This is what's so hilarious. It's the liberals who make everything about race. My comments have been completely race neutral, yet here we have the usual suspects trying to contort what I'm saying into a racist attack. This is why the PC left is so intellectually bankrupt and why the assault upon them by the alt right has been so successful and will continue to be so.


None of the liberals here brought up race. Your friend GG did. To be fair Plansix gets baited pretty easily and then it just rolled from there.

If you are going to accuse people of doing something get your facts in order.

People brought up race instantly saying that he wanted to call the rioters monkeys but couldn't beacuse then people would know hes a racist what are you talking about.

Yep. This situation is a good example of why I try to limit my interactions with people who fail at basic reading comprehension. It just isn't productive.


You must be so proud of your trolling here. You used the term 'vermin' specifically so that there would be a flame war on it. That's kind of childish for a smart guy, but hey, whatever.


What trolling? Who is going to disagree with the proposition that looters and rioters are vermin? I honestly don't give a fuck what race they are. I can't help it if you guys want to make the conversation about race instead of law and order. That's your prerogative, even if it means exposing some very ugly and unpleasant truths about some of your values.

Yes, but HE brought it up. No one was talking about race until his little tantrum. Up until then everything was race neutral.


I suggest you go reread like I did because you're still confused about the fact that I didn't bring up race

Stop spreading lies; it's deplorable


I did, this is the first instance of race I can find in the discussion since it was raised..

White man getting beat up but should be happy he didn't get shot? Seriously?


It was a joke, a deliberately bad one. My followup to that comment should have made it obvious. Maybe if you didnt flare up and read the entire thing...

Sometimes the line between a joke in very bad taste and the serious assertion really gets blurred here. I know people here would believe a white man would be more likely to be beat up in a police encounter than shot compared to someone of darker skin. Aside: I wouldn't demand his firing over it.

Oh thread, never change

strawman and lie about what was actually said and done to look better?

par for the course.

improvement happens when you act better than the other side.

As always: Name calling =/= dehumanizing. Vermin was used because monkeys would be a little to telling.


It's okay to dehumanize Trump voters but not criminals

got it.

Hi,

Deplorable means they're shitty humans. Humans who you deplore. Deploring is a thing a human does towards an act, actor or human created state of affairs which they condemn as being contrary to good or moral conduct. Nobody ever called a bad dog deplorable, I think sentience, either of the deplorable individual or of the people who allowed the deplorable thing, is probably a prerequisite because without it you can't really act in a shitty way. There is an implicit moral judgement there.

Vermin means non human parasitic creatures which need to be exterminated. If you're at the point where you're calling black people vermin something has probably gone wrong. Which it has in the cause of xDaunt. He has clearly lost the plot since Trump became candidate.

Deplorable recognizes the central humanity of the people who are deplorable or who are doing the deplorable things or who created the deplorable conditions by essentially arguing that they should know better. Rats don't come in good or evil, rats just come in rats, you just poison them.

Now we got to make the case that calling a group of human beings a "basket of deplorables" is dehumanizing? You say the only measure to be met is simply acknowledging a moral aspect of any kind. This is the language going to shit. Back when I learned the word, only actions and behaviors could be said to be deplorable, because humans ought not be portrayed with that wide brush, being capable of moral action beyond the dehumanizing insult.
Great armies come from happy zealots, and happy zealots come from California!

If you get mad when I call someone a monkey because they happen to be black then you're the fucking racist.

Why is it so hard to come to terms with the fact that my judgment is not racially motivated. The video of these people showed them acting like monkeys. It doesn't matter what color their skin are to me, what matters is how they acted.

What matters to you is their skin color.

Welcome to the real world, where you can't call black people monkeys and not be called a racist.

There's nothing logical or rational about dictating if you call someone a 'monkey' then it's immediately racist, but only under the caveat that they are black. It's an entirely emotional, and ironically racist in itself, conclusion

I suppose if the person wanted to operate from the position that they were a ignorant moron, there may be nothing racist about it.

You're calling black people monkeys. I'm saying that calling black people monkeys and your conclusion is that I'm the racist because how could I possibly infer what you mean deep down in your soul just from the fact that you call black people monkeys, clearly I must be projecting. Welcome to 2016 people.


I'm calling people monkeys.

People who happen to be acting violently and criminally. People assaulting someone and acting like monkeys as they do it.

The fact that they are black is relevant to you, not to me. That is the definition of racism.

Not that it matters but I'll say it again. On a weekly basis I see someone acting like a moron and think to myself how much they're acting like a fucking monkey. More often than not this is a white person I am thinking of.

Everyone knows xDaunt and ggtemplar have used the words vermin and monkeys to refer to police officers who kill people unnecessarily. And other non-black criminals who have been brought up. They are just being consistent here.

Just own it, I'd respect you more.

There is nothing to own. My ultimate point goes to law and order -- not race. My problem with BLM is not that it is (in the most charitable terms possible) a black rights advocacy group. My problem with it is that it's a militant, lawless organization (to the extent that it is organized) that causes real death and destruction.

When a racist person calls a black man a monkey, he's refering to the idea that black people aren't really human, they're not really of the same species. He's also projecting the image that black people kind of look like monkeys to him cause, you know, black people are black, and monkeys are black (very sophisticated as you can see). There is a vast history on associating black people and monkeys in racist circles.

Meanwhile, when you call a white person a monkey, you're not refering to any particular history of racism. Which is why it's not generally viewed as racist.

So yeah, you're right, a double standard exists. It's there to address the fact that the two standards are different.

There's nothing logical or rational about dictating if you call someone a 'monkey' then it's immediately racist, but only under the caveat that they are black. It's an entirely emotional, and ironically racist in itself, conclusion


I suppose if the person wanted to operate from the position that they were a ignorant moron, there may be nothing racist about it.

This is what's so hilarious. It's the liberals who make everything about race. My comments have been completely race neutral, yet here we have the usual suspects trying to contort what I'm saying into a racist attack. This is why the PC left is so intellectually bankrupt and why the assault upon them by the alt right has been so successful and will continue to be so.


None of the liberals here brought up race. Your friend GG did. To be fair Plansix gets baited pretty easily and then it just rolled from there.

If you are going to accuse people of doing something get your facts in order.

People brought up race instantly saying that he wanted to call the rioters monkeys but couldn't beacuse then people would know hes a racist what are you talking about.

Yep. This situation is a good example of why I try to limit my interactions with people who fail at basic reading comprehension. It just isn't productive.


You must be so proud of your trolling here. You used the term 'vermin' specifically so that there would be a flame war on it. That's kind of childish for a smart guy, but hey, whatever.


What trolling? Who is going to disagree with the proposition that looters and rioters are vermin? I honestly don't give a fuck what race they are. I can't help it if you guys want to make the conversation about race instead of law and order. That's your prerogative, even if it means exposing some very ugly and unpleasant truths about some of your values.


Bruh...

where BLM is wreaking havoc


Just own it, I'd respect you more.

There is nothing to own. My ultimate point goes to law and order -- not race. My problem with BLM is not that it is (in the most charitable terms possible) a black rights advocacy group. My problem with it is that it's a militant, lawless organization (to the extent that it is organized) that causes real death and destruction.

I hear Nixon made the same argument about being the law and order guy. He was talking about cracking down on “urban communities filled with blacks and lefties” but he was all about that Law and Order.

I'm not dehumanizing black people I'm calling criminals acting like animals criminals acting like animals

If you call me a racist asshole I don't give a shit because you're wrong. I'm not a racist any more than any rational thinking, educated human being

If you get mad when I call someone a monkey because they happen to be black then you're the fucking racist.

Why is it so hard to come to terms with the fact that my judgment is not racially motivated. The video of these people showed them acting like monkeys. It doesn't matter what color their skin are to me, what matters is how they acted.

What matters to you is their skin color.

You are the racist, not me.

Welcome to the real world, where you can't call black people monkeys and not be called a racist.

So now that you are no longer ignorant, you are going to stop because you now know its racist?

Everyone knows xDaunt and ggtemplar have used the words vermin and monkeys to refer to police officers who kill people unnecessarily. And other non-black criminals who have been brought up. They are just being consistent here.


Of course not, as you know, police officers aren't acting like monkeys when they do that, it's a very subtle difference.

You're calling black people monkeys. I'm saying that calling black people monkeys and your conclusion is that I'm the racist because how could I possibly infer what you mean deep down in your soul just from the fact that you call black people monkeys, clearly I must be projecting. Welcome to 2016 people.


I'm calling people monkeys.

People who just happen to be black. But that's not in any way to do with it. How could anyone possibly infer anything from the fact that you call black people you look down on monkeys. Nobody knows what's in your heart and if we don't know what's in your heart then we can't possibly call you a racist because you're offended by that.

At this point, I don't think any more exposure is necessary. The cesspool of values is on bright display.

When do we get Obama spending two minutes denouncing violence and twenty minutes both justifying the underlying hate and attacking the deplorables in society?

Yes, but HE brought it up. No one was talking about race until his little tantrum. Up until then everything was race neutral.


I suggest you go reread like I did because you're still confused about the fact that I didn't bring up race

Stop spreading lies; it's deplorable


I did, this is the first instance of race I can find in the discussion since it was raised..

Hopefully this is enough for you to stop lying that I somehow brought race to it when it race/racism was already being discussed by multiple people


None of those comments asserts that it was racist behavior. They were all descriptive. Because thats actually what happened. A bunch of black people beat up a white man. What did you want them to say ?

"X bad people attacked y person ?" None of that is particularly racially charged.

I still disagree that race was a big component of the discussion until you flared up about it. And again none of those people even close to suggested that it was ok. Which is also what you flared up about.

The main component of the discussion was dont call people vermin period.

Well we can very easily answer that.

We can go on youtube and watch comments on videos where white people riot.

We can go on youtube and watch comments on videos where black people riot.

Then we can do a quick comparative search of how many times terms like 'vermin' and 'monkey' are used in both samples.

Do you want to take this journey with me?


Go for it.

It's irrelevant to me because I'm not like most people. I'm very unique.

You could even call me a special snowflake if you wanted to show some ironic humor

Right, it's that you fail to realize if the police stop being such a group as you describe, there wouldn't even be a BLM.

I hear Nixon made the same argument about being the law and order guy. He was talking about cracking down on “urban communities filled with blacks and lefties” but he was all about that Law and Order.

Let's write a letter to NBC that all those TV shows are racist forever thanks to Nixon. Just like how Hitler liked Wagner so now it's verboten.
