I find it hilarious because it's like going up to a commie and trying to deradicalize him by being like, "dude I get it, I think the government should build roads too"

This used to be diversity studies...now it's all feelings.

Muh calipers.

Soft science in college is a shame.

It seems a large amount of degrees force these types of studies on to students. 😡

I was relaxing, getting ready to go to bed about 45 min ago,until i hear the idiots behind us in the alley... was hard to tell sounded like caps or light firecrackers? Maybe even a 22 cap? Dogs were going nuts,called it in for a change since haven't done all the other regular shots in awhile,pretty bad when I've become used to hearing it more so... i don't know this just annoyed me,couldn't figure out if it was a capgun or what...finally relaxing a lil better but jeez this is ridiculous....

Annoyed

@NateDahl76 The eternal danger of fake stats.

Probably originated by people who don't like us, hoping we'll use it and make ourselves look like fools.

True that

Knew that had to be fake when I saw Israel was green.

I like my new profile pic

Just lol

About that “woke” white woman above. I find that women typically conform to their surrounding peers. Women will also completely flip script if in a relationship with a strong male, reflecting completely his beliefs. I think this was a survival mechanism andantes long ago. We don’t have to worry about changing the minds of women so much, change the minds of men and they will follow.

adapted* damned spell check

Very powerful ad from an upstart watch company https://youtu.be/x_HL0wiK4Zc

Egard Watches is moving in the right direction. Much better than Gillette. Still, I couldn't help but notice how they emphasized black men, but black men rarely exhibit manly virtue.

Yes, but let's not make the good the enemy of the perfect

@Nemets You can always tell when people have an agenda as compared to having actual discussion about issues, I hope people wake up to this.

Oh look another non white person advocating for wholesale settlement of America

I want to get an opinion from everyone. Do you think those of European decent should carve out a place of their own and stay separated? Much of the world has benefited from colonialism, in the long run. Do you think there should be another wave of colonialism (not just military bases everywhere like the current system, but actual colonies like in SA)?

Can I advocate for both? (not that I am....)

I’ll accept the egard cucking for blacks as long as they don’t hate whites. They’re misunderstanding of reality is less important than the actual putting down of men and white men specifically

Colonialism has pretty well backfired on us in a number of ways. If you're going to conquer a place, *conquer* it, don't try to make nice.

Colonialism is a waste of effort unless the land you're already on really and truly just can't sustain you anymore. All these big empires end up the same way. Everyone should leave others alone and be left alone.

A nation should honestly be able to sustain itself in all its needs, and not require other people's goods to become powerful. Plenty of good examples in history where a wise nation over-powered a greedy empire.

Civilization has to be scaled back then, self sufficiency is impossible with how we live anymore.

In the west anyway.

Colonies are also very expensive to maintain, it often costs more to administer a colony (espsecially ones with large aboriginal inhahibitants) than the colony produces in revenue. With some execptions.

All in all I don't think colonies are worth the effort, most of the time.

@Virgil This. Colonies made a few people very rich, like the case of the British East India Company, but they were a net loss.

The real question we should ask is how have we benefitted from colonialism as opposed to how the rest of the world have benefitted. I think it's debatable how much Europeans actually benefitted from colonialism, outside of the places that we settled directly.

@unclefesterr Very true, India itself is a good example, while the colony was enormously profitable it was also enormously expensive to maintain, especially after the British government took over direct administration of India.

Consider how many colonies are still held and maintained by their original colonizing nation. Should speak to colonialisms long term sustainability.

I am still bitter towards the Conquistadors for saddling us with the mestizo menace.
