Go back and read his post, he never described his experiences, other than alluding to being called a thug as a teenager. No other context was provided. He never explained them. He just repeatedly said he had experiences. He doesn't need to explain it, I don't expect it, but don't pretend he explained his relevant experiences. Again, he merely stated that he has experience, and that undefined experience and his race makes him an authority on whether Trump used a dog whistle, and anyone who objects to his authority will be ignored.

I guess this is the part where I'm supposed to imagine what those experiences entails, which is ****ing hilarious, as his credibility is now tied to what I and others imagine he experienced, and you all want it this way.

Yeah, I'm still out on doing that.

If you've got some mathematical proof that I'm incorrect, let's have it.

I'm done for about a week, MrWookie.

To all: FYI: flew in to Charlotte today, LAS (Vegas Airport) is a ghost town, and the flight was empty. I think we are going through some very troubling times, and to be worried about whether Trump used thug inappropriately is silly (self included). Trump is not the source of racism/distrust in the world, he is the manifestation of it.

This is true. Trump is one demented geriatric, but the love of Trump is the root of all evil.

Trump's racist demonization of these protesters was the leading indicator that he's close to deploying military forces on US citizens.

The US military will shut that down. And fyi, that would be an impeachable offense.

LOL

Ah yes, THIS is the law, that, once broken, will surely lead to Trump's impeachment!

Most people are indifferent about what happens in and with Ukraine. Your problem is, you think every transgression is a big deal, it's not.

Trump has committed dozens of impeachable offenses that don't deal with Ukraine, and that are entirely domestic.

LOLOLOL. Needed a good laugh in these dark times

Let's check in with one of the jurors who surely will vote to impeach Trump this time:

lol, the guy who insists “thug” isn’t a racist dogwhistle wants to chuff about dishonesty.

As if we needed any more proof the Tea Party is a joke

Here's another one of itshot's jurors



He sounds very concerned about *checks notes* "professional agitators" making Trump's photo-op look bad (or rather, worse than it already looked from Trump holding the Bible upside-down like a dipshit)

Speaking of which, how do I become a professional agitator? Sounds awesome.

Seeing trolley, wookie and goofy posting back to back to back is like a really bad three stooges impersonation.

Like I said, people going to turn words into "dog whistles", or "racial slurs", and it's not going to be the one who are uttering them. We'll see how long it takes for "looting" to be referred to as a racist word on the Wikipedia page.

This still ignores the fact that there seems to be a significant proportion of white people doing the "stealing".

lol, it's almost like AP is learning from history while dumbass conservatives pretend words never have context attached

You know "looting" is a term video gamers use alot, but let's pretend... It's only used for black people, and its use is entirely derogatory. Again if you think these words refer to black people when you hear the term thug, protester, looting, and think these terms are always derogatory, you are the f****** problem.

Right-wingers seriously think racism is just a list of words they can't say and something as complicated as "context matters" utterly breaks their brains and results in **** like this

Every other racial group can be classified as looters, in any and all contexts, except for black people, when you do it to them, it's racist, and you're sure of it because some black person told you so.

You folks are the ones assuming a derogatory context when it's used to describe a black person... And you would go to the mat to defend that claim.

Your response is to the project that **** onto me... You people are f****** nuts. You're the one f****** assuming a derogatory context, dumbass.

Like, it's broken your brain so badly that we get this pile of word vomit:

- No one even said that about the word "looting", you just invented it in a fit of hysteria because you're mad that the AP is learning from past mistakes
- Even going back to "thugs", I didn't say using the word is racist, I said it's racially coded, and maybe you're too dumb to tell the difference? I can't tell. If you were reading, which you weren't, you would have noticed that I said the racist part was when Trump tweeted about sending in the National Guard to shoot "THUGS"

Get in control of your feelings snowflake, jesus

Dude, when you look at that hurricane Katrina article you assumed for whatever f****** reason the term looting was meant to be derogatory. When normal non-racist people look at that, they don't see that term as a derogatory depiction of black people, they see a person looting to survive. You are the f****** racist, and you just provided the greatest evidence thus far. F****** right context matters, the image gives the context of survival, a non-derogatorial context.

We're at "can't tell if serious" levels of idiocy from you here. You recognize that the captions are saying the black guy wading away with food committed a crime while the white people were just "finding" supplies, right? And you're not sure if it's derogatory?

Good lord, take a breather, this is sad.

Once again you are the ones assuming the context of the Katrina article, and are using it as your prime example of the term being racial and derogatory. The AP wants to use the term stealing, and assume that's the context it was used in....

You f****** are gaslighting right now, you just f****** accused me of doing the very thing you are doing.

You are certain the context and meaning was derogatory.
