It’s an interesting topic, because it’s like to some extent it can be a good thing and too much can be a bad thing
I kinda see it as unambiguously bad, and I think it hurts us more than anyone else, because ours is the world's most appropriated (though paradoxically also the most appropriat*ing*) culture. I think our interactions would be a lot richer, more meaningful, and ultimately more respectful if we were all more authentic.
That’s my main thought. It think it gets grey when you go beyond pop culture and apply it to things like western medicine replacing traditional
If our culture is for everybody, it’s for nobody.
Our culture is not even our culture. We just adopted it first, but it does not identify us either
So ya, this is where I've been working (and the surrounding cities: Cape San Blas, Port St. Joe, Panama City, etc) since in the hurricane hit. I'm surprised any media outlet did a story on it today. The level of untold damage and destruction is really beyond comprehension without seeing it firsthand. Katrina was nothing in comparison, yet this hurricane received very little media and Congressional attention because...well...we're picking up the pieces and trying to get everything back to normal without begging the government to come HALP US!

But in terms of travel and social culture, when I travel somewhere I want to experience their culture. And come home to my culture
Exactly.
I dont know if this has been reported yet, but Jared Taylor's book, White Identity, was just taken off Amazon. My brother went to buy it this morning and its gone.
It’s an effect of globalism. And, unfortunately, just like with many other things, we just “did it best”
I am very against it. Keep other countries the way they are and have them develop on their own. People and cultures are unique and beautiful
That's part of that ethnopluralism is.
Sorry to interrupt.
If we hadn’t done the whole globalism thing somebody else would’ve done it first and everybody would have Chinese culture or whatnot. I think it was inevitable but it can be undone just like anything else.
I am surprised there is a Varg emoji
@Bogl - CA You can still buy it through AmRen, I think.
@Bogl - CA Sucks, but I'm not surprised. They took Greg John's *White Nationalist Manifesto* down a couple of days ago, too.
@Winston-CA Don't be. There are of lots of pretty out-there emojis, lol.
<:really:453005408064241674>
Amren's store is down as well.
Now *that* is eyebrow-raising...
Well that book is about to get expensive
Mhmm.
@DixieBoy76 - KY it just requires a compartmentalized worldwide cultural renaissance.
I have this book list I was going to buy this summer, but I might have get what I can before they all get banned.
I buy books then never finish them
@Drover Tom Actually, that makes sense. I'm pretty sure AmRen's store just routed to Amazon, anyway. They're probably gonna have to set up something in-house now.
And these are none on ebay.
It's like it disappeared.
Well, Johnson fulfills his own orders. Hopefully, he can show Mr. Taylor the ropes.
Has any one read Greg Johns book?
Not yet, but I want to.
Buy direct. Like how Dr. DD sells his books
Yeah, I try to buy direct. Gives the authors a bigger cut, and you don't have to fund Bezos.
Exactly
I’m listening to Dutch folk songs
Lol
If Patrick sent me a book that got here Tuesday when I placed the order last Thursday, I think Jared can get it figured out and have a bearable shipping time.
I've been listening to that ByteMapper album that V.Balboa posted on Slack earlier (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xUA09ctpznM). Pretty good stuff. Kinda reminds me of Kraftwerk.
