    I don't hate white people, I hate ignorant bigots who but for the accident of birth hate all those of the "wrong color".

    we were not discussing the good things that white people have done, we were specifically discussing the behaviour of the dominate white culture. An attitude of "racial and cultural" supremacy that has been displayed for well over a thousand years. White supremacy and the oppression of blacks did not end with abolition - and Jim Crow apparently is still skulking around America.

    TBH it reflects poorly on you to block people you don't agree with. No wonder moral crusaders love censorship and hate speech laws.

    You are not a student of physics I see. You also do not make a credible grammar nazi. Femtosec(ond).

    When I am crudely insulted (even in other languages) I generally first look to the source.

    As an example, should an "idiot expert" who patently displays his degree from the University of Village Idiots with nearly every post, call me an idiot, I would be truly humbled and honored to be accused of reaching such depths of unconsciousness as that expert.

    They are not "blocked". And the ones I have "ignored" say very much the same things as one another.

    No, when there are hundreds of posts to review, it's no poor reflection, it is prudent to filter the repeated nonsense which clutters the screen.

    Some people would scream "FIRE" in a crowded theater and some would incite riots with their words. I may not be seen as one of good character in your eyes... but I am no novice at this.

    Somewhere between not getting myself banned, staying civil and remaining sane... is my "ignore" list. :)

    How many times do I have to debunk the idiotic 4% vs 60% lie?

    considering the quality of your "lessons" and your internal legend status, I have no doubt you could give a dung beetle a lesson in maneouvering its dung more efficiently, but you really should steer clear of anything that requires actual numbers, analysis and common sense.


    BTW - I think I have reported a neo-nazi or two a few times for crude insults. Not for the insult itself but for the demonstrable lack of wit, the crass ignorance and the blatant weasely attempt to deflect.

    A literal translation of "estupido cabron materno" is "stupid mother bastard". I suppose an appropriate response would be something along the lines of "I know you are but what am I".

    So you can't be civil with people you don't agree with, so you have to rid yourself of what they say?

    I'm not here to be critiqued by you; you must know that.

    If you decide that you shall answer every comment that comes across your screen, then do so. I have a modicum of patience, but no... I will not as some 'hypocrite' pretend that some people's posts are not worthy of being disregarded.

    In a room of people, I suppose certain individuals (including myself) would be shouted down or silenced. Since we are NOT in an actual room (together)... then there is the electronic function of muting some people's opinions (if only for a time) and regarding them accordingly.

    At least Once would suffice - the numbers hold true More Whites on the rolls numerically
    More Blacks on the rolls statistically .

    I see your Spanish - she is no so good - si ?
    Cabron has diff. meanings depend. on the context in which it is used in this case it was the Spanish version of a common ghetto slang popular in the U.S. - basically it referred to someone who does things with his Mom. Not a Bastard .

    And how many of these people exist?
    You are only pointing out the bad.

    There is a black president and a black attorney general.

    Where?

    The Jim Crow era is over also. By hanging on to the past and playing victim blacks stay where they are or their situation gets worse. Today it is their own fault.

    Hahahahaha! Ignore list...... People problems can be solved by those who are involved. Right now blacks need to get over the victim mentality and join with those of us that want to see them improve their communities and succeed. If one part of our society is failing then it hurts all of us......get it?

    It is time blacks stopped being pawns for the democratic party who feeds them constant victim hood.

    unfortunately it encompasses just about every racist on the planet.


    Yes, that generally happens when you are discussing bad things.

    so what? that does not mean that pinhead white power people no longer exist. that simpl "i hate them <insert favorite hate>" bigots still exist.

    What it does tell us is that the majority of people are not racist scumbags.




    take a look at the states that have or are introducing "make it harder for x people to vote". I know of absolutely NO state where these new attempts are aimed at white people. By some odd co-incidence they all seem to effect black and brown people.

    I know its over and many people living today suffered under that era.

    Who is hanging on to it? If you don't know what was and you don't know what it is, then you are ill-prepared for what is yet to come. No one criticizes Jewish people for teaching their kids the evils of the Holocaust, but black folks are always told to forget the past as if it didn't happen. History is the most rewarding of all our subjects because History teaches you what your fathers did and what you are capable of doing. So it takes a pretty arrogant person to try and tell someone who has suffered a great atrocity to "get over it" when you yourself have never suffered under that type of oppression.

    What is the freakin victim mentality black folks need to get over? Is that racist code for something?

    It is time for black folks to stop being pawns for either party and we definitely don't need to start being pawns for a party that speaks with a forked tongue.

    They want 'blacks' to forget their past now. They tried so hard to erase it from their minds over the last 300 years with whips and chains, now they cant get away with that, mostly, so they kindly ask them to simply, 'forget your past' in a kind of hypnotic tone 'youu will forgett yourr passssssttt,youu will forgett yourr passsssstt' .

    Theres no doubting they do this, a lot. Question is why? Why are they trying to make the black man/woman forget who they are? Is this person something that threatens these whites who say this.?

    North Carolina just passed laws which disenfranchise a particular 'segment' of voters (primarily); that is indisputable in real terms. The legal battle continues.

    Here is what one guy slipped-up and revealed, but there is enough evidence and history to support the likelihood that his mindset is not 'isolated' (to himself nor merely to NC):

    The American people may have their biases about many different things... but the more they allow certain interests to MANIPULATE the right of people to vote, the further down the path of real tyranny this nation will go. Yes, yesterday (and even today) it's "Blacks" they seek to 'control', but it is only a matter of time before "Whiter" Americans are affected by similar schemes; and yes, IT WILL SUCK.

    I suspect that the GOP in North Carolina will pay a massive price for what they are doing there. It will not only affect them in the near future... but for likely 1 or 2 generations. The average, decent working American may not always consciously remember why they aren't voting "Republican"... but they will likely sense that they shouldn't.

    Hahahaha

    It is funny so many white men have the nerve to tell black men to stop being a victim. This couldn't be any more comical.

    Black men have been enslaved, humiliated, incarcerated, and villified and are told to "stop complaining."

    Ha. Ha. Read a history book. If you think the last 300 years have nothing to do with 2014 you need to return to reality.

    Well I was not considered a White man in deep south Texas until I was out of the military, regardless of technical legal considerations and so I'll repeat that White litany, Blacks need to cease this wallowing in emotional angst over ancient wrongs and get on with life. If they in general care about Black communities and I see no real evidence that they actually do give a damn, then they can begin investing their OWN time and money in 'downtrodden' communities and try to convince seemingly professional victims to man up as a people and begin embracing -- oh I dunno -- middle class values. How's that?

    My rebuttal -

    If we are truly a post-racial society like most conservatives try to believe, why is it only successful blacks that are faced with fixing the black community? Whites should have the same obligation, no?

    Since when are conservatives interested in stepping in to 'fix' the problems of their neighbors? Do you see achie-breakie-hearted White conservatives shrieking to the skies, "Won't somebody think about the plight of poor White trailer trash?!" No, they do not do that, because with all the opportunities afforded ALL citizens in this nation they figure that if White trash didn't want to live that way they wouldn't remain so determined to maintain that interesting lifestyle.
