Are black Americans unable to learn other languages?

Massacring the indigenous population was the price to pay to create prosperous colonies like USA, Canada , Australia and New Zealand. Look at Hispanic America on the other hand, all countries are poor because Spaniards mixed with the local population and thus they watered down their genetic baggage. It's not a surprise that the most advanced countries of South America are the ones that have more people of pure European ancestry like Argentina or Chile whereas Bolivia and Ecuador, where most of people are of rather pure indigenous extraction ,have poor standard of living.

That has nothing to do with race, but rather with a misadaptation to Western values issue.

The moment indigenous populations get their act together, like the Chinese did, they will prosper and, being the result of selective mixed-race, will overtake most inbred genetically-inferior racist twats.

The mongrel population of South America is too lazy and stupid to adapt to Western standards. They have had time enough to do so. I can only see one solution: ethnic cleansing.

This is implicitly racist. You assume that non whites cannot create their own way to become succesful societies, because the Western one is the only valid, so their last resort is becoming good copypasters of Westerners like the Chinese fakemasters. In South America they not only do not adapt to Western values but are resurrecting the old indigenous way of life and cuting down ties with the Western world. Take a look at Bolivia for example, where president Evo Morales promotes Quechua in detriment of Spanish. This is the ugly result of Spanish miscegenation during the colonisation era, but I do not blame the Spanish conquerors because they were in a distant land and without Spanish women, so they were too much in a hurry to find a hole and could not think about long term consequences.

Glad you mention it, because Brazil, the leading economy in South America and the seventh largest economy in the world, is composed by all kinds of races and cultures.

Multiracial (mixed-race) makes up for over 60% of the population in Brazil.

Naturally, it has taken them a while to get their act together, but now they are the envy of other "white" Spanish ex-colonies, like Argentina.

So, undeniably, is has nothing to do with race, but rather with a misadaptation to Western values.

And please, Franco, don't try to win the argument by mindless repeating your racist rantings like a parrot. It turns the thread into a boring hen house and it doesn't look good on you at all, neither, although I suspect that's your ultimate goal, play the role of the fascist and racist Spaniard, that British twats enjoy so much.

A ver si te entiendo. Los valores occidentales son superiores, pero la raza occidental no. Pero si nuestra raza creó los valores superiores. ¿No seremos superiores en alguno que otro sentido por eso? ¿Por qué ellos no crearon el sistema de valores superior? ¿No será porque son inferiores en cierta manera? Bueno, no quiero decir que un blanco sea superior a un indio como individuo, pero como conjunto sí. Se deberá a algo, quizá a la raza, por lo menos no se puede descartar tal explicación.

¿Quién dice que sean superiores?

Prevalentes no quiere decir que sean superiores.

Entonces, por esa regla de tres, todas las civilizaciones cuyo modelo prevaleció sobre el resto en un momento determinado de la historia, deberían ser consideradas como superiores.

La prevalencia de los valores occidentales en la actualidad se debe a una multitud de factores y ninguno de ellos relacionado con la superioridad racial.
Ahí tienes el ejemplo de China, un país pobre y atrasado, que tras adaptarse al modelo socioeconómico prevalente va camino de convertirse en la primera potencia mundial, a pesar de que su población es totalmente diferente tanto como raza como en cultura.

También puedes echar un vistazo a la historia y veras como, por ejemplo, Inglaterra, no era más que una tierra de salvajes hasta que se adaptaron al modelo de los colonizadores romanos. Y eso no sucedió en dos días.

Brazilian economy is just the biggest one in South America, they are not leaders in anything. Chile and Argentina have better standard of living than Brazil , not to mention that some parts of Brazil are becoming land without law due to the conflict between narcos and the Brazilian state. Most developed parts of Brazil are in the south, where people of European ancestry are more numerous.

Maybe someday latin american countries will become rich, only maybe. But if the indigenous population was simply wiped out by white settlers like the Anglo did in North America and Australia ,they would be rich NOW, and not in an uncertain future.

Well just because Europe prefers a western society, who says other people want to live like Europeans do?

The Aboriginals were living in harmony with nature before the British people arrived imposing their western ways on them. It's their land and you took it away from them.


Who gave white Americans the right to impose their WESTERN livestyles on Native American Indians?

These Native American Indians live in peace with nature in the USA before the white man came there. They were living of the land and living their lifestyle. In came the white American and started killing them, taking THEIR LAND!


And look what the WESTERN system did to AMERICA, pollution of the enviroment, because whites want MORE AND MORE MONEY. Drilling for OIL...causing WAR, now the OIL is leaking of the coast of Mexico more animals are dying, so many animals have gone extinct because of white Americans killing them.

If America was still under Native American Rule this would not have happend, but yet again white people force their way of life on to other people... and steal their countries



America would have been such a beautiful continent before the white man arrived building factories, polluting the enviroment, oil spills, killing of animals... Really sick!

What right to immigrants have to come to Britain, take our jobs and taking OUR LAND. Food for thought.

If they don't like how Europeans live then how come Europe is infested with immigrants? Everybody likes the Western societies, also not all are the same. Europe is quite different from USA despite both are Western.

You joking right? Britian colonized two thirds of the world... if anything immigrants are taking what you have taken from them!

You reap what you sow... Food for thought!

We owe them nothing. The reason most of those countries have roads and railways is because of colonialism.
