    Default What would Putin think of his racist Tennis star?

    The crowd had no idea what had just happened. “Unsportsmanlike conduct. Default Medvedev,” French told the crowd through her chair umpire microphone. “Game. Set. Match. Young. 4-1. Default.”

    Medvedev then shook hands with Young and French and it was bizarrely all over.

    The USTA later released a statement confirming Medvedev was disqualified for racist comments. There’s understandable speculation that Medvedev said something worse than the “friends” remark picked up on the video feed.

    I've heard Russians are pretty racist.

    If you view Russian as a race unto itself, yup.

    The gop will be rallying in support of him, and having orgasms over Putin again like they did back in 2013 when the rights of LGBT individuals in Russia was restricted.

    So, the story doesn't make it very clear... What exactly did he say that was racist?
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
    - -- Aristotle

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
    - -- The Buddha

    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
    - -- Aristotle

    Maybe he meant he was looking for a place where he could be the main troll.

    Or maybe a place where I wouldn't be harassed for expressing my political views. Apparently I was wrong.

    I never knew that telling the truth was considered "trolling" here. I guess I misjudged this site badly.

    You've never heard that Russians don't like black people?

    What makes you think I want to be a troll?

    Oh, I understand that very well. Some of my "battle buddies" beat me up after I insulted their obsession with Ronald Reagan.

    When the fuck did I name call. The only name calling I see is you calling me a "troll," and me trying to rebut your baseless insults.

    So you're "new" to this board and already coming out firing and dropping f bombs. Very impressive.

    This is a good board. Hope you enjoy yourself.

    You must be joking. So many people here are vitriolic. If you think Juche's post is, then he fits right in with the rest of us.
