-- Posted by Bud2400 at 6:44 pm on Dec. 3, 2008   (Larger Image: http://img.golivewire.com/ib/267496_f.jpg) I mean look at that map. Isn't it obvious from that map that all them racist redneck Southerners have chased away all the minorities and never interact with any of them whatsoever? I mean, just look at the diversity loving North, where it's obvious that every individual there interacts with minorities on a daily basis, intermixes with them, and loves it. Oh wait... -- Posted by Rodiggidy at 6:45 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 lol these things are hard to trust -- Posted by Jokerboy719 at 6:45 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 Thats a nice outline of the U.S where did ya get it? -- Posted by kay dee at 6:45 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 ): I'm from the south... And... I'm not racist... PLUS. We have more hispanics here than most states. :/ -- Posted by plumc0la at 6:45 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 Haha. You made me laugh.

I really dont think theres much of a problem with diversity in the US. -- Posted by Forgot My Name at 6:50 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 Diverse=Anti-white So what white in their right mind would embrace it? -- Posted by YarbDog at 6:56 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 Quote: from katiescarlett at 6:45 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 ): I'm from the south...   And...

I get it, the south is the most diversity part of the country, while the north isn't. However, my statement stands. -- Posted by Bud2400 at 7:12 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 Quote: from Forgot my name at 6:50 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 Diverse=Anti-white I'm supposing you're implying that diversity = greater prevalence of non-whites, and the lack of diversity means a greater prevalence of whites? I'd suggest looking at Puerto Rico on the bottom right.  There aren't many whites there, yet its diversity is something like the North's.  Diversity, in plain terms of the context of this map, simply means a greater mix of ethnically different peoples.  For the US mainland, that usually means less diversity = more whites, and that is certainly so of the North. -- Posted by whoisabs at 10:35 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 Don't forget the white blocks in the Rio Grande Valley. -- Posted by kidd rune at 2:38 pm on Dec. 4, 2008 I live in .49-.59 They probably don't like diversity because they experience it :D -- Posted by jakelong at 7:59 pm on Dec. 4, 2008 Good job on failing to see the point of the OP... -- Posted by jakelong at 8:05 pm on Dec. 4, 2008 Quote: from Bud2400 at 7:12 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 Quote: from Forgot my name at 6:50 pm on Dec. 3, 2008 Diverse=Anti-white   I'm supposing you're implying that diversity = greater prevalence of non-whites, and the lack of diversity means a greater prevalence of whites?   I'd suggest looking at Puerto Rico on the bottom right.  There aren't many whites there, yet its diversity is something like the North's.  Diversity, in plain terms of the context of this map, simply means a greater mix of ethnically different peoples.  For the US mainland, that usually means less diversity = more whites, and that is certainly so of the North. But that doesn't mean that whites hate diversity like some ppl imply...Does it? -- Posted by jakelong at 8:09 pm on Dec. 4, 2008 I kind of figured actually about the diverse South because of the bussing and the desegragation. I was surprised though the North was so non-diverse. The West and the Midwest and the Northwest didn't surprise me much. Unlike the OP I don't think everyone in the South  "hate diversity". (Actually I bet he was being sacastic but the local WNs took him at face value) What I'd like to know is why on LW a lot of so-called racialist/WN./WS are from the south. They say its because diversity breeds racism. Do you agree with  that theory? Or is it just that those guys are poseurs or that they lie about where they from or that they like to think this is so because it feeds into their worldview of Pure white vs Diversity? -- Posted by Forgot My Name at 9:52 am on Dec. 5, 2008 Quote: from jakelong at 8:09 pm on Dec. 4, 2008 I kind of figured actually about the diverse South because of the bussing and the desegragation.

Also, there is no such thing as "Pure" white. -- Posted by jakelong at 5:49 am on Dec. 6, 2008 Re-read my post and find out where you failed. -- Posted by zomgMIKE at 9:46 am on Dec. 6, 2008 That is such a bullshit and ignorant comment you're making. Really. Just think about it. The reason that there is a much higher amount of "minorities" in certain places is because of the lifestyle in that area. I live in Florida. Why do you think so many Puerto Ricans and Cubans live in central and south florida ? Because it's a comfortable lifestyle for them and there are plenty of people similar to them living nearby, so it's just natural to seek that out. It's common sense, man. Same goes for every other place that's more populated with one or more of the same race together, not because we in the South as whole "chase away" the minorities. Your chart proves nothing; at least nothing that can justify what you're saying. -- Posted by jakelong at 1:57 pm on Dec. 6, 2008 You must be one of those horrible hispanics KR is bitching about all the time   What are you doing messing up the nice white nations with your nasty nonwhite genes anyway?   Of course I can talk: I got more diversity in my blood than most states! -- Posted by Bud2400 at 7:57 pm on Dec. 6, 2008 Quote: from zomgMIKE at 9:46 am on Dec. 6, 2008 at least nothing that can justify what you're saying. That's largely because you missed the sarcasm in my OP. The underlying point was that many people complain about how racist (or "anti-diversity," which I find many up North interpret racism as) Southerners are, despite the fact that the South is far more diverse than the North, except in a few urban centers.  And that when faced with the map I displayed, there's some real irony.
