How is it possible for a "National" museum to display the flag incorrectly; the Union (stars on blue background) portion is always to be displayed in the upper left. If they can't get that right, then I assume everything else is wrong too.

Looks like a good recipe for not being a piece of shite, does it not?

Seriously, what is wrong with individualism, family structure, the scientific method, work ethic, punctuality, focusing on securing a future for yourself and family, justice, or competition? Seriously...

i can't answer for all of those (especially the SM), but stuff like "individualism" or "family structure" are usually responded to with something like, "just because that works for you and your culture doesn't mean my culture prefers it", which leads to the contrapositive issues of racial reversal (which we shouldn't really go down)

it's better to just focus on the characteristics and how they're spun into negatives, imho. like this:

American Individualism and Structural Injustice

quote:

American individualist ideology facilitates structural injustice. Through an analysis of Alexis
de Tocqueville on individualism, gender domination, and white supremacy in the United
States, this essay explains why. The peculiar social cognition of the American individualist
desensitizes him to structural injustice. To preserve his faith that his fate lies entirely in his
own hands, he blinds himself to the ways social structure constrains personal freedom and
independence


remember these people are collectivists who seek to demonize any behavior that can separate people from the pack (ie, creating a privilege)

I'm curious what the alternative to the Scientific Method way of thinking is


Emotionally driven decision making. The data says this pretty clearly, but this alternate theory feels right.

Inferring from that chart, here are Aspects and Assumptions of Blackness & Black Culture in the United States:

Reliance on others
Anti-family
Father does not make money
Mother bosses the father around
Children sleep in the living room

Emotional, irrational thinking
Laziness is the key to success
Play before Work
Do not respect authority
Do not value space, property
Do not plan for the future
Always be late

Lose at all costs
Don't speak proper English
Seek out conflict
Be rude

I love how they try to claim that “wypipo food” has no flavor.

Have they ever been to S Louisiana? Hell, there are all sorts of regional flavors.

What’s known as “soul food” is really just southern cuisine that was transplanted by black migrants to Yankeeland during the great migration.

And just because many oversalt and overseason their food doesn’t make it good, or that they have any concept of flavor.

And for the record, “wypipo” took over the globe in search of spices.

Greatest chefs in the world? Lotta “wypipo”

So miss me with that shite

Is this earnest or satire of some type?

nobody is 100% sure exactly what this graphic is showing/arguing

for example, here is something the creator of the chart wrote:

LINK

quote:

If our organizations are going to be fair for all so we can leverage the diversity of the
workforce, we as whites must expose the positive cultural bias that organizations have for
us to the light of day. We must make it visible and acknowledged and known. We must
ensure that white cultural aspects are utilized when they are appropriate and add value for
the benefit of all. And we also must ensure that they are not utilized when they prevent
some groups from making their full added-value contribution.


so...no real help there, either.

the author seems to be focused on workplace diversity

I wonder how many of these things contributed to a brand new nation becoming and remaining the undisputed power in the World in just a few decades?




Also why are we supposed to apologize for our nation’s beauty standards? It’s like if someone went to Japan and complained that most of the models were Japanese

So...the opposite of all those signs represents blackness?
no


Then what does it represent? Is this just a list of shite that "POC" use for racial profiling purposes?

I agree with the analysis and proud to have most of these characteristics.

If one were "guilty" of embracing this analysis, she or she would adapt to better ways due to his or her analytical ability.

How long have programs been in place geared towards "POC" to rise up from their situation?




In the grand scheme of things, not that long.

When I finished lsu in 2012 50% of black college grads were the first in their family. My dad’s high school was segregated until his junior year.

While a few are patently false in today’s world, I support 90% of that list and quite proud to say so..
