You missed the point.

2018-02-27 07:46:15 UTC  

What's your point?

2018-02-27 07:47:08 UTC  

That the penguin developed the way it did because of it's environment

2018-02-27 07:47:25 UTC  

because of it's peer species and it's predators.

2018-02-27 07:47:50 UTC  

and that happens on a localized scale

2018-02-27 07:47:52 UTC  

Yes

2018-02-27 07:47:56 UTC  

the white corner of the world

2018-02-27 07:47:59 UTC  

developed the western system

2018-02-27 07:48:05 UTC  

under Christianity

2018-02-27 07:48:13 UTC  

the common thread through almost all of it.

2018-02-27 07:48:41 UTC  

If you wanna talk about shit that united the West, it was the damned church.

2018-02-27 07:49:44 UTC  

It wasn't whiteness, it was the culture that prevailed in christianity.

2018-02-27 07:50:01 UTC  

which didn't take root elsewhere in the world.

2018-02-27 07:50:08 UTC  

I think it's a bit of both. If it's environment then why didn't Jamaica, Bahamas and other countries which were European colonies that have European ideas and froms of goverment and culture be dominate untile they got their indepdance and then became africanized becase they were areas that were run by blacks and populated with blacks.

2018-02-27 07:51:26 UTC  

If it's Christianity then why aren't black countires with majorty christian populations western?

2018-02-27 07:52:23 UTC

2018-02-27 07:52:37 UTC  

You're looking past the argument to say 'what about this'.

2018-02-27 07:52:49 UTC  

That's not a rebuttal of my point.

2018-02-27 07:53:24 UTC  

Becase it disproves your point that western countires are only that way becasue of christianity when they clearly aren't.

2018-02-27 07:53:50 UTC  

lol

2018-02-27 07:54:45 UTC  

They didn't have the same European cultural exchange.

2018-02-27 07:55:14 UTC  

They were colonised by Europeans who built africa.

2018-02-27 07:56:08 UTC  

Colonization does NOT imply cooperation with the subjugated people.

2018-02-27 07:56:28 UTC  

Before Europeans arived africans didn't even have the wheel, a writen language, a court system, books, ect.

2018-02-27 07:57:23 UTC  

Who made the africans Chritians? Whites did. Who though them European languages? Whites did.

2018-02-27 07:57:38 UTC  

And?

2018-02-27 07:58:11 UTC  

Those are exsamples of how Europeans forced western culutre on africans.

2018-02-27 07:58:52 UTC  

If the Muslims enforced Sharia Law in Australia tomorrow, forced you to learn their language and convert to their religion (implying you couldn't escape), would you suddenly be cool with Islam?

2018-02-27 07:59:14 UTC  

As far as European presence in Africa goes

2018-02-27 07:59:22 UTC  

It WAS actually oppressive.

2018-02-27 07:59:43 UTC  

No. Are you saying western culutre is foreign to blacks?

2018-02-27 08:00:02 UTC  

Native africans, yes.

2018-02-27 08:00:23 UTC  

Those who grew up generations in western culture, not quite so much.

2018-02-27 08:01:06 UTC  

But when the Europeans left they just when back to african culutre. it's becase it's natural to them.

2018-02-27 08:01:22 UTC  

It's because the Europeans were oppressors.

2018-02-27 08:01:38 UTC  

You don't think they were to Americans?

2018-02-27 08:01:54 UTC  

clarify.

2018-02-27 08:02:45 UTC  

The Migrant Crisis in Europe is damn near the inverse of European colonization.
