White Social Media is Intrinsically Racist
Cultural hegemony and the West's Passive-Aggressive Bigotry
Cultural hegemony doesn't need to fight for prominence or attention. They already have it due to historical factors affording them such a position. It is only those who stand up against it whom have no choice but to be vocal and vociferous.
That is when western social media's 'community standards' will silence them for 'criticising another group' or 'saying another is morally inferior'.
But the fact of the matter is, those with cultural hegemony don't need to criticise anyone. They don't need to say anyone is morally inferior. They can just promote what they like as 'normal', or the 'standard' and THEREFORE superior, and leave out all other standards and THUS imply their inferiority explicitly.
For instance, the west doesn't need to actually go out and say that Indian standards are inferior. They can just promote white standards as superior; point to mass white support for it in the west to 'prove' it; promote it in all their news, movies and sitcoms to the whole world; and highlight support for it in various countries, including those countries whose standards they want to present as inferior. And whilst they are doing this, they are also censoring intelligent and cultural views against what they are promoting from those countries.
Forget about 'fake news'. One can easily check on its veracity. But the bigger problem is 'Skewed News', where information is structured in a way to deliver a particular result by covering one aspect in favour of another. For instance, i have noted in the past, when looking at BBC posts for 2 weeks, a trend in presenting white people as problem solvers, heroes, etc, whilst non-whites are presented as the inverse. When it comes to news about other cultures, they will seek out those hilarious aspects of it, and completely leave out all its significant aspects. In the long run, this takes a great toll on global perceptions of the whites vs the rest, and even their own cultures. That is how the west, through Social Media, News, and Entertainment, conscripts people to overthrow their own cultures in favour of their own.
- antonio gramsci
Their news and entertainment media daily implies the inferiority of all others by only paying attention to the 1% negative elements of other cultures, and present that as 100% of their cultures. For instance, the western media presents India as the rape capital of the world, and implies the moral inferiority of their culture and people, WHILE completely going silent about the fact that the US, has close to 20 times the rape cases compared to India.
In other words,
1. the few negatives the west seek out in other cultures are presented as definitive of other cultures since no attention is paid to the rest of the 99% of its good;
2. when they point out the negative in other cultures, they remain silent about it being worse in their own country; and
3. all the negatives in the west is presented as positive because they say so, despite other cultures thinking it wrong.
It is this that delivers minds from across the globe to the west to be 'bred white'.
And this is done by simply being silent, or censoring, all other aspects or superior aspects of other cultures that have no equivalent in the west. It is very underhanded, insidious, and downright reprehensible.
This is done daily by their broadcast news and entertainment industry, and translates to billions upon billions in profits on a daily basis as people buy up everything western because it is western. Even to the point of deeming the western suit and tie a symbol of respectability. This sort of cultural hegemony basically maintains their economic hegemony. So while you are being taught that LGBT is normal in their movies, you are also being taught that your cultural standards in all things are rubbish for not being as they are, and therefore, all your cultural productions are rubbish by being a product of your rubbish cultural standards. And people are paying them money to be told this?
And all this money goes into their advertising campaign to maintain all of this, on top of giving them the money to be economically, politically, and militarily ascendant. So, in other words, you are paying to watch their advertisements telling you that you culture is rubbish, and that you need to just abide by whatever they like or say. The same thing applies to their papacy. Even as a catholic, i cannot help but notice that how the west puts down the rest of the world in the secular arena, the papacy and Vatican does so spiritually. We are flanked by Apple on the one side, and those who tell us to refrain from it on the other. And both are white, both are western.
That is the passive-aggressive bigotry that is inbuilt in the 'community standards' of the Western Social Media Complex that in effect constantly seeks to breed everyone white, while silencing those who have no choice but to be vocal and attack such standards.
In the past, the children of those whom were half-black and half-white, or even those whom were black, were taken away by white colonialists to be 'bred white'. Now, they are doing the same thing by silencing those who fight against western cultural imposition online so that the children of the entire world can be bred white.
To Resist Western Indoctrination is Hate-Speech?
The only way to fight cultural imposition and the culture of another being presented as superior is to actually argue that it is morally inferior. There is no other way to do it. Those who promote a cultural standard as superior can do so without saying all others are inferior. That is the politically correct and pervasive 'modern' version of white supremacism. They don't need to say you're fucked up. They just have to present themselves as Marvel Heroes and you as people whom need saving from global catastrophes, and you are thus trained to view his burp and fart as scent deserving bottling for global sale.
If one was to present one race as superior, it is immediately the responsibility of all races to prove their inferiority in any aspects that they are inferior in, or risk being assimilated to what is inferior. The same goes for boardroom meetings does it not? Any idea that is proposed is scrutinised for its inferior aspects isn't it. That isn't racist, it is simple logic. And that exactly applies in the face of White Social Media.
So, the only way to counter cultural imposition is to either speak up about what's good about your culture, or criticise the racial supremacists agenda directly. But the former isn't going to work because you don't have cultural hegemony, and people have already been trained to ignore your culture by the west.
Hence, the only way is to directly criticise the imposing culture. And that is when Facebook silences you for implying that they are morally inferior. It is a catch 22 situation for us non-whites, and the Western Social Media Complex thrives on this. This is basically the last post-colonial cleanup of all opposition to 'being bred white'. That is why the so-called 'Age of Information' is in effect the Age of Assimilation.
If the west tries to impose a particular idea as normal, in opposition to 80% of the cultures and civilisations of the world, like LGBT, amongst the rest of the world, that is basically explicitly implying that those who don't agree with their LGBT ideology are morally inferior. If not, why would they demand that the world over abide by it?
Western Social Media's slogan, as overwhelming evidence suggests, appears to be, 'If you can't say anything nice about what we like and want your children to like, shut up, or we'll shut you up!'
But if WE stand up and say that LGBT is morally inferior, Facebook shuts us down for 'hate speech'. Facebook, thus, in effect, becomes a white and western supremacist tool shutting down all opposition to that which is 'trending' in the west till our children at tender ages can turn to adults and call them 'homophobes' to 'old fashioned' (which is another term for 'not being as white people are today).
The 80% of the world, that is us, really need to breakaway from these neo-colonial white supremacist pricks, or risk having our cultures, and cultural perspectives censored and censured by white people, or those in their employ.
The thing about white social media is that they think twice about angering rights groups in the west as they have organisations and members there, and they can directly take on Social Media at their company headquarters. So they leave groups like the Black Lives Matter movement alone. But as for the 70% or 80% of the world with no representation where their CEO and board of directors sleep, they can just ignore us.
One can draw parallels between this and American and British terrorism in the middle east. They can impose embargoes that kill hundreds of thousands of children in Iraq with impunity because Iraq is a foreign state. But they wouldn't dare do that to their own local population for fear of homebound repercussions. The exact same thing applies here. They can silence people as numerous as the entire United States, and don't need to fear repercussions.
The whole of western social media's 'community standards' ignore one fact - the coming together of cultures, or the globalisation of cultures, will necessarily mean comparison and contrast of various approaches to reality; the promotion of some at the expense of others; and THEREFORE, the ensuing criticisms that will necessarily imply moral inferiority and perspectival deficiency.
There is no way one can resist or oppose something other than by implying moral and perspectival deficiency. How else can one argue against something? By saying something is different? The chinese do that sort of thing in asia, but that is just irrationally bigoted. The alternative to opposition is to just accept it. And that cannot be countenanced if it affects one's interests.
Live and let live is fine on an island with a population of one, not in an culturally and ideologically interdependent environment. Social Media's 'community standards' is akin to saying, 'nobody can oppose what another is promoting', WHILE knowing full well that the west is in the best position to promote anything given their cultural and informational hegemony. Western Social Media's slogan, as overwhelming evidence suggests, appears to be, 'If you can't say anything nice about what we like and want your children to like, shut up, or we'll shut you up!'
Cultural Dialecticism
Moral inferiority and perspectival deficiency is a fact emerging from variances in history and culture, just as it is the case in variances in child-rearing habits. There is no such thing as a perfect culture. All cultures will have deficiencies and proficiencies, and people getting used to getting around the former, thus perpetuating it, whilst banking on the latter, and also developing other attributes, both good or abjectly bad in order to put up with evils. That is how evil in all cultures can be perpetuated, and also adopted by the population through desensitisation to it.
It is only with the coming together of cultures that solutions can be found to get rid of evils one has become desensitised to, or adopted as a result. It is the coming together of cultures that leads to REsensitisation of those aspects of one's awareness and humanity that has been sedated by desensitisation and compensation for its negative effects via other means.
The notion that one ought to simply 'respect other's cultures' is as absolutely asinine as accepting both good and bad ideas in a boardroom meeting as equally good because all those attending it must be respected.
When Facebook, for instance, silences an Indian for attacking western standards that are impacting Indian society, they are not only implying that Indians standards are morally inferior and cannot be used to critique the west, but that western standards cannot be criticised EVEN THOUGH it impacts Indian society. That is not only passive-aggressive bigotry on the part of Social Media's 'community standards' but neo-colonial white supremacism that expects conformity without resistance, or else.
The good elements of all cultures are providentially (or divinely) purposed to weed out the bad elements of all cultures. It is the 'survival of the fittest ideas'. And what ideas are the fittest will also be based on our increasing awareness of various aspects of our human potentials that we will all be awakened to as we look at what potentials have been developed in this and that culture. So the Survival of the Fittest Ideas will be paired with 'the best ideas that will also develop all of our human potentials' instead of just the fastest way to make a quick buck.
The noose they put around the necks of our ancestors for resisting their colonial rampages, has now been moved to the mouth of their descendants for questioning their cultural impositions. And this is nothing short of a declaration of war against all cultures of the world.
And all of this can only be made possible by cross-cultural critique, which means cross-implication of moral, social, cultural, political, economic, philosophical, entertainment, etc, inferiority. One cannot know what is superior without knowing what is inferior, and one cannot promote something as superior without implying an alternative is inferior.
When Facebook, for instance, silences an Indian for attacking western standards that are impacting Indian society, they are not only implying that Indians standards are morally inferior and cannot be used to critique the west, but that western standards cannot be criticised EVEN THOUGH it impacts Indian society. That is not only passive-aggressive bigotry on the part of Social Media's 'community standards' but neo-colonial white supremacism that expects conformity without resistance. The noose they put around the necks of our ancestors for resisting their colonial rampages, has now been moved to the mouth of their descendants for questioning their cultural impositions. And this is nothing short of a declaration of war against all cultures of the world.
The only censor of bad ideas must be debate. He who censors bad ideas censors debate, and puts forth his standards as beyond debate. Such a people must be resisted by any means necessary.
Just 'respecting all cultures' leaves us all open to the influences of the bad elements of all cultures and perpetuating it, and also enables cultures that hog the stage full right of way in monopolising and directing our cultural imagination. Censoring criticism from cultural standpoints is nothing short of promoting viewpoints of the culture that is criticised, and that is what the Western Social Media Complex is doing since colonial times - i did my honours thesis on that.
The only censor of bad ideas must be debate. He who censors bad ideas censors debate, and puts forth his standards as beyond debate. If cultural hegemony is true, then such censorship will inevitably work in their favour at the expense of all difference that challenges it by daring to be vocal.
That is fascism.
