What Is White Culture To You?

White culture to me, is the constant preservation of violence and degeneracy. I see it all the time. Everything from the fascination with serial killers/serial killings, their love for all things macabre, ghoulish and miserable (e.g. their horror films, violent videogames and even in their music with their so-called "Rock Bands" that are known for writing graphic descriptions of violence and obsessions with all things gory) and of course, the one ideology and single practice that every white person has taken part in, either knowingly or unknowingly, more than twice within their lifetime, white supremacy and anti-Black racism.


The real question is, what is your perception of white culture?

    If we’re being intellectually honest and accurate, White culture would be any culture belonging to the ethnic groups of Europe. So with that definition we can take the question down to the next level:
    • What is British culture?
    • What is Italian culture?
    • What is German culture?
    • What is French culture?
    You’ll see that each have unique languages, foods, customs, and etc. For instance, the British and the French have cultures of extravagance, pretentiousness, and excess that you wouldn’t really associate with a German or Russian.

    Look how British people eat in formal settings. There’s a fork for every course, a spoon for every course, two different types of knives, rules for how you use your napkin and where you place it and rules for where you place your utensils and elbows. It’s extremely elaborate and you will be judged as lower class if you do not understand the rules. It’s so elaborate that they distinguish between which hand you use to cut your food. Let’s say you’re right-handed, at a steakhouse and want to take a bite:

    If you transfer the fork to your left hand so that you can use your right hand to cut the meat with a knife, that’s called international or American style. What happens is after you cut, you place the knife down, transfer the fork back to the right hand and then pick up the meat with the fork tongues facing downward.

    British style is to keep your fork in your right hand and to cut with the left so that you’re transferring utensils between hands.

    It’s hard to see white culture because it’s beaten into you from the second you heard your mama screaming because the racist doctor didn’t give her enough anesthetic as she gave birth.

    White culture is also beaten into us when the doctor aims to give our Black mothers substandard care and C-sections at alarming rates compared to non-Black mothers.

    Anti-Black racism, projection, deflection, colonization, exploitation, fascism, barbarism, cannibalism, revision of history, invasion, terrorism, being vultures, Satanism, gaslighting, manipulation, white supremacy, white privilege, and denial of actual truth, justice and reality are part of their white culture.

    They love to say that Black people are violent and degenerate, but look at white culture and the atrocities they commit(ted), what they've done and continue to do and promote.

    Is this meant to be an honest discussion or a “let’s talk shit about White people” post? Because White people do have culture and it is not limited to White Supremacy and hatred.

    It's supposed to be a discussion that aims to identify the implementation of the Dominant Society's (white people's) culture that has purposefully invaded our lives. I'll include more context for the opening text. No, it's not just about white supremacy and hatred, some of us could be practicing certain elements of white culture right now and not even know it . I said at the beginning, "White culture to me, is", and I've also said "I see it all the time" both quotes are indications based on my perception of what white culture is.
