Is it okay to be proud of your heritage and race?

[TBear]

Proud to be part of the Human Race. Some of the time.

Of course it is, it would be dumb as hell not to be proud of it.

Asides from that, I despise this BS nonsense that some people call "cultural appropriation", only a brain dead individual could come up with something as ****** as that and get offended by it.

I'd love to show people stuff from the island like:



Mofongo con carne frita.



Old San Juan.



Beaches.

Come, visit us...you'll have a blast

I'm not real big on being proud of things you have no control over. Being proud about your own accomplishments is more important to me.

You can't say I was born American. I did that. I chose that.

You can, however, say that I earned the promotion. I did that. I'm proud of that. Or I married a great woman. I got her. I made that happen. I'm proud of that.

Maks more sense to me but to each their own of course...

True that..
Reminds me of what George Carlin said in one of his standup I was watching the other day..

Is it okay to be proud of your heritage, culture, race, all that stuff? Or is that racist?

Yes, absolutely, as long as you are not white!

Nice! Looks like a wonderful place. Thanks.

Fool. You're not proud of being "white." You're proud of being Irish, German, whatever the case may be.

You have to make every single issue about "*******" vs "conservative." There are infinitely more ways to think about things yet you insist on believing there are only those two.

Yeah he's an ******* for sure. I blocked him so I don't have to read his nonsense.

[DuckAdonis]

Yes...i'm very proud to be a European
