate everything that isn't white because blacks in general are poor and retarded. I guess I can understand it's annoying to be surrounded around uncivilized cockroaches. Sounds like some national geographic survival of the fittest, I know.
Anyways my point is, it doesnt matter if we are civilized white people will hate everything non-white forever. Except the Japanese people and other "good" Asians of course. And yes, black people too, if this will continue, will forever be scum.

Yet at the same time cops are killing black people and get off scot free. Funny how the world works.

>>19860This is very true honestly.
One time we went to this Chinese store when I was younger in the states, and that was my first time noticing workers watching us throughout the store when the other women were shopping just fine.
Just for clarification though, my mom and I didn't have the good black stereotype.
Mom just cut off her relaxed ends And hat in twists turning into locs at the time, and I was a little weirdo skipping around following my mom like it was no one's business with messy nappy hair.
I noticed somewhat, but my mom waited until we left to tell me.
Another time, were looking around the mall in St. Martin, and this white/French woman saw me and my Mom coming in the elevator and stuffed her ass into the corner like were gonna do her something. Then she starting holding her purse. Again, I noticed, but I didn't think anything of it.
Needless to say, my mom promptly stuffed me in the corner also, and stayed in the middle of the elevator sorta near her.(Don't worry, it was only two floors so no one else was coming on)
In both cases, we weren't rude or loud. But I guess because we're black, we would steal? Sad to think about really, but places are slowly getting rid of the stereotype. And again, sadly the loud obnoxious ones will ruin it.
Some decide "BECAUSE I GOT A BAD LIFE FUCK EVERYONE. THE GOVERNMENT HOLDING US BLACK PEOPLE BACK."
Yes people who came from places like the projects have told me that.
A bad life doesn't give anyone the right to act like an loud bitch, but you know what it does do? Give people two decisions, let their life rule them, or raise out of it, and get somewhere. I mean, look at Ben Carson, or those 3 doctors.
Anyway, if black people stop acting like hoodrats, and stop producing these 'ghetto' movies that are 'funny' and making fun of black people, probably foreigners who don't have actual access to real black people won't stereotype.
But you know, I according to some, I'm a self hating black.

>>19866Many POC do want white people to apologize for slavery and shit. Just because you don't feel that way doesn't mean every other poc is like you.
Well in truth a lot of don't have relation to slavery. Many whites immigrated here after that, including my own family. Plus slaves were kept by rich white people, not every white person in the 1800s was rich. Even if they did that doesn't make them personally responsible. Like if your family member murdered someone should you be sent to prison too?
Blacks are racist too. The only difference is they don't run the country and whites do. Its just funny how a black person can make fun of "pasty mayo skin" but if a white person called a black person something equally stupid and immature they would be demonized. Blacks can pretty much openly mock white people but whites can't get away with doing something like that.

Us blacks also sold slaves and there were many race traitors so we deserve it. The winner wins. Countries get conquered. Why get mad about this? It's just that white people are doing this for a very long time and very cruel. Anyways…
Black people dont actually give a shit about black people, why do you think no one bails black people out of jail? But when they commit suicide everyone, especially blacks, suddenly loves them. Maybe because they are dead? (just joking) Also, the reason why cops can kill niggers is because no one cares.

You're a hypocrite yourself too. There are many forums dedicated to make fun of black people. And if you had friends you'd know the mean kids in school who made fun of black hair. You do know white people made fun of my hair in it's natural state even though it was tamed down? It seems like both races pretend to be victims, although blacks sometimes actually are victims. Sometimes.

We learn lots about white groups who lashed out against blacks during the civil rights movement, but we learn nothing about all the violence black committed during this time. The protests were portrayed as peacfull and the cops evilfor doing their jobs. There was a black civil rights activist who was a convicted rapist and raped white women as "a revolutionary act". Please stop talking, our textbooks always side with the none-whites and do so for no reason other than them not being white you fucktard.

>>19963>trying to derail this hardFirst off, I don't believe in being "proud of your culture" unless you yourself did something to contribute to what that culture is today. I haven't done shit, so I don't give a fuck about "pride". I'm not going to pretend the exceptional people on earth are somehow representative of myself, or at least not until I actually prove myself to be among their ranks.
Secondly, why is your response to simply being told to accept every facet of your heritage if you're going to jump on the "I'm proud of my ancestors, we did so much!! :^)" boat something along the lines of "But…But the people who aren't white! They sometimes do this thing"? This isn't about them, it's about you specifically and your retarded, arbitrary attempt at picking and choosing what constitutes your heritage and what doesn't.
Thirdly, what money and aid? For just one example, even when black people were given rights in the US, they weren't allowed to own land or have decent schools, among other things until very, very recently. This wasn't a million years ago, either, yu literally have grandparents who were alive in that time. That's not even touching COINTELPRO, the Tuskegee Syphillis Experiments, how Native Americans are living today (correct me if I'm wrong, but they're literally being charged ridiculous prices for
expired food), etc. If you're from a European country, these examples don't apply, but in all likelihood there is still something (especially if you're Belgian, British or French). If you're South African, there's an entirely new library of fucked up shit to open up.

>>20034by your logic our ancestors should be proud of us
what that anon was getting at is that you can't be proud of all the good things your ancestors have done while also neglecting to acknowledge the atrocities they committed. You have to accept all aspects of your ancestors history. It makes sense to be proud of their good deeds and angry at the pain they caused, but to completely dismiss their wrong doings or blaming it on their victims is disgusting.
How many times do you come across the argument "well africans also enslaved other africans and sold off africans to whites" when people say rich white people enslaving black people was wrong? Enslaving people is wrong regardless of who did it. That shouldn't be the counter argument. Yes, it should be brought up, but that should not be the justification for why rich whites enslaved blacks. Doing so makes it seem as though they did not have any other choice or were forced to somehow.
Black people have to live with the fact that most of the world sees them through one lens, with their good deeds often
not being celebrated unless brought up themselves. I'm not referring to America here either, but if you were to ask people about whites and blacks around the world, almost no good black history facts will be mentioned.

This is why people all over the world fight so hard to protect their culture in the face of globalization. Do you even know what culture and heritage is and what it constitutes? You don't care about yours, so I doubt it. Why do you believe that preserving your culture entails lying about history?
Sub Saharan African tribes have a long history of killing one another and taking women as sex slaves. By your logic, this is part of their "culture". They can't pick and choose what part of their heritage they like, gawd!
Do you seriously not know about all the humanitarian aid that Europe and America throw at Africa because they can't figure out farming and wont stop spreading AIDS through rape?
>>"I'm proud of my ancestors, we did so much!! :^)When did I say anything about my ancestors? I am not my ancestors. I'm proud of my culture, it made me who I am today and it's great. You aren't proud of yours because it sucks.
Blacks had power over their own schools, but they sucked because blacks can't maintain a dignified society. Other European ethnic group who faced the same discrimination have come a much farther way than blacks without the help of affirmative action and without the rioting and violence.
>>COINTELPROThey monitored white nationalist movements too you retard. Have you seen the shit black panthers say?
>>Natives They are basically their own country, so they need to maintain their own shit. Despite that, the government throws money at them anyways.
And also, not to be a dick, but your country would probably be complete shit without colonization. If it is shit, then it would probably be great if Europe still had power over it. China is getting colonial now, except they don't try to build the community in the lands their in, they just suck them dry.

Meaning moat African tribes, depending where they are, already should know how to farm and take care of themselves from their ancestors. Are you telling me they actually regressed? What part of Africa are we talking about here? Because some African cities are very prosperous, sadly all we see in the media is bumfuck, huts, and deaseases.
Anyway, I think Sub-Saharan Africa's case is that they have leaders and groups that take the money for themselves shellfishly and don't help their countries with it. A very bad, and ignorant government, leaving their people to suffer.

>Why do you believe that preserving your culture entails lying about history?What are you even talking about? There's more than one anon ITT disagreeing with you. Outright lying about history certainly. isn't above most cultures, though.
>Sub Saharan African tribes have a long history of killing one another and taking women as sex slaves. By your logic, this is part of their "culture". They can't pick and choose what part of their heritage they like, gawd!Which ones? I'm honestly curious to see how much you actually know about Sub-Saharan Africa and if you're not just talking from your ass. And what do you mean "by my logic"? That's
your logic. They shouldn't be proud of that under any circumstances because it's fucing despicable, but in your world of "Muh culture made me who I am today it's great XDD", I guess they should. That's your line of thinking.
>Do you seriously not know about all the humanitarian aid that Europe and America throw at Africa because they can't figure out farming and wont stop spreading AIDS through rape?You seriously believe any of that money goes to the people who are meant to receive it?

>When did I say anything about my ancestors? I am not my ancestors. I'm proud of my culture, it made me who I am today and it's great. Heritage usually includes ancestors. Stop trying to argue semantics to dodge the topic. Sure, there are some good things to white culture, but you still need to acknowledge all the horrible things that are a part of it. Sorry, you can't pick and choose what you like.
>You aren't proud of yours because it sucks.This 12 year old tier bait
>Blacks had power over their own schools, but they sucked because blacks can't maintain a dignified society. Or, maybe, possibly it's because they were literally bred to be workers, usually not educated at all (so how would they teach?) and were given the bare minimum of things to be able to live. I'm not sure you understand that these people, by law, were not allowed to live like real human beings for a long time. There is no "they had power". They had none. There may have been a small illusion of it, but it just wasn't a thing back then, which is partly why African-American culture still has so many problems today.
>Other European ethnic group who faced the same discrimination have come a much farther way than blacks without the help of affirmative action and without the rioting and violence.AA mainly benefits white women, and pretty much no radical social change has ever come about without riots or some other expression of rage or force. You'd realize these things if you actually cracked open a book.
>They monitored white nationalist movements too you retard. Have you seen the shit black panthers say?COINTELPRO mainly targeted black people. Can you justify their attacks on the Civil Rights Movement at all?
>They are basically their own country, so they need to maintain their own shit.

"The government throws money at them" is not a good defense when they're oppressed in plenty of other ways by that very same government.
>And also, not to be a dickWhat's the point of beginning a deliberately dickish comment with "not to be a dick"?
>but your country would probably be complete shit without colonization. So, why would you tell me to "take responsibility" for it having western cultural aspects? You need to quit trying to jump around subjects to avoid the obvious.
>If it is shit, then it would probably be great if Europe still had power over it. This is just an idiotic comment all around. It would probably be "great" for white people. For me and others like me? Not so much. Colonization was all about glorifying the colonizers and hurting the Natives of that land. They'd build things up as they saw fit, yes, but only for themselves. You don't break into someone's house, force them to live in the basement, then remodel the rest of the house which you then proceed to live in and pretend you're a good, kind-hearted person for it.
That, and "complete shit" is relative. The people who were living here before colonization saw no reason to change their way of life personally, so why is it so bad? It's not like it's for you.
>China is getting colonial now, except they don't try to build the community in the lands their in, they just suck them dry.What does this have to do with anything in this discussion? You really like pulling that "But those other people…!" shit a lot, don't you?
>Wait wait wait. So only white people must take responsibility for what their ancestors did, is that correct?I'm trying really hard to assume you're just going through a small slip of logic, not that you're fucking retarded. I literally typed up a rant on how you have nothing to do with what your ancestors did, your culture or your heritage at the very start of my response. I don't think like you do because I'm not some fuckhead who thinks they're entitled to others' accomplishments. The only way to come to that conclusion is if you somehow STILL think that I believe the same things you do.

>>20057The government in Sub-Saharan African countries is complete shit (not sure about the rest). All this "aid" is distributed among the government (or other leaders), who use this money for their own benefits. There's a fucking reason these charity drives have been a thing for so long, and it's because these exact same people from the commercials are either dead or still starving, sick, poor and/or illiterate (not to mention issues no one seems very fond of bringing up in relation to Africa, like mental illness and drug addiction). They're not getting the help they need at all. To be successful and African at the same time, you need to either work your ass off and pray you get lucky, or already be born in a certain class of people.
As for what the people can do? Basically nothing. They're not educated enough to understand the full scale of how badly they're being fucked over, and the few that do understand just don't have the resources to help themselves out of the gutter. The leaders take full advantage of this, and the upper class don't give a shit about anyone but themselves. It's really fucked.

>>20067This.
You must understand that aid (in the form of money) Will Not Lift Growth in Africa. Most of the aid is linked to rampant corruption throughout the continent, why these charities are so blind to the fact that the donating money does not reach those in need but instead is used to fuel bloated bureaucracies, governments and donor-funded non-governmental organizations is beyond me. Last year, The African Union estimated that corruption was costing the whole continent $150 billion per year, while international donars were turning a blind eye to the fact that aid money was inadvertently fueling graft. Let's look at Zaire for example, now known as The Democratic Republic of The Congo in the present day, a man named Irwin Blumenthal, who the international monetary fund appointed as the head of Zaire's central bank, warned that in 1978 that the system was so corrupt there was absolutely no prospect for Zaire's creditors to get their money back at all. But still, the IMF went ahead and gave the largest loan ever given to any African nation, later on, a watch dog called Transparency International reported that Zaire's president, Mobutu Sese Seko had embezzled five fucking billion dollars throughout the 60s and 70s. This has happened many times throughout time, why just a few years ago Bakili Muluzi of Malawi embezzled assets of $12 million, A constant stream of "free" money is a perfect way to keep an inefficient or simply bad government in power. As aid flows in, there is nothing more for the governments to do – it doesn't need to raise taxes, and as long as it pays the army, it doesn't have to take account of its disgruntled citizens. No matter that its citizens are disenfranchised (as with no taxation there can be no representation). All the government really needs to do is to court and cater to its foreign donors to stay in power. This has nothing to do with white people. This is a problem that must be resolved internally.
People think that many African countries are desolate shitholes that require mighty whitey to swoop in and save the day when that's not the case. Nairobi, for example, is a huge city. Relatively developed too. But corruption is the biggest problem in Africa (and, by extent, Kenya) that many people can't make ends meet. This breeds crime and massive discrepancies in social class. If you walk down the street, someone will stop you and ask you to give them your mobile phone, any valuables and whatever else or they'll kill you. For this reason many people carry two mobile phones, a shitty dumbphone and their normal one. Lately they've caught on so now they know to demand you give them both.
The law enforcement is corrupt as fuck and many middle-class citizens often hire bodyguards (absolutely massive men, by the way) to sleep in front of the front door at night. The others have no choice but to remain in squalor and hope for the best.
Now, despite all this, African countries have great pride in their respective heritage and culture. Most African fashion designers don't take inspiration from the West but do their own thing and create unique, original designs. Many people are proud of them.
Why shouldn't white people be proud of their own culture and heritage? They have it drilled into their heads in school that what their ancestors had done was bad. You think they don't acknowledge that? Lol. Of course there's stubborn idiots who think Hitler had done nothing wrong, but you're delusional if you think they're in the majority.

>>20063Do you know what pride is?
>> With a positive connotation, pride refers to a satisfied sense of attachment toward one's own or another's choices and actions, or toward a whole group of people, and is a product of praise, independent self-reflection, or a fulfilled feeling of belonging.So, please explain. Why exactly do I have no right to be proud? You're accusing me of taking credit for what my ancestors did when I said no such thing. It seems like your definition of pride is to take credit for something, is it? When did I take credit for my culture being what it is? You're argument is nothing but strawmen and whining holy shit.
No. 20075
>>20073The issue with you being "proud" is that at the same time, you're sweeping everything you don't like under the rug and trying to hide behind the fact that you're not your ancestors. It's not sensible. All of these things are your heritage.
>makes retarded arguments>gets corrected>"No! You're just whining! Muh strawman!"Alright then. Show me where I made a strawman argument exactly, all I've done is respond to your points. By the way, pride is
>1. a high or inordinate opinion of one's own dignity, importance, merit, or superiority, whether as cherished in the mind or as displayed in bearing, conduct, etc.>2. the state or feeling of being proud.>3. a becoming or dignified sense of what is due to oneself or one's position or character; self-respect; self-esteem.>4. pleasure or satisfaction taken in something done by or belonging to oneself or believed to reflect credit upon oneself:civic pride.
Pretty sure all of these definitions agree with what I was saying.
>>20074Either you're playing dumb or you didn't read the thread
>I refuse to take responsibility for these things>But these other things, yeah I'm really proud of them And I still don't get why you're projecting your own hurt feelings onto me. If you make incorrect claims and have them corrected, don't scream and bitch about the person who corrected you talking about "ethnic feels" because that's not what's happening at all.
You shouldn't be proud of your culture if you haven't done shit or contributed at all IMO.
No. 20077
>>20075What someones ancestors did has nothing to do with someone who wasn't alive when it happened. You were not there and you take no credit for it.
Culture, on the other hand, is something that someone is born and raised with their whole lives and it's a big part of who they are as a person. See how that works? You're just butthurt that people you don't like aren't being cucks and apologizing for existing.
No. 20078
>>20072>Now, despite all this, African countries have great pride in their respective heritage and culture. And…? This pride hasn't helped them very much, especially when you take into account the amount of African people who are extremely racist and xenophobic towards outsiders (which can range from simply being Senegalese and living in Ghana to being British in Nigeria).
>Most African fashion designers don't take inspiration from the West but do their own thing and create unique, original designs. Many people are proud of them.To be honest, there's not much unique about most African designs when it comes to fashion. Just because it's not necessarily the same aesthetic as European or Asian stuff doesn't make it especially innovative or new.
Additionally, at least in those cases the designers are doing something for their culture by representing them in the fashion world. What is the random guy from the very tip of the nation who believes that women are below men and homosexuality should be punishable by death doing for Africa? Absolutely nothing, and he doesn't have very much to be proud of.
>Why shouldn't white people be proud of their own culture and heritage? Re-read my first post. If you haven't done anything or brought anything to the table, you literally have nothing to be proud of. You were simply born. Don't ride off others' coattails.

Culture=Existing today
Ancestors=Dead
Culture is created by society. I do not have connections to what my culture was a hundred years ago, it's not my culture. I have connections to what my culture is now because I live it every day. I don't have connections to my ancestors because they no longer exist.

You're saying culture shouldn't be cherished then that would mean any and even your culture shouldn't be either under your same arguments. Nobody is innocent any and every culture has done some shit only you seem to blame western because its easier to and just about everything is westernized.
All it seems you're actually pushing is the same rhetorical argument and points because you feel that pride in who they are and their culture is a sin and Anon must repent by denying their own pride because of something out of their control and so they must feel bad about it or else they will burn in internal bigotry.

You're literally shoving words into my mouth at this point.
>You didn't but you're acting like they HAVE to be ashamed over something they can't change.If you're going to be happy about one aspect, you need to accept the not-so-glamorous rest of it, too.

I also don't give a shit about "cherishing cultures" if you yourself haven't even done anything, as I've said over and over.

>All it seems you're actually pushing is the same rhetorical argument and points because you feel that pride in who they are and their culture is a sinIt's simply hypocritical and retarded to only acknowledge and raise up one element of one's own culture in the name of glorifying it, and gloss over the bad things with "Y-Yeah well that wasn't me".

Do not take pride if you can't even acknowledge the whole thing, that's just counter-productive, fake and autismal.

I'm not the one lecturing anons up and down about muh cultural guilt and going into detail about "facts" disguised as opinion as if you can't be proud while acknowledging what has been done.

Ironically enough, you accuse me of using buzzwords but all you've done so far is repeat "Tumblr" and "white guilt". You haven't proven a single thing I've said ITT wrong.

But again, you're repeating the same rhetoric again and again because that hasn't been done before, like ever.
ITT was about shallowness in the Eastern culture, not Western, as if Western is the only culture in the world.
So you're latching onto b8 about Western culture while ignoring Eastern culture, as if Western Culture hasn't been criticized before and anons who who are Western should feel ashamed for taking pride in their Western heritage as if they're wearing blinders

There is no need to constantly repeat about being ashamed of your culture/heritage/race/ancestors since you do not know the anons race, heritage, etc because there is no need to state ones race on an Anonymous board
