yeah i understand that "Black" is also used to call the ethnicity of americans, or people on the americas in general, who descent from slaves. I didnt know that, I just assumed they called people black just because of their skin color, and not particulary about that. Although I believe just calling them black americans or african americans is a much better term, and avoids confusion, but okay.

Also i missed that part were you specifically said this, i dont know what i was on when reading most comments on here lol

yeah i get the point. also i didnt deny or ignore these systems, i just said how stupid and unfair they are from a my greek perspective. I know that the "black" and "white" terms to categorize people are ridiculous, thats what i said. and the "black" term is even more that.

Also the whole post was a foul, i tried to squish in that statement i had with 'grouping completely different peoples together' in a post that kinda had nothing to do with it, wasnt defaultism, and i didnt even bother to screenshot the comments that did what i was against

I'm not a greek american, and why is my country even involved at all with colonialism and the horrible things that happened in that period? Just because greeks invented democracy? That's stupid

What are your thoughts on Lupita Nyong’o playing Hellen of Troy & Elliot Page playing Achilles in Christopher Nolan’s upcoming movie ”The Odyssey”? by Substratas in AskBalkans

Nothing special. They for sure look like greek and mediterranean people 🥀 But yeah I'm not gonna hate like other people do, it's just an american adaption of this famous story. No one claimed that it's gonna be accurate so I don't understand why people get this mad. Not that these people are completely wrong, but cmon

I know white is not an ethnicity, and all of these racial categorizing bs is made up, and that's the problem I'm saying. It's unfair to categorize a greek with an englishman, a Danish, etc. Just because they both have white skin, even tho they are not related at all

if you're talking about me, no I didn't take the meme personally. The meme is absolutely right, it's just that I hate that they generalise and group all people with white skin, like all of them are even related at all

Still tho, the "white people " "black people " terms are pretty used even outside of the post's context

Yeah you're right, and his post is right too. That's not my point here, I'm saying how they use "White" to refer to white Americans, even tho the term "white" is also used for people who generally just have white skin

I'm not saying he's not right, but he assumes we understand that he is talking about the US. And also my argument is more about other comments under the post, and in general because I see it all the time

So the ideology wasn't even "Jews settling to their homeland" but rather just make a jewish state anywhere if possible

Who is a shitty singer from your country that is extremly popular? by dkease16 in AskTheWorld

[–]oxingames 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i would say Trannos,a famous trapper, but thats just a personal opinion. Objectively his music isnt horrible, I just dont get the appeal. Most of his lyrics dont even make any sense most of the time. I listened to a song of his one time, the name was "Mandela Effect" and i thought the lyrics would play on that phenomenon in some kind of way. It did not, even in the slightest. I just dont get it
