in praise of individuals
Well /pol, what do you do when an individual of a despised group does something you can't help but appreciate as quality?

Case in point, this song, which I know you all enjoy:

What system would be better at praising and raising individuals that have merit than the one we have now?

Do you want an offical board of talent that judges the merit?
Then you have american idol.
People are too dumb to even understand technique or skill/talent.

I'm talking about political systems and talent in general. If individuals -- not groups -- are the ones with merit, then how best to recognize and reward that merit? Is it not liberalism, which puts the individual above the group?

I think some kind of natural sense of morals is necessary to even be a judge of merit.
Meritocracy has only worked in waves or just might makes right.

So you agree that individuals -- irregardless of what group they belong to -- should be rewarded for their merit?
Anonymous Canada No.23111336 >>23111351

But you agree that individuals should be judged on their merit, not based on the actions of some group they belong to? You realize all the arguments for racism on this board are about generalizations, rather than the actions/merit of individuals?

They should be rewarded by their group and keep to themselves. I don't think we should have cities this big, or emperors so far away dictating what I should or shouldn't do. I answer to my father and my local community Priest. People within my fists reach. If I have a grievance with them, I can punch in the face. Inb4 you wouln't do nothing. Doesn't matter, there's something primal about being within arms reach of a roided monkey. If the guys still cons me, well, he has balls, which current "leaders" don't have. And we work for our local guilds instead of some faceless berg corporation. Again, all within arms reach. There's this guy at Church who plays violin nicely. I have a liberal aunty who bakes good pies. I don't think there's a need for some globalism to have me even know or hear about Scott Joplin and recognize his talent. The old lady at Church plays the piano good enough to me, I can recognize that. I don't need more.

I liked some Adam Sandler movies, and since he only has daughters I assume he hasn't mutilated their genitals, but I also don't have any reason to think he wouldn't still participate in and even promote the practices of the blood cult he was born into, so it would be irresponsible to just let him run around. Extend this outlook to whatever level of triviality you're looking for, no offense to Tracy Chapman.

Sounds like you favour a law to ban circumcision. Seems like a reasonable argument could be made, and people won over. The only problem would be if a group of people opposed to the ban for irrational reasons had captured the votes of your representatives.

Not sure if chatbot or subtle joke.
More to the point, I have absolutely no faith in existing systems of law to usefully separate the "despised group" 's individuals from the conditions which caused them to be despised, as those systems have been totally impotent thus far. An individual must separate themselves from the group when the group cannot change its ways if they wish to be treated as a separate individual. Small tokens of contribution to culture or science, however much I like them personally, are not reasons to become careless about causes of agony and disaster.

Yeah sure, but the reward system should be organic. There will never be a perfect meritocracy but deliberately trying to "correct" a flawed meritocracy will just make it far less merit based, which is what DEI and similar measures have done. That's demonstrably the logical conclusion of liberalism/anti-racism in a multicultural society. Once again, there can never be a true meritocracy because the people in charge of hiring and promoting people will always have both personal and collective preferences, but you can maximize merit by ensuring that representatives of the majority population are in charge, as they are less likely to show preference to their in-group compared to a smaller minority.

I don't care whether you like them, I a curious about what system allows those with talent to rise to the top. Hitler had something to say about this, namely that the Catholic church had defeated nepotism by demanding priests be celibate

rising to the top has little to do with talents
it's mostly about pleasing a jew
most often on all fours
so there's a lot of clean up to do if you want to fix that

>Well /pol, what do you do when an individual of a despised group does something you can't help but appreciate as quality?
I could have bought an international album and she could live with her own people in a non-white country.

>What system would be better at praising and raising individuals that have merit than the one we have now?
Possibly any. We have unprecedented technological, industrial, and informational capacities yet we excel at turning people into mentally ill indolents that will never reproduce.

>Don't like demographic replacement? Well what about this billboard no. 6 ballad from 1988 that was written by le nigger?
This is why you faggots rely on bans to avoid arguing with racially aware whites. Your arguments are weak trash.
