How did this get from a discussion about neo-progressivism/progressives to another OAW racist one?

Yeah, just ignore what I said pumpkin, it's better that way.

I don't care what you, or anyone else, reads into that, it's not their intent to look like the Klan, unless you're going to say that anyone who has ever dressed as a ghost with a bedsheet is trying to be racist. I'd advise you, and others who have decided to get offended, to get the **** over it.

It's really all he thinks about. (Yet, somehow we're the racist ones.)

I'm not the one ignoring the point. Quite obviously. But you do you.

Of course you don't.

Oh so NOWHERE in this thread has the topic of racism on college campuses come up? And those of you and CTP's mindset sought to dismiss it out of hand? I'm just pulling this topic out of my ass JUST NOW? Really! The two of you haven't had all kinds of sh*t to say about any and everything minorities have had to say about their experiences on predominantly white campuses? Shall I show and prove? Not that I expect either of you to acknowledge proof in black and white because you are both quite predictable like that. But for the sake of those who are casually following the thread ... do you really want to challenge me on this? Or just keep it moving? Your choice.

Challenge you? Challenge? You? You? Go stir your racism and outrage elsewhere. If you think most of society isn't sick of that shit (and the whining going along w/ it), you're grossly mistaken.

Don't sheet-based ghost costumes usually come well below the neck?
I have plenty of more important things to do, if only I could bring myself to do them....

YOU are a "Johnny ONE NOTE" where all you do is thrash about your race. Get over it. Grow Up. There are lots of more productive thing you might be able to think about. The only way it comes up is YOU bringing it up every chance you get. Its beyond tiresome at this point. Perhaps this is ALL you have to offer? Pathetic.

For the record, I didn't even comment in this sorry ass thread of yours until YOU made this post:

Students demand Thomas Jefferson statue removed from university, call him 'racist rapist' - The College Fix

Welcome to the Progressive States of America.
So let's be clear here ....
  1. YOU introduced the topic of "racism on campus". At the University of Missouri which is in my neck of the woods at that!
  2. YOU were the "whining" about an African-American grad student having the unmitigated gall to have a problem with a Thomas Jefferson statue on the Mizzou campus when the man kept slaves.
  3. My very first post in this thread was in response to YOU dumbass.

And so we went back and forth on the entire Thomas Jefferson tangent. But wait it gets worse! Then you got your panties all in a wad about the situation at Yale ....

And again I responded to YOU because you were all angry that black students weren't cool with dumb sh*t like this on campus at Halloween parties ...



You even broke out the emoticon and everything! I mean it's right there in black and white. YOU initiated this topic of discussion. But true to form you and others continue to demonstrate that reading comprehension and following the sequence of events isn't really your strong suit when stupid sh*t gets posted like this:

Naturally, the only way one can twist their lips to say something so demonstrably false is to overlook your post I cited above and their own comments ....

Selective reading again OAW? Double standard much, or perhaps you don't think they are racists spewing hate?
If any of these individuals were even remotely involved in the situation at hand then this might warrant comment. Since they don't I view it as mere deflection. At best.

OAW
So even though BadKosh baited me twice ... I let it go because his "Libs ad Dems!" caliber of right-wing bumper sticker commentary doesn't generally warrant a response. It was only when he decided to up the ante with this ....

The "average to lower IQ blacks" are really the issue as they follow liberal BS, and indoctrination, and have become WORTHLESS in the job market.
... that I even engaged him in any sort of substantive manner. Again ... in RESPONSE to where he took the discussion. But of course, in the delusional minds of CTP and BadKosh ... OAW is the one who introduced issues of race into this thread. Documented proof to the contrary otherwise.

In any event, let me be clear on this note for both CTP and BadKosh. You can call me whatever you want. But I'll talk about whatever the hell I want to talk about around here. If you don't like it then there's an Ignore button at your disposal. But do please stop whining like a little b*tch. It's embarrassing.

Oh noes! That Halloween costume (seriously, a Halloween costume?) hurts my fee-fees! That statue (of someone who lived centuries ago) is of a founding father who was associated with slavery! (Something no blacks in this country have ever experienced.) Halloween costumes and long-dead presidents of an entirely different era? Gosh, those poor little cherubs, how will they ever survive in their educationally diverse Ivy League schools?

So, you think you're oppressed, while you sit in your comfortable chair, typing on your expensive computer, communicating via a system that allows you to connect with virtually anyone in the world, while waiting for the clock to reach 5pm so you can get started on your restful and leisurely weekend in the wealthiest nation in the world... I get it. You'll continue feeling the scourge of oppression until everyone thinks, behaves, and desires what you want, in the way you want, and it had better be right now, or else. "All we have to lose is our chains!" said the very wealthy, hyper-privileged son of a Fortune 500 executive. What a terrible burden.

Ladies and gentlemen, I present you OAW, representative of the Regressive Collective. Conform or be mobbed by cry bullies, the tyranny of the vocal minority. (and whiny man-child of ultimate privilege.)

OAW, you STILL display your low IQ racist BS, and just can't get past it. It proves my point. I think you are not as wonderful as you assume you are, but are a typical black racist who can't get past the racist part of your identity. You sure don't post anything but crap to show your side, however full of BS and ignorance you want to display. You prove the premise that blacks are inferior,and see everything as stereotypes as racist as they are and can't get past it. you are pathetic.

And we're done.

This is why we can't have nice discussions. People stop discussing and start calling names. So no more.
