The part of lefties that bothers me is this... they care about the superficial stuff and not willing to reason or understand anything in context. Instead, they choose to believe what they believe and feel that they are absolutely in the correct side for the sake of "correctness".
We are at a point where a statement such like "Black people are black" is deemed offensive.
US Fortune 500 boards consist mainly of whites, that's deemed racist.
Ivy League schools acceptance are Caucasian/Asian dominated, that too is racist.
No... they aren't trying to discuss the REASON why those things happen as they do. They aren't willing to try to UNDERSTAND the context of why certain statement are stated in such way. All they care is, there isn't enough of x type of population in anything worth a damn... it must be because of systematic racism. Or if any statement makes anyone uneasy, it should be changed.
So, Asian-background students who study their ass off to get the best grade possible so they've a better chance at elite schools didn't matter to them.
The CONTEXT, which is the part that MATTERS in any statement, didn't matter. The professor who were discussing with his students that Chinese use 那個 as an interjection of a sentence structure. Nop... he's racist because it sounds too close to the N-word.
Where is this going to end?
I hereby declare that "Skinny"pupp is offensive to me because I'm fat and his nickname reminds me of my figure whenever I see that name, and I think it's a disrespect to anyone who isn't "Skinny". He should change it to Fattypupp.

Edit: I will concede that I tend to overdo it with hyperbole when I write, and that's a bad habit I'll try not to fall into as much. Especially when it's addressing other people here  | 1. I didn't accuse you of hating anyone, my exact words were, 'the things you hate in other people' ... things you hate in other people does not necessarily mean you hate the person.
2. I'm going to assume you are sincere in trying to be a better person. Just go back to some of your posts to people with different views, you are dismissive, pompous, arrogant, imply that other side is ignorant, call people stubborn (but can't see that you are), end your discussion by calling the other a troll (causing shit for the sake of it), and yes ... by your own admission hyperbole (insinuating that whoever will take this and start assaulting minorities).
As you know, this is not the first time I called you out ... for other people I don't get too riled up over but as a mod ... I expect more.

Move right along. Nothing to see here, and this has absolutely nothing to do with Operation Warp Speed~ https://www.citynews1130.com/2020/11...cine-efficacy/ Quote: |

I can’t congratulate anyone for doing the absolute bare minimum they were supposed to do. Unfortunately giving money to big businesses is the only thing Trump knows how to do, he should have been doing many, many things against COVID that he hasn't, but in this one case maybe (just maybe) it will be of benefit to society and not just himself/other rich friends. Something tells me the society part is purely incidental though.
So... yay. Go Trump.

Not infected with divisive cockamamie "solutions" like racial equity programs or critical race theory.
People treat each other like people rather than skin colours and they're much less divisible because of it. Imagine that. Probably just not sophisticated enough. | Bahahaha, have you ever traveled to these places, Ford sales guy?
My god, I just had to respond to this because the post clearly displays you've never visited these countries.
Do you understand the racial dynamic in Dominican Republic in relation to Haitians and Latin-born Dominicans? What about Argentina's vile racial history? One of the primary issues right now in Brazil is racial inequality, it's a HUGE subject in Brazil. I've visited Brazil, and the DR many times, trust me race is a major factor in these countries, the only difference is the dialog is simply not as open there, as it is here.
Where do you come off with these views with literally no experience?

Back to the subject of Trump.
Now that his court cases are all but thrown out and done, and he's distancing himself from them, what do people think is going to happen come January?
It's really quite odd seeing a president lose an election, but does not appears to show any inclination of leaving? Could we see a coup, or if not, perhaps a most definite online Confederacy movement going forward? This whole situation is very odd.

The last two pages of comments are downright embarrassing for this forum. | I think what's more embarrassing and concerning is watching folks attempt the mental gymnastics to argue that a mishmash group of unorganized parties encompassing; anarchists, gays right advocates, anonymous-types, anti-fascists, progressives, woman's advocates, civil rights advocates, democrats, libs, and the like, are more "dangerous" and concerning than that of actual right-wing militias that have committed terrorist acts, and carry police and military supporters (aka true power). https://www.independent.co.uk/news/w...-b1723323.html
When looking at these groups juxtaposed, one has to wonder why folks such as yourself see more of a concern with Antifa, but yet not a single mention to these right-wing groups that have committed shootings, bombings, and other various planned attacks that have been thwarted, as opposed to a "group" Antifa, that has done none?
You can't see the obvious disingenuous nature there to that opinion?

No response. | He likes to fail just about anybody, for shits and giggles, and with no explanation. Fail stalker, fail whore, whatever. But we all have the fail button - must refrain from using it. It was my new years resolution not to fail anybody, but it is what it is. One day, someone is going to take it away from him, permanently.

I guess if I gave you the option of eating a piece of shit, or a ball of snot, you'd take the turd and tell me "Meh, they're both the same anyways"? | |
