Anon. There is a good reason why the arabs, the copts and any non subsaharan people killed and ravaged subsaharan nations and tribes. Africans are HUGE faggots.

Thanks, I think I might. I don't normally like old books but I enjoyed hitchiker's guide.

>>92028738
Truth. I've seen some shit on /pol/

It's about time a comic had a character put whitey in his place, fucking crackers thinking they can just use and wear things made by original people, us Afrikans, when in reality they should be grovelling on the floor.

>>92028444
Yeah that sounds about right actually

Dirk has the right to wear whatever he wants, which is why he can tell that guy to fuck off then turn 360 degrees and moonwalk out of there

But it's also taking the traditional dress of a culture which he does not belong to or understand, which is why that guy is mad. Casually assuming the trappings of another culture without understanding what those trappings mean in that culture is disrespectful to that culture, like when dumb metalheads in USA wear those Mjolnir pendants. You're treating something that is important to millions of other people as a meaningless object useful only for what it can add to your outfit. It's not the end of the world, but it does contribute to the slow process of cultural erosion and devaluation of heritage, so yeah it upsets some people. Ultimately you are free to make your own choices, however.

>>92028738
More developed countries divvied up and exploited Africa for a long time and left insufficient infrastructure in place when they withdrew. This is the general reason why Africa is still p fucked up. I mean look at your country; are there not a significant percentage of assholes who obstruct improvements to your country? Conservatives/Liberals? So your country already has it's government, education, utilities, etc. established in ways some African countries do not, and yet change is still difficult. Imagine how much harder it is without all of that.

>>92028844
The character is still Dirk. Just because he has puffy black hair, a chisel-ish jaw and a face doesn't meaning he's plagiarizing every puffy haired, chiseled jawed, face-having entity ever.

It's almost like all human and human representations have a definite physical archetype. The characters themselves are nothing alike.

Because it is meaningless, save in specific ways to his culture and for convenience.

All culture is essentially worthless. Just because it means something to YOU doesn't mean you get to chimp out when someone doesn't care about your interpretation of a rag worn over the head.

>>92029121
Are you saying video is not a worthwhile means of conveying information? That's retarded, anon. Makes me think you don't actually have a way to refute the content so you gotta attack the source unrighteously.

Mostly by stealing the advanced things that were already there, which they proceeded to slowly and surely ruin and degrade.

>>92029109
So, what's the crazy bullshit that specifies the end of the world this time? We get a new one every few years.

Alright, I'm not familiar with the original books but decided to give the series a go, and it's the opposite of holistic. Everything is explained and Dirk is a low level reality manipulator which will always get drawn to the right place. This is ABSOLUTELY NOT a holistic approach to anything. Is Max Landis actually retarded?

The best Dirk Gently was the 2012 BBC television series.

>>92029144
Of course not! In many ways youtube is a superior means of communication. But historians and scholars typically do not spend years performing exhaustive research to compile their results in a youtube video. For all the information that's on Youtube, there is still plenty that is not on Youtube. For all the information in books, there is plenty that is not in books. I'm just saying maybe pick up a Jared Diamond book before you start using Youtube to back up your incomplete ideas about history, because people who went to good highschools (public school for me no less) and use their local library to do more than jack off in the aisle will be able to immediately see problems in your argument that you are not aware of.

Bullshit. There are full harvard lectures on youtube. And videos of symposiums and lectures between scholars etc.

>>92029144
Video is a worthwile medium for conveying information, but if you had ever picked up any book without pictures of people in spandex inside it you'd know how much research and data is needed for any non-fiction book to be considered passable, the kind of information video isn't suited to pass. I've learnt a great deal of very useful shit on youtube, but you can't compare even a full lenght documentary to a well written book, let alone a 20 minute video.
This meme that academics are "out of touch" and youtube personalities are where it's what comes mostly from people who were never good with academic research in the first place, whether you agree with it or not.
Also, there are a lot of reasons why Africa is still the shithole it is, and one of them is how the West always finds a way to destabilize any rising power which might impose a threat to western access to american natural resources. See: Thomas Sankara and Burkina Faso, which went from absolute cesspit to self-sustaining nation in less than 4 years until the Ivory Coast and French governments pulled a coup instating a dictatorship which lasted for 20 fucking years there.

Dirk took it off. He did ridicule him about having no theories and being a "bully fashion/cultural appropriation nazi" and got kicked by the black girl and was cowed. Not enough of a takedown for me. Seems like just SJW-lite, meant to acclimate new readers to the social justice warrior bend, which is still to hamfisted for me to enjoy the rest of the book if I'm to expect more of it.

If he had not taken it off or insulted the guy like an adult rather than like a kid saying "big meany" I'd have been okay imo because these people do exist.

>>92029352
You suck.

>>92029314
"They don't typically" is not the same as "no one does ever." I'm merely drawing a contrast between the concentration of researched information on Youtube and in, say, a library.

This fucker >>92029316 brings up a good point tho. There are lectures and classes on youtube, yes. But the original anon did not post a lecture or a class, and I would point out that books still have the ability to be more information-dense and reference-friendly than documentaries or classes. It says something that the bibliographies of even the most educated lectures are not composed solely of other lectures. Books have some things that you cannot (yet) find on youtube.

>>92029396
>"They don't typically" is not the same as "no one does ever."

But you were impying that the incidence of occurence was so low as to be negligible, kike.

I had been meaning to storytime the comics sometime.

I hear Salmon of Doubt fills in lot of stuff for the TV show.

>>92029396
I don't know about you, but I find far more up-to-date information on YouTube than in a library. Libraries I go to, to read philosophy or ancient history, which are harder to update, unlike other sciences.

Do it.

The black guy's dialogue sounds more like an angry, self-righteous teenager than a grown man.

>>92028871
Does that outfit have some sort of religious meaning? If it doesn't and if it's unacceptable to share things that aren't any kind of sacred taboo, the other guy in the comic could argue that the black dude is appropriating European and American culture too (his clothing, his education, the language he speaks, being familiar with the concept of cultural appropriation) and he should revert back to the African way of doing things.

>>92029109
Nah, the fact that God is in charge and decides what is right is by definition is still Might is Right

>>92029486
That's wrong tho. I know why but I won't tell you because it's not right for you, specifically, to know.

>>92029428
Nope! I was using the difference in medium as an indicator of suitability for conveying information, which in a later post I elaborated on as being concerned partly with the density of information and use as reference material of the final product. I'm Catholic by the way and your reading comprehension skills could use some work.

>>92029542

>>92029388Dude, he insults a brown person. You can't do that in SJW comics without being a villain. That means you shouldn't drop it, AND you're a faggot. Couple pages later it also mentions failed govenments in Africa, islamic terrorists, and stereotypes about asians. If a SJW read any of that the writer would be called literally Hitler and hounded on social media. You, OP, are a massive cocksucking ball fondling faggot.

Lectures, both online and irl, have bibliographies for a reason. An example: a friend of mine wanted to get into Agamben, but his background in philosophy is lackluster, so I suggested him some lectures by Agamben on youtube which I myself used when getting into his work. Those lectures ended confusing him even more, because he wasn't already into the philosophical tradition Agamben is drawing from.

I'm pretty sure they have T-shirts and jeans all around the world, partly because of massive colonization/globalization/tourism by European countries and America. Kind of different when you push your own shit on everyone else. Plus, the problem with cultural appropriation is not that it hurts people's feelings, it's that it propagates trappings of the culture being appropriated in a new context, one where the actual culture and the history of/reason for said trappings exists only as much as the appropriator understands them, which in the case of cultural appropriation is not at all/not enough.

Honestly this feels like an incomplete explanation, and I have to get to work. Have you tried googling phrases like "Why can't black people appropriate white culture" or "can white culture be appropriated" and then read a bunch of different viewpoints on both sides? Of course you'll get a bunch of "self-funded because no one but advertisers thought they were legitimate" bullshit SJW articles, and a bunch of "self-funded because no one but advertisers thought they were legitimate" articles on the other side, but I'm sure with a keen eye you avoid echo chambers like 4chan, reddit, tumblr, and find something with real value.

The problem with cultural appropriation is cultural appropriation itself.

All of human history has had cultures exchanging, sometimes good things, sometimes bad things. New ideas, new words, Rarely does anyone go out to with the express intent to take something from another culture element, oftentimes it just happens, people pick things up.

That's the type of dehumanizing rulers have historically used to convince their people to fight fights that serve the ruler but not the people or the country. That's why libtards freak out every time they think they see it.


Also, this is a public website, not your secret club. tumblr, reddit, and 4chan have always cross-bred and always will.
Also, neither a purely capitalist nor purely communist government can succeed. A working government adapts to the changing world/economy/technology and needs of its people, borrowing principles from a variety of philosophies of government without going too far in any harmful direction. If the Reds come I'll be by your side w/my AR, but you'd be crazy to think that there's no benefit to a strictly limited adoption of communist ideas as they suit a mostly capitalist society.

One of the reason why socialism failed was because African focus more on social justice than in the economy, they saw capitalism = colonialism, that why they chose to practice socialism.

The socialist experiment failed for 3 reasons.

Socialism created an unhealthy state bureaucracy, which was characterized with mismanagement and waste.

The ideology itself itself brings a lot of control, which breeds corruption.

It resolve in the big concentration of power by big elites in Africa who abused their power, look at Somalia and Ghana in the 80s, hell the peasants did not have right to vote in some of those countries.

>Why do leftists today say racial segregation is bad yet advocate against "cultural appropriation"?
Objective is control and power, and money. Not virtue.

lmao this cultural appropriation shit is so fucking gay, only middle class american whites care about this shit. I'm desi and here in the UK whenveer we see a non desi wearing our clothing most of are usually pretty chuffed.

Cannot wait for the Tories to slaughter, already see leftist drones in denial, June 9th will be very satisfying.

>>92028944
That might be the case. Except in that instance, there is no case for appropriation, because that culture was inflicted upon them.

>>92030537
>inflicted upon them
T-shirts and jeans were culturally accepted by Europe in the 40s?

gotta love the idiots who don't realize this has literally been the only way to get enough money to protect these animals because no one else will give these countries anyway near that type of money to protect endangered species.

And it was Socialism the one that ruined Somalia and Ghana, after 3 years after the socialism experiment Ghana was bankrupt and to borrowed money.

Ghana had all these state companies, which were so bad that in 1982 only 20% of those state companies were producing at 40% of their capacity while the rest were causing losses.

By 1984 they had too much staff that people were paid to stay in home just to secure people weren`t unemployed.

Those companies that were acquire by the state were poorly design, example, in Ghana they spent 3 years building a sugar factory, it worked for 1 year since the state forgot about the water supply system.

Also have in mind that socialism is an alien ideology for any indigenous african culture, for example all the means of production with the exception of land is privately own, not own by the chiefs.

When a peasant produce something they can take their things to the market which are open and free, the chiefs do not impose price control to the peasants or expropiate the wealth the peasant gain.

I don't understand this whole wearing clothes thing. Why can Africans wear basically anything. There's no tucking logic, so many people shouldn't be allowed to wear jeans.

Oh wait, equality or something something

Thanks for reading, and remember support the offical release!

And fuck Champions.

Riots nothing, they'd be unhappy even if Corbyn did win. There's no way Labour could hold down a government the way the party is and people are worried enough about trade negotiations that they'll let May continue rather than wipe the slate and possibly get a worse deal. France will be where things get really interesting though, Le Penn said she'd look to France pulling out of the EU and Macron said he'll pursue reform. Europe cannot continue to function beneficially to the citizens in its current form.

Top kek. The Mjölner pendants are cheap shit sold at fairs for kids and rockers to buy, it's not important to anyone.

Thanks for the perspective

There's actually a big movement in changing the official language in a lot of African countries for that exact reason. Because there's a whole lot less to be found in French than in English on the internet, providing a stumbling block.

Hell, I don't even check wikipedia in my own language because there's never any citations and half the articles are just a sentence or two unless it deals specifically with a local thing. It's just easier to stick to the English side of the internet.

>>92031322
Thanks, Norrin! I might start following this.

>>92031464
The French Canadians are super pissed about this, but if they wanted English not to be the language of the internet, they probably should have contributed more.

>>92028871

Infrastructure was decent, the Africans in the places that are currently shitholes were never taught how to maintain it.

Didn't the Paris commune have fires every other night because people were burning trash and they kept really shitty records? But then again France during that age sucked dick as a whole

Native african in africa acting like a grimgo first of all

Why would the arrican care that he wabts to dress like an idiot. Why would the african care about bedouins

Of course it makes perfect sense if the black is a gringo. They get offended at retarded shit 24/7

>>92028925
But tgat's a dumb chink hot opinion that ignores half of china is still a rural hithole ignored by it's government

African simply lacked the devades of infradtructure and education to maintain and create it euros had. And the few select independent goverments were left with a metric fuckton of land to administrate - that amount of land took the euro countries centuries of conquest and assimilation to reach that sieze. And those lands are filled with natives that don't speak you language and, in fact, want jack shit to do with you and will try to kill you if you mess with them

Decolonisation was one of the most half assed disasters in history.

>Decolonisation was one of the most half assed disasters in history.
A simple expansion is that you don't just decolonize. You replace it with SOMETING? And in many case, they replace with violent despot dictatorship, or islamic fundamentalist hellhole and call it progress. Korea and Singapore got oppressive corporate industrialists, and the result is much better.
