Because they didn't experience slavery, or true oppression.
They experience financial oppression and if they are ever in any kind of legal trouble they hahve historically even in the last 10 years gotten the brutal end of enforcement.
Their ancestors being what they are is relevant. They know stories most bury about how far slavery went. There has never been an actual proper restoration, retribution nor apology given for the slavery it's just 'get over it' even though they still experience a lot of setbacks today.

What makes a man a man overall isthat when there is no reason to improve something, refine it or change it,the man will still push to evolve and change it,the woman will maintain it.In my opinion this is the biggest thing that makes a man a man as opposed to a woman that I have seen during my own life.

I am simply explaining what a man should be rather than what all men are.
So your topic is not what makes a man a man but what makes an ideal man as opposed to a typical 'man'.

Sure thing, I'm not into the bullying I receive here, stay and rot with the rest here, I'll be quitting in due time, don't worry. You literally have nothing to contribute here on the entire debates section, it's quite 'gross' to see indeed, that people like you can somehow sit there talking shit and not told what little you contribute here.
I'm done replying to your bullying from this point. Just fancied seeing if there was actual depth to your attacks on my mafia prowess and all you did was go elsewhere until you think I feel hurt because you're so worthless at the very essence of this website (debating) that you need to ad hom to cope, like a crutch for your brain lmfao.

King Ghezo's reign was marked by great battles and significant changes to the empire, including the elevation of the Agojie. These "Dahomey Amazon" were pivotal to the defeat of Oyo Empire. His reign also cemented the Kingdom of Dahomey as one of the most powerful African kingdoms that stood against British attempts, with Egba support, at converting people to Christianity, and maintained their traditional religion, known as Vodun. He abolished the human sacrifice of slaves and removed the death penalty for certain lesser offenses, such as adultery. Despite the kingdom's history of brutality, King Ghezo was often characterized as honorable and unconquerable, even by his enemies. British missionary Thomas Birch Freeman also depicted him as "one of the most remarkable men of his age, whether we consider him in his private capacity as a man, or as a warrior and a statesmen."[16]
Ghezo was the male king before he let the leader of the Agojie to become a woman King alongside him, in the movie. I don't really care what you're saying it was a phenomenal movie to me. You are correct it lies and implies the Dahomey were more benevolent than they actually were.

And there isn't any deep rage towards blacks, if that were the case, then slavery in America would still exist.
I said rage and agony amongst blacks towards slavers. There is a rage among them that is often demonised because you don't understand what they're furious about. I think this movie showed both feminist and racial double standards throughout history and the rage attached in a very brilliant masterpiece. You really felt the rage build in you and joy as they sliced up the slavers, in my opinion. It's very easy to go 'omg pacifism' until you see what they're up against and that violence felt like the only option.

I think you described men through the eyes of an idealist female being.
You did not describe men from the side of reality or how men themselves actually feel they are. You are trying to say men 'should be' this way but your justification is that it's their destiny to be that way, which is untrue if not all of them are that way.
I think what makes a man a man is not what you said, I totally get why you think that though and as you are right-wing it makes sense that you do.
What makes a man a man overall is that when there is no reason to improve something, refine it or change it, the man will still push to evolve and change it, the woman will maintain it. In my opinion this is the biggest thing that makes a man a man as opposed to a woman that I have seen during my own life.

If a woman wears a strapon or uses a dildo, she is still a woman but she 'has' a dick on her person then, yes?
When a woman is fucked is she a man while the dick is inside her?

As I say, I can wipe the floor with scum to the most severe degree but because of the way I do it and fact that what I type is not always my real reasoning or thoughts, I look lucky by the end.
Again and again on all sites I played mafia on, I am not fearkilled despite brutally good winrates etc. Not sure why but I love it, it lets me perpetually pull off the edge. I have not gotten to truly flex how incredible I am as scum yet. I am one if the best bus-victims ever, I know how to make my partner get townread as long as they play their part and act decently well.
I would hate to be fearkilled every np1 or fearlynched and stuff, I love that people have dunning kruger and ignore my irrefutable skill and I end up carrying over and over again.
That2user and ilikepie5 are actually good, the rest of you do not know how to play mafia, you fluke at times. That2user and Ilikepie5 are genuinely difficult to read, they have sufficient obfuscation to their scum vs town meta.

There are three types of enemy:
- The type you can use.
- The type who will use you.
- The useless obstacle.
Avoid keeping type 1 as your enemy, keep 2 and 3 as your enemy as long as is possible.

Can you give me the proof that the Dahomey people were the worst slavers in history? How is it even possible to be worse than the ones trading with them and goading them into continuing it?
How much research has really been done into this? How are we so sure the slavers didnt rewrite the history?
Show me the facts and metrics on which the dahomey people are the worst slavers.

The men were not emasculated at all, the male warriors actually had more privilege as they could have sex and get married, the female ones had to make an oath of heterosexual celibacy.

It is implied in the movie that the king who let her rise alongside him (they didn't have the word queen then and they were not together in that way) had been negotiating and trading with the slavers before she said enough is enough.
The movie shows something way beyond that. I think a lot of people today do not comprehend why there is deep rage and agony amongst blacks. This movie shows what ne er ever got proper justice done for.

Surpassed my expectations in every regard. Total. Fucking. Masterpiece.
spoiler warning
Feminism in its raw, ferocious form but not hating the men that are good. Black pride in its purest, unadultered, undeniably visceral and justifiable form, the way it makes you feel their rage, to actually comprehend how they felt a release way beyond freedom and safety as they killed and beat the shit out of the white and black slavers alike is built up to in the best way possible.
Seriously proper spoiler warning
When she kills her former rapist in front of their illegitimate daughter who she is not sure is even safe at that point, just that she is alive and is a traded slave probably... the scene is something so fucking powerful words cannot do it justice.
Acting 10, cinematography 10, FUCK it was Amazing, I was ready to cringe at some things or find it too predictable but the flow of scenes was so peculiar in a great way. You had no idea what mood or pace the next scene would have. The accents were done so accurate.

I do not mind it if a guy is feminine but I think I get how gay guys feel about lesbians going at it in front of them and maybe even straight sex, it really is offputting to me to see gay stuff.
If I see two men really going at it, it makes me involuntarily feel like if I see something yucky or ate really sour, bitter food unless I work to hide the look on my face. I wondered if this means I am a homophobe or just too hetero to enjoy it.

Regarding the situation, it is nothing new to me. These types of scams are being run everywhere by all sorts, an Indian-American doing literal slave labour for his social media series or whatever is nothing rare I would presume. He's just the latest one exposed and now it's in a loud way.
There's all sorts of con artistry out there, you can never really be safe. I doubt he feels a shred of guilt about it, he sees those he fooled as absolutely deserving of it.

@Sir.Lancelot
The problem is that in Indian culture (and this is seriously true) scamming is actually a part of it, they are one of the only cultures to genuinely go 'you should have seen that coming' when someone gets scammed.
If you think I am lying, I would like you to research the rate of scamming being in India vs the rest of the world. As in international scamming organisations tend to run their scams specifically through India because the repercussions there are the most lenient on the entire planet.
To learn to cheat in India is to learn how to survive. If you don’t, society will treat you as an imbecile who never grew up. Like the freelance writer.The working principle is this: If you don’t exploit, then you will automatically become the exploited. What happens then is that since everyone is cheating everybody else, all this cheating cancels each other out in the final sum. No one really gains. But it’s something we are habituated and genetically inclined to do, like the way we drive. It’s a mix of nature and culture.
Yes, he is American by nationality but there is something to consider about why he felt it was okay and why it is so extremely prevalent. I am aware how extremely controversial what I am saying is and I don't really care.
This is not about race but you can brand it that way, I wouldn't say this irl unless around people I really trusted. It is a fundamental part of most Indian cultures (there are different castes and subcultures there) to see those that get fooled as stupid and deserving of it, it surely carries over to how they raise children abroad even as immigrants. It is actually present throughout all of Asia, India is just most prevalent at the frequency of it in terms of how often scams occur there. It is changing in the current generation, there's definitely a growing sensitivity and empathy in the latest generation there but it is still very harsh to the naive.
An American person of Indian ethnicity was probably raised with this harshness in mind. I wouldn't be surprised to find plenty other who run scams in US whether social media slave labour Dhar Mann schemes or not. The question is what could have been done differently in schooling or whatever to make this guy get empathy for his victims of scamming earlier, to me that is the crucial thing to answer.

@Best.Korea
Instead of spanking, things like water treatment, raising one's voice (which hurt their ears much more than for humans) and such are forms of corporal punishment for dogs and they do react well but they also need treats and rewards for good behaviour.
Parenting lacking in positive feedback for good behaviour is toxic. Parenting lacking in any discipline is also toxic in a different way.

For topic 3 if the very reason that certain ethnicities run from the cops, resist arrest more violently and/or are overall less cooperative is due to racist approached from the cops traumatising their elders and even peers and leading to a phobia of cops as well as the cops being more anticipating of an abrasive interaction, these things combined can lead to topic 3 getting very muddied especially with how long of a topic title you gave.

If racism is in a culture then you can win that debate either way around with how it's currently worded since if I prove racism is a cause for inequality, you can say that's the culture not the race.

I do play a bit differently elsewhere though, with a group of pure strangers I definitely opt to be more straight forwardly Towny and not some 'brute' DP1 but I am very active and time my entries to games only when I have time and energy to be that active throughout (especially during earlier days).
Here, since it's a small community and people know I play high pressure and tunnel people as Town, even OMGUS people as Town at times, I get much more leeway to put pressure. My role that game complimented my playstyle massively well because the DP1 literally has to revolve around the Senator outing there in most scenarios.

People think I am easy to read because I've been Town so ridiculously much on here, so by Best Korea's gambler fallacy logic which is slightly accurate, I will end up scum some time soon and it's why I don't want to queue up much onto pof being busy irl the next 3 months for sure.
I am not sure what Badger means by this:
In fact, this was BK's big towntell D1 in trying to pawn off responsibility on cleared RM, and I pointed that out. He's actually interesting to play with insofar as he's so obvious. But none of us are so far advanced from what he is.
I disagree to most of this minus the part that BK is indeed easy to read for other reasons.
I am very advanced past that and the one time I was scum with total lurkers as teammates (iirc, Supadudz was one of them lol) that didn't try at all, I won a cop cc I think it was. Then naturally I was lynched the next day due to them having voted off the real cop and my teammates were hopeless, I even tried to distance myself from them but to no avail.
I am not easy to read whatsoever, if you notice I often semi-slip and do crazy things as Town here, it's to cover my bases, I am going to be so easily forgiven when I am scum because I can be chaotic and just keep pressuring. In a small community like this, you are able to maximise your Town games by playing sloppy on purpose. That lets you slip as scum and play it off with ease.
If I always follow a rigid format of behaviour and logic, it doesn't do me any favours. One meta thing about me is I go hard as fuck DP1 no matter what but I like that. Mafia for me is an earlygame-heavy game in its apex format. In other words, for most people Mafia builds over time, they try least DP1 and most in the 3-way or 5-way etc. I see it the other way around, I create pressure like a maniac from DP1's start to the bitter end of the game or when I die, whichever comes first. That style can help me as scum too, lets me notice PRs who stay quiet and vice versa. The fact my Town meta is so scummy is excellent for me, I am truly unreadable in my opinion and would truly fear myself as an opponent in this game on here.
Elsewhere, if I cared for serious forum mafia long-term, I definitely pace myself more but pressuring to annoying degrees DP1 relative to the norm has always been my meta ever since I got good at mafia and always will be. There's no reason to change it at all in my opinion.

@Reece101
The true path to paganism is to abhor organised religion altogether.
Wicca is a lie and polytheist-witch (the user) actually agreed, she is was a Heathen and a spiritualist, not a wiccan. If you are Wiccan, you are part of an organised religion, that's all I will say. You are blindly abiding by scripture and fairytales that tell you to live live a specific way and are all about feeling included into a certain social circle (which is mainly lesbians so I'm not sure what your nephew is there for).
