The National Museum of African American History & Culture wants to make you aware of certain signs of Whiteness: rugged individualism, hard work, objectivity, the nuclear family, progress, respect for authority, delayed gratification, and more.

As if these aspirations are amoral, divisive, and oppressive.  Reads more like "Keys to Success: How to Live Your Best Life and Raise a Happy Family."

Lol, I was thinking the same thing. The traits on that list are why there is western civilization. Life-saving medical technology, understanding of how atoms work, hydroelectric power, skyscrapers, bridges over chasms, the internet, going from not being able to fly to having robots that can explore another planet by themselves for years on end in less than 100 years. And it has absolutely nothing at all to do with being white. Every successful culture embodies the same traits. I'd imagine the Japanese, for a singular example, adhere to and surpass many things on that list in terms of effort.

The irony is that if I remade this, and took the inverse of everything written there. And applied it to black culture.  It would be an incredibly racist document. Painting their entire race as monsters.

How can the idea of thinking up and printing such a list not be racist?

I guess its only racist if one tells the truth about "people of color,"  which by the way is a made up liberal term in the vein of assault weapon or gun violence.

not really

individualism is looked down upon and it's extremely hierarchical

their work culture is extremely toxic and it doesn't drive innovation

Racism is alive today, because white liberal guilt throws wood into it, every fucking day.
If putting people down for racial stereotypes is okay for a higher caste (the lefty special victim prefix groups), the lower castes (Ex: straight white males, females that disagree with post-birth abortion, and apparently Terry Crews and any non-dem voting minority) might end up dabble in it as they think it's acceptable behavior.

Other than the "Majority Rule" line I don't see anything wrong with this guide and is a good summary for how all humans regardless of race or ethnicity should strive to live their lives.

FWIW keep in mind if you to the opposite of each statement and replaced white with black you would be racist.

Majority rules? Really? Last I checked, founders went out of their way to establish an electoral college to help prevent tyranny of the majority.

Creator of that list can fuck off.

The problem is they are trying to argue that the list above isn't valid, in that people shouldn't be living in that way. It is the "White culture" that has pushed these falsehoods on others and that we need to accept their bull shit culture of slacking off, harming others, raping individuals, etc etc.

If an individual is polite, it is a "negative" thing as it is a "white" thing and not something that should be happening with all people of all walks of life.

It's also based on individualism vs collectivism. Not surprisingly, most from Europe align with individualism and those from countries still shitting in their drinking water favor collectivism.

Especially in America where we take bits and pieces of multiple cultures.

That's why we have such "diverse" food and restaurant options here which is an anomaly.

Skimmed it and my first thought was "who copy/pasta from stormfront". Sad that even I am conditioned to assume that anything that paints European/white culture in a positive light is rooted in 88er literature.

there's a lot that is incorrect in that poster.

Bland food sucks.  good steak does not have to be bland.

but nothing in that list is negative.  I must be so racist that I cannot comprehend the evils it is portraying.
