      Bolsonaro built his platform through voluntary campaigns on social media. He had no air time, almost no money. He didn't collude with any political party, had the entire media working against him, a smear campaign orchestrated by the Left. He's going against the entire system and they have nothing on him. A rare case of integrity in a country consumed by corruption.

      That’s a product fundamentally of belief in “Karma”, combined with endless forms of Authoritarian Discipline derived from Confucian nationalism. Indians also had Karma limiting them, but had more natural freedom from jungle life lowering the capacity of the Maharajas to micro manage everyone most of the time. China, however, has a lot more harsh environments as well as communities that were wide open to invaders in early ages. That motivated defensive projects like The Great Wall that could only be accomplished through ruthless authoritarianism, which instilled on an archetypal level extraordinary levels of conformity and mindless loyalty.
      There was one story that has bugged me that was originally meant as a tale of moral virtue.
      An emperor receives word about a man who was seen flying. He investigates personally and gathers all who witnessed it and the flying man, an inventor and pure entrepreneurial genius, full of ideas for making China a greater place. The emperor hears him out, then commands he be summarily executed, his works burned and all who witnessed him silenced on pain of death to never reveal any details. Begging to know why as his lest request, the emperor explained, “What if an enemy of the empire decides to use your flying machine as a weapon to get over our Great Wall, and drop Stones or bombs on our people? Think of the wars in the sky that would ensue”, and then had him killed.
      By that logic, no man should have ever made a knife from stone to hunt and butcher prey with, lest rivals turn them on one another. Objectively, the invention of blades has saved FAR more lives then it has taken, as have every tool that is a potential weapon from fire to guns. Yes, it’s tragic that war planes were in the air less then ten years after the Wright Brothers’ breakthrough, but planes have saved more lives then they’ve killed, from delivering food quickly, to evacuation from dangers that would overtake any other form of escape, and millions of other examples, not to mention the improvements in living standards that such convenience makes in a million little ways. That emperor was a short sighted fool, and a coward afraid of change, and the fanatical pragmatism Of karmic and Confucian beliefs fueled this stagnant way of thinking. But, that philosophy could have arisen anywhere. The earliest roots of that pragmatic simplicity came from the very practical spirituality of Animism, and there certainly was plenty of that among primitive Europeans, it just never became quite so sophisticated in isolation as in the orient. The Rise of Roman Republicanism steered Europe in a different direction, casting first skepticism of Animist pragmatism and cyclical fatalism, then radically upended by the rise of the Logos.
      The Chinese were hardly incapable of this sort of revolution, they were just not lucky enough to get the opportunity in a relatively easy order.

    Wow, there's a lot of too-far-right commenters in here. I wasn't expecting that. America is probably the single most non-homogeneous country, racially. So being "American" means holding a set of ideals much more than being of the white British ethnicity. If every person in America was Nigerian and they held the same ideals that we as Americans currently hold then what is the problem?

It's most certainly not about holding the same ideals. I used to believe as you do; life has opened my eyes. Before 1965, the US was overwhelmingly whiter and cleaner and safer.

      Moreover, they invent the illusion of division, separation, and disconnection between the me and the not me, which breeds conflict, violence, and suffering.
      See the danger.
      The brain must be Totally Free in order to Perceive what is...the isness, the fact, the act, the actual...what is actually taking place from moment to moment, free of any interpreter or censor.
      Then and only then is one capable of actually Living Love, Peace, Joy, Kindness, Goodness, Compassion (Passion for All), Beauty, Creativity, Feeling, ExperiencING, Lucidity, Truth, Wisdom...in Communication, Communion, Relationship with everyone and everything, for the very first time, in each and every moment of daily life.
      So first Inner Total Freedom. Then and only then can there be Outer Total Freedom in the society.
      Only such a brain can usher in a Whole New Way of Living rooted in Love and Wisdom.

      We already have gazillions of practical creative solutions.

      VansSkully if believing that races differ in their Bell curves regarding some traits, and this belief is supported by science, then being a racist (using your definition and I agree that that is one common and accepted definition) would be a scientific and moral stance. The term race realism is used by some to distinguish these (possible) legitimate beliefs, from the way that some people use race as a justification to treat people poorly. I would not call it a pseudoscience word exactly, though I concede that some who are indeed racist in every conceivable may use the term as cover.

    I think Ben is wrong on this issue. Even if you say race doesn't completely determine culture, in some kind of genetic determinism argument. It still effects how likely you will be to adapt to a culture. People are *more* to shift towards the culture of people who look like them.
    Bringing in someone will have them mix into the race and culture of people they most closely identify with. Meaning an African immigrant will more often than not, shift to be like other black people.

    • @antman1672
      @antman1672 Před 5 lety

      @Genghis Khan Then it is a difference in definitions. I view culture as the social norms, behavior, mythology, political philosophy, and social institutions a group of people share.
      Art and media is a universal, and is often shared across people. How people behave, and govern themselves is what I mean by culture.

Cultures do take time to develop in their ability to accept certain ideologies, especially ones so radical in context and times like the West's must be. Asian Americans certainly haven't seemed to have rejected so greatly the ideals of the United States, considering how successful they are.

    Okay everyone needs to chill on the if this people move in then would it still be that nation. Certain nations are built around ethnicity and race ie Britian, Sweden, Greece, India, Japan, China, etc. But other nations are built on creeds and principles such as the US and even though its hard for many to see but also Israel, even some of the Arab states are built on principles, though their starting premise is of the Islamic religion, kind of a bad hybrid if you ask me because Islam promotes Arab centric views hence why a lot of Muslims dress like seventh century Arab merchants.
    The modern state of Israel is more of an creedal and principle nation because they do have an immigration process that is open to everyone but of course there is a preference for Jewish migrants because of the basis in a common Jewish heritage. There are reports of Black Hebrew Israelites from the US being able to do aliya regardless of their genetic, ethnic, and race connection because they are willing to live , assimilate, and identify with that common Jewish heritage. Just like in the US how we are pushing for a meritorious immigration reform so we can receive migrants who are vetted to think like us and assimilate into American society.

      That's because Jewish can also denote a geographically genetic region. Just like "Arab" isn't denoted as a major race but there is a genetic signature for it.

Only whites go to space for exploration, and only whites are naturally gravitated to always explore, always learn, and never settle.

    If there is only one race, ideology is more important. The American Civil War was fought between WASP Southerners and WASP Northerners over ideology. Northern soldiers fought not to free the slaves, but to preserve the Union. The Southerners fought a defensive war to maintain the independence of the CSA. When there is more than one race as is the present condition of the USofA, there is only one ideology. It was best expressed by Stalin with the words...."Who, Whom?" Leonard Cohen expressed it with the words... "Who will serve and who will eat.?" Race will almost always trump ideology, or to put it in practical political term; a Race will adopt any ideology that best serves their immediate needs to wealth and power.
