I'm not sure how much more vitriolic you can be than saying white people are evil and locusts

You're not wrong from a "Protecting and maintaining the site" perspective.

By the same token, he's not wrong from a global perspective, about how badly "The West" or "White people" for short, have gone against the principles "we" hold up as a major component and driver of, "our" supposed superiority and material successes.

The US is speedrunning its fall from the peak of global hegemony. Sacrificing Lionsmane8 on the altar of... any of our supposed values, won't change much less repair this. It might work to distract us from our obligations to addressing it meaningfully however.

@MentORPHEUS It survives because the "opposite" culture is observably worse. A viable counter culture is the only remedy, but they rarely arise absent massive societal upheaval. Now, Elon seems to think he might be it.......but..... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Anyway....

@Vermillion-Rx I'm as white as white comes, which is relevant to what follows.

The user in question apparently lives in the general region, thus naturally would by default feel greater kinship to and empathy for the people of the nations there. For the past few years, "white people" namely US and to a lesser extent UK associated, have ramped up colonialist abuses of powerless peoples in that region, coming to a head with the US armed and backed, unilateral surprise attack upon Iran. The pretext for this was Iran's supposed imminent development of nuclear weapons. Western mainstream news and official policy positions, have completely and in grave injustice, have ignored that Iran was open and cooperative about inspections, even after Trump unilaterally withdrew from the JCPOA. Iran was still complying with that in good faith, only to get royally fucked over and backstabbed, by Mossad compromising the IAEA and using that supposedly nonpartisan agency to harvest targeting information to assassinate Iranian scientists in their homes, along with dozens to hundreds of their innocent neighbors many of them children.

In the face of this fuckery and the righteous indignation of the user, I saw people here taunting him with the coping-strategies of supposed "Western superiority". A community founded on the philosophy of seeing through simulations and simulacra, weaponizing same against a longtime member of the same community. A community that treats censorship in the name of "Identity Politics" as antithetical to and polar opposite of our very self-image and a practice of our cultural enemies, invoking it as justification of censoring/banning said member.

It's been building for a long time, the "right wing" culture of low metacognitive Dunning-Kruger expression of self-righteousness. Donald Trump marks the apotheosis of this culture. Not feeling personally bought-in to this zeitgeist, from my perspective, I see a need for serious self-reflection on the level of unaware adoption of the values and irrational belief in, an empire in the process of self-destruction at the end of its era.

Bottom line: I can see how, from a global perspective, that "White people" racial-superiored way too close to the sun lately, and that by objective standards, "everyone else" is not wrong for calling "white people" out on this. We "white people" would be better served looking in the mirror and at our core values vs recent behavior, than lashing out in weak ego-defensive behaviors that do nothing in the long term to even hold, much less improve, our ACTUAL place in the population of planet Earth.

@Lionsmane8

Although wider discussions are allowed, and happen casually, the red pill started and is still centered around sexual strategy. There's a common core of agreement on that. There is no consensus for a whole lot of other things, neither a requirement to reach any. It's not a place to let off steam about other issues.
