Black People Should Open Their Minds More..

[Matriarchy Refugee]

Japanese built a large chunk of their country off an over the top imitation of Western Culture mixed with traditional Japanese aesthetics, Japanese music is a large mix of American Rock/Pop/Rap, a lot of Japanese youth culture is based in black american fashion and music, I can go on and on for days, and the Japan is one of the closest things to a completely homogeneous society we have aside from North Korea and some Islamic countries.

Forget race, but life in general, if you're stuck in your ways, you'll never get anywhere. Why model yourself mentally and spiritually off a dying failure of a country like North Korea when you can pick any of the successful countries in the world were birthed off new ideas?

EDIT: And I'd argue that the old things aren't even remotely fine

You mean the same Japan that got nuked and colonized by the west? you don't think being conquered by the west is why Japan "imitates" it? Modern day Japan is the definition of a conquered people.

Dope vid that covers why blacks seem to be stuck in our ways mentally. I made a thread about it:

And OP, dont you for music that promotes our own genocide?. Modern-day hiphop is one of the biggest reasons young black people feel as if they HAVE to fit a certain stereotype of "black". The young, black male are affected the hardest. The thugged-out, super swagged-out black man is seen as the "alpha" in the black community. The is perpetuated mainly in hiphop culture. This culture is teaching our young men that being ignorant is "cool". Its teaching our young men that sleeping with as many women as possible is what makes you a man. This culture is teaching us that being extra aggressive and intimidating is how a black man should act. Whatever is linked with the "hood" is considered black. All of these things combined makes alot of smart young black males feel pressured to suppress their intelligence in order to appear more "street". This is rampant in our own community. This "opening up" of one's mind that you speak of would get a lot of black people laughed at, mocked and ridiculed. Ignorance is in, intelligence is out

Thread is lame and you knew it was but you still decided to post it.

#newblacks are way ahead of you on that philosophy you're advocating, so what are you really arguing?

I've been called "weirdo" but that doesn't clout me and make me internalize racism.

Every group around the world has their societal norms and if you don't fit into them you're going to be ridiculed for it. If anything blacks are lot more open-minded and accepting then other groups.

Actually we need to open up less. Other races only come into our house to steal from us.
