They brainwashed people into thinking culture is about whether you eat battered cod or hot dogs for lunch. That's not what culture is. Culture is refinement of the mind. There's no such thing as "German" culture or "Russian" culture. There's no such thing as "my culture" and "your culture". Culture is culture. Cultures are not equal. Pop culture is not culture. Pop culture is the opposite of culture. There's no such thing as "your language" or "your religion". Language and religion are ideas, and nobody owns ideas. To think that a language is "my language" and another language is "your language" or that a religion is "my religion" and another religion is "your religion" is as retarded as an Estonian saying that the bench press is his exercise, and him telling a German to stick to doing deadlifts. (The bench press was invented in Estonia and the deadlift in Germany.) Or like a Greek person thinking that the Pythagorean theorem is Greek. Language is nothing more than ideas and muscle movements.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Culture_industrythis is not culturehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d4QnalIHlVcthis is culturehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ruV4V5mPwW8

>>536564459>Culture is refinement of the mind.How are they going to make a profit off that concept? How will they keep the green line going up? Think of the GDP!
Books, fiction and nonfiction, are an important part of white European culture. Unfortunately, browns don't have that, so they focus on food and pop music instead.
>>536564592culture is antithetical to utility, ie profithttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KAp8hX0U-jw
>>536564459>>536564592>>536564720>>536564724Here's your culture, you gay white vaccinated urbanite faggot
>>536564720I just said there's no such thing as white European culture or brown culture. Learn to fucking address a point. The top layer of this pyramid is as alien to 4chan as another galaxy.
>>536564770not an argument, now fuck off retard
>>536564816Over 90% of the books in the library are by white people. I'd say that's white culture. It's certainly not brown. The library is the best place to get away from brown people.
Food, language, religion, and music are all part of culture. It makes no difference if nobody owns these things.
>>536564459bAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA it's that underage swede again who loves to suck german cocks and calls people uncultured swine unironically. You're my favourite lolcow, dude! Come on, say something funny

You are sharing the ideas of the Frankfurt School is that their name?
>>536565275Are you a cute swedetwink?
Culture and pop culture are opposites. The purpose of culture is to refine the spirit, to elevate you above the flesh. The purpose of pop culture is the polar opposite, to debase the spirit, to push you down out of the spirit realm and into the flesh.In the flesh there is yours and mine.In the spirit there is no such thing.Think of mathematics. This is the spirit realm, ie the realm of pure ideas. Think of the concept of an equilateral triangle. It's pretty retarded to think of the concept of an equilateral triangle as yours or mine, European or Asian, even belonging to Earth or another galaxy.Four out of the seven liberal arts are mathematics; arithmetic, geometry, music and astronomy. It's called "the seven LIBERAL arts" because it LIBERATES you, by making you move from the realm of the flesh into the realm of pure ideas, ie the spirit realm.>The liberal arts, in contrast, teach one how to live; they train the faculties and bring them to perfection; they enable a person to rise above his material environment to live an intellectual, a rational, and therefore a free life in gaining truth. Jesus Christ said, "You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free" (John 8:32).Pop culture pushes you out of the realm of pure ideas, and pop culture therefore is not culture.But I'm wasting my breath here, casting pearls before swine, you all are incapable of thought. Stroking your cock is all you know how to do.
>>536565711I agree with you cutie
>>536564459I like my dogs hot
>>536564459>Culture is refinement of the mind.But certain refinements of the mind are passed down, not only through generations, but accross national boundaries. In fact its a funny thing, that if you follow the history of the development of langauge, it very closely mirrors the genetic spread of various races. Which is why ancient Greek and Roman culture is passed down through European culture. What he says >>536564720 is very true, and (partially) defines that European culture. Culture most certainly also includes cuisine, though, like everything else, that is not the ONLY defining feature. Alot of culture is simply the "way a people think", and that is shared, and comes from generations of that same community. It is often closely tied to the land. The cuisine aspect of culture is also tied to the land and often the other animals that exist there. The land also determines the types of economies that function, and that too can lead to cultural adaptations. All of these things, cuisine, economy, literarture, artforms, dances, etc ... add up to a culture. the rituals they perform, the holidays they celebrate, the manner of the celebrations ... that is culture.These "refinements of the mind" that you refer to are the culmination of these factors. You should read "the Golden Bough". It is, in part, a discussion of how menial work turns into ritual, which turns into culture. How ancient tribes existed in different climates and geographies, which created different survival strategies. these strategies turn into menial labour done daily, which turn into rituals, which become religions, and finally into cultures. these strategies create languages and stories, which turn into myths and legends. All of this culminates into a culture.
>>536564459Its because the majority of the brown world is obssesed with food and yes that includes most of not all of asia
>>536564459I eat steamed hot dogs at night, they taste so good. This is the fella that sells them
>>536564459>nobody owns ideasFuck off commie.
>>536565860You missed the point entirely, retard. The key word is "yours". This subject is too deep for you brainlets. Keep being a parrot. Keep never having any actual thoughts.
>>536565711>It's pretty retarded to think of the concept of an equilateral triangle as yours or mine, European or Asian,and yet someone first thought of an equalateral triangle, and defined the mathematics that governs its proportions. And so that lesson was first taught amongst the Greeks, and so became their culture.I think perhaps what you dont understand is that the whole world is adopting a sinle monoculture, and that culture is distinctily European. We won the "culture wars" long ago ... the world is still desperately trying to deal with it.Everybody wants to be just like us (and thats, as Tolkien pointed out, a sad thing). Japanese people dont wear Kimonos anymore, they dress in suits. Every country, even North Korea, calls itself a "republic" ... though they scarcely resemble one.And everybody, everywhere you go, speaks English. We won the culture wars 150 years ago, and the world is still struling to deal with it. All of our ideas, about justice, government, science, ... even our stories.Why do you think they keep casting Africans in Snow white? Because the Africans dont have anything that even approaches our levels of literary genius. All over the world, people micmic Europeans ... WHY? We dont force them too. They CHOOSE our culture, of there own free will. Because its better, thats why. I remember watching the colour revolution in Eygypt, some years ago. And a poor muslim man was saying how they are takin back their country, and thier culture. He was yelling and rioting. But there he was, wearing Levis jeans, adidas running shoes and a "Coca-cola" T-shirt ... speaking English! His culture is long gone, and he doesnt even know it. Its too bad in some ways.
>>536566060Keep thinking you own an idea, without presenting any argument for it. I just laugh at your delusion.
Why was this the only book ever written in Spanish?
>>536566351>Keep thinking you own an idea, without presenting any argument for it.Go google what a patent is then fucking kill yourself you COMPLETE retard.The fact that you will confidently spout airy-fairy bullshit like this and then demand explicit explanations of concepts that are commonly understand by modern people only betrays you bad faith, you time-wasting mongoloid idiot.Also language is not an "idea", it's is a tool for communication and thinking. English is the superior tool for thinking over all others, which allowed it's creators to dominate the world. This is why you are currently using it to seethe at me.
>>536566295>And everybody, everywhere you go, speaks English.No, they don't. It's a much smaller percentage than you think, and of those that know English a much larger percentage is much less proficient than you think. The world is not /pol/ just because many flags are seen here. Maybe learn what affirming the consequent is. Maybe if you weren't a monolingual you wouldn't be so fucking retarded. English is the language of brainrot, ie the opposite of culture, German and French are languages of culture. You don't know a fucking thing about culture. Dumbed down, uncultured, brainrotted. Shut up.
>>536564459>be me>have idea>tell no oneOP:>nooo, stop owning ideas! You must share them so my grifter ass can exploit them!Go DIRECTLY to gulag.
>>536566632>No, they don't. It's a much smaller percentage than you thinkEnglish is the lingua franca of the world, keep seething commie retard.>>536566632>English is the language of brainrotLMAOSee my previous reply. English is the greatest thinking tool ever devises, it enabled it's creators to conquer the world and this is why you are using it to seethe at everyone who isn't a retarded commie like you. You are a fucking MORON.
>>536566125Im sorry shitskin. Your culture sucks. It sucks because it was useless, not to me ... but to you! You rejected it, not me. No white person ever forced you to embrace our way of life, in fact many of us wish you would fuck off. And now ... that you have rejected your own culture, and wish to appropriate ours, you need to explain it to yourself, to lie to yourself ... that somehow, "culture" is "universal" and belongs to no one. That the Greeks didnt invent triangle theories ... that somehow these ideas are "universal" concepts. Well they certainly are now! now that everyone realizes Pythagorus was exactly right about triangles. But thats a little late to the show, as we say. Take a look around. European culture is embraced by the world, not because we forced it on them, but because they chose it. They chose it because it was better. They chose to wear pants instead of dresses, that buttons and zippers worked better then belts. They chose a langauge that expresses the modern world, because their ancient lanuages didnt have words for things like telephones.Your demands above for a reasonable debate (>>536564816) , and your follow up with an ad hominem attack (>>536566125) , expose your lack of culture. thats how I already know brown hands typed that. Your pathetic attacks only prove me right. Your muslim culture was built on slavery, murder and robbery. Its why it has produced nothing of value. Its why you still think you can bully people. But a European would know it is the height of cowardice to insult a man who cannot punch you in the face.
>>536566715ignoramus5% of the world’s population speak English as a native language.Only 15% of all people in the world excluding native English speakers speak English as a non-native language.So roughly 1 out of 7 people who are not native English speakers speak English as an additional language. Many of these know very little English.6 out of 7 people in the world who aren't native English speakers don't speak English at all.
>>536566812didn't read, you don't even know what ad hominem is, fucking ignoramus
>>536566855>Only 15%>Errm, excuse me, only 18% of the global population speak English, isn't that a small number? See, English isn't that wide spread after all!The next most widespread language is mandarin at 13%, you bad faith, obfuscating retard faggot.Fuck off back to plebbit where you came from and take your spacing with you.
>>536564592
>>536566981Out of those 15 or 18 percent something like 90% could not understand what's said in this thread. They know "good morning", "how are you". Literally any fucking level of proficiency is included in that number. kys incurious utilitarian
>>536566632oh mohamed, what are we going to do with you. You could join us you know. You could join the 21st century, and explore the stars. >English is the language of brainrot, ie the opposite of culture, German and FrenchLOLEnglish, German, French (and spanish, portugeuse (now there is a beautiful language), they are all romance lanuages, because they come from Roman and Greek. The really ancient languages of Europe are long gone. Celtic, Welsh, Norwegian, Saxon. Very few speak them anymore. You see, us Europeans lost a culture war 2000 years ago to the Romans, who incidentally, had adopted much of the Greek.However, I was trained in Latin, perhaps you would prefer to converse in Latin? I have an interesting Latin word of the day on my desk .... "interficio" .... "to lay waste" "kill and destroy" .,.. its whats coming for you and your muslim friends, when the world finally gets sick of your bullshit, your piracy, murder and terrorism and slavery. Too many of us have put up with your brag and your violence for far too long.
>>536567093>Out of those 15 or 18 percent something like 90% could not understand what's said in this thread.And? What kind of relevance does that have to anything at all? What even is your point? That if English is "only" spoken by 18% of the population then it's somehow not a good language? Well congratulations you stupid faggot, the same nonsense argument could used for ANY language because that 18% is a bigger number than has been achieved by any other language in the world, as has already been covered. Why are you so fucking stupid? Do you have brain problems? Are you a 65 IQ shitjeet? Is that why you fail so spectacularly at basic argumentation?Fuck off retard, I've done you.
>>536567093>kysId have too, because you certainly arent capable of doing it. Why dont you go back to rapin kids and murdering defenceless sailors, its what your good at after all.See ya later, mohamed.
>>536567093Oh I see, you're trying to pretend those 18% of people that speak English do not actually speak English. Because... you said so, I guess?Fuck off bad faith retard.
OP is a jew pretending to be retarded to waste your time
