do you have argument? no? didn't think so
yeah i do. i'm thinking
ok
take your time
The difference between a black guy and a white guy is the same as the difference between someone who has green eyes and someone who has brown ?
a nation is made up of biologically similar peoples,
race is biological
to equate a somali and a european is ridiculous, they are completely different
its ridiculous to say that the interests of the somali and the european are the same
both have different needs, different practices of doing things
do you really think that a nation is more strengthened if a foreign element which is against the values etc which resides in the host country?
I share very little in common with a Finnish national socialist, fascist or anarcho-capitalist. I share, however, probably quite a bit in common with a Somali person who seeks communism is this not true? And what different needs does a Somali person have from me? Does he not eat, does he not sleep, does he not need to form a family, gain offspring? Does he lack need for humour, love, friendship? What is the *foundational distinction* between a Somali communist and myself, especially if both converse in English?
Not much.
Values, furthermore, change radically. The values in Kingdom of Prussia in 1800s don't quite coincide with the values in City of Berlin in 2015, or do they? Are "values" too immutable?
@Bee hitler agrees
A nation is made up of culturally similar people more often than biologically similar people.
@Just a weirdo is that a compliment
@Kazimir Malevich it's both bio and cultural
Also Finns are sharply divided along Eastern and Western subgroups, yet we get along perfectly fine
literally are of different genetic stock
yes, because they share brother heritage and culture
in very real sense
or
euros or asians
so perhaps the emergence of world culture, as a result of globalisation, will likewise bring together different "race" groups?
worked for Finns, didn't it?
finns are still european, white
globalism is lack of culture.
Differences between Eastern and Western Finns literally exceed those of Eastern and Western Europeans
consumerism, if the capitalists win
implying that global culture need to be capitalist or consumerist
ha!
silly
Culture triumphs above race. I will have more in common with a russophile Somali than with a self-hating Slav.
>admits that he's riding the wagon of the bourgeois to instate communism
@Bee indeed they are - same can be applied to any group then, considering they are literally of different racial stock
are they really
i don't think so

gets it
like a bwass
@Xinyue It's hard to imagine a global culture that isn't reduced to the lowest common denominator.
I have much more in common with a Somali Marxist than a Finnish fascist
@Xinyue you'll relate to one commie somali, but will you relate to 1 million somalis, and will you invite them into the country?
@Bee This is the point people miss. There are not a lot of foreigners culturally aligned with a particular country, so not a lot of immigrants that will be accepted.
Who said anything about inviting anyone? What is this misrepresentation? I used this argument to demolish the importance of race as the be-all-end-all political orientation
it isn't
