Controversial General Political Discussion

[Logiko]

convenient (and insane)

What do you want me to say? You are blissfully bathing in your own ignorance. I feel like a primary school teacher tired of kids laughing at the lessons thinking they know better..


And don't tell me I'm pretentious. It must be the 10th time that I try to explain with respect this concept.

No, its just the definition for the term "racism". you are talking about "systemic racism" and then pretending like thats the only way to use that term.

Racism IS systemic racism. ffs

Most people are not sociologists and will just use the general definition

We are not most people, we are literate people exchanging in a political thread. I consider you intelligent enough to understand that we have to use more complex political reasonning to understand a complex subject. But maybe I'm wrong...

and i feel i have to repeat this point once again: people disagreeing with you doesnt mean they dont understand what you are saying. sometimes you just say really stupid shit.

Trust me, like most of the time when I explain something I you counter it, You do not understand the subject here lmao

"white" is of no significance to me, because while being "white" im still not ethnically german so far righties hate my guts just as much as they would do with black or asian or whatever people.

i highly doubt these shifts you are talking about will radically change my views on the topics we have talked about in this thread lmao.

You will see.

Stop having discriminatory expectations

That's new

sure, if we want to talk about systemic racism. We dont talk about that though when we acknowledge that people from every racial category can view their own category as superior than others, you know, racism

you failed to properly explain why that would happen 3 times with this post.

In this case, again, it's not only a disagreement, it's a missunderstanding.

systemic racism is systemic racism.

Good, you are learning

Another religious MAGAt who has an association with the president gets popped for pedophilia?? Many, many, MANY such cases!! And now, let’s check in with our bootlicking correspondent @Ravagerblade for either a tepid response about how “trans people are more likely to be child molesters” despite providing zero evidence for this claim, or perhaps no response at all

The Trump Administration are thinking of taking stake in quantum computing firms like they did with Intel and mineral companies. People are saying that it makes them communist when in reality, its Facism. A characteristic of Facism is state-owned capitalism, and has happened in the past leading up everyone's favorite war in history(WW2).

You seem to have missed the part where i dont disagree on systemic racism itself, just your insistence thats the only context in which "racism" can be used. . . .

I repeat: You learned a BASIC and VULGARIZED definition of racism, something that we teach kid so they understand. At the moment what you are doing is refusing to understand that what you learned needs a sociological update. Usually, people don't need more, but we are talking about politics and it's important for you to think beyond your education and learn to challenge it.

i have some 10ish% north african/arabian peninsula heritage even. 4% finnish isnt enugh to compensate

Man how old is that DNA test? "North african/arabian peninsula" is so broad a category it's practically useless.
And 4% Finnish Looks like you have some of the oldest ice age hunter gatherer DNA. Do you know of any actual Finnish/Nordic/Siberian ancestor because if not, this part might be from the Iberian peninsula itself(especially if you did the test years ago or it was a cheap one).

That's new

Ok, how many kilometers is a place required to be away from le wood for you to respect its inhabitants as equal human beings.

More reasonning, less nonsense. It will not help you to be afraid of learning stuff.

Well I would say that's state capitalism, it can be considered communist in the way Lenin meant it, which does not give workers ownership of the means of production, and every other socialist but state capitalists condemn that idea

However the thing is that state capitalism is state-run capitalism, the capitalists' role is taken on by the people who run state

It isn't just having a stake in a few companies

It would be like if the Trump administration together with the democratic party, became 100% owners of all corporations and also became landlords of all houses and land etc

State capitalism is also just state ownership of the means of production, but fascism encourages capitalists to follow their economic interests freely without restraint, and brutally opresses workers, a country can be state capitalist and that doesn't make it fascist

Post automatically merged: Yesterday at 2:36 PM

But just because it isn't fascist doesn't mean it isn't authoritarian, from a socialist perspective, capitalism is inherently authoritarian, fascism is just that inherent authoritarian-ness being encouraged by the state, and turned up to 100

Post automatically merged: Yesterday at 2:40 PM

And state capitalism would be authoritarian too, Lenin and Stalin's USSR and China and other authoritarian leftist countries suck bad and don't fix the core issues, at most from what I heard you can get just some social democracy from them in the best times they have had

I hate when people calls these politicians pigs.

Pigs are so much more respectable than fascists.

Pigs roll around in dirt.

Fascist politicians roll around in money they made bombing people.

bro this is getting tiring.

there is no need for an update. one is the colloquial definition most people use in everyday life. the other is about a system of oppression. with the latter, you cant call people racists, that requires the general definition where its just about prejudice based on race.

i KNOW what you are talking about, i dont DISAGREE with what you are talking about, but you are WRONG to insist thats the only way of using the term racism. its extremely narrow minded, pretentious and arrogant.

i think it was myheritage and yeah it was a couple years ago. i dont know the exact names of the categories, so that might be an issue here as well.

No. Again. You do not understand. If you did, you would agree or listen. In this case, despite what you are thinking, you are the one who is “narrow minded”. You cannot question this belief that two racisms exist, it's comfortable. But it's wrong. Racism is derived from scientific racism, a pseudoscience which was then used as a system of domination that created the racism you think you know today.

"No one understands unless they agree with me". Fucking hell...never change.

You know.. Sometimes you need to accept that you do not understand everything. It's ok, it won't scrap your pride or honor away. I've done that a thousand times, it's really not a big deal. But to understand that, you also need to respect the other enough to listen. And here is where the problem lies, the system of this forum, rather internet, is not created for us to have this epiphany systematically.

These commercial DNA tests are consumer products for entertainment purposes. The older ones in particular used vague groupings of regions and the likelyhood to find certain DNA markers in countries' modern populations. Today the categories they use are narrowed down but it's still a consumer product* that is not treated like DNA would be handled in a scientific context.




*actually a scam to harvest your DNA and make you pay for it.

From my perspective, you have no idea how ridiculous it reads.. I guess you can't know, you don't really know what I had to rethink and the level of self questioning I went through. But you would be wise to observe the evolution of my discourse here, you might notice an evolution, not only in the way I speak alone or with others, but also in my radicality and even my values. All because I listened.
