LOTF Posted January 1 Posted January 1 The thread title is misleading lmao I thought she fully had gone white supremacist but she just sounds naive and dumb
Sannie Posted January 1 Posted January 1 The white-leftist-to-nazi pipeline is so common. All it takes is a nazi boyfriend or someone wronging you and bam they change. 1
Pendulum Posted January 2 Posted January 2 On 12/31/2023 at 11:23 PM, Cruel Summer said: Can someone just, like, time travel with this Grimes and do an exchange for pre-COVID Grimes? I know she’s never been perfect, but something happened with this girl after Miss Anthropocene released and it’s been getting weirder and more uncomfortable ever since, especially in the last year. At best this is well-intentioned but incredibly out of touch and tone-deaf, at worst this is just the same intentionally evasive and generalized language used by racists for ages, like “All Lives Matter.” Plus, as an added bonus, if we swap the Grimeses, we’d get to pretend I Wanna Be Software never existed, because if that’s what the music is going to sound like from now on... now, I Wanna Be Software is a bop and a half, ntm on it babes
mons†er Posted January 2 Posted January 2 there is no such thing as white culture, hence why white people steal everything from other cultures. OT: Grimes has always been off her rocker. 1

I'm not sure if I would describe an ancap who went from dreaming of a primitive hunter-gatherer society to then dreaming of space anarchism with no governments a leftist!
TipToe Posted January 2 Posted January 2 Pseudo cultured elite is such a disgrace, the way she talks gibberish with so much confidence is so she and Elon are truly a match.
AMIT Posted January 2 Posted January 2 this girl is so ******* dumb and cluelessly racist and yet she really thinks she's some enlightened genius the longer she continues to spout this type of cringe nonsense, the harder it gets to see it as just naivety and not malicious 1
BaddieBarb Posted January 3 Posted January 3 I don't see anything wrong with what she said...People are looking for an excuse to be mad.
CaptainMusic Posted January 3 Posted January 3 (edited) Being proud of “white culture” is weird as ****. I wouldn’t even say im proud of “black culture” as my culture (British Caribbean) is completely different to African Americans, Africans, Afro-Latinos. She should’ve just said she’s proud of her heritage/country not that, dumbass. Edited January 3 by CaptainMusic 2
What_A_Mess Posted January 3 Posted January 3 Don’t see anything wrong with being proud of one’s culture every one else is, why can’t she
Letemtalk Posted January 3 Posted January 3 On 1/1/2024 at 4:28 AM, X~MoviePoP said: The **** is white culture....there's no such thing as black culture either. Theres different cultures based on where your from..not overall because of your skin color. Different cultures have different experiences. She sounds dumb In the US and other parts of the world where there was slavery, many black people lost their original national and regional culture and many don't know which country their ancestors came from. So they talk about black culture in America. This is quite different from the situation for white people in many western countries, where most people know whether their ancestors were English, Polish or Italian. When you look at something like Alcohol consumption, this glosses over regional cultural differences . For example, in Europe there are cultural differences between the beer drinking, wine drinking and vodka drinking countries https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol_preferences_in_Europe Culture is made up of many different components, such as language, cuisine, religion, art/music and many other factors. When someone wants to make it about whiteness, you'd have to wonder why. 4

KatyPrismSpirit Posted January 3 Posted January 3 Just now, KMO said: It’s like saying “Asian culture” Thats still a term. Its just a collective of various different cultures. Doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.

I suppose I meant, there are lots of predominantly white nations. “White culture” encompasses places such as the US, Australia, Norway, amongst many others. There may be some overlap, but to paint them with the same brush is ignorant and inaccurate. Also, I’m not here for a “gotcha” moment or to berate anyone Happy to be corrected but that’s how I see it and part of why people are taking an issue with that Grimes is saying.

I think people mostly took a issue with the fact she said she takes “pride” in white culture which is odd, since white culture encapsulates the collective of various cultures of predominantly white nations.. and since she is a white canadian, it doesn’t really make sense for her to say this. You can’t take pride in cultures that don’t belong to you. 1
John Slayne Posted January 3 Posted January 3 i don't think she has malicious intent, she's just genuinely not very clever. i remember when she was on that panel talking about feminism and she was so out of her depth... she's punching way above her league, but so is Elon so i can see why they were together 1

When someone wants to make it about whiteness, you'd have to wonder why. it's a nazi dog-whistle to put white people in opposition to PoC. in reality, like you said, there are many cultures in predominantly white countries but the goal of nazism is to dominate (and eventually eradicate) non-white people, so they have to create a myth of 'white culture' as an essential experience and identity that unites the white race, even though in reality people can be of different races and experience the same culture.

James_Joint Posted January 4 Posted January 4 So white people don’t have culture and also cannot embrace other cultures because that’s stealing, so I’m genuinely asking as a white gay man, what can we do?
