lol aww thanks for the compliment.

do you have any disagreements with what I said?

[Anonymouse]

you should be MAD!

All the Armenian girls are turning into xxxxxs, common Latin xxxxs!!!

Go on Armenianclub.com and browse through the pictures of the girls, all "ghetto" taking pride in their big ass' and their poor negroid language. It just sucks to hear this happens to Armenian girls, the "best" girls out there. But hey, after all, "no race is perfect and we are better than hispanics". Fools.

you do realize, it is the girls fault that they get pregnant. They can always say No, but they dont. They always go after the jerks while bit*hing how they would rather have an intelligent man. It has happened to me soo many times. I am the smartest kid in class, I always bring up top notch political information and I always help everyone (mostly girls) with their work. Then, they b*tch to ME(!!!) how there are no smart guys. Try pointing out the fact tht you are what they are looking for, and they will say, "oh sorry, you are not the one for me".

Anyway, i got side tracked an am really pissed now.

Given that I agree with you about the "Negroidization" of Armenian youth, but perhaps where the chicks stop liking you is your love of yourself. Drop it, you are not God's gift to this planet neither is your brain.

No dear I agree. All I can say is just wait a few years until you are older. Some people actually mature.

Never claimed to be! It is double standards and the lieing that really irritates me.

I hope oyu are right. I am hoping college will be different...for the better.

Now the problem is people mistakenly perceive assimilation as giving up your ethnicity. Why is that? I'm American born and raised. I've gone to American schools, speak English a good 90% of the time, interact with only Americans, and yet, have retained the Armenian language, knowledge of the history, and significant cultural events (celebrating Armenian Christmas - not just Dec. 25th, commemorating April 24th, etc).

I agree with most of what you said, but I'd just like to point out that assimilation IS in fact having lost your heritage and total become whatever culture you're surrounded by. What you're advocating is integration but calling it assimilation. Integration is good, assimilation is bad, and we shouldn't call one by the other. Like I said, over all, good post.

Another lefty whining about the politics of envy and blaming everything on capitalism.

Another psuedo anarchist making completely irrelevant posts, which are hypocritical in nature to his own views.

Not necessarily. Assimilation and integration can be used synonymously. Assimilation merely means to become more like a greater part (minority becoming more like the majority). There are certain degrees of assimilation, as well. It in no way implies you have to morph into the larger group, and completely replace your former culture with it. That inappropriate stigma of a meaning was attached by society, not by Webster's dictionary. But we have the same idea in mind, nonetheless.

Failure to establish hypocrisy, minus 2 points.

Furthermore, blaming capitalism for the evils of society shows your lack of insight regarding history nor economics.

Failure to understand why your response was irrelevant to my post, plus failure to see the collective inconsistencies of your views/criticisms in your posts (aka hypocrisy) = minus all credibility.

How did we get to this score? *Breaks out the spoon* It's feedin' time, again!

A small portion of that 2 page essay you quoted from me was related to capitalism; yet, your sole, out of context (as usual) comment was based on it. I also mentioned pop-culture (which you of course overlooked), but I wasn't about to get into the "negroidization" factor, again. I think we've milked that aspect of Armenians to death on this forum.

Jesus! Do you have amnesia, or something?? You're accusing me of all people of blaming capitalism for the evils of society? After all our little arguments over the matrix philosophy, and how it relates to my views on existence and society? Damn, Mouse. Inch eghav kezi?

Furthermore, me blaming one thing for another has nothing to do with my lack of insight on the subject. You not agreeing with my various conclusions drawn from that insight doesn't mean I don't hold that insight. This is a simple concept you seem to have difficulty grasping. I could just as well say you have a lack of insight as well with some of the preposterous suggestions you've made throughout my time on this forum, but I know better. Believe it or not, I have respect for your knowledge, and lack the ego problem (well, the right type of ego problem, anyway) to say otherwise. I just find the way you apply that knowledge to actual life a tad bit.....over-simplified, for lack of a better term. But anyway, let's not turn this into another one of those you not comprehending my godliness threads, and just get back on subject.
