Proud of being white american? Is that still allowed ?

Who said it was all white? But that's not the point.

American. Race is dumb. People need to stop making dumb **** important. Or relevant, even. It's not and it never has been to anyone except dumb ****s.
 
I wish people would focus of science and other more important aspects of humanity rather than semantics. But we have not evolved to that point.

Absolutely. I'm positive that we will get there some day, it's just going to take a lot of time. I also really wish if space exploration was a priority for us, just as it was in the Cold War.

I've come to the conclusion that were so distracted by petty issues to ever leave this place.

I don't see a problem in having pride in ancestry, the problem is this culture has been completely defined by it.

I see no issue in that as well. From a abstract standpoint, people/society are in a stagnation phase of willpower. I wish we could use our previously learned knowledge from prior generations, learn what worked/what didn't and continue to push forward at a stable pace.

What most don't understand is that suppressing different groups (suppressing original suppressor) is creating stagnation and will not lead to informed change.

I don't think pride is warranted, as you do nothing to earn being born in a race or a nation, but you can be honored by it, I guess, or you can at least like it, in that same line, you can't put down or glorify an ethnicity, but there can't be real diversity without differences, ethnic or otherwise.

Of course you need to assimilate if you want to be part of a nation, which is something many something-Americans or Europeans don't do.

I once thought a cosmopolitan globalized society was the way to go, Arthur C Clarke would be disappointed.

This, I think it's probable we'll reach a regression before reaching any kind of singularity, let alone space travel.

If anything, we'll see the birth of self aware AI, in our lifetimes.

I agree. When it comes to Antifa and the Alt Right, both their clashing ideologies just make each other bigger. It's going to be a continuous vicious cycle.

We've regressed as a species. This is another reason I'm against globalism. It sounds nice on paper, but the world is too immature and barbaric for it to work.
