Very insightful… here I was thinking everyone would agree w me. I’m shocked they don’t.

I'm over 50 too. But I have a college education, unlike the proud of his ignorance Negraneau who brags about his lack of formal education as though that is anything but a handicap for a young person today.

If you are at all familiar with the history of this country you don't go around even defending blackface comedy. It's a small mistake as mistakes go imo, but it's not small when you deny is a serious mistake.

I think most of the childless single people like me, will agree with you.

But I'm usually wrong.

I came to this realization at a young age and was able to prevent producing a child as a result. Frankly, as a loser piece of **** and seeing how angry people get with those who raise children poorly, I feel like I should be getting tax breaks etc, not the fools who try to 'be giving' and reproduce and make mistakes as a result.

I was being sarcastic.. obviously it’s near impossible to get everyone to agree on anything.

Can we stop with the woke idiocy crap? Look I'm no defender of DNegs, far from it! But what he did was a Jamaican character as part of a longer video skit. He had black makeup, dreadlocks, a rasta hat, etc. That is not what is considered historical "blackface" comedy, not even close. Just because you put on black makeup doesn't mean you are doing "blackface", as much as the woketards would want it that way.

Blackface is when a white person uses makeup to portray a black person, especially as a caricature or stereotype.

DNegs was wearing blackface, just as Justin Trudeau was wearing blackface when he put on some makeup and a wig to sing Day-O in high school.

Clearly an impossible request.

This is a silly point, just playing with words, you are right he was not doing historical blackface, but he was definitely doing a modern blackface, as he was a white guy putting on black make up to do a performance as a black guy.

Oh please. He was clearly doing a Jamaican character with the dreadlocks and Rasta cap, not doing a performance as “a black guy”.

Anyway I’d thought you’d left this thread after DNegs two recent 1st place finishes. You know, after you were so clearly emotionally invested in his string of 2nd place finishes.

You think he was doing a white guy Jamaican performance?

Did Robert Downey Jr. commit your woke definition of blackface in Tropic Thunder?

It was blackface being used to make fun of non-woke blackface. And it was hilarious.

Tropic Thunder was hilarious and the blackface used in the movie was also hilarious. I got perfect scores on my SAT II U.S. History and AP U.S. History tests and I just defended blackface used in the 21st century.

RDJ was just a dude playing a dude, playing the dude, disguised as another dude

Woke culture is a bit like religion of old. Beneficial for the masses, but not when put into practice on an individual level (if there is no room for thinking for yourself).

Intent matters.

There is a massive difference between historical blackface, where the purpose was to mock and humiliate black people by exaggerating specific qualities to reinforce the idea that they are inferior, and modern "blackface" which is imitating a black person because you are a fan of them and want to be like them.

Daniel daily vlogging again:

Must watch videos. If you can't be there, this is the 2nd best thing. Hopefully DNegs is vying for player of the year again, it gets entertaining when he's close at the end.

They gave Hellmuth some grief at the start of the $25k HORSE but look who ends up making the final table. Hellmuth always gets the last laugh

Yeah, DNegs did make a disparaging remark about Hellmuth in the first video. That's wrong. For all of his bratty behaviour, the guy has been winning against so called modern players. Hellmuth needs to go up against a final table of german players. That would be epic.

To Daniel Negreanu or those who personally know him:

I've seen many coyotes walking the streets in the area of town where Dan lives. Those things can climb walls and like to eat smaller animals.

I notice in the vlogs that Dan leaves his tiny dogs to play outside a lot. He shouldn't.

Let Dan know if you know him. Let him buy bear sprays and bear horns to drive away coyotes.

Day 3

["It's rigged against me" post and two responses moved to https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/2...ition-255990/]

i like putting daniel's wsop vlog on in the background while i'm working with datasets

in the last one i had on he started going over some razz hands and i'm a bit embarassed to find myself pausing my work, focusing upon his monitor and rewinding to start from the beginning

i know very little of razz and only played a few $1 sngs for the lols and it was the first time in all his videos where I genuinely cared about listening to his strategy for anything beyond entertainment value - really helped put into perspective why all the home game all stars love him so much as when you are starting with minimal information his approach at explaining it is very easy to process and doesn't feel like homework the way a lot of poker theory/strategy can feel
