So much for the myth of the pure and noble "native American"

[ok doser]

You'd deny them the dignity and respect they've earned?


That's harsh, dude

I deny that basic human dignity is earned.

White men are bad

Unless they're gay

Or unless they hate their race.

I keep forgetting that for Musty, "the Left" is his personal name for the boogyman.

Progressivism is an actual way of thinking both politically and as a way of life.

 

[ClimateSanity]

Well then, you were never in my wife's history class. But I'm sure you know something anyway.

I was taught the same history bias as musty.

 

[ClimateSanity]

No.

You don't give Trump or people who disagree with you dignity or respect.

People in prison are not treated with much dignity.

Define "basic human dignity"

What is it?

How does one acquire it?

Can it be lost?

An example.

And who decides who gets to receive the benefits of it? (we already know the answer to that one)

The fact that I'm sitting here in my comfortable summer home drinking a cup of coffee listening to the birds and the waves means that someone else on this planet is being oppressed :banana:

Yes, but only because a white dude is enjoying them. You stole them from Persons of Color. In Europe, the globalist are doing something about that.

I respect their basic human dignity.

People in prison are not treated with much dignity.

That's true. And for the most part, they should be.

 

[musterion]

basic human dignity.

Define that please. Don't quote the UN...what's that mean for you?

[musterion]

An example.

Students will investigate spatial justice and injustice in the multi-ethnic city through the lens of three thematic technologies that have literally built and transformed LA into a global metropolis: cars and highways; networking technologies culminating in the Internet and World Wide Web; and film and broadcast media.


Students will explore new ways to understand, describe, and speculate research findings related to social stratifications, racial and ethnic complexity, and unequal access to information, technology, as well as housing and urban space.

Even the infrastructure and amenities are racist.

I haven't seen that. Doesn't work the other way, either. I know a lot of people who are extremely right wing, and yet act responsibly and decently in their personal life.

 

[The Barbarian]

I'm not sure that rex doesn't. But you have a point. It is difficult to equate "dignity" with someone who hangs faked TIME covers with his face photoshopped onto it, on the walls of his clubs.

He nevertheless deserves to be treated as any other human being. If he's not respected, he has the open microphone to blame, among many other things.

Trump's an extreme case, though. A lot of decent people voted for him. I always thought that Clinton exaggerated the number of truly despicable people who supported him.

 

[The Barbarian]

An example.

It used to just be called "redlining."

I love postmodernism.

The Natives were not all connected- they weren't all savages.

Unfortunately,

the majority of them were.

Pretty much like the rest of humanity.
