@rarity All power to you, I won't say it's a waste. Who knows, we may get there. As long as separatists exist though, there'll be a run for the money.
-
@rarity I didn't say it can't be unlearned, but it's going to take a lot of effort from everyone, and a lot of time to gain said effort from everyone. I'm not arguing genetics here either; I take this deep setting as instinctual advantage (or was when humanity was sprouting from the ground), like the crow's ability to learn and recognise and bring that knowledge to their kin.
-
@rarity it's just not viable. You said it, utopia. Regardless of the many advantages of mutual cooperation, any individual conflict can spark a division of a community. We'll always fight. The whole species will never agree on anything. And if we did, that'd cause us to cease moving forward. Everything would be fine and there'd be no reason to change anything, so our society would get completely stale.
-
@rarity Yeah that's WHY I draw them like that, and it's only just now occurring to me that everybody else in anything I've ever done, comparatively, has a darker skin tone.
-
@rarity It's not in our DNA but we get to it over and over. It doesn't have to be over race or anything. It's just that the easiest way to unite a group is making an enemy, and it's easier to convince masses that another group is against them if they look different. It'll always happen. The only way to solve it would be to have a population composed solely of highly instructed and intelligent people, but we all know it won't happen.
-
@rarity It might be, but it won't disappear. It's part of what makes us human. And let's be honest, an homogeneous species is just no fun.
-
@rarity In our immigrant-based countries, sure. But we all know how everyone takes issue with other races "appropiating" their culture. It's a trait of human behaviour, to separate eachother.
-
@rarity This. Although one can argue English French and Swedish cultures grew out of solely white people such is not the case for all cultures, nor did they grow solely because they were made of one peoples.
-
@rarity No biological point, but there are many social and traditional reasons to do so. Like anything, really. There's no point in following certain atchitectural styles, but we do it anyway.
-
@rarity Race mixing is really dependant on culture though. For all we know in a few decades culture could evolve to be more xenophobic, just like it changed into being mix-positive lately. Those things come and go. No race will disappear because there will always be people who want to retain it.
-
@rarity What really gets me is there's no such thing as "white culture". There is no aspect of culture that is intrinsically tied to skin color. the English, Swedish or French can be all of those things, without being white.
-
@rarity We don't know for how long that'll last.
-
@rarity I'll create a white paradise to last the ages.
-
@rarity Maybe in places where the racial distribution is even, but there are more than enough countries with an almost completely white population.
-
@rarity Don't worry, regardless of how many you convince of hating themselves, the race will prevail.
-
@rarity You are right that "ToonBoom" sounds like a software you'd get your kid for their eighth birthday.
-
@mrmattimation @rarity By everybody I mean all the big studios. The Simpsons, Rick & Morty, Family Guy, etc. are all made in ToonBoom right now. Independent artists still use Flash, mostly.
-
@rarity It's so weird because the brush tool is better than Flash, but the interface is NOWHERE near as simple to use as Flash is. And everybody in the industry is using it right now, FOR SOME REASON.

@rarity oh they're all full-blown "-ia"s now so who cares

@rarity "check" is how I imagine how it is in English. I heard someone say it "chech" like in Chechnia.
