Capitalism good (and make sure you know NOTHING regarding economic theories!)
Women dumb
Non-Europeans (ethnically, and even then the Germanic tribes are at the top of the chain [Anglo-Saxons included, evidently]) bad and/or dumb
Gays bad
Christianity good (only when antithetical to the message of Jesus)
(white) America good
Israel good
Have I captured the essence of the ‘classic’ ignorant and angry white American? Honestly, it fits pretty well for FN and EDL dudes in France and the UK, respectively…
Losurdo really drives home that white/western supremacy has been a global project that’s gone through many phases, not just limited to one country.
The word untermensch for example, comes from lothrop stoddard, a US white supremacist and eugenicist who greatly inspired the nazis. They also took lebensraum from manifest destiny, and openly wanted to emulate what the US did to its native population, in eastern europe.
After the nazis broke the rules and attacked westward and started western infighting by attacking britain and france, then lost in ww2, the US took up the mantle of the west’s leading country who would keep the non-white populations of the world in check, by bombing anyone who dared to challenge colonialism or neo-colonialism, or impede their control of resources and prevent the spice from flowing.
From the “civilizing missions” of the British, French and the Dutch to the theft, plundering, pillaging and desecration of indigenous lands and its people in the “New World”, with all of it mirrored today only this time with different targets, it’s clear as fuck that a majority of today’s US’ white population do not stray far from their European colonialist ancestors and don’t want to…
Maybe I’m doomposting but I genuinely don’t know how this vicious cycle of white supremacist entities scratching each other’s backs and evolving in the process of doing so could end…
I personally don’t think there’s much hope for the imperial core countries at least, but they’re a minority of the world’s population. The rest of the world doesn’t want a leading country, they want trade on an equal basis, and a multi-polar world with international bodies that can resolve disputes impartially. Capitalism isn’t even as sustainable as feudalism, and will likely have a much shorter lifespan. Enriching a few at the expense of the many isn’t sustainable in the long-term, because the many will fight back and eventually win, as they have done and will continue to do.
Empires generally have a long, whiny decline into obsolescence… I think ancient Rome (after all the civil wars, imperial overextension, instability, famines, civil unrest) it eventually emptied out to ~1% of its peak population before it was conquered. If it isn’t politically stable, doesn’t inspire people, and no one’s willing to fight for it, it can’t last.
China bad
Islam bad and dumb
Communism and socialism bad

this just captures the angry white man in not just the US, but also KKKommonwealth and Europe.

Some pretty great points actually. A couple are just terrible but not all
Which points were great, lmao? These were all comically awful takes at worst to chauvanistic at best.
The gays are actually really great
Yes, the original point was “gays bad.” Like I said, all of the points range from awful to chauvanistic at best.
I know my propagandised 21st century schizoid European man!
(just checking you actually meant schizoid, which is notably different to schizophrenia. both could make sense here but imply different things)
both are ableist to use in this context

You don’t know what the words that you’re using mean.
You’re entitled to your own opinion of course.
