What is "western civilization"? It seems that no matter what your political position on the right of the spectrum, it seems the one thing everyone has in common is they want to "save the west".

So what is "the west"?

It's starting to sound like code for white people tbqh familia.

>What is "western civilization"?

Individualism, classical liberalism, capitalism, science and reason as a method for determining truth, a belief in objective reality, and the separation of church & state allowing for freedom of conscience and belief. Also, the cultural history that led to these beliefs, starting with the Greeks, to the Enlightenment and beyond.

It is white people.
We're a group at risk of being wiped out by politicians who hate us because of our skin colour and we want to be saved.
Because genocide is wrong and all that.

Western Civilization is a meaningless buzzword thrown.

Trust me Winston, it's a death trap. Irish came over here. They had their own culture. Over the years they assimilated to "white" or "western" culture. Now all they have is a parade where they get drunk once a year. Same thing happened with the Germans, Italians, French, and even the British founders.

It creates bastardized whites with no coherent identity. Since they are racially confused, they are more likely to race mix.

If you moved to America and had kids, they would forget what it's like to be British.

"White Culture" and "Western Society" in America isn't much of anything, which is why money is king. Whatever concept of culture is subordinate.

Broadly speaking, Rome split East vs. West on its way to collapse. Western civilization refers to those civilizations that came out of the remnants of the Western half.

It gets fuzzy in places of course, but a common dividing line is whether an area is mainly historically Roman Cathlic or wehther an area is mainly historically Orthodox.

So you've got Western Europe for sure, the US, arguably Latin America, Australia, etc. It all sort of grew and merged it's way out of the Western half of Rome.

How far do you atomize people? Why draw the lines between peoples at the lines that exist on a modern atlas when those lines only existed for a few short centuries and have been erased and redrawn even in the last few decades.

Germany was once a dozen different principalities. Should they not mix with each other? Should the Bavarians not mix with the Württembergers? Or the Burgunds with the Franks? Or the Angles with the Mercians?

Your notions stink of Marxism. You are trying to divide people into oppressed and oppressors just like the progressives.
