Preservationism vs Racialism

[Amarantine]

Montenegrins are superior to all other peoples of the world?

wow how you guess ?

When it comes down to height, they probably are

Oh no, we are not modest at all, we are superior in total

[Jarl]

Oh no, we are not modest at all, we are superior in total

Definitely you got nice legs and look sexy while lying in the grass on a field

I am astounded by the number of people who have voted for the first option, when even "Western science" would contradict such a position.

Would those who voted for the first option please elaborate on their positions?

[Æmeric]

In my country we have had two distinct races living side-by-side for over 300-years. No amount of legislation has helped the Negroes raise to the level of the Whites. I voted for option #2.

Option one. I don't believe that any culture/ethnicity is inferior, they are just different and should remain so. Yes some groups are better at some things than others, but we all have different skills, just because I may be more intelligent that my neighbour does not mean that I am inherently better than them, I may be or I may not be. After all we we take the intelligence example, yes Europeans have higher scores than Africans but asians have higher scores than us. So that would mean that they are better than us, which I am not about to accept!

As to Africans not doing as well as whites, no of course they won't they are competing in a white system that we set up for us. One in which their great skills (physical) do not count much, and I certainly don't think we should change that system, I think they should try to set up their own systems in their own countries, rather than copy one which does not work for them.

Im surprised too. I suspected there would be many more racialists here. My position is simple. Obviously distrubution of genes/traits is uneven among populations. Thus certain beneficial combinations might arise in some of them more often than in the others. Just as some peoples are taller than other, some might be more predisposed towards mathemathical thinking etc. Though in every population foe every trait you always get a bell-shaped curve and the vast majority of grey in-betweeners. However, I do not think there is any universally and inherently inferior human race or ethnicity. I see value in preserving culture and heritage of each etnicity, including my own. This also includes its racial/biological character. However I do not attach to this any genetic superiority/inferiority philosophy as I see no reasnoable, scientific grounds for that as well as difficulty in defining "superiority",

[Beorn]

I voted for: "I'm a preservationist, but Im also a racialist and I believe in superiority/inferiority of certain ethnicities/races over others." but would also have added: "(I'm)interested in saving the cultural and genetic heritage of human populations"

[Lady L]

I voted option 2

[Nationalitist]

I'm simply a nationalist. Skin pigmentation worship aka rac(ial)ism is incompatible with traditional nationalism.

That why I asked about your attitude towards races. Not your political option. If you are a nationalist, then you most likely are also a preservationist since I can't think of any nationalist who would encourage mass-immigration and mixing. However, do you believe that certain ethnicities/races are superior to others?
