I asking him about Estonia outside of the games. You missed the point.

Back to the previous post. Are you conflating fascist states with dictatorships? Surely the rigid class nature of fascism is at odds with the 'classless' society perpetuated by the eastern-bloc?
-
To a degree but that is on the basis that there is an objective moral law. This is the same train of thought used by globalists and interventionism. Where does the right to grant justice come from especially in an instance where there has been no action against any parties? Where does the right to reprimand someone or a group come from when the group hasn't actually done anything? From your perspective you are the good that is enforcing morality, from their perspective you are the evil enforcing it's own morality. I'm more interested in the culture Estonia. Anti-racism isn't an inherent part of 'good'. I'd wager there are more racist cultures in the world than not and I don't readily label all those people as strictly 'evil'. I was merely curious if Estonia was a nation that wasn't fussed by racism.

How is the UK fascist when parties are democratically elected?
-
I wasn't offended and don't apologise. I hate disingenuous remarks. You didn't mean to offend me nor did I take offence so there is nothing to apologise for.
-
But how many truly fascist states have existed? I count one with threeothers being controversial. Italy being the obvious choice, Spain, Austria, and Portugal. The latter two being clerical fascism.
-
That is a contentious statement because there has never been an agreement on what a fascist economy entails. Many scholars are in disagreement if the principals of fascism even address economic issues. The only thing we know for certain is the social aspects of fascism.
-
There is the difference between FB and Manpe. The latter says 'interesting point' and give his reasoning the former lectures with platitudes.
-
That isn't the point. Manpe said' public racists would get their fair treatment in no time by other fans. Would you start a fight or a ruckus without someone that was being racist despite their being no-one around that is the intended target? No one has been discriminated, they aren't defending anyone, it would simply be an exercise in censorship. And from Manpe has said again it'd be better handled by the authorities as it seems the Estonian authorities have a handle on the situation. If I lived in a homogeneous society and a group of young men were spouting racist views down the street, I wouldn't make it my business to lecture them or attack them. I do not have the moral authority to change their minds, I can engage them in open discourse if they are willing but I cannot force a change of ideals. Just because I disagree with them doesn't mean I should intervene; the only time I would intervene if it was in a scenario that endangered another person. Of course ultimately you'd want to cultivate a culture where those sort of people are on the fringes of society but I as an individual have no right to do so. If I stab the air with the knife, I haven't hurt anyone, should I do it? No, I shouldn't.
-
Just curious because most people don't use fascism in the traditional sense anymore. Nothing cracks me up more when people call Hitler a fascist.
-
Were they actual fascists? Like they wanted a totalitarian one-party state with an emphasis on nationalism and military might? I didn't know fascism actually had any sort of movement in England outside of Oswald Mosely.
-
Why would Estonians care about racists when there isn't anyone to be racist towards?
-
Would it really matter though? Why would someone go to the trouble of defending sub-Saharans when the country is nearly 100% white?
-
I thought it was pathetic.

'Premier League proven' means fuck all when all the best players in England are foreign.

Asian girls don't have to date anyone, just like any other race and gender. You don't get privilege of dating someone because you share race. Being half-white doesn't make a difference because the outward appearance is of an Asian; just because someone doesn't find you attractive isn't cause for openly hating race-mixing couples. Shit, I've been told by white women they don't particularly like white guys, they are allowed to. Just a bunch of racists that feel entitled to dating someone because of their ethnicity.

I was reading some shocking stuff on reddit and other websites today. I was unaware that people felt so strongly white male/asian female couples. I had no idea there was such a hatred for me and my missus. Talk about angry racial puritans.
-
I didn't think occupation in SK was that apparent though? I thought it was limited to one base, just like how Japan has the Okinawa base (which from what I've been told is hugely different culturally than the mainlands of Japan). I know a few Americans with Korean heritage and they've told me the culture is very superficial and rotten from the inside. I can't speak from my lack of first hand experience but from the outside looking in it seems like SK has an obsession with beauty and social status.
-
I agree, Costa should go and Chelsea got 100% what they payed for. No more, no less.Torres was on another level of horrible and people would do well to remember that. Costa is very emotional, I imagine he was better at Madrid because he was happier in Madrid. He probably misses Spanish/Latin culture dearly and can't stand not having an afternoon siesta followed by a midnight fiesta.
-
You mean that guy that twisted everyone into a prolapse for nearly five years? Yeah, this is nothing close to Torres.
-
I thought the suicide was a reflection of Eastern shame culture? I though Korea, China, and Japan all had issues with suicide due to the strenuous social and familial demands placed on young people. I also thought that was another reason why videogames and to otaku culture was so prevalent as a means to escape reality through obsessive fiction?
-
I'll use the word however I wish to. The fact remains he is a streaky player and every single one of you was up his arse till a few months ago (OMG we have a proper striker post-Torres coital glow). He maybe not what you want in a centre-forward but it is a cold hard fact that over the last five years he has delivered goals to his team, that and his aggression are the only assets he has every had. I think it was everyone else that expected something different from Costa, not me; the writing was on the wall. An overly-emotional petulant centre-forward capable of goals and red cards. Nobody can act surprised or complain when Chelsea get exactly the player they bought.
-
They are very different players. You should have never expected that from Costa; you have to rate the player based on their individual styles. We can only compare what they have in common and it is true they were both streaky goal scorers but it is also true that Drogba was an asset outside of goals.
-
This is just semantics. Remember I did call his reliability questionable; which is equable to 'streaky' no? Drogba was also very streaky, you cannot forget.
