Jesus, dude. Talk about needing to win online arguments with strangers.

Do you even stop and think about what you are posting before you hit enter?

He was accused of being a racist. He offered up an anecdote that might go some way to proving that he isn't. That's hardly journalling about it.

hey genius, i don't journal about it. cowseatgrass called me a racist in about seven different posts, out of nowhere and for no reason, and so i'm defending myself.

Ok? You can “do something” and yet not make EVERYTHING you do 24/7 be “about it”.

Forgive me, that sure seems like a reason.

I know what the people want who came to this thread. They want to argue.
People want to argue, let 'em argue.

I think threads like this annoy Gregorio after awhile, so I give him permission to close it. I don't mind either way.

I will sum up what will change as a result of this thread on my part. Nothing.

Nobody will be demodded. Moderators will continue to use their judgment in terms of what is allowed in their own forums. That means a post that is okay with the BFI mods may not be okay in politics, And that's okay with me.

I know Broadway and cows don't like that answer. I'm sorry I can't find a way to please you.

Thank you, Mat. If the SJW antagonists would like to continue to attack me, catch me on twitter! keep it off of this wonderful forum we all love.

Maybe I'm missing something, but I was under the impression that the only reasons to discuss politics are to either learn something or teach something. I wouldn't suggest that there is some duty discuss it 24/7.

You started the thread dude.

You wanted discussion on the topic. Looks like it was all a colossal waste of time.

calling me a liar is a bad path to take for the SJW because that implies that if the story is true, i'm not a racist. you should have done what zikzak did and said "so what?" that way, i'm still a racist even though i attempted to help an old blind black guy cross the street.

seriously, ask yourself this question: when was the last time you saw someone really struggling, and did you stop to help? i'm not expecting you to answer, since the beacons of virtue that came before you refused to share a story of them actually doing a nice act for someone. is it because they haven't actually done a nice act lately?
Augie, I don't know your posting history so I'll stop piling on with the other posters calling you out. What I do know is that you use "SJW" un-ironically, which indicates you're an ******* who probably gets **** from a lot of people for your posts. Maybe you should take a look at yourself and try and figure out what you've done that makes people standing up for people being oppressed and attacked on the internet your enemies.

We're on an internet board, all you can know about most people is what they say. You have no idea how I vote or act or behave outside of 2+2, why are you trying to shame me for what you think I do? You are getting crap for what you say on the internet, if you don't think that reflects on who you actually are maybe you should look at that too.

I would just like to say that I appreciate wookie’s Modding. I don’t agree with some things he does, but I think the majority of the times he does a good job. Three cheers for Wookie!

This is such a mindblowingly stupid post that it really doesn't matter whether augie actually deep down in his heart of hearts doesn't like black people; the political policies he seeks to employ make the world a worse place for minorities and that is way more important to note than some stupid debate about whether crossing the street one time means he likes them or not

Have you read your posts? Most of them are about other people virtues.

Is augie a well-known politician/lobbyist/media personality? If not, I don't see why the distinction matters since his opinions on policies (like most of our individual opinions on policies) don't effect anything. Either way you're just talking about one dude's views/morality/whatever.

threads like this serve a purpose. it's my way of taking a temperature, i suppose. so it was not a waste of time for me.

This suggests that someone can advocate incredibly brutal and punishing policies towards minorities and as long as they aren't in a position of power to enact them, they couldn't possibly be racist as long as they have some anecdote where they once didn't want a black person to be run over.

If you believe that, I disagree.

is it?

i asked the most intelligent and articulate SJW on the site and all well named produced was some thousand page reports that you need to read to get a sense of it. apparently the current systemic racism is tough to bottle. he also pointed to disproportionate traffic stops and claims of unconscious bias. any form of systemic racism is illegal. maybe obama should have taken less naps or something, he had 8 years to identify it and apply the law

you are welcome to disagree with him but your usual anxiety ridden outrage is a bit dramatic here
