  Unfortunately idiots gonna idiots.

  I really don’t get it, what have you got to be proud about your heritage? Did you choose it? I don’t think so, therefore, since you didn’t have a say about where you were born you shouldn’t take pride in this pure chance.

  Take pride in what you do with your deeds and in your life accomplishments. Don’t look at what other did before you thinking you had a part in that endeavour but create your own.

  Really can’t change my mind about that

    Never said otherwise, just that heritage is not something you get from your race, but from your culture

      And before being born you choose your culture? How is this different from the idea of pride in one’s race or place of birth? These are all aspects of our beings we don’t have any agency upon so being proud of such kind of aspects concerning ourselves makes absolutely no sense at all.

      One can be proud of what he has directly done himself or herself, being proud of something someone else did has the same logic as enjoying a lunch someone else ate.

      Heritage is a scam exactly like race, nationality, religion and all other made up concepts used to divide and conquer poor, uneducated and insecure people

        The difference is that race isn’t heritage, just some physical differences
