Proud white heterosexual male here, but I love all my brothers and sisters of any and all colors. It is not the color of our skin that matters. It's what is in our heart.
then why be proud? Maybe unashamed is a more accurate word? There's not much content to being a white person or a black person or a male or female, doesn't tell much specific about the individual.
But the color of one's skin does matter. Hunans are tribal by nature. Do you really think we evolved so differently on the outside that none occurred on the inside?

I'm not Christian, but I support her. We all value our civilisation's history, unless you're a radical atheist whose religion is now neo-Marxism. Belief in a higher order seems to be the only thing holding people together societally. Have we ever found an atheist civilisation? I'm pretty sure mercantile city states survived being diverse and secular, but once the money dried up, they all went their own ways.
It's cultural heuristics. That's all. It's not the supernatural bits it's the moral system. However people seem to really really cling to the silly bits.
@@_nebulousthoughts your silly bits are for a great many people the divine truth. Compared to the dysfunction inflicted on society by a secular cycle, those silly bits are quite tame. I'm also interested in hearing any examples you have of a lasting and thriving civilisation that didn't have a "supernatural" element. Something has to be there to establish a shared moral compass, and history has shown time and again that a shared transcendant authority can't be replaced by lifeless documents or a cult of personality.
One can imagine much better social systems than the ones developed in the western Christian tradition but you can’t find an example of one that already exists nor that existed previously. Whether an adherent of the religion or not, understanding it as the vehicle for societal evolution is necessary in judging its worth.
That's a pretty extreme statement. Lots of terrible christian societies, and the best places to live today are the most secular and atheistic. The west was also influenced by native american society which influenced the enlightenment, by utopianism of the 17th and 18th centuries, by local traditions of farmers and artisans that often had pagan or other roots, by revolts and uprisings that occured throughout the world not only in europe, and by the greco-roman tradition. In fact democracy comes from the latter, and it influenced christianity, that's why christians believe in souls and heaven and hell, despite those being pagan. We also know of many historical non western societies that certainly had a lot of freedom, accountability or fellowship for their times, perhaps even compared to today.
@@emilianosintarias7337 I can agree with half of your statement, "... the best places to live today are the most secular and atheistic..." Secular, yes. Atheistic, NO. The irony is that your defense of the *contributions* of various religions is the reason that I can't agree on the atheistic aspect.
@@Nyet-Zdyes People are less religious in Canada, Finland, Taiwan, Australia, Iceland etc than in most countries. It's not like The Finns or Japanese are just keeping their religious fervour out of politics. They don't have much of any in the first place. I think you are confusing that pagan cultural roots were religious thousands of years ago - but that's not the part that we take from them anymore.
@@emilianosintarias7337 The concept of divine justice comes from religion. Heaven or the hot place for one example. Karma for another. Reincarnation, either "higher" or "lower" is yet another. That also ignores the historical and foundational significance of religion, pagan or otherwise, in their current society. For example, the European idea of "Lady Justice" comes from a Roman goddess... and before that, there were Egyptian and even older semi-equivalents. This is, IMO, very likely the original source of our cultural "reverence" for the *concept* of justice... and I think that applies to most atheists and agnostics. In effect, "justice" moved from the realm of religion, to a duty of the state, bypassing religion... but it's baked into the foundation of the entire culture. Some of the worst things in European history come from having a warped sense of justice, such as in 1930['s Germany, when an entire group of people were UNJUSTLY labeled as "enemies of the state"... thus a perversion of justice. At other times and places, the state effectively destroyed or replaced religion... and that was even worse... example, USSR. So, like I said, I can agree with being secular, but being atheist is not, in any way that I can see, any kind of improvement.
Well, Islam is at least conservative... Feminism? No... that 💩 is far left. It's strange, to me, how they want to tear down the system that gave them all of the benefits that enjoy so much. They are like spoiled little children throwing a tantrum.
Janice I was just listening to an audible about propaganda. The reaction you discribed sounds just like Soveit proagandist denouning a scapgoat, just replace the economic terms with social justuce ones.
Yes. Once again, the communists are on the rise spreading their hatred and intolerance. Since they survived the days of J Edgar Hoover, they are now entitled to an eternal free pass to do exactly what they accuse others of doing and to claim victim status in the process.
And in our time, talking about the USSR a definitive of propaganda, sounds like propaganda. In fact, a country like Canada is even more propagandist than the USSR, since it has less ability to ship off its wrongthinkers to siberia. The PR industry wasn't founded either by SJWs or by the Russians - but by the corporate powers we hear so little about in both woke and anti-woke rhetoric.
And we wonder why people were lobotomized in the old days now you know! Any questions? We need a website put up so these people's pictures and their names and where they live can be posted so everybody knows exactly who they are!

I think it’s important to describe individual men’s behaviour, to accumulate a body of knowledge that reveals the extent of the commitment - small and large - that men and boys make every day - unpaid and unacknowledged - to our specific and general well-being. The generalizations that we hear and read on media, and in private life, tend to go unchallenged. I have recently begun to point out unfair and thought-less sneers and jeers to those closest to me. I am aware of personal sufferings at the hands of individual men, and,these should be acknowledged, but we have to reject the calling-out of the other half of the species. As an octogenerian adult female, I weep for good men and I hold them in my heart.
There are bad women who abuse, kill, and r@pe people every fuckin day. Terrible comment that kisses and hugs female supremacism. "Yes dear, so many men are evil, but not all of them 😥". 1% of the population commits 63% of the violent crime. Women commit 90% of infanticide, 50% of DV. This is demonic the way men are aggressively emotionally abused into submission from birth, and some useless old lady kissing and hugging those abusers is pretty pathetic.
Respect for free speech and articulate writing is pretty much the only thing separating Prof. Fiamengo from her targets in this piece. That's not nothing, those are 2 key values to hold onto and crucial in this case - but unchecked ideological glosses and partisanship can lead to mental gymnastics among the anti-woke as well. For one thing, a passionate catholic, celebrator of the west, may be a nonconformist in academia, but this is clearly a political debate, and those are not anti-establishment positions when the rubber meets the road. The catholic church essentially founded state power and elite classes in the west, and is one of the largest property holders on earth, with up to 2 million members. It's pretty mainstream. Every American president so far has had to at least LARP at being christian. Milo, whatever his comedic merits, turned out to be a, sorry to use the word, "grifting" fraud, that seems undeniable given his later trajectory. It was a ticket to ride for him. Besides, he really was a bigot if judged by his actions. I doubt Ms Fiamengo would loudly publicly chastise anyone for showing up, peacefully, to a talk at an American campus, simply for wearing a hijab, for looking muslim. Even as a critic of Islam myself, I would consider that something else, something prejudicial. That's certainly not respecting freedom of expression or judging people by their character. But that's what he did. He was also quite a shallow debater and interlocutor, even pretty far into his political phase, citing things like "loads of studies" followed by some very tangential non sequitur. While nobody should be cancelled, it's not beyond the pale to go hard in print against the respectability of a defense of Milo. Further, using the word "communist" as an implied insult or point to discredit an academic sounds a bit like the woke" behavior that Ms. Fiamengo has rightfully condemned when it is directed at the catholic medieval scholar being defended here. I think it also probably betrays a 1 sided historical knowledge on her part on the various --isms and -ists, just like those who go after catholics and medievalists may suffer from.There's actually a pretty intricate tradition, particularly in the US arguably the birthplace of communism, between communists and the promotion of free speech and liberal, bourgeois values. Not to mention the close relationship between communists and christians in the US, Germany and France. If that seems strange, it's not stranger than the Catholicism underpinning the dignity of the individual, or of the creation of secular society.
