I didn't assume you agreed. I just thought she was a fool. And how is white the dominant culture in America? "White" really isn't a culture. There is Italian American, Polish and Irish American, Southern, Amish, Minnesotan, Jewish (do we consider Jews white or Semitic, does it matter?) and hundreds more all with their unique speech patterns and foods, religions and customs- as I see it there really is no white culture.

As for the cult of war, no nation to my knowledge has more reverence for warriors and the warrior code (more specifically the Samurai traditions) than the Japanese, and they are Asian.

What the cultural sociologists and university populists still don't get is the only minority that counts is the minority of ONE -- no matter what color or race you happen to be makes no difference.

The individual must be held to be supreme in a moral society. Anything less may as well be an ant colony or beehive.

There is so much zaniness in your post 21614 that I shall constrain myself to one statement:

"For example, I do believe white people romanticize war."

This is true, but it is also true for EVERY OTHER RACE ON EARTH! So much for any correlation to one race, be it white, yellow, red, black or purple polka-dotted.
