There are those that do want to be in all white communities, we call them the Aryan Nation, and those folks are just plain ignorant and I wouldn't want to live with Aryans, though I had one across the street growing up. He blew his brains out one day.

It doesn't help the situation when you call anyone who doesn't agree with you or think like you a white supremacist.

I agree with much of your premise, but we have to recognize that whatever comes out will be completely different from what goes in.

Of course, the people of future generations won't know anything else, and that will simply become their normal.


Is that want you want? To throw the whole world into a bag and shake it up? Why is that better? So we can eventually all live together under a single government spanning the entire world?
It’s called the melting pot and it has nothing to do with one world government.

I think his "point" is expressed in the words "I rarely see "......meaning that HE rarely sees it. Dollars to Donuts he "sees and hears and reads" many things on the interweb, radio and TV.

He doesn't say it doesn't exist or that it isn't good and true. All he is saying is that he somehow fixated in his head and his experiences that white is right and might.

If the whole world was a melting-pot, why would borders exist? What do borders represent? Why does America even exist? How did we get all of this land?

The mass-immigration which created the need for the melting pot, was merely an early form of globalism. In fact, America created globalism and now whines about it.


Immigration on any scale necessarily creates the conditions which lead to globalism. The only way to stop globalism is to stop immigration.

And quite honestly, the only way to stop globalism is to get rid of capitalism. Capitalism is globalism, and it requires mass-immigration.

America hates what it created. America created the diversity that it now loathes.
Blacks call themselves Africans, they are proud to be black, they have their own history month. If I were to celebrate White history, I'd be labeled as a Hate Group.

I don't feel it's America doing this to the black population so much as it is the blacks doing it to themselves by voting for people who are putting labels on them and lumping them into groups.

I don't notice black and white, more like personality. That's what I look for in friends. And how big their heart is. That's what's important to me.

Thank you for the well thought out, articulate reply.


It is similar to the scene in "My Cousin Vinny" where Joe Pesci delivers his rebuttal to the prosecuting attorney by saying, "Everything that guy said is bull*hit".

Black people had to create things for "blacks" because whites would not give them a fair opportunity among whites. That was my point all along. Diversity was created as a consequence of racism. When people were denied...they created their own. Now America does not want to lay in the bed of diversity it made.


Besides....blacks call themselves "African American"....not "African".

, and those folks are just plain ignorant and I wouldn't want to live with Aryans, though I had one across the street growing up. He blew his brains out one day.

I do feel that parents will move to be in better schools, this is a desire that is almost primal as mothers will always want what's best for their kids, whether it's a perception thing or not.

We have a wonderful school here called Wando, it's a very successful school that is basically like a college campus. Lots of curriculum and art programs, thriving sports, bands, etc...

People have started to look at magnet schools and Schools of the Arts because they feel it's somehow better for their kids than Wando.

This will always be the case, people will do crazy things for their kids.

To me it's just perception and good sales tactics.
That is kind of creepy. What if your current neighbors moved and all white people moved in. To me people are just people so I would not label a white neighborhood as nazis or a black one as radicals either. Very strange and scary mindset you have there.

What does diversity do for my personal life? It allows me to feel evolved, enlightened, smug, and morally superior.

I find your world view quite myopic. Civilizations that are productive and homogeneous yet open to regimentation tend to look at other cultures as inferior. When you combine that with the fact that we are vicious bastards to begin with you find cultures that are willing to exterminate.



In America we are encouraged by the corporate media to look down upon other groups because that distracts us from the real enemy, the very wealthy.
