Open question for Lit Deplorables: how has your racism influenced you?

[FelHarper]

Flush out the excuse-makers like you who passively facillitate racism and insurrection.

That’s not an end and that’s not what is being done here. “Flushing out” means exposing someone’s hidden motives or agenda, often to discredit them. What Rory is actually attempting is to enforce intellectual conformity. This can work if you apply psychological and social pressure, as in a struggle session. Besides the fact that such tactics are morally abhorrent, in the context of an anonymous forum, the only thing you do is to distract and polarize.

You’ve also added an accusation that I “passively facilitate racism and insurrection”. Yet again, this is an attempt to enforce conformity, demanding that each person pick a side as though we are at war. It is anti-rational nonsense, and you must realize it.

 

[FelHarper]

You don't help people? Maybe it is you that is the problem.

I think you might have misunderstood. Would you like me to explain in simpler terms?

 

[FelHarper]

And yet you were triggered enough to post in my thread despite this.

Don’t trivialize and mock people who have experienced emotional trauma, you a list bigot.

I always bait the boring idiots; you're #746. Thanks for playing, alt!

Yes, you are doing a good job.

Cry us a river, triggered loser.

Yes, you are doing a good job.

You're admitting you're one? That's a good start!

 

[FelHarper]

True to your principles.

You're admitting you're one? That's a good start!

Did it ever occur to you to not be an asshole?

Regarding the bolded portions of what you have stated, yes, we are flushing out people whose agenda is to deny that the MAGA movement is tearing this country apart. Contrary to right-wing denialists, this is not a "both sides" issue. If you don't like the social pressure of citizens actively resisting the fact that the MAGA movement is the most polarizing movement since the Confederate secession, then don't get involved in the major political discussion of our era. We don't believe that there are "very fine people" in white supremacy organizations, nor do we believe the myth that insurrection is protected under the First Amendment.

And yes, some of us do demand that people take a stand against insurrection. Trying to overturn the results of an election that has been certified by all of the states and repeatedly confirmed by the judicial system is indeed an act of war.
What's anti-rational is to deny that this autocratic movement is happening. We have the right and the responsibility to stand up to MAGA bullies. They are being prosecuted in the courts right now throughout this nation. Claiming that this is simply an attempt to enforce intellectual conformity is absurd.

Bingo.

We have the right and the responsibility to stand up to MAGA bullies.

Yup.

 

[FelHarper]

And so you “stand up” to “MAGA bullies” with cheap rhetorical tricks that promote anti-rational groupthink. This is what happens when you stop viewing human beings as human and start seeing them as a mere means.

Lighten up, Francis. If you can't take some written heat for spreading the myth that the MAGA cultists are the real victims here, then stay out of the kitchen. We will continue to use our freedom of speech to criticise the MAGA movement no matter how much you wag your finger.

Consider this a gift certificate for a case of Kleenex.

 

[Bn2f]

You libtards disgust me with your self righteous bullying!
You guys use to be discreet meanies but Biden/Harris have allowed you to come out the woodwork and be more open with your hate.
This kind hearted man is patiently appealing for common decency be given to his humanity and that consideration be given to those on the right that you disagree with and all you do is grabbim by the balls and tell him to Go Fuck His Feelings.
It’s like you don’t even view him as an American simply because he has a different political view than you.
So sad.

What's worse is I don't even view Putin as an American.

I've been thoroughly shamed. I need ro keep a more open mind about the Grand Old Party and their leaders.

I expressed nothing of the kind. My reason for responding was simply disgust for the tactics of Rory’s original post. You chose to attack and insult me. If you are going to use the words “hate” and “bully” in your complaints about the conduct of others, don’t be surprised when people point out to you how hollow your claims ring.

We will continue to use our freedom of speech to criticise the MAGA movement no matter how much you wag your finger.

You aren’t criticizing. Criticism means finding fault and error. You have shown that you are here to insult and defame. You act like a sociopath.

Are you trying to say that fault and error has not been shown/proven about the MAGA poster(s) on the PB?

So sorry to have violated safe space for the protection of the GOP insurrection movement.

So, you got triggered by the truth, snowflake? Was it not politically correct enough for you? Aw.

Can you calm down your diaper-baby tantrum long enough to answer the original question posed?

(Of course not.)

 

[FelHarper]

By asking how racism has influenced you? No. That’s a stupid rhetorical trick.

 

[FelHarper]

Boring non-sequitur nonsense, sociopath. It has nothing to do with offending me, and everything to do with being a self-contradiction. You don’t get to complain about people acting like assholes by acting like an asshole.

 

[FelHarper]

So, you got triggered by the truth, snowflake? Was it not politically correct enough for you? Aw.

Truth?! You ask the equivalent of “have you stopped beating your wife?” and try to represent that as anything but nonsensical social manipulation?

Can you calm down your diaper-baby tantrum long enough to answer the original question posed?

(Of course not.)

And more rhetorical nonsense. Address the God damned fact, you ignorant weasel, that you are pointlessly stirring up shit because it makes you feel important.

 

[RoryN]

You seem upset.

 

[Dribble]

Lol....he is stirring up shit because it works

 

[FelHarper]

You seem upset.

“You mad, bro?” Is that all you can muster? You certainly aren’t doing much to defend your own behavior. Yeah, self-righteous stupidity tends to piss people off.

 

[FelHarper]

Lol....he is stirring up shit because it works

He’s showing his ass over and over.

 

[coati]

Apparently, now that there are some 91 indictments against a former Republican President who incited an insurrection and stated that white supremacist protesters were very fine people, his supporters are suddenly insisting on rational discourse.

That may reemerge after all the prosecutions have been completed. Seeking safe space on a political board during this era is a fool's errand. Would you like some cheese with your whine?

 

[RoryN]

You certainly aren’t doing much to defend your own behavior.

Because there's nothing to defend, Deplorable.

(BTW, why are you double-posting? You really don't know how to multi-quote in a forum? LOL)

Right? It's hilarious!

Sorry you feel that way. So you don't agree that Racism has an influence,or affects people?

Are you really claiming it's just a trick?

I'd have thought you might bring a higher brow of intellect to the thread, but I guess I'm mistaken.
