When I see forums dedicated to European preservation, obviously some things are a `given`..for example, miscgenation is rightly frowned upon and despised, immigration issues are a big concern...
I think for most, if not all, European countries, that is a huge problem and one that concerns us all, yes?
What about online `life`, though?
I`m a member of only two other forums. One is dedicated to all things financial and moneysaving in the UK, the other is a pagan forum I`m no longer active on, but have been there since the beginning, and indeed used to admin and mod.
On both forums (phora? I never know...:D) there are a mixed bag of races and ethnic backgrounds.
I found that the friends I made on both tend to be those of similar ethnic backgrounds and heritage to myself. I never have dialogue nor interraction with people of other races, even through threads, aside from a rather major disagreement with one black person who called me racist because I pulled him up over his signature, which declared how much he objected to whites, illiterate whites and blue collar whites. That this was allowed to stand as a signature in a public forum says much about how fearful and appeasement oriented people have become, online, for fear of offending minorities (I say that tongue in cheek, really) like muslims and vocal blacks.
I was very polite about it, but pointed out that his signature was racist, that if I had put similar, only about objecting to blacks, in mine, it would no doubt be pulled straight away and I would be warned, or banned.
He immediately came back with the stunningly thought out "well, that means YOU are racist for saying so to me"....:rolleyes:
Urk, rambling, sorry.....
point I was trying to make is, are you also a member of other forums which are not exclusively european? If not, is that a deliberate decision? And if so, do you think that is the right mindset or not, given we need to operate in the wider world, and perhaps it pays us to not `hide away` from such situations and places because we have no desire to be in the same space as non Europeans?
I`ve seen, for example, on other forums I`m not a member of, people be quite vehement in their exclusivity of who they encounter. I think this must be hard, online, to control...surely anyone can say they are someone they aren`t, or to be so rigid limits their interraction in the wider world, if that makes sense?
Please note, I`m not saying, go out and mingle willynilly! :D
And I think most folks are sensible, realising that often we have no choice but to interract with people and situations we wouldn`t willingly choose to. For most, I believe we learn to do so with dignity and common sense, keeping our values and principles intact and proud within us.
But I do wonder about those I see who loudly proclaim they will have nothing to do with, e.g., non Germanics/Celts/Scandics. Surely that isn`t practical in todays world?
I am firmly for European preservation. I have fears for the future of the people of my heritage and blood and want to protect that heritage in any way I can.
But I also see that the world around me has changed rapidly and extremely even in the past ten years or so in Britain. There are situations I can`t avoid, perhaps, living where I do, not so much geographically, but online, most certainly.
I work through it by keeping (I hope) my dignity intact, by `displaying` my pride in my culture, heritage and race by the lifestyle I lead, the values I hold, and the way I apply them to everyday life. I don`t, though, bury my head in the sand and say I will refuse to deal with undesirables that cross my path, or by believing I can hide away from the wider world, especially online.
This is probably coming over as quite rambling. I`m a blunt and plain speaking woman and it`s actually quite hard to put a potentially thorny point across with any kind of tact.
I hope I succeeded! If not, feel free to lynch me, in which case I will poke my tongue out at ye.....:dev2
