Other Cultures - My complaint about the United States today...

[Eyeball Chambers]

I enjoy learning about, and experiencing other cultures (when it's my choice).  What I don't like though, is the way that we expect each other to accept and embrace everything under the sun, and that because of this, we're subjected to bullshit that we shouldn't have to be.

Comment please...

I think what he means is that at every turn you have multiculturalism forced down your throat. Any objection, however benign, brands you as intolerant or a racist. Patriotism is a code word for ignorance and extremism.

Our schools teach the children in this country that America is bad, the founding fathers were evil and that terrorists are misunderstood freedom fighters. Religion and religious diversity is a bad thing (unless it's non Judeo-Christian, then it's wonderful) and our founding fathers intended for this country to be founded on atheist principals.

Cultural and moral relativism is a disease that infects the first world and brainwashes people into believing that nobody is better than anybody else and everybody is the best at everything. Tolerance in this country doesn't mean what is listed in the dictionary anymore. In the United States tolerance means the wholesale acceptance of everything that the adherents of the "Non Dominant Culture" follow without passing any judgments, (however obvious) on whether the actions or beliefs of the "Non Dominant" culture are correct, misguided, stupid or offensive.

Its because we are suckers, dupes, fools, and on the road to national suicide. 

Eyeball, if you want proof of what I am talking about, just go look at the DADT thread.  Chad admits in there that gays probably will not join the military even if DADT is repealed and he does not cvare about the effect on the military, only that it makes a political point.

Can you give some examples of what you mean?

[kcballer]

I don't think i understand your statement there eyeball.  America is the way it is now because of 'other' cultures mixing and sharing and tolerating.

We are supposed to be a melting pot, not a salad bowl.

I was out in the heat yesterday and some muslim woman was out there in a burqa looking miserable as her fat ass pofs husband was in flip flops and shorts smiling away. 

The woman looked miserable in that stupid thing.

There's only one demographic that is incapable of assimilating with the rest of the people in this country.

Well said as usual.

The idea that their women are treated like garbage is a misunderstanding by us islamophobes.

My GF looked at me when we saw that lady and said "if you ever tried putting me in a burqa, you would quickly regret teaching me how to shoot your guns."

Best way to put it!

Haha, don't expect their women to act like that. Seems most of them are too brain dead to think that their lives are of value. Centuries of subjugating, beating, rape and murder have ingrained that thought process into their heads.

That's exactly what I would have posted had I given it more time and thought!!! YES!

Can you show me where schools teach our children that our founding fathers were evil?

I agree about the ready branding of racism.  It's stupid.

I would think if that is indeed happening or has happened then it would be a minority view held by some radicals. 

It's all interpretation i don't think we should sugar coat the founding fathers either, they had flaws just like every one else.  To deny such things is foolish and perhaps someone teaching that to students has or is being labeled as teaching the founders as evil. 

In the grand scheme of things it's not like it matters much, history is forgotten by a lot of today's generation just as it will be forgotten by a lot of tomorrows generation. 

[OzmO]

GW said schools teach our children that the founding fathers were evil.  That's a pretty strong statement and if true, should be a very easy thing to show.  I want to know if that's happening.  Teaching children that they had flaws is not teaching they were evil.

How did you know what she looked like being that she was in a Burqua?    


If they were tourist from the Middle East or Africa they can tolerate heat a lot more effectively than you in america as their temperatures reach into the near 150 degrees in the Sahara or the sands of Arabia

If it is happening it's a minority of students being taught it, and most likely they don't give a sh*t one way or another.  They aren't going to remember it 2 hours after class because they care more about whose dating who and just how to vote for the next American Idol.  Most likely just like their parents.  

[Soul Crusher]

The face was showing and she looked pissed off with sweat beading down.

Its horrible and her fat ass pofs husband was on his cell phone was about 10 feet in front of her.

Sooooooo...If she was in a string bikini and flip flops sweating like crazy and getting sun burned while other men made sexual comments on her shapely body and her fat ass piece of shit husband was on a cell phone 10 feet in front of her, would it have been different?

Move along, Muslim. This thread isn't about your propaganda and lies.

What's your definition of both?

Melting pot:?

Salad bowl:?

As for the lady......  who gives a shit?  If that's what she wants to do, then let her.  Who cares?  that's what America is about isn't?  Dress how you want, worship how you want, say what you want.  right?

[Soul Crusher]

Seeing this woman it was plainly obvious she was NOT doing what she FREELY wanted to do. 

And a melting pot is what made this country what it is, not the salad bowl with every third world vermin culture coming here and demanding we respect their 3rd world jungle ways.

Yes, she was.  If she decided not to wear what she was wearing she, by the laws of the USA, she didn't have to.   She chose to marry that guy and chooses to continue to do what he tells her. 

What do you mean "demanding respect"?

[Eyeball Chambers]

I use the sauna a few times a week. I bet I can go toe for tow with any African in the heat. LOL

[Soul Crusher]

Ha ha ha.  Yeah right Ozmo.  Good try.  They have arranged marriages and those women step out of line they are beaten like dogs or worse. 

[OzmO]

Ha ha ha.  Yeah right Ozmo.  Good try.  They have arranged marriages and those women step out of line they are beaten like dogs or worse. 

But in AMERICA,  she is free to leave.  And if she gets beat up the husband is charged with assault and is NOT protected by the law as he would be in another country.

You act as if they are not subject to our laws in favor of their customs.  NO WAY.  So i don't know what you are talking about.  In the end, in this country she can CHOOSE if she wants.
