I hope we have done enough

2018-05-20 19:52:40 UTC

Not soon enough

but I wasn't dumb enough to say

2018-05-20 19:53:25 UTC

Heโ€™s still alive

I wanted Florida to flip

Hmmmm

2018-05-21 01:55:46 UTC

https://voiceofeurope.com/2018/05/viktor-orban-successfully-removes-soross-open-society-foundations-from-hungary/ I hope Trump does the same in America. Letโ€™s keep our fingers crossed for that.

The new look of white identity politics? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4xP9TjNj9C8

2018-05-21 09:34:37 UTC

6:40 is where it starts to get really icky.

2018-05-21 09:35:54 UTC

She makes the argument that whites are the most virtuous and says that she prefers identity groups stay apart.

2018-05-21 09:37:55 UTC

I thinkher notion of seperation as a way to remedy race relations, by disassociation from 'the scourge of the oppresssed', is misguided.

2018-05-21 09:38:15 UTC

Surprised about that like/dislike ratio.

2018-05-21 09:56:45 UTC

The more diverse America gets, the further into the toilet it goes... and at this point, flush it down."

Except simply saying "America is in the toilet" isn't at all charitable, it's actually wrong.

2018-05-21 09:57:07 UTC

Syria is in the toilet, that's a bit more fair to say.

2018-05-21 09:57:17 UTC

Venezuela is in the shitter.

2018-05-21 09:57:31 UTC

I think the premise that race is the major factor in division and unrest in the US is false, even though I think she has a point about the government forcing people together through quotas etc. I don't think dividing the US into different racial zones will solve anything, in fact it will probably makes things worse unless the underlying problems such as the welfare state and breakdown of family/community are resolved first. But even if it worked, I wouldn't want to be excluded from being able to move to a different area of the country. Luckily, these kinds of people aren't getting anywhere.

2018-05-21 09:57:45 UTC

^ very good first point

2018-05-21 09:58:18 UTC

Haidt wrote an essay talking about how race is a much less common reason for someone to be prejudiced than politics.

2018-05-21 10:00:13 UTC

But also, like I said this video has a near 100% like/dislike ratio which means either it's being seen by a very select bubble because of youtube algorithms or the opinion that races should self-segregate is surprisingly popular.

2018-05-21 10:00:45 UTC

What's tricky too is that she *is* right about a lot of things.

2018-05-21 10:01:04 UTC

It's really her conclusions on what to do about it that I take serious issue with.

2018-05-21 10:09:42 UTC

I think that people who see race as the big issue are more likely to think in terms of segregation, but I think that is a small group at the moment, even though I do think it has been growing due to certain people stoking the flames. hopefully it will die down eventually. And I think your last point sums up my feeling as well, and I think it's true of most identitarians. They see a certain problem, attribute it entirely to the "other", and come up with solutions that would divorce themselves from the perceived problem group.

2018-05-21 10:12:25 UTC

There may be some truth to it though, especially in terms of Islam, but that is a cultural divide, not necessarily racial.

2018-05-21 10:15:04 UTC

the idea that if we had only white people then the problems would just go away, is pretty naive.

2018-05-21 10:16:48 UTC

sorry to break it to anyone who thinks otherwise, but segments of the white population are just as fucked up as any other group, and that has more to do with culture than anything else.

2018-05-21 11:54:33 UTC

Got called a Eurocentrist for using the Term Middle East

2018-05-21 16:40:51 UTC

Is this the same psychopath who has some sort of grandiose structure constructed to celebrate their nation's lack of interest in taking sides in anything?

2018-05-21 16:41:40 UTC

Maybe that was Turkmenistan

```Niyazov banned the use of lip syncing at public concerts in 2005 as well as sound recordings at "musical performances on state holidays, in broadcasts by Turkmen television channels, at all cultural events organized by the state... in places of mass assembly and at weddings and celebrations organised by the public," citing a negative effect on the development of musical arts incurred by the use of recorded music.

Niyazov banished dogs from the capital Ashgabat because of their "unappealing odour."

According to the Ashgabat correspondent of Turkmenistan.ru, right-hand-drive imported cars converted to left-hand-drive were banned due to a perceived increased risk in accidents.

Niyazov requested that a "palace of ice", or indoor ice skating rink, be built near the capital, so that those living in the desert country could learn to skate. The rink was built in 2008 and is located near the new Turkmen State Medical University.

After having to quit smoking in 1997 due to his resultant heart surgery, he banned smoking in all public places and ordered all government employees to follow suit. Chewing tobacco on Turkmen soil was later banned as well.

He outlawed opera, ballet and circuses in 2001 for being "decidedly unturkmen-like".

In February 2004, he decreed that men should no longer wear long hair or beards.

He banned news reporters and anchors from wearing make-up on television, because he said he found it difficult to distinguish male anchors from female anchors.

Gold teeth were discouraged in Turkmenistan after Niyazov suggested that the populace chew on bones to strengthen their teeth and lessen the rate at which they fall out```

```The agreement included 17 submarines, a cruiser, a frigate and a destroyer, which were sold to a Swedish company for scrap recycling. Those 17 submarines made Pepsi become, for a few days, the 6th largest military power in the world by number of diesel submarines. The president of Pepsi, Donald Kendall, told the National Security Adviser of USA: "We are disarming the USSR faster than you".```
