You've misunderstood me, I didn't address "your" narrative, I spoke generally about how racism can be a narrative. A story that gives life to race and...
Heh, I'm not sure what you say does any good or any harm, you aren't in a position of power. I'm not sure what you want me to compare you to. All I ca...
I'm sure you do that but I meant that you highlight race in a way that makes it matter and not that you highlight that race matters. You deny this? Ca...
It's pleasing to hear you say this. However, in the past and now, I have felt that a major issue with you is that you highlight race in a way that mak...
You meet my expectations fdrake, when it comes to eloquently and soundly articulating the facts about the problems, you do so excellently. I agree wit...
Honestly, I have no idea what you're talking about. I like to talk about simple issues. Crime, drugs, fatherlessness, investment opportunities for sma...
I'm done with him now but I found it to be really funny at the time. It's all for entertainment anyway, I visit the forums until I've had enough of it...
I'm done talking about Benkei, I was more charitable with what he wrote until he made it worse in this thread. That being said, I would have expected ...
Right? I was half joking with my insults towards him but I actually didn't go far enough. He nagged me to answer his questions and I answer them. He t...
A ballpark figure? Of how many black people were confronted with negative consequences due to their skin colour over the last 450 years? And how many ...
You misrepresented both my arguments and the arguments used against me. You never fail to meet the expectations I've got for you fdrake. I wouldn't da...
That wasn't your question you utter moron. You asked: Look at what you just said now. You went from what number of white males have been confronted wi...
I'm of the opinion that how things are articulated matters as does the reason for doing it. I'm not interested in the colour of the people that are be...
I didn't word that as well as I could have, what I mean is that the emphasis on recording inequality by race is optional. There are wealthy cities and...
What are you unsatisfied with? Don't ask me to respect your intelligence, I'm convinced that you are an idiot. I cannot debate someone who simply igno...
I am not saying that laws cannot be interpreted (unambiguously) to be beneficial for white people or unfairly implemented in a way that hurts coloured...
I do not acknowledge the long-lasting economic consequences in the way that people want me to because it means continuing to treat black people as hav...
My post doesn't become a monologue just because you refuse to read and deal with what I'm saying. I understand your argument perfectly fine, I've arti...
You cannot "reverse" racism and sexism, you can only stop it. Economic redistribution based on race only reinforces the narrative of racial histories ...
I answered your questions, you just don't like the answers. Suffering happens to people, not groups, the people you are talking about are gone and the...
I don't really get why other people being stupid justifies you saying something stupid. StreetlightX isn't saying stupid stuff because he's agitated h...
You've come too late, there is nothing you can do for those people, they are gone. The individuals who have suffered in the past due to racism and sex...
I dare say that one cannot be murdered on an everyday basis. You are one of the funniest posters I've ever come across. To so consistently be such a m...
What's ironic about discussions about economic redistribution based on race is that it parallels the very same racist policies that it is trying to he...
it's a combination of coronavirus and covid-19 because I want to be inclusive towards all terms. I'm pretty much the most inclusive awesomeist person ...
I don't think people are wearing face masks for show, I know the CDC in Australia has recommended the use of face masks, what makes you think they are...
There are infinite reasons to give for living, evaluating them by whether or not they're compelling or objective is a choice. If someone gives a reaso...
Communism, really even in its most pure form where there is no corruption, error or greed should be viewed as a wrecking ball of a movement. It must f...
Well, that's the problem for me, Sanders will be a difficult sell for anyone who isn't at least left-leaning if not an outright radical provided he co...
I'm a moral relativist/nihilist and I've argued with a number of people on the topic, your summary opinion of how we don't know therefore there's no m...
Most Western countries have seen the problems Sanders is talking about and addressed them or at least are in the process of addressing them, America i...
That's absurd, you have quite a way of thinking about things. "Nobody's perfect" can mean different things based on the context, it absolutely never m...
You really gave stupid examples, intent matters and context matters. You can't make a phrase sound bad by giving ludicrous examples of people using it...
Might be a relevant link to this discussion too, it's all about cognitive biases which I think sometimes get simplified as conformity unfairly and inc...
Anti-conformity is more often than not a kind of virtue signalling, it's not usually a well-thought-out position. I find most people who are anti-conf...
On a philosophical note as opposed to advice to someone that I don't know, anything we think "society" thinks is a pristine, unrealistic version of wh...
I've always thought there are two ways to solve a problem. You tackle the nature of the problem or you interpret differently so that which was once a ...
It is okay to give up, the question is always what do you do after you've given up. If it's to wallow in self-pity then wallowing in self-pity is bad ...
People aren't sceptical enough about the problem, go government has ever or will ever be outside of the influence of those they govern. Neither will t...
How can it not be relevant? If you don't know what the "confounding factors of C" are then how can you know whether people aren't trying to address th...
