Dang I thought this thread was going to be just a bunch of Liberal/Democratic ranting, but I was pleasantly surprised

Honestly, watching that video is causing me to believe that non-whites throw the word racist and racism around as a social weapon in order to get their way because some white people fear that word.

white south africans, british
Boers are Danish...

Honestly, I'm convinced. Social progressives are idiots who have historically ignorant educations.

@m0nst3r
No, its just the overly social progressive types seem to love labelling anyone but themselves with blanket terms while disregarding the fact that not all whites are British...

Is it easier to use?
...not really. When its being used to differentiate between Hispanic and non-Hispanic it just seems like weirdly peculiar pedanticism chosen to hide the speaker/author's racism.

edit: apparently I can't spell or use English

@wowfucktron Somehow I wish we were back during the days these idiots were screaming on Tumblr and thinking that raiding /b/ was something people could do.
God the memes were fantastic back then.

But also its kinda hilarious that Latinos are complaining about white people when technically you can make the argument they're just a really large group of white people themselves.

There's this movement in Central and South America called Reconquista.
Its basically young Latinos wanting to "colonize their colonizers," ie. soft-colonize the US.
There's a reason to actually take this seriously because the US will bend over backwards to defend them.

Ironic since most of them are either Spanish African mutts or Spanish Indigenous mutts and are really disconnected from their ancestors.

Tumblr and thinking that raiding /b/ was something people could do.
Tumblr banning porn unironically changed the world.
All of the Tumblrinas left Tumblr and went to Twitter where their shit could be seen by civilised society.
The exodus caused American politics to re-embrace identity politics.

Words cannot describe how hilarious it is that a bunch of colonizers are saying shit like this. Also I almost feel like now the CIA needs to have a few more Pinochets get put back into power.

In actuality though I would say that the porn ban on Tumblr was just moving up what was already happening in Twitter when it came to identity politics. Its way easier to blame bad things in your life on other people rather than acknowledging personal faults. Twitter jouros being unable to handle any counter banter is proof of that.

France, despite being French, was right when they said that American wokeism is a threat to democracy. I can only hope that they propose making a new type of Economic cooperation system that excludes American Companies to help keep it siloed off.

To be fair, there is a lot of liberal ranting.

From me. About how illiberal and authoritarian the Democrats have become.

I’m a Jimi Hendrix style individualist with populist leanings in favor of unrestricted freedom of expression and limited power from corporations and the government. The dems literally aren’t giving me any of that.

I didn’t support Trump until all the stuff about the election came out and I reflected on his policies for the last year as opposed to how he was treated, and came to the conclusion that he’s more likely to cause the liberal change I want than anyone else in politics is.

You know I think gun owner ship shouldn’t be allowed by civilians. This is both a mix of the rim world play in me knowing the huge step up any gun is from melee weapons and me as a person not liking people own lethal and easy to use weapons. Also @tamerlane I’m gonna have to almost agree he was like a horrible abomination of a liberal and conservative. Anti Lincoln would be the best term. Ironically enough he was both the most radical conservative and liberal at the same time we’ll probably see for a very long time. At least in talk

I do wonder though, with Scandinavian countries' culture/legal/prison system; if they made it legal to bear arms and had the castle law would the crime rates increase substantially.

And in reverse America no longer had those laws would the crime rate similarly be adjusted within 3 years? Or would only very low percentage of the Scandanavians hobbyists enjoy the new freedom and a high percentage of Americans smuggle and conceal their weapons.

@Teddy The latter without a doubt.
With how many guns are having components able to be replaced by 3D printers and the fact that you can get everything you need to make a gun at a Home Depot there really isn't an option to just ban guns.

Yeah I'm just not going to touch that statement. The fact that you went with that tells me there's nothing to be gained from discussing it.

I was recently reminded that the third anniversary of my fav news article of all time is drawing closer.

Yes, Achilles in Troy: Fall of a City is black, and yes it's a big deal
>It's what Homer would have wanted
>many other black roles in the series, including Hakeem Kae-Kazim as the god Zeus
>"Homer in the Iliad repeatedly describes Achilles as 'blonde' and 'golden-haired'," whined one definite non-racist
>Is it impossible to conceive of a black Greek man?
>'blonde' and 'golden-haired'
>It's what Homer would have wanted
Are you on the right side of history, anon?

I take umbrage at the phrase “Anti Lincoln” because Abraham Lincoln is one of my heroes, and I’m a pure blooded Yankee at heart. There’s a reason I post Sherman memes whenever I see the Confederate Flag.

Also, I think banning gun ownership is a really bad idea because it is the duty of a well armed population to keep the government and bourgeois in check. Plus prohibition historically doesn’t really work very well because it doesn’t change the demand for the product or remove the weapons in circulation. (Hence why a lot of gun violence occurs in areas that have gun control legislation like Chicago, which indicates that it doesn’t really affect criminals all too much.)

Other than that, Enlightened Centrism my dude. The truth doesn’t fall along partisan lines.

@Bigtiddyoneesan

The worst part about that is they could have told the story of Memnon, who was Ethiopian in Greek Mythology, instead of race bending existing characters.

Because fuck accuracy to the source material

@EOTFOFYL

I think part of the issue is less fetishization and more lack of education. The people really into firearms really don’t tend to be the ones to commit crimes because they respect how dangerous the weapons are. It’s people who don’t have experience or knowledge that idolize them.

Honestly, SJWs fetishize black people so much. It’s disgusting because black people will take advantage of it until they can’t.

Then you have this “right side of history” nonsense.
How can you be on the right side of history when history is written retrospectively...sounds awfully propagandist, like a communist agenda and how they erode cultures for a new governments...
>constantly complains about not having a culture
>lives in the US,
assimilate like everyone else or shut the fuck up
>noooooo not that culture,
muh ancestors and shit
>steals other civilizations cultures out of insecurity
>uses ambiguity as a reason to blackwash things
>then complains about others “appropriating” multicultural shit like dreads or shitty English
I’m going to be honest, black people are making themselves hard to like when they do stuff like this.

@Tamerlane Enlightened centrism? Yeah no I don’t want to associated with those kinds of people. Honestly I just hate both the current Republican Party and democrat party. I only support one sides idea’s in the first place.

As for the whole gun thing yeah. Better idea slowly transition american culture to less gun toting madmen to peace keepers? I’d say it would help torwards getting rid of guns in general. Or maybe we could do back ground checks at all and make it harder in general to get a gun in general?

in a world where many people see totalitarianism on the rise you want guns to be taken from the people? your out of your mind. Venezuelans are probably wishing they had guns right about now.

outside of the 'you have a gun and thats scary *cries*' the UK is an island and have very little guns an what do they have? an enormous stab rate. they are looking into knife control. an island is the best case scenario for gun control and they are only growing the amount of things to control. no i will not allow my rights to be infringed

My one statement on guns that usually makes people mad is; Explain to me why you have the right to tell me what I can and can't do to protect myself if you aren't affected.

Obviously there are some common sense barriers to that. I can't fill my doors with Tanerite to prevent someone from breaking in, and I can't pre-emptively shoot people because they 'may be a threat' but that goes for everyone.

The fact is, trying to limit or ban guns is the same busy body Karen nonsense that Prohibition and the War on Drugs.

Stalin had a quote about gun control. Too lazy to fetch it, go look it up yourself.

He advocated for it because he realized neutering counter revolutionaries was vital to his stability.

You could see this as:
The feds know an armed populace is harder to control and fuck over.

Or, there’s something afoul among the anti gun crowd and activists.

Like how they know what agendas they’re pushing subtly and are afraid of fellow citizens defending themselves from a self destructive form of government being instated by politicians and moronic activists who are no more than corporate puppets.
Please don’t use violence for anything other than self-defense after two attempts at defusing a situation.

The whole point of having an armed populace is a form of leverage for a citizenry to remind its government exactly who it serves.

Rulers don’t appreciate being lynched and will usually appease a populace to avoid it.

Like how their politics are usually nothing more than naive idealism and if you press them on any of their issues they immediately panic and try to change the subject because they are only repeating things they’ve heard from “approved personalities.”

As if there’s nothing but change for change’s sake. A feel good feeling of believing you’re part of something bigger than yourself. A ragtag band of losers proving the crabs in a bucket metaphor that is leftism.

Anyways, if you’re anti cop and anti gun, do you really think social workers are just going to Talk no Jutsu their way through criminals and crises?

Do you really think people should stand there and let someone stab/shoot them to death? They can’t run if their wounded, and most people go into fright when they don’t have any options.

How do you stop someone who illegally acquired a gun? They obviously don’t have good intentions and aren’t going to stop to JoJo pose and Nani?!?? the entire time.

Here’s your solution: use more gun.
MAD doctrine works, apply it to civilians.
Learn how to use, clean, re/disassemble and secure a gun. It just might save you one day.

Be prepared is my motto.
