BLM protest over "cultural appropriation" at Yoga Studio

lol... it's on topic. I dispute your ethnic cultural idea's. Right wingers claim this often enough from people from the middle east that there is such a thing. And now, it's flip flop.

 

Yet I've never said anything negative as a whole about "people from the Middle East" or anywhere. I'm more humanist than "Right Winger". In fact, most of the people who you are seeking to attack consider me a LWer. So I hope you can see why are I think your condemnation of me is both defamatory and fallacious.

 

You go tell the entire right wing who claims that, and the entire left wing who claim there is such a thing as culturally appropriated. lol

 

I have. Why are you disagreeing with me?

 

It's called assimilation which is the point of unity. Our society does not become strong because of diversity. Our society becomes strong because of unity.

 

Partially correct. We become stronger by taking the best from everything and unifying it into a whole. The proverbial "melting pot". We become weak by segregating ourselves or only mating with our brothers, sisters and first cousins.

 

The US becomes strong by unifying under the Constitution. Immigrants support strength by assimilating to those values. The US does not become stronger by tolerating diversity which conflicts with the Constitution.

 

Agreed.

 

1) what 'whole'? whose 'whole'? you're premising this on a vacuum.

2) 'unifying' ... your words. and this is the key. if disparate groups and peoples do not 'unify', there is no peace.

3) try telling that to those groups who refuse to mate with the 'natives'. they are the ones resisting unity, not the hosts who invited them in on the assumption that all are as colourblind as they themselves are.

 

American history isn't a "vacuum".

Agreed. If there is not general assimilation, then there will be conflict.

It's the majority that counts; there will always be racist, asshats and others who don't want to "mix". We still have whites who think blacks are inferior, look down upon mixed dating and march for "white pride" just as we have blacks who think the same thing. Still, it's the majority that counts, not a few loudmouths.

 

Because you claim about the entire world's opinion about culture is wrong, just because it fits your agenda.

 

Totally irrelevant.
My point is that a society claims to have a culture. Like the west claims to have a different one compared to the middle east. And in a similar way, Afro Americans claim rap music and it has nothing to do with yoga which comes from India.

 

Where does my opinion of culture differ from "the entire world's opinion"? Are you sure you aren't just projecting? What do you believe my "agenda" to be?

 

Louis Farrakhan would be proud...

 

Read some Robert Putnam.

 

You do not have a claim on something someone else created just because that person who looks like you.

These ass clowns that want be racist and say people of other races can't listen to the music created by someone who's black because they're black and they think they own it are just idiots.

 

I can't believe the left likes that guy. He is an extreme bigot anti-Semitic and profoundly homophobic. He is what they say Donald Trump is.

 

I don't get it, either. He's one of the most vile creatures on the planet...

 

He’s a bigot but he’s their bigot.

 

I saw through the whiny bitches from day one. They're not intelligent enough to form an organized coalition. They had most of the country fooled but couldn't handle it long. They're too angry and bitter.

 

Yeah, but watch them get offended if you call them Africans...

 

There's nothing African about hipper hoppers and rappers.

 

I figured you were just being sarcastic. There are most definitely white Africans that migrated here and became real African Americans. Blacks born here aren't African, they're just American.

Hard working white African farmers being forced off of their lands... I would welcome them here with open arms.
