[Ursus arctos horribilis]

"I don't understand your ranting about race."


Methinks you understand very little of which you speak, but if speak you must, then speak for yourself, not for others. You stated Whites have no bond to other Whites as a whole, only to their own particular White ethnicity. That leads me to paraphrase one Priscilla Mullins, "speak for yourself, John Alden".

I am ethnic nothing, not Pole, Dane, English, German, or (fill in the blank) American, but a White American. I have no bond to any one certain White ethnicity, but a bond to them all as Whites. I am first an American, second, I am a White American, and I am very proud to be both.

You stated Whites have no bond to other Whites as a whole, only to their own particular White ethnicity.

I have never stated that. You're involved in a typical strawman fallacy.

The 'Strawman' fallacy consists of creating a flimsy caricature of your opponents view, and then demolishing it, rather than arguing against your opponents actual views.

'Strawman' is one of the best-named fallacies, because its name vividly illustrates the nature of the fallacy. Imagine a fight in which one of the combatants sets up a man of straw, attacks it, then proclaims victory. All the while, the real opponent stands by untouched. In a dialectical contest, this is what the Strawman amounts to.

For example:

george wythe: Larry King does not have strong muscles.

strawman answers: You said that Larry King has no muscles.

Another example:

george wythe: Caucasians do not have a strong ethnic bondage similar to blacks or Hispanics

Ursus arctos horribilis: You stated Whites have no bond to other Whites as a whole, only to their own particular White ethnicity.

I definately don't have a strong bond to your fallacious reasoning.

How about a bond to human beings instead of just 'white people'? There are many white people who live in other countries who would not feel particularly bonded to you just based on your skin color.
