You're viewing part of a thread.
Some cultures perceive being fat or skinny differently because of the correlation of wealth which changes between impoverished nations and developed nations. Being overly fat or thin purely for cosmetic purposes is almost universally shunned by progressive movements because it is factually and objectively worse than a healthy weight. Skin Tone will be the same way. Future generations will look back and agree with me on this.
Imposing your own ideas on what other cultures ought to feel is the height of arrogance.
Similarly, it's incredibly arrogant to presume that your own "enlightened" attitudes will be more prevalent in the future.
A culture of harm and racism, that sorts people into class by lightness of skin, needs to be imposed over with discrimination of equal or greater measure. Tolerance for the intolerant is unacceptable. Maybe India doesn't see the necessity compared to countries with much more violent racial tensions, but it's a lesson that can be learned an easy way or a hard way.
Nonsense. You're just parroting catch phrases. Perceptions of beauty are not "intolerance".
I sincerely hope that future generations are less judgemental and ready to label those people they don't really understand.
Honestly, just observe other cultures without trying to assess whether they're good or bad. They just are the way they are.
If you believe something fucked up then people are gonna call you out on it. No exceptions. If anything you should be happy others are willing to discuss it with you rather than write you off as unsalvageable or incorrigible.
There there pet. This discussion really hasn't made me happy.
That's called guilt and shame.
I'm not surprised you feel that way, but surprised you admit it. You doing ok bud?
This discussion really hasn’t made me happy.
That’s called guilt and shame.
I know you are, but what am I?
On the flipside the assumption that your culture is the correct way is pretty xenophobic and racist in its own way.
Oh yeah and which culture is that?
I've done nothing but make logical arguments here while you deflect and project.
