What is it with Europeans and Americans?
 

When you look at the map of the world and you find areas that have

1) advanced standard of living

2) justice system that works most of the time

3) economy that sustains the majority of its people

4) civilization that strives to advance people

5) Deomocracy that lets the voice of the majority of the people

You would find that these countries are

a) majority white

b) Japanese or So. Korean(Hong Kong and Singapore are not real democracies, dumbass)

I know its not RACE... so what is it?

Culture?

If so, which part of "Caucasian" culture ensures that the priceless social assets above are built and maintained?

Any ideas?

Sorry had to be done.

I'd say culture and the way previous generations have lived is the deciding factor.

It would even be even fucking funnier if the picture showed up.

Another way to ask the question: Why (outside of Japan and S Korea) do Euro and 'white' countries dominate in terms of democracy, a functioning civil society, economic growth, and technological advancement?

I know it has nothing to do with race... if it is cultural, what are these cultural elements? Are these absent elsewhere?

No it didn't.

It was mean...and pointless anyway.

If you must need to "prove" Europe is superior, why not try pitching a bit higher than that.

Americans And Euros have their own equally stupid moments..

True dat, playa, true dat. But can what is being 'done right' in these areas be exported to other countries and cultures so that they too will enjoy the benefits on a democractic scale?

lol, this is one ignorant thread

what makes you think this so called democracy is better ?

and yeah USA has a democracy :1orglaugh lol, they should redefine their state form into the FIRST hypocracy of the world :)


no USA is NOT democratic at all ,

Democracy is nothing but an illusion to keep the sheep quite :glugglug

I like that.

Really. I like that.

However, I still prefer the American/EU/AU/CAN version of this 'illusion' than the Robert Mugabe version... you?

you have no Idea what it is like for normal people to live in Zimbabwe , neither do I for that matter, so I cannot comment on that

You can read, can't you?

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

and fox news is far left wing media corp that brings its news bipartisan

Hypocrisy is as hypocrisy does. I'd rather live under a hypocrisy where the illusion of economic advancement and personal freedom is at least periodically fed than beaten out of people through pogroms and gulags.
