oh yes
It seems that our political elites today in their respective arenas continue this rich tradition of democracy
Mfw I just realized that
oh yes our fantastic political elites
@shlizzy do you think they deserve their seats of entrenched partisanal power
not sure if there's anyone alive who deserves that kind of power, but i could be wrong
@shlizzy bravo
@Reeves !Musicbot all those studies focus on small scale. Anything larger than a small community the who argument falls apart as no one has trust in a large city even with homogeneous race but I don't know why you'd want to live in a world without other cultures it's part of what makes society great is our ability to go explore different cultures without having to go to a different country for example I can drive 5 minutes and eat amazing homemade Japanese ramen or Vietnamese pho or Korean BBQ or soul food or real fuckin Mexican food not that Tex Mex bullshit.
i dont want to live in a world without other cultures
i want to live in a country without other cultures
cities are shit and id never live in one regardless of racial demographics
i wouldnt say a large scale makes the argument fall apart, these small communities make up most of every country
even cities are mostly just a lot of small communities in a much closer proximity
You aren't American are you?
When I say big city I don't necessarily mean dense
no but i lived there for a while
My city is over half my state it's got wide limits but there's no trust here not even among whites
Anyone that trusts other people especially for their skin color is naive
i am not saying that you should trust a person just because they are white
Pffff
my country is plagued with gopniks
im saying that a racially homogeneous society helps foster trust in neighbors and community
And I'm saying it shouldn't
And wouldn't for me
but it statistically does
Only in small groups
regardless of whether it should or shouldnt
The study's you listed only studyies small scale and they found the effect dropped off 80% when scaled up
cities have always brought out the worst of men
im not trying to tell you a 100% white city would be a nice place
because cities are shit
A 100% white city is not possible
Also you just made a fallacy of composition here a 100% white city would be a pile of trailer trash
what?
People like like that cash me outside girl
That's what the south is
i dont understand exactly what you are trying to say, but from my experiences in america there is a fairly even distribution of white garbage people
Not here in Virginia
From about Maryland south you get more garbage people that usual
