So the TL;DR is, I've been looking around online for statistics on which percentage of races adopt other races and cannot really find anything.

Here's the story:

So I was listening to NPR about this black lady who was adopted by white people. Basically the thesis of her argument was "I never felt like I got the kind of black 'cultural' upbringing and felt marginalized by my adoptive parents." Sure, she tried to hedge that message with lots of "of course I loved them," and "they just saw me as their daughter," but the message was pretty clear, her being raised by white people somehow diminished her "blackness" and when she was around a majority black population she felt "seen" (she of course related a handful of unrelated racist events in her life to support her feelings).

This made me wonder, if being adopted by a white family and raised by white parents, in a white community, diminished her black racial identity, would the same happen to white kids adopted and raised by blacks in black communities.

And then I started wondering: exactly how many black kids, percentage wise, are adopted by fully white families, and (more importantly) vice versa.

Aside from the (overblown) articles of a black celebrity adopting white kids, and a few anecdotal stories, I could not really find hard numbers on this. I wonder if /pol/ can work it's collective magic on this.

Ultimately, I just feel like, if you're going to bash your adoptive parents for not giving you the 'black' experience you wanted (but who simultaneously saved you from an obvious life of poverty) maybe you should look at your community and ask why they aren't doing more?

The T*rkish Ottoman Empire was among the first nation to decriminalize homosexuality, in 1858

The T*rkish Sufi "mysticism" cult included the "sema" ceremony, in which Sufis would sit in a circle and contemplate "beautiful boys". The rite was also known as "boy gazing".

The Ottoman T*rk Army, even during the First World War, was infamous for homosexual rape, with officers and even common soldiers routinely raping the young, the good-looking, and the weak among their ranks, and even prostituting their comrades out to other soldiers

The famous Turkish proverb "women for breeding, boys for pleasure, and melons for sheer delight" speaks for itself.

Is sodomy a T*rkish tradition?

"Sally Hemings was just 14 years old when Thomas Jefferson began using her for sex. Hemings was just 16 years old when she had her first child by him. This continued, unabated, for decades. It's not love. It's not romantic. It's sexual assault and sexual abuse. The children that were produced from this were also forced into slavery. Again, that's not love or kindness — it's an unspeakable horror."


"When a man has sex with a human being he owns, consent is forced, no matter the circumstance. This is doubly true of any enslaved African living at Monticello — where whippings and punishments have been well-documented.

Hemings, and others enslaved there, had no sincere choice but to serve those who claimed ownership over them or suffer the consequences. This fundamental principle is the bedrock of slavery. It does not exist without it."


"Thomas Jefferson was not some victim of time because he just happened to be born in an era in which people were confused as to whether slavery was evil.

He knew good and well it was as evil then as it would be today, but he deliberately and purposefully maintained the system of slavery not only in his own life, but also for the nation.

As President of the United States, he did absolutely nothing to slow slavery down. As the physical owner of 600 human beings who openly admitted he knew what he was doing was evil, he made a daily decision to be evil."

>Japan is drowning in a surplus of jobs, and while that may sound like the pinnacle of capitalist aspirations, it’s actually a huge economic problem.

>By some estimates, Japan needs an average of 609,000 immigrants per year for nearly 50 years to reestablish its peak workforce of the 1990s bubble years. If, hypothetically, Japan were to suddenly throw its doors open and take in every one of the 170,000 refugees the UN anticipates resettling this year, that gap would not even be close to plugged.

>“You can save the lives of 30 or 40 people at a refugee camp overseas by using the same amount of money as accepting one refugee in Japan,” said Saburo Takizawa, a former UNHCR representative in Japan.

>Prime minister Abe’s adviser Masahiko Shibayama said that Japan has “an allergy toward the word ‘immigration,’” and, yes, even in a place with a job glut, there are fears that immigrants will ‘steal’ jobs. “People are worried about public security. They worry that foreign workers would eat up Japanese jobs,” he said.

>On the outskirts of Tokyo, a neighborhood locally dubbed “Warabistan” has cropped up to accommodate the Kurdish asylum seekers who staff construction sites and convenience stores. Government-funded road projects and Subaru cars plants have both benefitted from asylum seekers’ work. In 2015, asylum seekers were even found removing radioactive contamination at Fukushima—under the false pretense that they would be given visas in return.

Lol. Even if he won WW2, Germany would've collapsed under its own weight. (At least after they ran out of stuff to steal.)
