Seriously fuck niggers and SJWs
Blacks haven't written any good books not about muh oppression and SJWs just help support shit authors.
Seriously should blacks even be allowed on /lit/ if they never developed a written language?

Also, only 1 fucking written language from the entire sub-Saharan African continent? lol

I'm more intuitive disgust than actual racism, I get the same with abos and gypsies. Kind of like how people don't want to touch spiders without considering them necessarily lesser animals.

She looks like a longhaired tay zonday.

>>7042428
>>7042461

It's more so that you come in like a gaggle of screaming infants and still act shocked when people don't take you seriously enough to engage you in conversation. You're practically spewing memes. Have you ever even spoken about the issues that you at least pretend to care so much about with real people? In real life?

>>7042495
>Classifying human beings by the most superficial attribute they possess.

I have known many more intelligent women from India and thereabouts than I have from the US. I find her exotic features and willingness to think critically about things attractive. You can keep your pure, blonde, Aryan waifu.

This thread is a clusterfuck, but it does remind me that I need to read The Secret History.

>>7042486
>She is a fox.

holy fuck anon
have you considered a career in comedy?

>>7042501
People can't help the way look, but they can change and refine their souls, the inner person. Thats what you should find attractive. You would know this if you started with the Greeks.

>>7042528
You're assuming that these types even read

>>7042514
Yeah, I was a business major taking a sociology course and every single day I would start a huge debate by pointing out the pseudo-Commies fallacies. I got an amazing amount of shit from it from every single try hard SJW faggot in the class, but even my borderline Marxist teacher respected me and gave me an A for being so bold in one of the most hostile communities to ever exist.

>>7042528
>People can't help the way look, but they can change and refine their souls, the inner person.
Silly platitude. People can actually change their appearance a lot more than they can change their neurological make up. People can buy new tits easier than a new personality. Aside from psychiatric drugs there isn't a whole lot we can do about that yet.

The Greeks celebrated physical beauty and were appalled by ugliness, by the way.

>>7042537
>these types
So people can't have preferences without being ignorant cunts?

Sounds silly to me.

>>7042528
Not that anon but there's literally no way you live by that idea. It doesn't matter if you're smart,well-read and funny; if you're a ugly 0/10 neckbeard then no one will want to engage with you and find your 'inner soul' attractive.

It's probably why no one really gives a fuck about starving africans but go up in arms over a fucking dead lion.

>>7042540
>one of the most hostile communities to ever exist.

You can't be real.

>>7042550
Lions have more inner beauty than humans Africans tbh.

>>7042577

>>7042561
Yeah because I'm sure they don't get edgy white guys out there doing it every single time they host an event.

>>7042577
the dubs god called to me and I answered his calling.
Come, my children, let us pray for dubs future and past. From now on and until the end of the thread, every dub is an absolute truth.

>>7042316
>can you recommend me a book written by a black that doesn't deal with muh oppression I would actually like to see such a rare example
I would also like to see this, I recently realized that I've never read a book by a black author.

>>7042591
If dubs, white people are the best

>>7042589
probably not, the thing that defines this group of people is that they've never actually endured any hardship or actual race inequality so to speak of.

>>7042586
Its simply people who claim to read literature, but still haven't discovered that ethnic distinctions are meaningless in determining a person's intrinsic value.

>>7042597
There's DuBois, but he's a little different. He says that only 10% of black people are worth anything intellectually.

>>7042514
>speaking with normies irl or anywhere for that matter
>expecting an intelligent conversation
But yes I actually have talked about this with people in "real life"
Most however are like you and uninterested in having conversations that might go against their dogma.
Is conversation with others really that time-consuming?
You are already wasting time responding to my posts so you might as well engage substantively. Someone might even gain something out of the conversation.
Also still want a recommendation on a book written by a black author not about muh oppression

>>7042600
FIRST COMMANDMENT
THE THING THAT DEFINES THIS GROUP OF PEOPLE IS THAT THEY'VE NEVER ACTUALLY ENDURED ANY HARDSHIP OR ACTUAL RACE INEQUALITY SO TO SPEAK OF

ACCEPT THIS INTO YOUR HEART

>>7042601
Ethnicity and intellect are absolutely 100% related, denying that is denying science

>>7042603
Quote or GTFO. Don't make claims like that without sources.

dubs god i pray to you

>>7042603
Sort of a misrepresentation of the "talented 10% theory". He actually says that 10% of any race are worth anything intellectually.

"The Negro race, like all races, is going to be saved by its exceptional men. The problem of education, then, among Negroes must first of all deal with the Talented Tenth; it is the problem of developing the Best of this race that they may guide the Mass away from the contamination and death of the Worst.”

>>7042609
You asked for it, SJW shitelord

http://www.yale.edu/glc/archive/1148.htm

>>7042607
Show me some sources, then. Please, demonstrate this to me scientifically.

>>7042576
>This is so asinine it isn't worth responding to.
You mean it's true and you have no response.

>>7042540
>I was a business major
lol

>>7042621

>>7042618
Did I put a bee in your bonnet? Perhaps now you will reconsider being a retarded Stormfag, and mend your ways.

>>7042627
here come the graphs

I would prefer dubs

>>7042623
Yeah, that way I can expand my knowledge leisurly on a comfortable salary instead of being a struggling humanities major waiter who is poor, starving, and brainwashed by his Marxist professors.

>>7042627
What exactly does this prove? It's data, removed from its context. You probably just pulled this off of a paper without reading the rest of the study.

>>7042635
yeah but we got dubs

>>7042636
he found it on page 22 so it must be true

>>7042636
It's the mean SAT scores by race

dubs mang

>>7042627
White Portuguese score higher than Asian Chinese in Macao, and the three Indians in my graduating class finished 1st, 8th, and 9th in our coursework respectively.

I do buy into the theory that some races are biologically engineered to be better at some things, but test scores aren't a particularly useful measure of that.

>>7042622
Is someone's personality fixed? Are their opinions fixed for life? Or can people change, and reconsider the things they once believed, and become better people?

>>7042649
i think you mean DUBS scores right?

>>7042653
everyone can change, sometime they've got dubs, sometimes they've got trips, sometimes nothing

>>7042649
Okay, so African Americans more poorly on standardized tests. How are you certain these differences are rooted in biological capabilities, and not simply cultural or economic factors?

>>7042652
Indians are extremely smart unless they come from one of the lower castes

no one changes their mind or questions their ideas when browsing 4chan
dubs confirm

>>7042666
Oh shit.

>>7042607
Regardless of whether or not you believe in a correlation between ethnicity and intellect, attributing said intellect to value, worth---or whatever the fuck you want to call it---is dependent on individual perspective; it cannot be considered intrinsic outside of this framework.

I wonder, though, why anyone would ever wish to confine themselves to such a limited view and perceive intellect as a more worthy trait than, say, altruism.

>>7042663
Because the SATs are aptitude tests, not MUH CULTURAL OPPRESSION HIERARCHY tests

>>7042653
I'm not saying it's fixed, just that it can't be easily changed deliberately. Obviously people change over time, but it's not like you can wake up tomorrow and decide to be a happy like you could decide to get new tits and a better nose.

If you are so magnanimous that you are willing to accept even if they look shitty because they can't help it, you should accept them if they act shitty as well since they can do even less about that. The brain and the nose are both just body parts, but the former is more complex and less easily changed. So you should have more patience with people for their brains than their noses, since they're relatively powerless over them.

>>7042666


Also hail santa!

>>7042666
>dubs confirm
I'm spooped, boys

Mods, close the thread, we're done

>>7042663
>and not simply cultural or economic factors?
poor whites outscore rich blacks on the SATs.

Blacks are just dumb tbh

>>7042681
>>>/lgbt/

>>7042675
So, it is impossible for a person to deliberately change their opinions, or alter their worldview in any way?

>>7042673
There are studies that suggest environmental factors---like, MUH CULTURAL OPPRESSION---can affect the genes passed from parent to child.

>>7042665
Two Vaisyas and the daughter of a Sudras on scholarship if I recall correctly. They all were of the darker Dravidian variety.

I'm perfectly willing to accept that the American Negro was essentially bred to be an intellectually stunted pack animal but I'm also willing to equivocate Whites, Indians, Asians, and Mesoamericans on an equitable level because they all were able to achieve large-scale architectural endeavors and other facets of culture.

>>7042697
Oh, you mean like when a black mom smokes a fuck ton of crack while she's pregnant with a kid? Yeah, that definitely could effect its genetics. But it's white peoples fault she's smoking crack in the first place, right?

>>7042697
post studies.

>>7042682
Again, another statement made without any basis or support by fact.

>>7042682
And what of CULTURAL factors?

>>7042688
I would say that if it is possible for a person to deliberately do anything, one's appearance would be more easy to alter than one's character.

>>7042709
Like the predisposition to commit crimes or do drugs or have unprotected sex or what kind of cultural factors are you talking about? Can't blame the whites for everything

>>7042704
>But it's white peoples fault she's smoking crack in the first place, right?

>>7042708
All right, here's the graph. Y'know a bit of googling would show you all you need to know about the white/black IQ gap.

>>7042709
The nefarious black culture is due to nefarious black genes.

American ghetto culture is simply african tribalism transported from the congolese jungle to the concrete jungle.

cool, /lit/ got invaded again

>>7042712
No, of being non-white in a racist as fuck country.

Racist rhetoric and conjecture. All of it.

>>7042727
Honestly, the very notion of a person having actual control over himself implies some sort of free will that I'm not comfortable with.

I'd rather say that nobody can help anything and that nothing is anybody's fault, including everything they do themselves.

>>7042728
Is that actually the argument you're going to go with? Oh wait, you didn't have much of a choice, did you? From the day you were born, you were destined to make that shitty, terrible argument. You had no control. You just posted it.

>>7042739
Racist, yes. Conjecture, no.

Look kiddo, reality is racist. Different tribes of humans evolved seperately in different environments for tens of thousands of years. There is no reason whatsoever to believe that their brains all evolved exactly the same way.

>>7042724
These SAT score charts don't prove anything the more post them. There is no evidence that there is a difference on a biological level in inherent ability.

>>7042751
>this construct infers this fact
>not conjecture

>>7042748
You honestly believe people are free to choose what they do? Do you believe they are unmoved movers? Literally gods? Because that is what free will implies, the possibility of decision making outside of causation.

>>7042753
cool argument buddy

>>7042744
What about Free Will makes you uncomfortable?

>>7042752
>These SAT score charts don't prove anything the more post them
They prove that socioeconomic background is not responsible for the black/white SAT score gap.

That's already a big hypothesis out of the window.

>There is no evidence that there is a difference on a biological level in inherent ability.
Actually there is, the studies are called transracial adoption studies. They studied black kids and white kids adopted into upper middle class white families and compared their IQs. Blacks still had a lower IQ.

>>7042753
It's not antisemitism. But a study about holocaust trauma funded by a holocaust institute? Puh-leeze.

Anyways, it's got plenty of criticism by non-antisemites :

Just close it out, people. Don't even bother. Neither are trying to make any convincing points.

There are plenty of books and studies if you're interested. You could start with reading the classic : "The Bell Curve"

>>7042756
>dismissing the truth bhflkjfhofvbweflhE

What truth? Jesus christ, he literally made a series of judgements and stated them as fact.

>>7042772
Anecdotal evidence doesn't constitute proof, anon.

>>7042764
It's the year 0. Rome is at its peak and MC Jesus was just born in a giant city. Rome is a giant, advanced civilization, built by cultured people. Niggers are running around in tribes in Africa speaking oogooo boogoo to each other.

1700 years later, Rome has fallen and after a dark period of an inferior civilization, cities have begun to reimerge around the world. None of them were made by niggers. The niggers are still running around in tribes saying Oogoo boogoo.

They're captured and made into slaves. They have no intellectual facets whatsoever, because for the past 10,000 years they've done nothing but hunt gazelles and eat monkeys. Do you really expect their genetics to change in 300 years if they haven't changed otherwise in 10,000?

>>7042768
It's incompatibility with how life seems to function. There is no reason to believe in magic, really.

>>7042768
The fact that neuroscience seems to suggest it's an illusion.

But that year never existed.

>>7042783
Since this is a literature board, this is an interesting talk. Yes, it's from a white nationalist convention, but it's interesting nonetheless.

It's a talk about the structure of african languages. African languages are incredibly simple and lack any capacity for conveying abstract meaning. This is a reflection of the lack of abstract thought found among people of african descent.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WAoNhacojmM

>>7042772
>Not being a racist bastard makes me an SJW.
>>7042771
The studies also probably don't consider African American cultural bias.

>>7042801
You're not a racist, but you are vehemently stating that African Americans are culturally inferior...

>>7042801
>The studies also probably don't consider African American cultural bias
The babies are adopted at birth. What culture bias are you referring to?

And anyways, I'm sick of people saying "hurr durr it's culture". How about you PROVE that "cultural bias" or whatever can affect SAT scores.

Japanese and Korean americans don't seem to be suffering too much from cultural bias.

>>7042796
>Yes, it's from a white nationalist convention, but it's interesting nonetheless.

That sounds like an extremely reliable source, almost as good as a hardcore Nazi for Tanakh scholarship.

>>7042783
>MC Jesus

that reminds me: why don't all the indie kids who like white rap give MC 900ft Jesus his props?

>>7042796
>African languages are incredibly simple and lack any capacity for conveying abstract meaning
Bullshit. There are literally 100s of African languages. You're telling me you've examined them all and found them all simple and without reference points for abstraction?

>>7042783
>1550 BCE
>Rome is a marsh on the Tiber inhabitated by pre-literate tribals in tents

>>7042796
>White Nationalist Convention.
>Completely unbiased Science.

>>7042811
>That sounds like an extremely reliable source
It's decently reliable. He goes into racist tangents towards the end but the first half is purely linguistics. You can skip the second half.

Just because facts are stated at a nationalist convention doesn't make them false.

>>7042815
I didn't study any of them. The speaker in the video spent a great part of his life teaching in Africa so I think he might have an idea or two.

He gives some pretty interesting examples using the Zulu language. For instance, the Zulus have no words for "space", "time", "future", or "past".

>>7042808
You don't think there is a cultural dissonance that exists in transracial adoptees? I'd imagine black kids raised "as white" by white families probably have all sorts of fucked up identity issues.

>>7042783
lol.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_of_Aksum
Now He'll try to tell us that the inhabitants of Axum were white.

>>7042816
The difference is that the invading Latins who settled on the river Tiber assimilated the surrounding etruscan civilization and built an even greater one.

Blacks have shown no such adaptation. In contrast, the Japanese have, for instance.

>>7042818
Facts are facts, whether they're spoken at a white nationalist convention or a brony cosplay convention.

Are you telling me that you're so close-minded that you're unwilling to even give it a try?

>>7042816
None of these races are Negroid. Nope, not even nubians.

>>7042826
So he has one example and you feel from that single example you can claim "all african languages" are like that. Gotcha. That's called "generalizing from the specific".

Check out the Azande language for a counter example. You'll find they're quite capable of abstract thought. Read some Evans-Pritchard to see what I mean.

>>7042829
Yet asian kids adopted into white families have a high IQ.

Why does "cultural dissonance" and other cultural effects always seem to exclusively target blacks?

>>7042833
I don't want to be that guy, but Axum started out as a Yemenite colony. It's pretty obvious from looking at present day highlander ethiopians that there was a significant west eurasian gene flow around the time of the appearance of the first civilizations in Ethiopia.

>>7042837
And they didn't live in an equatorial rainforest either

>>7042844
>So he has one example and you feel from that single example you can claim "all african languages" are like that. Gotcha. That's called "generalizing from the specific".
No, that's just the example I remembered. There are plenty of examples in the video.
