Just so we are clear, having a work ethic is a white people thing. I’m just repeating the chart.

Why are black people not outraged?

There are behaviors that are objectively better than other behaviors.

But cultural relativism teaches us that there is no better or worse, only different. And it's bullshite.

that's why "privilege" is such a dangerous topic

sometimes it's legitimate (like if it's an inherent trait) but often it's just flipping around a better behavior/cultural trait into a negative thing. so instead of saying "nuclear families are preferred due to their outcome" it's not "nuclear family privilege is a problem and we need to have a conversation"

Seems like a pretty good checklist for success in general.

I’m so confused. The AA museum is now telling me what he’s like to be white?


It's so there can be reference point for people who try to insult others by telling them they're "acting white."

Sounds like those honkies knew what they were doing.


Wonder where all that got them?

ETA: these things are the hallmarks of successful people of any race. And white people that don’t adhere to these are usually less successful.

So, anything of virtue/value


You only view it as valuable and a virtue because you're white. (That's the argument)

I think their point is that these are all good things because we live in a white society and white society established all of these as good things without considering if other ways were better...

...I think thats the point

maybe

I'm trying

The National Museum of African American History & Culture be like "Wypipo be like...".
