And you did not know this when I first started talking to you? I kind of thought you would ignore me, I was basically content talking into a vacuum and just putting it out there. Apparently I mimic a Tone Troll, but I don't plan to irritate people or incense them, it is just how I talk to them. Respect is earned, you know.
I used to be a very poor "left-hand path" follower, but if I had to do any curses or something like that it would be rebuke curses. I did not trust myself with the destruction spells because I was too unstable in my emotions. So that is a compliment, thank you.
If you did not bring up Nazis, I wouldn't be here. That's your fault.

Ya, I knew you're German, and I can't be any more clear than I have been about the fact that I'm talking about what these particular people were saying they were going to do, not who they are or the tenets of Neo-Naziism. I said "whites protecting whites because they are white". I said that to isolate the variable I'm intending to reference. It doesn't matter whether they are Neo-Nazis or a band of Scottish bagpipers, it matters what they said they would do, and how it is wrong of them to single out white people for protection.
The Nazis killed a lot of white people just sayin.
I know. But we're not talking about Nazis or Neo-Nazis -- what I'm talking about is group supremacy: setting up any one group for special status above the others. It's a little thing called "being unfair".
In biblical Christianity, that's wrong.
Then bibical Christianity would not be for Democracy or Capitalism that would be seen as wrong.
Democracy is a very Christian system, in that everyone is treated as equal in value, and their opinions are not considered less if they're poor or lack influence. That's the intent and the theory, anyway. YMMV
As for Capitalism, it's true that Jesus clearly wasn't for people seeking after riches, but capitalism just means freedom to engage in trade, with as little meddling from third parties as possible, unless a particular act of trade hurts someone. Capitalism is trade. Trade isn't wrong -- if it were, everyone would be dead because they couldn't buy or barter for food, nor could those who grew food receive funding through purchase to cover their food growing costs.
While all of that is true Democracy never works that way in America nor does Capitalism. If you come from a lower middle class family like I do you are the victim of classism.
Then how have countless Americans come from abject poverty and risen upward to becoming powerful multi-millionaires? Because we don't live in a caste system, like India has, or a class system, like the U.K. has had. In those systems your economic destiny is the same as your origin, because of the systems and traditions in place. America is not a caste or class system, and so people can rise or fall through personal economic levels by their own merits, luck, or misfortune. Their status isn't a frozen one, like it is in most of the world.
Simple most people who are multi-millionaires have children those children inherited wealth. The rich have their own class system the memmebers of the family of a wealthy person are born into money.
America is the best example of this hardly any of them work for their money it is all ready given to them I hate a free lunch I would rather work for myslef then it be given freely to me.

Respect is earned, you know.
And disrespect is the default, it seems.

Like the graph showed, they had to come goose-stepping in eventually. This thread was getting rather long.

It's not that women perform poorly at work but rather that women tend to think more holistically or with a genius like intuitive integrative comprehensive capability. Bosses tend to favor men because bosses only grade on the specialized and basic skills that a worker acquires. Also Bosses only grade based on factual evidence which rules out any consideration of a woman's gifted intuition because her ideas are not yet proven.
You certainly bring the lolz to this forum, androbot!
But in case you're being serious, there is simply no evidence behind your claims of female superiority.
There are professions where intuition, empathy, and even holistic thinking are a useful skills to have. Like social work for instance. Most social workers are women because it is a job that requires interpersonal skills involving intuition and being understand and supportive. So I say that women who have those traits should consider doing such jobs. But in many workplaces, it is specialized skills that are the most needed.
