Racism - Always and Forever

when you contort like that to explain away racist statements of politicians you support… are you ever in a position to kiss your own ass?

 

No. The fans are conservative, all day, every day. The Venn diagram of players who are Black and have never been lynched in effigy in the US is a circle. Even with Trump's rise to power, I don't think that's happened yet.

That he didn't get visibly upset is not an indicator that what they did is acceptable. Getting a rise out of the player thru racism-based conservatism deserves a response, but the TOS don't allow me to suggest it.

 

Merely pointing out that YOUR outrage may not be shared by those who YOU assume were insulted.

Also, I see that, as usual, you failed to provide any substantiation for your attack.

Please stop posting nonsense.

 

Nah, let him post. We need a new ITN around here.

 

Back when ITN was around i always felt he was playing a character of a ridiculous over the top conservative, sort of like the old Colbert show. Then vfish came along and I wasnt so sure anymore, and with the current conservative deep thinker contributor I'm almost certain they wholeheartedly drink their own kool aid.

 

Yeah, vfish was like a Hannity call-in regular. He savored the role of just being a contrarian for its own sake.

 

I posted a racist quote by then Dem Senator Biden

I don’t know what else I can do for you
You are too twisted for me to untangle

 

That means the thread must be closed.

 

That's Flavor Aid goddammit.

 

as you would assume, I don’t agree with your assessment

to me, it’s like this…
We’re all fish swimming in the ocean and you (and many others here) insist that they are dry and keep wanting a definition of and proof that water exists

and anyone who says otherwise is a troll, fascist, racist … or whatever is required by the compulsory Two Minutes of Hate

 

You do enjoy playing the victim. You really do specialize in performative outrage.

 

you keep saying that
Do you need me to play the victim?

I’m merely following the precedent of established behavior here on P&CE

in this particular instance, it was a precedent which you established

 

Projection, 'jection, what's your function?
Gonna point some fingers cause I'm scared of in-tro-spec-tion

 

needs more work

 

I can count the number of sisters other than my mom and women I've dated whose hair I've touched on one hand. One. I have never dated anyone who wore a weave.

There is no way on Earth I'd ask someone if I could touch their hair. I've never asked a White student if I could touch her hair. I don't need to understand it.

Agreed. That's an intrusion on privacy.

He knows what I know about race. I was half joking with him.

 

LIES AND GASLIGHTING AND BOTHSIDES AND PROJECTIONS

 

I feel the same way about the hair touching as I do the pregnant woman abdomen touching. Maybe they're both some sort of primordial cave dwelling behavior that thankfully didn't get passed down to me.
Too bad few women post here because they are the ones who are affected and I would be more interested in their takes.

 

They cut loose the Donald BUT they still maintain his affections

 

You know I was just repeating the excuses that have been doled out for that kind of behavior over the years.

 

I thought I remembered @phedre44 having an humorous anecdote or two.

My wife had several instances of people commenting on her pregnant body. It's like people reaching out for connection, and they think they have the perfect ice-breaker.

It definitely extends to babies too, before they can talk much.

And then there are creepy people that follow you around in the grocery store.

 

This Vikings tweet is umm...odd

Commenting is bad enough but did they touch her?

 

My wife (or I, if I was there) would be in prison if it got that far. She's pretty amazing at keeping her bubble clear and using body language & verbal language to keep unwanted attention away.

It took me the better part of a year to get a date with her.
