Has multiculturalism actually ever worked?

>>16407632Sure you are Rajesh. I'm sure all your ancestors were mighty Aryan warriors of the highest caste instead of dung munching peasants. Go back to scamming boomers and leave the actual whites alone.
>>16407655Never even been to India and I'd stand out like a sore thumb.
>>164036801) Massive burden to the state and to tax payers (a higher burden than even pensioners).2) Crime and damage to social trust. Additional costs to security, insurance premiums etc. that has to be carried by the working classes.3) Lowering of educational standards to accomodate low IQs; damaging the intellectual capital in the state even of natives with genetic potential. This rapidly destroys the high tech industrial economy we had and is turning it into a third world style economy.4) Littering everywhere.
Why did God create darkness before He created light?
>>16407574According to this, God created light, and formed darkness, at the same time. Therefore, OP is incorrect in saying that God created darkness before light. From this, the creation happened at the same time as the forming.
>>16407574The Og Darkness was there before any creation act happens, it's the basis of my religion. (Gnostic pagan). Legend speaker of Darkness coming back (*waves*) and triumphing.
>>16407587>Why isn't light the lack of definition? Why did benevolent god chose the more sinister of the two? It's because he's evilIf you want to invent your own language, like some kind of bizzaro superman daimonion, then good luck. I would rather start with the languages that have been tested for thousands of years by myriads of people. Do you have a theory about an inverse language?
>>16407624Death does not need a religion, or a god. If you seek death, it's easy to find. Religions and gods are for the living, who seek life.
>>16407608>created light, and formed darknessFormed light and created darkness
How come the USSR banned marital rape so early, in 1922, 70 years before most of Europe did it? I thought Russia were socially primitive and far behind the West?
>>16407281having empathy of any kind is redditshowing emotion is reddityou must only be a soulless stoic and ironically shitpost and call everyone niggers and trannies or else you're reddit
>>16407291This but unironically.
>>16407281It really is. It might not be wrong, but it is Reddit.
>>16407111I can guarantee you that there are infinitely more people who accepted their spouses requests despite not wanting to do it and weren't traumatized in the slightest by it.
>>16399593Something is either rape or it's not. Why does "marital" need to be in there?
Is Loli really for pedophiles? I have to say, I am generally quite shocked bad perturbed by some ofThe images I’ve seen in Loki threads, it seems like outright pedophilia. How is this legal, what are the ramifications and repercussions to liking Loli? Why are there so many Loli fans (pedophiles) out there?
>>16407570Also, if he actually did it, then why is he not in prison?Could it be, because he actually did nothing wrong to those girls? They just did a joke video and that's it.So shut up, you idiot.
>>16407017Problem with media is the majority of fictional protagonists or main casts are characters under the age of majority acting like adults. Since most media enjoyers are around the same age when exposed to these characters but due to being fictional they never grow they end up boiling frogging themselves into being lolicons, well at least most of them, others just have aged up art.
>>16407600zomg lul u madnow i wont go look for the video 4 u m8it is referenced by a YouTube video on "hentai is bad" and even has a voice recording of him admitting everything.basically u sed:1. if he did it, why wasn't he convicted (i have no idea, why are literally millions of contemporary slave-owners not in prison right now, the world will never know i guess).2. but even if he did it, it wasn't bad, random foreign men visit the home of little girls all the time out of the blue, especially if they are virgins3. also:>later claimed that it was a jokeu r newfag>>16407576I see, you are actually a distinct poster, my apologies!

>>16407644What?That doesn't even make any sense?Why are you linking paxtube's hentai video in a discussion about loli art?Loli art is not all hentai, you, you know that right?
>>16407017>Is Loli really for pedophiles?Yes>How is this legalIt's legal in places that consider that it isn't pedophilia (attraction toward children) itself that should be illegal but only sexual behavior toward existing children
How do race realists explain away Mesoamerican architecture?
>>16407400A rogue daoist cultivator made all of that, ALL of it.
>>16407400That's andean architecture, not Mesoamerican. All things considered, Mesoamerican architecture was pretty simple, just simple pyramids and stone houses plastered and painted to look pretty.
>>16407400>explain
>>16407400>Mesoamerican That's ANDEAN architecture you fucking retard
>>16407637Shut up faggot
They speak a latin language, draw a large part of their culture and habits from Rome, drink wine and more often than not are brown or dark haired except in some regionsEven the muh celts cope doesnt work because La Tene Celt where celtic gauls stemmed from clustered with southern french, north Italians and IberiansThe truth is that Gaul has always been part of the mediterranean world in fact even before the roman conquest.French who seethe on southern europeans at this point are no better than Mexican who do so except that at least the latter have the excuse of not looking entirely similar to the people that give them their culture and language
>>16407588>>16407618Normands are not all French people, but even they are less than half germanic.
>>16407588maybe it was true, but france is dead now. The poison dagger has been plunged into its heart and all greatness is fading from those lands.
>>16407618>57 / 16 / 1>>16407626It is a testament of the superiority of the Frankish Germnaic race
>>16407639French aren't germanic, person in your pic is just light pigmented French. Blond Iberians and Italians aren't germanic too.

The persians were in the period of disentigration much like it was easy for the germanic tribes to conquer rome when it was imploding same way the turks conquered byzantium when it imploded due to the same reasons..part 4 end
>>16407526>>Gets born into a rich wealthy family whose daddy is a smart son of a bitchIt literally took you one line to out yourself as somebody who has no idea what you are talking about. Phillip was effectively straddling bankruptcy his whole reign and so was Alexander before he went Eastwards.>>Uses one trick pony tactics that his daddy inventedYou have never read any primary or secondary source on Alexander before.

that every black-run country in history just so happened to have some insurmountable circumstance preventing them from building a high-functioning civilization?
>>16406705>The "insurmountable circumstance" was that the entire continent only had 140 million people in 1900>Less people = less urbanizationOther way around, chimp.Being developed enough is what makes population increase (as shown by the massive increase in African population after white medicine made the child mortality rate drop).Of course people who live half naked in neolithic huts aren't gonna have a massive population.But it's not because of their low population that they live naked in huts, it's because they live naked in huts that their population remain so low.
>>16407613fuck your white race bitch
>>16406781>18% of population in extreme poverty>41% of population without access to electricityYes, it's a failureImpressive by black standards =/= objectively impressiveBotswana is the Great Mosque of Djenne of black countries
>>16407627It's objectively not a failed state. A failed state would be somewhere like Afghanistan during their civil wars.
>>16407634Failed state is some UN jargonA country can be failure without falling in that particular made up category with very specific criteriaHere's the official list of "failed states". Tons of shitholes are missing.
let's say italy colonizes argentina before the spanish. what changes?
>>16405800As opposed to the literal spear chucking stone age ooga booga to whom the british lost in the zulu wars?
>>16405395Italy didn't exist at the time. Do you mean some specific Italian state, such as the papacy or Venice?
>>16407182Venice would be the most suited candidate since it was arguably the richest country in italy. Although they had very limited colonial ambitions that were swiftly crushed by the turks, and so relied more on trades for their income, much like the dutch. Something must happen to unite italy centuries in advance. For me maybe the ottoman threat would be enough to create at least some sort of league, which would eventually devolve into a federation. This would effectively create an italian state by the time of the battle of Lepanto, 300 years before the real time unification.
>>16405395Pasta argentina.
>>16405395Argentina didnt existed before, argentina was created after the spanish. You cant colonize something that does not exist
>Oh, and by the way, God says I have to sleep with all of your wivesHow come nobody ever raises an eyebrow when cult leaders do this part?

>>16407596He founded that Church of England cult.
>>16407438He founded that Branch Davidian cult.
Why do so many deities have the personality and values of a vapid BPD whore? Who is this even meant to appeal to?
>>16406910If we accept that gods are kind of dicks, the world makes much more sense.Why doesn't the all loving Christian god stop war? - free will I guessWhy doesn't Odin stop war? - Because he needs men for Valholl, dumbfuck
Some ancient autist from the forest tribe picked the wrong mushrooms, and had an interesting dream. His great-cousin from the hill tribe did the same after hearing of these mushrooms, and saw a contradicting vision, and then they went to war over which one is in the right.
>>16406910Think about force of nature
>>16407238vgh we must retvrn, schizos have lost their rightful place by the side of the king. I could have been a respected member of society now I work the lowest of jobs
Because Nature itself is chaotic and unpredictable. Even now with modern meteorological technology the weatherman on TV can get things completely wrong, predicting it will be sunny when it rains. It makes sense that the stories of the Gods and Goddesses that represent Nature would be equally chaotic.
White genocide is not real.

>>16407304None of the countries in the below picture were founded by Natives. They were more like fauna than people.
>>16406418Shut the fuck up kike.>>16406448I'm Latino and I can tell you that zionists and kikes are hated here. He's a Jew pretending not to be a Jew, a tale as old as time.
>>16406413That's why there's only been three non white heads of state in the core Anglosphere right?
>>16407512Ireland, Britain, Canada and the U.S. all have non-white leaders.
Can an anthropologist explain this meme to me? Who are these ethnic groups? I only recognize Yoruba which refers to a Nigerian culture right?
>>16406996>hates blacks>uses their slang

>>16407006I said I don't care about their different ethnicities retard
