Quote HistoryQuoted: I have never, and I mean not fucking once seen a single one of them with a smile on their face. As far as the money? Don't know. I have no interest in interacting. I will say this however (comma) the blonde Russian girl in the condo next to mine is the hottest white girl I have ever seen in real life. She doesn't even look real. Being her neighbor, I see her often. She always looks miserable. Probably someones sugar baby. One of my wife's friends was born in St Petersburg, came to the US as a teenager in the late 90s. She was our son's piano teacher for a time. Trained concert pianist. If you showed up for a lesson 5 minutes late she would refuse to open the studio door for you. No smiles. No laughter. All business. One of the most serious people I've ever met. She is friendly though in the most Slavic way possible. Wife met her when she was teaching dance classes and she was like, shit, this Russian girl could be teaching the class alone. I once made the mistake of wearing a shirt with Stalin on it that said "dark humor is like food not everyone gets it" during one of our kid's preschool activity events that she was also going to. I didn't realize her straight up FOB Russian mom would be there. She took one look at my shirt and her eyes got wide. I thought, oh fuck. She explained what the shirt said, her mother did not laugh but simply nodded in agreement |

Life is what you make it.
I found that different people and cultures can be fun. You need to find what works for you. |

No, as far as I'm concerned anyone who has no issues with other races is welcomed to stay in the US. Anyone who takes issue with it can get the fuck out.
Any Indians that want to play the we were here first game can walk back over the land bridge. To the victor goes the spoils just as it has forever. Immigration? I think it should be capped at a stupid low number. Basically it is a struggle to even get your family here, don't mess up. Now? LOL |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I agree with this and it is my reality. I really don't mind about race, never did (56 y/o here). For my entire life. HOWEVER I couldn't live nearby with people with "different cultures". It gets intense soon and it's useless. It brings nothing to the table. In short, the diversity we were sold was a lie. Different cultures are often not compatible and it's a lie that we should try to tolerate each other - it just doesn't work. We don't build any synergy - only similar cultures thrive together. Again, nothing to do with race - but everything culture, social and intellectual status. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: I wouldn't say race but more about wanting to live around people in the same income and education levels, regardless of skin color. Feel both of those are much more of a significant factor than just mere race. HOWEVER I couldn't live nearby with people with "different cultures". It gets intense soon and it's useless.

Interaction along the fringe with people in cultures that are compatible on things like the rule of law, private property, etc ... can be useful. Forcing people with different cultures together is asking for trouble. |

Forced integration is a big problem.
Forcing people who don't get along to be together goes against human nature. Example: Requiring low income housing to be mixed-in with higher-income neighborhoods. People staying on their own side of the tracks worked for a long time, and for good reason. |

I have no problem living among many races as long as they are not divisive. If you have a particular race of men that cannot get along with their fellow man, then I am against them and will not live among them.
As Jesus of Nazareth said, "A house divided against itself will not stand." |

One of my neighbors is former military. Absolutely loves guns, loves his kids, loves putting meats in his smoker and will give us some when he makes too much. We regularly smoke cigars and trade whiskeys. I love that dude and his family and wish my whole neighborhood was like him and his family.
One of my other neighbors is absolute trash. Constantly yelling at his wife. Has a dog he can't control and probably neglects given how often I hear it whining. Has 3 kids from 3 different moms who are rude as fuck whenever I ask them to not throw trash in the street. He is "permanently disabled" which I seriously doubt. House always has a faint weed smell emanating from it. I absolutely cannot wait for him to move out and take his brood with him. One of my neighbors is white, and the other is black. I'll let you guess which is which, but if you're the average GD room temperature IQ poster who thinks race is what determines your behavior, the truth may surprise you. I'll give you a hint: I don't care what race someone is, I care about their values. |

As a young man, one summer I spent a few weeks helping a black neighbor remodel and move shit in his house. We went to school with their kids, etc. Saw a small portrait of a slave rebellion on his wall one day.
It was pretty funny when he handed over cash for helping him, this dude basically paid like half of minimum wage. Was ready to reenact his painting after that  Otherwise ok guy, but he was a total cheapskate with that |

I haven't lived in a predominantly white (like me) environment since I was a very little boy. I honestly don't remember what it was like. It actually feels strange for me to be in a group which is only white and English language only (can't even remember the last time that happened).
In fact, just about all my life has been in more than one language - English, Spanish, Japanese or Mandarin. Often in a bilingual setting but other times where only one of these languages is the only option. And it's not strange for me to be where other languages are spoken which I don't fully comprehend. There actually is no "me" culture anywhere out there - "I" am any and all of these cultures depending on the situation. That being said, it is rare for me to be in a "Woke" or "diversity enforced" environment. I find it strange how America seems to be pushing for some artificial "diverse" environment which has an unspoken rule about discounting one group in that diversity. In none of the truly diverse/global circumstances I have lived in would anybody act like that. Even in rigid, traditional Japanese society outsiders are treated as outsiders only to the extent that they don't understand how to act properly in Japanese society. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I would agree with this. I don’t care what race you are as long as you are a good person. People with ghetto culture are what I avoid at all costs, no matter their race. I sincerely think that the USA is going to be led by the new second generation Mexican and Polish citizens. Faith, family, work ethic and numbers. I wish these two specific groups on a whole valued education a bit more than they currently do. Indians, do, Indians get it. Faith, family, work ethic, education, and pure lovers of capitalism. Things we NEED in the USA. We NEED the best doctors, guys who busted their balls to learn the lessons, studied instead of partied in school. This is the doc I want if I have a heart surgery, need a knee fixed, or cancer treatment. Forget any bullshit about color. There are groups working to separate us and divide using names, categories, and stereotypes. We are not that stupid to see what is at play. We are a melting pot, NOT a salad bowl. We are the envy if the world, and I firmly believe in American Exceptionalism. |
