Left-Wing Discussion Thread

Ruling classes throughout the ages have been of every culture. There have been ruling classes and dynasties that created fine arts and music, and others that created trash.

It doesn't matter. What does matter is wealth and power.

Ah, but it does. You see, those ones that failed weren't of the right stuff. They probably put cream on their scones before jam or something equally savage.

It doesn't matter. What is good and bad culture is subjective.

[Kubra]

There is little use trying to despook a class cuck.

Cuck? How vulgar of you.

let me correct him: cuckold.
That's a more acceptable term, yeah?

It doesn't matter. What is good and bad culture is subjective.

Ah, but here you are most tragically mistaken. All cultures are to be learnt of, experienced et cetera, but some are simply superior.

How does one measure "cultural superiority"?

If you don't know, then it can't be explained to you, because you are obviously one of the inferiors *ducks*

This cultural superiority has historical roots in racism and xenophobia.

If you're just messing, that's one thing, but to believe that some cultures are just more superior than others is, well, off.

are you british

Well, that's a very interesting question. You see, it's hard to gauge and testing to measure and to be frank in no way presents itself to be aqueous in as much as it is slightly subjective. In short, culture is strenuous to define and definition of this ought to be the preserve of the few with the knowledge and cultivation to measure it.

Oh, by no means shun and destroy other cultures. I quite enjoy a bite of nigiri or a slosh of Vodka in much the same way as I love to do the cha cha cha or watch an Irish dance

Then culture does not matter in terms of the ruling class and it's capacity to govern.

Ah but it does. Take Jeremy Corbyn. Resplendent and fine looking as he is in his goat herding attire, it's not parliamentary garments. It's their preserve to know how to dress. Which tie knots for which shirt. When to have a pocket kerchief and to know that the bottom button on the waistcoat, dear lord, must not be done up.

Oh no, don't get me wrong, there's a wonderful zinging exoticness about seeing culture at its raw roots. Natives in grass skirts, snake charmers. Wonderful

For most of history each ruling class didn't have button dresses and pocket kerchiefs.

You're point is irrelevant and silly.
