“Woke”

[LV426]

Your avalanches of shit impress nobody.

They're not supposed to impress anyone...they're supposed to organize your thoughts for you since you're incapable of organizing them yourself.

 

[LV426]

What we need here is a posse to run you out of Forumtown on a pole.

So instead of defending yourself and your awful arguments, you're trying to get me kicked off the forums so that you can have a safe space.

 

[LV426]

Avalanches of shit is a good phrase as I sometimes get as many as 7or 8 replies to just one of my posts from that wing nut. That one is REALLY unhinged.

The reason I do that is because your thoughts are so scattered that they have to be broken out into separate posts because they have nothing to do with each other.

They're just incoherent ramblings and grievances that you need to be held to account for blurting out.

You should be thanking me for doing that.

No you do it because you're an unhinged retard who broke out of their restraints

highly doubtful...hows your bliss these days?

Strong thank you!

Yours?

It can be argued there is a difference but to the person on the receiving end does it really matter? We all know the obvious kind of racism; a non-black person using the N-word being at the top of the list.

Let's take something maybe slightly more subtle. People will argue single family zoning was racist at its founding because its intention was to keep poor (read: largely minority) people out of their neighborhoods. Anyone who claims to be woke would recognize that history and fight to change/eliminate single family zoning today. Yet even in some of the most progressive areas of the country people fight tooth and nail to keep their neighborhoods from changing and by leaving the single family zoning designation in place.

Is this latter form of racism acceptable? When the NFL puts the 'End Racism' in the endzone during their games does this get included? It's easy to proclaim oneself to be woke or tell others to be woke but why do those same people then do things like the above?

There is a difference between racist and racist result, but clearly both should be avoided.

Even imperfect people can aspire to and promote a goal such as ending racism.

Also, the whole "I won't share personal details of my anecdotes because you'll use them against me later on", is some serious consciousness of guilt right there.

There is no reason for guilt because all the stories are true.

I have seen you attack others and calling their examples lies. When you attack people for using real examples to illustrate something you don't like makes it a farce and completely destroys any intellectual stimulation, acquisition of knowledge, or just civil discourse that some of us seek on JPP.

I didn't claim that, that actually happened.

Nope. More lack of understanding on your part. Trump did not cancel any primaries. State law provides for canceling some primaries if there is no competition. The primaries were cancelled because state law required it.

 

[Flash]

I don't know how much clearer this could be:

I know you saw this post, too, and at the time you didn't seem to think it was what you're trying to say it now is.

The election was not cancelled which was my main point from the start. Dramatic predictions are interesting but seldom occur (like red waves).

 

[LV426]

No you do it because you're an unhinged retard who broke out of their restraints

No, it's because you can't organize your thoughts, so every post of yours is just a long winded, rambling mess of grievances and loneliness.

 

[Flash]

So you scream about context all the fucking time, but when context doesn't work out in your favor, suddenly it must be dismissed.

Is time linear?

Lame argument. You don't want to admit you claimed Trump would cancel the election and using whether time is linear doesn't change the fact that you posted it.

 

[LV426]

There is no reason for guilt because all the stories are true.

Then you should have no problem verifying them.

I call their examples lies because they refuse to verify any of them, which leads me to think they're just saying that shit because they want to establish some credibility their argument lacks.

You should be able to make an argument, any argument, along empirical lines that we can all see and observe.

The alternative, that you have chosen, is taking you at your word even though you've done nothing to earn that level of trust.

How? How is that different? Racist results are ok as long as people have good intentions?

You can't even address the very real life scenario I offered and I know the reason why. This whole "I'm woke and you should be woke too" is nothing but a big virtue signal. It makes one feel good about themselves to say in the abstract I'm not racist and I attempt to not be racist. But when the rubber hits the road and people have to back their words with actions this is what we get.

It's transparent AF.

I hate the ways cows are slaughtered, it’s not done in the least traumatic or least painful way, it’s done in the least expensive way. I think it should be changed. I’ll speak about how it should be changed, I’ll promote changing it.

But sometimes I eat a burger and love it. Should I stop promoting the change? Does promoting the change make me a hypocrite?

Can you see the parallel. Some football players harbor some racist ideas, but it doesn’t mean they can’t aspire to ending racist and doing better themselves!

 

[LV426]

Nope. More lack of understanding on your part. Trump did not cancel any primaries. State law provides for canceling some primaries if there is no competition. The primaries were cancelled because state law required it.

I said Trump and the GOP would try to cancel the election.

Again, you think you have a gotcha but what you really have is sloppiness and pettiness because you're a fucking piece of shit with terrible judgment.

 

[Flash]

Stop stealing my lines unless you're gonna pay me royalties.

Way back, you invoked your wife in the discussion about institutional racism, which you said doesn't exist, and the evidence you presented was the anecdotal "discrimination" your "wife" faced, which was "more than [I'll] ever know".

I guess that is literally the case because you won't share any details.

So you made a claim about your wife in an attempt to undermine the argument about institutional racism, but you didn't bother to verify the claim and any attempts to get specifics about the claim result in you hiding and stalling.

So what conclusion am I supposed to draw from that?

You are supposed to draw the conclusion that nobody wants to provide you any truthful information because you will claim it is a lie unless it supports your political views.

And, I get tired of looking at my notifications and seeing the entire page covered in your posts to me arguing the same points endlessly. That is the reason you were on ignore.

 

[LV426]

The election was not cancelled which was my main point from the start. Dramatic predictions are interesting but seldom occur (like red waves).

Right, I said they would TRY TO cancel it.

You left out the "try to" because you wanted to drag me down to your poor level of judgment.

So you wanted to pull a post out of context to try and make yourself look better by dragging me down.

The problem is that you didn't come with receipts...I did.

So once again, I had to do your work for you because you're too lazy and sloppy to do it yourself.

It’s pretty obvious that I did not say racist results are OK, why are you so desperate to put words in my mouth? Look back at my post, I did address your issue in an edited version. I did not ignore it, Intentionally, I was simply having lunch.

 

[LV426]

Lame argument. You don't want to admit you claimed Trump would cancel the election and using whether time is linear doesn't change the fact that you posted it.

Lame argument? You're trying to rip one post out of the context of dozens in order to paint a false picture of my judgment after your shitty judgment was totally upended by all the recent events that you assured us would never happen.

Again, is time linear Flash? Yes or no?
