2.) who cares if you've heard it before, obviously you didnt understand it the first time because you've chosen to insult me by telling me my argument is baseless when in fact its basis is formed from my culture. To me, you come across as insulting my culture. Not a very good diplomatic move.
Your "culture." Your "culture" tells you what to think?
Our "culture" tells us that mutant women who are 5'9" and 105 lbs are the ideal we should all strive for, creating an epidemic of women and girls with anorexia. But hey, it's okay if they kill themselves by slow starvation, because their "culture" told them to do it, right?
A number of tribal "cultures" in the Middle East and Africa like to slice the genitalia off little girls, which--if it doesn't kill them--impairs their sexual function for life. The United Nations and W.H.O. call this a human rights violation and have asked for a world-wide ban on the process. But, golly, their "culture" tells them it's okay, so it must be just dandy, right?
Our "culture" told us that it was okay to enslave black people, that they weren't actually humans at all, but animals. That we could force them to do our labor for us, house them in abominable conditions, rape them, sell their children right out of their arms, put them on the auction block to be felt up and inspected like heads of cattle. Now the very idea is abhorrent to us, but it must have actually been a swell idea, because our "culture" told us it was okay, right?
Whew! Calling you a "fu
cking idiot didn't even come close to addressing how profoundly stupid you are.
