- bananabiscuit 6y agoI’m no dog whistler. I am very clearly and unabashedly making the assertion that there probably are benefits to having homogeneous culture. If you have any arguments against that statement itself, please make them instead of attacking my character. It’s pretty anti-intellectual to shut down some hypothesis just because you don’t want it to be true. Please also note two things that I am NOT saying: I am not stating that there are no benefits to a heterogenous culture, and I am also not saying that one type of culture is necessarily better than the other in all respects.
- random314 6y agoEasy man. I just proposed a hypothesis just like you did. Why are you fuming? If you have any arguments against that statement itself, please make them instead of attacking my character. It’s pretty anti-intellectual to shut down some hypothesis just because you don’t want it to be true.
- bananabiscuit 6y agoI am sorry for fuming a little. I’m just sad that there’s topics that are not really possible to have any kind of rational discussion about just because they might lead to un-comfortable conclusions or even if they sound like they might be too close to “forbidden thoughts” (even though they are not, I don’t think anything I said was actually “racist” and deserved your dog-whistling comment)
