Salon: Trump's Western Civilizaton speech is "white nationalist" rhetoric

[Ivytalk]

I'm talking about white people. I think some of what you said is due to some of the propaganda I've seen but if you want to give me specifics we can talk about it. What we call "civilization" originated in the Middle East and Northern Africa so of course subsequent civilizations built upon that. Nevertheless, White people are responsible for things like the harnessing of electricity, nuclear energy, the internal combustion engine, computer technology, air conditioning (no, it wasn't the Black guy that gets credited with it each Black history month), aircraft, and so on.

Without White people the most effective mode of land transportation would probably still be a horse drawn wagon and ships would still be crossing the oceans using sails and/or oars. There would be no electric grids, televisions, etc.

And "Modern Medicine?" Give me a break.

And without black people, no peanut butter. **** that.

Jimmy Carter invented peanut butter!

An educated black Jew?
You must not be familiar with the Late, Great, Chief Reuben Greenberg

Wait...did you assume he was a white dude b/c of his name?

That's pretty sad. Uncle Tom, huh?

I don't know the man. You are calling him a Uncle Tom. Anyway, I would not insult the man known as Uncle Tom.

It's a shame. He was a pretty incredible guy. He died but Chief Greenburg was a classy guy. He did a lot to clean up Charleston.

Being a Police Chief is a stressful job. I would not what that thankless job.

So how can you "consider the source" when you never heard of the source?

He gave me my first real job - and he gave me some lumps too. All in all, he was one of the most influential figures in my life.

You hear the name "Reuben Greenberg" and you don't think of a black guy? Weird...I always do.

"Innovative Criminologist"

Interesting.

A reporter (I think from Jive 5 News) asked Greenberg one time about why CPD didn't have a "community policing unit".

He famously replied, "Why would I reduce what my department has always been doing down to some special unit with a fancy name?"

I'm still shocked there's not a street named after him or a statue or something. That guy made the peninsula safe again. He's got a building...


If the snowflakes ever successfully strip Calhoun St of it's name, i'd be happy with renaming it after Reuben.

And where would we be if Muslims hadn't saved all of the classical knowledge when it was essentially destroyed in Europe during the Dark Ages? How much of what the West created was built off of findings that Marco Polo and other explorers brought back from China and elsewhere? Yes, white people contributed a hell of a lot but it wasn't done in a vacuum.

I don't think it was Muslims that saved most of the classical knowledge. I think it was Catholic monks.
Otherwise, of course there is no vacuum. Civilizations build upon each other. But I don't think we'd have anything like the advanced society we have right now if you left everybody else in place and removed what we call Caucasians. Aircraft. Automobiles. Calculus. Space travel. Physics. Computers. Elevators. Air Conditioners. Traffic lights (no, that did not come from a Black guy like you hear every year during Black History month), the Scientific Method as we know it. And yes, by any reasonable standard of what "Modern Medicine" is, Modern Medicine. All that came from Caucasians. And a lot more.
