Now, I'm sure you'll cry about me making fun of you with things like "What about Asians?" and "Were they in the military?" but at least you aren't actively seeking to fight me like an unhinged loon like you were with RFDC so that is nice!


When have I said they are not "big deals" you are just making things up. But that's an easy idea so you latch onto it. You do have extremely shallow ideas that amount to racism is bad, and it's upsetting when people point that out to you. And rather that make a more nuanced point you go back to racism is bad because of this and this and this.

I am glad that you are having secret meetings to call people unhinged loons though. You can talk about it in your racism police meetings. Topic: racism still bad.

Let it just be said that LTG is a deranged lunatic who consistently lies about false academic credentials only to continuously bring up arguments months later after he has already lost them. Seriously LTG, get some help. This is not normal behavior, even for CFMB.


From the guy that constantly refers to "Bay Area Markets" long after the discussion has ended. Atlantic Charter. Lies about NBA comments. Aint that rich?

As far as deranged goes you might possibly be the most "deranged" person on this board. You advocate for cops to be killed. You advocate for Civilians and Doctors to be killed.

You have interjected yourself into at least 15-20 discussions that i have been involved in for the sole purpose of taking personal shots at me. In fact i can't remember the last interjection that you have had that did not begin without you initially taking a shot at me.
Your lunacy in this particular area runs so deep that you've taken to defending reprobates such as Chas yet you pontificate regarding someone else's (perceived) derangement?

You have a weird obsession with my level of academic achievement attainment yet you're trying to provide a medical diagnosis for me?

You blatantly lie even when confronted with facts, which is in of itself symptomatic of some sort of psychological shortcoming.

Something is wrong with you.

You literally cannot have a disagreement with anyone on this board without it devolving into insults and attacks. You cannot have a normal human interaction on this board and it shows in every thread you post in. Everything turns into you claiming you're a victim and then lashing out.

Get help, learn how yo actually talk to someone on this board without attacking them or claiming you are a victim. This is not normal behavior and has me legitimately worried about you.


Disagreement and i can't have one? Are you that fucking tone deaf idiot? Do you want me to bump the 20+ posts where your initial comment to something i said was to personally attack me? Or will you bitch amount me using the search function? Hint: The search function exists because the caretakers of the board do not actually trust lying dishonest fucks like you to tell the truth.

I can honestly say that i don't recall ever interjecting myself into any discussion that you are a part of. You can't say the same can you? just did it yesterday. Like every other time you jumped in to levy personal shots at me with your lying revisionist ass.

You have constantly referenced my academic history and questioned other things as well. At some point enough. Its not about unhinged and if you think so put it to a vote.

Me or you. The guy that advocates for cops, civilians, and Doctors to be murdered or the guy that defends himself as he should against senseless personal attacks.

As i said i can bump the shit where your first comments have invariably been negative.

You no interest other than that sort of thing so at this point its basically fuck you as far as i'm concerned.

It's bad. It's boring. It's useless. That's your debate style. It means you have no argument. Jim Crow was bad. We all agree upon that. Who do you think had a higher standard of living- someone in a village in Vietnam in 1950 or a person of any race in the United States. Even the lowest on the rung here had a higher standard of living.

Now back to something easier for you- racism bad, or really, really bad?

I've given you plenty to respond to. You ignore it and pretend like I didn't say anything. That is what is boring. You hear what you want to hear even after I correct you.

You got offended when I said "white people are going to be fine" multiple times and yet here you are saying that the oppressed under Jim Crow had it better than a villager in Vietnam. So, the next time you are whining about the mistreatment of whites by evil SJW's I'll just respond that you have it better than a villager in Vietnam!

The comparisons to other eras and how difficult life was is interesting. I mean because if we are grading hardship on a curve like that then I guess all white men need to shut the fuck up.

WFR has been crying about Roseanne since she was fired and yet Roseanne has a higher standard of living than 99.99% of all Americans!

I was "crying" about it? I tried to have a nuanced discussion. You determined that was "wrong" and "bad". You don't even realize how shallow your opinions are. It's quite entertaining.

You are just being daft on purpose, and misusing comparisons. It's was a intellectually dishonest person does. If you aren't going to answer the question then why would I think you have any other purpose than acting indignant- racism bad, you bad, me smart. Priceless.

You really are brainwashed if you think that was even close to the argument. I made a very specific point about the value of being an American. It was too much for the usual suspects here so you got into a tizzy in your racism police secret meetings because racism was not denounced firmly and strongly enough and there was an attempt to explore a topic beyond saying -bad/good.

I have not ignored any of your posts. Racism is bad. Can't saying anything else about Jim Crow. Racism bad. You bad. If you have a specific question I am happy to answer it, knowing well that if I say anything other than racism bad you will make it a meme about how racist I am.

But I am happy to answer. Only the members of the racism secret police will find it entertaining though.

What?

Did you mean to say this to Rick? I just pointed out how when discussing Jim Crow you reference quality of life versus other times and how that would work vs white people who feel persecuted in 2018

Brainwashed by your post?

Im starting to think maybe you dont actually want to explore topics or have nuanced discussions. You just want to keep repeating that everyone is incapable of it to prop yourself up as some beacon of realness.

Im here to have the honest discussion. Ready when you are.

If you want an honest answer, the person in the village in Vietnam likely had a better life than those who had to live under Jim Crow. Now, I won't repeat the post that ltg made because there is no point as it was really good at explaining it and you ignored it. Now, the material possessions of a person under Jim Crow was almost certainly better but their freedom was severely restricted and they lived every day as a person with lesser rights.

But, your comparison is still incredibly short sighted. Suffering isn't graded on a curve. It doesn't make it any more acceptable that others had it worse at the same time. Now, you have seemingly at least been willing to admit that Jim Crow was a terrible system which seems to be progress.

I provided a "beacon of realness", but it was pounced upon as terrible- even during Jim Crow the majority of black people in the United States had a higher standard of living then most of rest of the world and most people throughout history. To me this does not mean Jim Crow was proper or the reason they had that standard. It just means the the American system brought some level of success to even the lowest on it. So we should carefully consider that when saying it's irredeemable and needs to be blown-up.

What country offers a greater opportunity for creating black millionaires and political leaders? And if the country were as irredeemable racist as claimed by many would that be the case?

I don't believe I have ever called you a racist. You do seem to take joy in denying and downplaying it whenever you can.

You do ignore posts. You did it when I mentioned things besides incarceration as examples of modern day racism. Let me guess, you'll claim you somehow missed it now and respond and your response will be "RACISM BAD. YOU BAD."

WFR has been crying about Roseanne since she was fired and yet Roseanne has a higher standard of living than 99.99% of all Americans!


I was "crying" about it? I tried to have a nuanced discussion. You determined that was "wrong" and "bad". You don't even realize how shallow your opinions are. It's quite entertaining.

You keep on saying this while you ignore massive amounts of my posts. You may be the only person in the world that thinks my problem is I'm not descriptive enough in arguments.

No. Trust me, he's not.


:lol:

You really are brainwashed if you think that was even close to the argument. I made a very specific point about the value of being an American. It was too much for the usual suspects here so you got into a tizzy in your racism police secret meetings because racism was not denounced firmly and strongly enough and there was an attempt to explore a topic beyond saying -bad/good.

What?

Did you mean to say this to Rick? I just pointed out how when discussing Jim Crow you reference quality of life versus other times and how that would work vs white people who feel persecuted in 2018

Brainwashed by your post?

Im starting to think maybe you dont actually want actual nuanced discussions. You just want to keep repeating that everyone is incapable of it to prop yourself up as some beacon of realness.

Im here to have the honest discussion. Ready when you are.


I provided a "beacon of realness", but it was pounced upon as terrible- even during Jim Crow the majority of black people in the United States had a higher standard of living then most of rest of the world and most people throughout history. To me this does not mean Jim Crow was proper or the reason they had that standard. It just means the the American system brought some level of success to even the lowest on it. So we should carefully consider that when saying it's irredeemable and needs to be blown-up.

What country offers a greater opportunity for creating black millionaires and political leaders? And if the country were as irredeemable racist as claimed by many would that be the case?

Fair enough. I understand that is your point.

So it kinda makes 2018 white people or 2018 millionaires (Roseanne) look silly by comparson for their complaints, doesn't it?

I've given you plenty to respond to. You ignore it and pretend like I didn't say anything. That is what is boring. You hear what you want to hear even after I correct you.

You got offended when I said "white people are going to be fine" multiple times and yet here you are saying that the oppressed under Jim Crow had it better than a villager in Vietnam. So, the next time you are whining about the mistreatment of whites by evil SJW's I'll just respond that you have it better than a villager in Vietnam!


You are just being daft on purpose, and misusing comparisons. It's was a intellectually dishonest person does. If you aren't going to answer the question then why would I think you have any other purpose than acting indignant- racism bad, you bad, me smart. Priceless.
If you want an honest answer, the person in the village in Vietnam likely had a better life than those who had to live under Jim Crow. Now, I won't repeat the post that ltg made because there is no point as it was really good at explaining it and you ignored it. Now, the material possessions of a person under Jim Crow was almost certainly better but their freedom was severely restricted and they lived every day as a person with lesser rights.

But, your comparison is still incredibly short sighted. Suffering isn't graded on a curve. It doesn't make it any more acceptable that others had it worse at the same time. Now, you have seemingly at least been willing to admit that Jim Crow was a terrible system which seems to be progress.


In the original I said standard of living, which would mean material goods. But to go into the unable to be measured- the person in Vietnam was subject to French imperial rule. They had no rights. It was similar if not more severe to Jim Crow. So that's not for me to judge. They were also in the midst of a civil war between fractions within the country and with the French colonial army. Tens if not hundreds of thousands were dying every year.

Want to re-think that?
