How do we counter racial nationalism?
By understanding that the concept of race is a myth, nothing more than a label that started as a pejorative and continues without interruption. It was meant to segregate that which cannot be segregated, at least not on any scientific basis. In that sense racial nationalism expresses nothing more except a supreme prejudice in the form of an oxymoron. That which separates peoples in time and place is based much more on culture than anything racial.
What I was talking about was not 'racial nationalism' - it was simply - nationalism. USA does not have a 'race'. It is now multicultural, like most countries where the seed of UK nation and its values grew and continue to grow - and there i am, being a tad 'nationalist' - most of those countries are now of MULTI RACES of people, that just want a nice place to live and raise a family.

Race is an interesting word - especially when U under-stand that this language we are conversing in has more depth than any natural etymology.

R we in a RACE? What is this RACE? - we are ALL actually tribal. When we raise the flag of our nation, most of us feel some pride - like a pack of lions.

R_ACE is that we R all from the same place - the HEARTH 3 steps from the Sun. EARTH.

So.

Nothing so far as 'nationalism' needs to be countered - so long as THAT nation has the right to have pride, that within its borders there is no RACIAL ridiculous, pathetic drive that is dividing the occupants of said nation. (a big ask since we live amongst morons)

The English Premier League - football - now at the start of every game - ALL players take a knee to state the Black Lives Matter (and this has come about since the disgusting and clearly generic from history of some USA people that cannot empathise with those whose skin happens to be of a different hue).

I am not happy with this Black - White - binary ridiculous stance. Until we all real eyes - there are NO black people and there are NO white people - racial intolerance as seeing each other as binarily different will NEVER be extinguished.

Personally - I am beige - and 'white' people vary in such a hue. So called 'black' people are varying hues of brown.

Well. That's my 5 sense worth.

Simply inject them with the Deplorable Vaccine, the version laced with tracking nanobots. Document their illegal congregating and turn all that Nevada wasteland into prisons so the congregants can serve out their punishments. Zero tolerance, if this week's maximum is ten and eleven congregate, busted. Off to the hoosegow. Staff the prisons with illegals, who will be illegal no more. May as well put the trackers in the Desirables’ Vaccine too, keep tabs on their illegal congregating, but only to use for political leverage in future persuasions. Call the tracking information metadata to assuage concerns, folks are already conditioned to that one. Jazz up the name, call it the Hope and Change Vaccine. Folks seem to like that old Doublespeak standby.

Pronouns have already been restructured.

Turn that same attention to a name for every shade of skin.

There must be hundreds of shades.

And you better not forget the right word for each shade, or there will be consequences.

Bold Belinda: Hate speech must be made illegal, and the law enforced.

Mysterious Mannie: It already is. True "hate speech" is rightly called "incitement to violence," and one can be charged for it.

in context, free men and women ought to concern themselves with, look to squelch, quantifiably injurious slander and libel (lies), and nuthin' more

counter the vulgar, don't ban it; counter the wrong-headed, don't jail them

no hateful speech or inciting language ever moved a body to do what it wasn't inclined to do to begin with

As requested...but you could have found it easily yourself. It wasn't hidden.

Actually, I understand that perfectly.

All it means, though, is this: that the Leftist organizations will never publish facts that will harm Biden, and the conservative media will seek such things out and report them. But what of that? It means that you can trust the Leftist press for nothing, on the subject of Biden, and if there are any negative truths to be told, you will find them only in conservative sources. (It might be the opposite in regards to, say, critiques of President Trump, if what you say about media is true.)

All this, you say, is just normal for news reporting. :shock: So the ONLY sources you can expect to find reliable here are conservative ones. By your own confession, on this matter anyway, the Leftist sources will inevitably simply hide the truth or lie.

US media is owned. (vested interests control what is fed to the US citizens)

Sad thing is tho - its always seems to get back to that binary thing - black people and white people, red team or blue team. - surely both camps have certain positives where one can sit somewhere in the middle.

Yes, it's sad. But it's not about blacks and whites. Look at how the Left treats any person of colour, or any woman, who "defects" from their plantation to the conservative side: they call them "Uncle Toms," or "Aunt Jemimas," and claim that people as intelligent and perspicuous as, say Candace Owens or Thomas Sowell, of not knowing what they should be saying, or of being "race traitors."

But you're right: we've stopped listening to each other. And because of this, the worst members of both sides are freed up to "rabble rouse," and radicalize every discussion. The middle never speaks to each other anymore. And there are "middle" people, such as, say, Tulsi Gabbard on the one side, or Trey Gowdy on the other, who could have intelligent, productive discussions, even though their politics are from opposite sides of the aisle.

Nobody's listening to them. It is as Yeats said, in his poem "The Second Coming":

Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
