no "Black Lives Matter" protests; no prejudicial "Affirmative Action" programs; no worries about whether there are too many Asians at Harvard and not enough Hispanics on television; no racial discrimination law suits, no compulsory diversity training. There would also be no &quo...

What exactly are you getting at? I didn't particularly expect you to buy into some notion that some random black guy in London or Berlin would be lazy on account of his ancestors living somewhere warm. That is Daschund's basic claim, he'll try and spin that he means something less ban-worthy, but y...

Daschund is a white supremacist who thinks that race determines various things about persons, this much is clear and obvious. He can bullshit about being a "white advocate" and imagine his racial separatism is predicated on some sort of separate-but-equal-ism if he wants, but only a total...

Uh huh. So you are of the opinion, shared with Daschund the white supremacist, that white people are more vigorous and industrious than brown people. And what you are doing is discussing the reasons with him for why that might be. I am of the opinion of what I wrote, asshole, not what you wrote. No...

Heavens no. Your projections do not define understanding. It means a human must keep moving to keep warm. Of course these days technology has outstripped evolution. People just stay indoors and have the heat delivered. In olden days when people moved to keep warm, things got built. Things got done....

Several polls were made in the years 1946-1960 showing that Hitler enjoyed support from 50+ % of the German population. Please show your evidence for this highly unlikely claim. You have form for bullshitting. It's well known that in that period Germans were extremely reluctant to discuss Hitler at...

Which of Trump's policies are 'right wing'? His alliance with Putin is enough. Putin's government is right wing. He wants to restore the Tzarist Empire. Trump also handed out tax cuts for the wealthy, hate immigrants, is a nationalist amongst other stuff that really do belong to the right wingers. ...

Climate could be the significant factor for achievement. Northern climes require and promote tenacity. Equatorial tropics are more mañana oriented. Yes, exactly. In the case of the Vikings, for example, the harsh coldness of the Nordic climate and the rugged, barren Scandinavian landscape forged a ...

I don't think anyone can call it 'white' achievement. Look at all the things the Chinese invented. There was the golden age of Islam, with advances in science and mathematics. Humans are infinitely complex and you can't simply say that one race of people has made all the advancements. Oh, and huge ...

Are you talking about 'Western civilization', or specifically American culture eg McDonald's, Burger King, Chuck E Cheese, Hot dogs, Pizza Hutt, Fifty cent, Beyonce etc?

Well, I think you're de-valuing yourself, but, as you own 'you' and can do with yourself as you like, I guess I need to butt out. No worries. I appreciate your attempt to cheer me up. You tried. That's a lot more than many do. I would never attempt to 'cheer up' anyone. Ugh. But you do write some v...

No Israeli govt. has even remotely resembled Nazi Germany. the current one is the same as Germany 33. you think Germany one day was democractic (it was in the 20's) - then off the the sudden they implemented Aushiwitz? if you think so then you need to read a couple of history books. Germany slowly ...

I've gone off script/diverted thread. Amod, you may remove the above if you deem fit - Amod and I have talked a couple of times since i joined last year - he/she/it is kewl IMO. Hey Amod, is Imod as kewl as you are? - i never had the opportunity to speak with the latter. The forum equivalent of an ...
