I love the music of Beethoven more than life itself, but this is neither jazz, nor ragtime, though it is prescient of both.
I realize that there are some who feel the need to attribute all that is good and beautiful in the world to white Europeans, but it just isn't so.
Whenever cultures meet, ideas are exchanged. Everybody borrows from everybody else, and "new" things emerge, though they are usually just syntheses of old things.
There's a reason ragtime is generally considered to be the first truly "American" musical form. It was the synthesis of European marching rhythms and melody with African syncopated rhythms.

They know, they honestly don't care, because the issue is as you said in the 2nd sentence.
Sometimes White Nationalists are literally just doing "We Were Kings And Shit"
I no longer care. If it's beneficial to people like me, it's good. When people not like me do the same it's bad. Every other ethnic group has been operating by these rules and they will not change. Whites will need to play by the rules set, and dominate the game as they have with everything else in the past.
Your DNA demands it.
How does We Was Kangin' stories help you?
If anything, it comes off as pathetic, like you're insecure in your personal identity, so you need to glom on to fictionalized accomplishments of your supposed ancestors so you can pretend that you're somehow great by proxy, and not just some schlub who's never done anything noteworthy.
That's why everybody mocks the meme in the first place.
Except it's never beneficial to people like you, or anyone else. It's a stupid mechanism for power that destroys exactly what you think it will empower and protect.
If you think racialist policies will work, look to black communities and indian reservations and tell me how well it's going for them.
Whites do better when they are offered no protectionism or paternalism. Everyone does better when they are not subject to racial or ethnic protectionism, and focus on actually promoting behavior, values, and culture that are good. The lives of whites in America improved when they abandoned White Supremacy, because white people don't fucking need it.
Racialism only enables failure like welfare does, because that's exactly what it is: racial welfare programs.
