What do non Westerners think of how progressive the west is? I mean most of our media is pro choice, pro LGBT, against stigmatizing race mixing, against religious intolerance, etc etc, yet most non western countries are very religious and oppose some to all of those things I listed. Millions of non westerners come to the west for work or whatever and 9 times out of ten, become progressives. Latin America is about to receive millions of Americanized Hispanics that we deport. And in Europe, right wing parties that don't want to let the refugees stay forever are gaining popularity, so eventually the Syrian civil war is going to end and millions of Syrians, some of whom are westernized or even atheists now, will likely be deported back to the very religious middle east... So how are westernized immigrants viewed when they return home? I'm curious about how the general population feels, I know /int/ is a bit further to the right than the mainstream in most countries.

I'm curious because my Indian friend posted on Facebook an article about how moving to America introduced her to feminism and changed how she sees India now. From what I understand, Modi is a right wing populist so I think most Indians wouldn't approve of how my Indian friend feels...

it's irritating because whatever you do is immediately picked up by people who think that by emulating your culture our own will grow in importance
>>
>>70489627
pro choice, pro LGBT, religious tolerance stuff are seen as rational and normal as long as it isn't trannies fucking each other on street (which happens here too).
race mixing isn't an issue here.
we mostly laugh at sweden-tier feminist shit tho, other progressive stuff are seen as normal as i said. and by we i mean the educated secular people

Being the middleground between Sweden and Russia seems the best spot to be. Nothing too serious over here, yet
>>
>>70489627
I don't think there's anything wrong with LGBT or religious tolerance stuff. People should be free to do what they want as long as it doesn't hurt others.
But nowadays, the left wingers in USA are getting ridiculous. Gender neutral pronouns, video game "misogyny", labeling anyone Hitler, victimisation of non-whites, demonisation of whites etc seems like madness to me.
>>
not sure if we count
people generally view USA less as a cultural entity and more a foreign power
when people talk about what they think about USA they are also talking about what they think about Russia, always
yin and yang
the liberalism is just one aspect of this split

So if a Turkish girl brought home a Greek and a Kurdish male and told her family she was in a polyandrous relationship, they wouldn't react negatively?
>>

Same
>>
>>70489829
Racemixing isn't synonymous to polyamory
>>
>>70489883
Obviously, I was just proposing a Sweden tier progressive relationship to really test the limits of Turkey's tolerance.
>>

The Indian friend I was talking about posted a "Syllabus for white people to educate themselves" lel.

She's funny. She had a crush on my in high school even though I'm a straight white male from an upper class background.

I don't know how recent this, but it has to be fairly recent because it was only in the last few years that the majority of Americans started favoring same sex marriage.

If you look at countries by abortion laws or tolerance of homosexuality, the West is clearly the most progressive.
>>
>>70490245
That's a really myopic view of things. Iran by that logic was/ is super progressive as they beat the west to achieving trans rights by more than 20 years.
>>
>>70490285
That's because their views on Islam only recognises gays, trans are "accepted" per say because they are not gays.
>>
>>70490285
You have to look at the context of these laws. In the west, transgender people have rights because we voted for them to have them. In Iran, homosexuals are forced to undergo sexual reassignment surgery even if they aren't trans or be killed. That's clearly not progressive.
>>
>>70489627

Most of those posting under the US flag on /int/, are self-hating whites and millennial progressives of the following type:

Where they can be found, they should be killed, mutilated or sexually assaulted.

I know that's why I'm saying instead of looking at issues through a checkbox it pays to take a holistic view of things. In Iran many trans people have been helped but by the same token the same elements that were used to do this have been used to surpress and hurt gay people.
>>
>>70490384
Do you ever get tired of posting this? Do you have like a notepad file with all your pastas saved to them? We all know you hate America by now.

>I know that's why I'm saying instead of looking at issues through a checkbox it pays to take a holistic view of things.
I agree. I tried to imply that by lumping abortion and acceptance of homosexuality together, because I can't think of a conservative culture that approves of both.

What do you think of progressive issues like climate change or sex education? I see you complain about multiculturalism a lot, but not the other progressive issues.
>>
>>70490566
Ok now I understand what you meant. I agree for the record.
>>
>>70490566
You dirty, fucking progressive

>>70490581
> climate change
Probably not man made but we should take steps to reduce emissions as there are other benefits like reducing waste and pollution

>>70490581
> sex education

This is a progressive issue? Every country does sex education, do you mean teaching abstinence or how to safe sex? There is no point in the first, you don't need special training to refrain from sex, everyone on /int/ does it by default
>>
>>70495082
>You dirty, fucking progressive
Whatever, you can't kill me like you fantasize about so often.

>This is a progressive issue?
Yes, conservatives in the US often don't believe the schools should have sex ed. My school taught abstinence only sex ed.
