@geerothvoss@WayneOWastes@saint_witch_ I think the point is that any European could potentially pass as Greek but a sub Saharan African never could. Ergo there is nothing contradictory in believing Matt Damon could play a Greek whilst believing the black woman can't, despite neither being of Greek descent.
@WayneOWastes@CarlGustafEmil4@saint_witch_ Honeypie, I actively refuse to go along with your whims when you cannot be bothered to read the entire thread. It's a very diff thing.
Funny how you have decided I'm a leftist based on that though. Very telling regarding what a rightie would be in contrast 👍🏻
@SoulfulF10720@WayneOWastes@saint_witch_ Actually it's an ethnicity, which is inherently tied to nationality. This is how it works in most of the world outside of North/South America.
@Matt_At_Movies@WayneOWastes@saint_witch_ Yes, this is a Greek politician. Some Greeks have blue eyes, blonde hair and fair skin even if they're a small minority. But none of them look like sub Saharan Africans.
@WayneOWastes@saint_witch_ “can pass for greek” is not an objective category. modern greeks themselves range enormously in appearance. the idea that there is one fixed “greek look” is ahistorical and heavily filtered through hollywood casting conventions. don’t be fucking stupid.
I just finished watching this "debate."
My observations:
- David Wood came to have a conversation about morality and orthobros aligning with Muslims against Christians.
- Andrew Wilson came to win a debate.
Honestly, it was a fairly fruitless discussion in terms of the topics, but it was worth seeing how these guys handled 3 hours of going back and forth.
David came out looking way better, standing firm on what we know are foundational Christian truths.
Andrew seemed to not be able to understand basic Christian beliefs, which was something David hammered on in the middle section. For instance, he appeared to think that "non-denominational" somehow means "I'm hiding what I actually believe." It was just really weird. Maybe he was just playing ignorant?
Has Andrew ever given a steelman definition of a Protestant's view of salvation?
@GreentextWizard "I can't tell the time. But as I was saying, they eat with their hands. And I'm not talking about pizza, I mean like real slop, it's why they have to go. Every one of them.
And, have you seen how disgusting their feet are? Makes me want to puke just thinking about it!"
@Maxxx669045@TmyaTwotter@101st_BTCRanger@SimplyBitcoin@DaveRamseyLIVE Gold went up 157% from 5 years ago till today, bitcoin went up 45% from 5 years ago. Bitcoin went up 178x from 10 years ago gold went up 274% ergo you'd have made more money buying gold 5 years ago than bitcoin and obviously you'd have made more money being bitcoin 10 years ago.
Dave: "Hello caller, you're on the air."
Caller: "I put half my savings into Bitcoin in 2020."
Dave: "Oh no. How much did you lose?"
Caller: "It's up 600%."
Dave: "Well you got lucky. It's not a real asset."
Caller: "What makes something a real asset?"
Dave: "It has to hold value over time."
Caller: "Bitcoin is up 1,000,000% since 2010."
Dave: "That's speculation."
Caller: "I paid off my house with it."
Dave: "..."
Caller: "I thought you liked paying off houses, Dave."
I don’t care what any evangelicals or otherwise think about me calling out @GodLogic_GL if the channels he runs through proxies are boosting anti-Orthodox attacks and propping up the worst (jp / mauler) - that’s an attack on Orthodoxy and Avery is responsible since it’s his official clips channel. ai don’t care if he’s friends with whoever.
Christianity isn’t a cool online club based on who is nice, it’s literally the Orthodox Church. You can’t do Christ without His Church and that goes for anyone in the made up online anti-Islamianity sphere: Ridvan, Wood, Scamoun, Avery, Ruslan, IP. None of these people are Orthodox and to be teachers they need Orthodox doctrine. If Orthodoxy isn’t your standard your assessment is meaningless.
@RagusanMerchant@visegrad24@polonopedia Croatia has Nepalese and Filipinos.... not close to the rapists that have invaded Italy. You can't walk 100 meters in Italy without a woman being harassed by an African rapist. We are not the same...

@fleetwood631@CarlGustafEmil4@not_a_jug@ichanaix Public perception is all that matters. I don't think Poland or Czechia are Eastern European in terms of geography or culture, but it doesn't matter because most people still consider them as Eastern Europe.
@MKM20888@not_a_jug@ichanaix Their language doesn't make them Nordic. Their culture makes them Eastern European in the eyes of everybody but themselves.
@goodboyplongy@KitaguniCoin@not_a_jug@ichanaix Because they were a part of the iron curtain and have a Russian minority. If you're ever in any of the Baltic's you can instantly feel like your in a former soviet country unlike the Nordics that have their own unique culture.
