How do we stimulate our birth rate to keep us as a strong nation.
>>72753563
We're already stimulating it, we just need to not let half of them emigrate and stop importing foreigners who dilute the Irish genepool.

## IN THIS TOPIC ##
We list all topics and statements that:
>trigger culture-induced responses
>are taboo in general, and cannot be addressed publicly
## EXAMPLES ##
In my country, there are several topics or facts people will simply react to in a culture-driven way... i.e. most people will be triggered by them to the point of forgetting all rationality.
Reactions are like:
>but that's JUST wrong!
>it can't be like that
>etc.
Examples of taboo topics (some of them are silly):
>going barefoot in public unless it is warranted by the situation (e.g. at the beach)
Not all Italians, but most of them are triggered to no end by people (especially foreigners) being barefoot where "you're not supposed to" (who decided what you're supposed to do, is unclear and ill-specified).
Another one:
>Parmesan cheese on fish and seafood (unless warranted by a strictly coded recipe -- one of them being "cape sante" scallops)
## SIDE TOPIC: WHY THE AMERICAN FLAG ##
Recently, on 4chan, I noticed most Americans I interact with are strictly taboo-driven in most conversation.
Examples:
>thread on a topic
>people debating
>I tell a topic-related story
>am attacked because I am "not making a point"
WTF? I was just engaging in conversation like a normal human being. Like, say, we're at the bar... not at court.
>you express an opinion
>you disagree with them
>"muh, anon, you don't know anything about America. You shouldn't talk of countries you know nothing of"
>then they proceed as usual judging other peoples and religions as if they knew everything about them
>they misuse labels and semantics
>literally all the rest of the world uses a word in a certain way
>they use it in a different way
>you point out this might be a source of confusion
>"muh duh anon, you think you're special, are you?"
I am curious. Is this just web-related autism in general or is it something specific to Americans? I am puzzled. Did any of you anons notice this?
Japan has a million bizarre taboos. For example, going shirtless in public is gauche unless you're performing a physically exerting activity. Also women don't shave their pubes because that's the mark of a prostitute.
Zwarte Piet is racist
The labour party said Zwarte Piet had to change last december.
During the elections in march they went from 38 / 150 seats to 9 / 150 seats lol.

>Also women don't shave their pubes because that's the mark of a prostitute.
I didn't know this one!
>>72753169
Could you elaborate? Isn't that just a local tradition? Like religious celebrations in South of Italy (with fake crucifixions etc.)?
Also... doesn't it cast dark-skinned people in a positive light? It's a bit cliché, but it has done no harm so far, I presume.
>Purposely massacre and genocide as many Muslims and Chinese he could
>Spared Christians, Buddhists and everyone else who wasn't Muslim or Chinese
Why was he so based? Do we need another Chinggis?

1. England
2. No, we don't take modern foreign languages or teaching them seriously, why would we do that for ancient ones?
3. Socialists killed off the old fashioned system of education and it has been like this ever since.

/pol/ meme about The Clinton Foundation having a bunch of children stashed away under a pizzeria in Virginia where they're used for sex and Satanic rituals.
The actual pizzeria called the cops multiple times, because people kept harassing them by sending death threats.
Also, the name is a reference to the Watergate scandal back when Nixon was president. It's actually more of a stupid normie meme to call every scandalous event [noun]-gate now.
